Abstract:
Objective: To estimate the prevalence of alcohol use disorders (AUD), and associated factors, among individualsthe Brazilian population who reported chronic diseases (CD), mental health disorders (MID) and infectious diseases (ID).Method: Secondary analysis using datathe III National Survey on Drug Use by the Brazilian Population. The main outcome was the presence of AUD. The prevalence of AUD was estimated in 3 subgroups: individuals who reported CD, MHD and ID Logistic regression models were performed to assess the factors associated with AUD within each group.
Results: Of the 15,645 adults interviewed, 30.5% (95% CI: 29.4-31.5) reported CD, 17.6% (95% CI: 16.5-18.7) MHD and 1,6% (95% CI: 1.2-1.9) ID. Considering comorbidities, the analytical sample was n=6,612. No statistically significant difference was found in the prevalence of ART between individuals with CD (7.5% (95%CI:6.1-8.7)), MHD (8.4% (95%CI 6.7-10, 2)) and ID (12.4% (95%CI:7.0-17.8)). The main factors associated with ART, in all groups, were being male and young.
Conclusions: Considering the high prevalence of ART in all groups, its systematic screening is necessary in health services caring for individuals with CD, MHD and ID.
