Washington DC Metropolitan Area Drug Study Household and Non-Household Populations (DC-MADSH-1991)

<p>The DC Metropolitan Area Drug Study (DC<em>MADS) was<br />
conducted in 1991, and included special analyses of homeless and<br />
transient populations and of women delivering live births in the DC<br />
hospitals. DC</em>MADS was undertaken to assess the full extent of the<br />
drug problem in one metropolitan area. The study was comprised of 16<br />
separate studies that focused on different sub-groups, many of which<br />
are typically not included or are under-represented in household<br />
surveys.The DC<em>MADS: Household and Non-household Populations<br />
examines the prevalence of tobacco, alcohol, and drug use among<br />
members of household and non-household populations aged 12 and older<br />
in the District of Columbia Metropolitan Statistical Area (DC<br />
MSA). The study also examines the characteristics of three<br />
drug-abusing sub-groups: crack-cocaine, heroin, and needle users. The<br />
household sample was drawn from the 1991 National Household Survey on<br />
Drug Abuse (NHSDA). The non-household sample was drawn from the<br />
DC</em>MADS Institutionalized and Homeless and Transient Population<br />
Studies. Data include demographics, needle use, needle-sharing, and<br />
use of tobacco, alcohol, cocaine, crack, inhalants, marijuana, hallucinogens, heroin, sedatives, stimulants, psychotherapeutics (non-medical use), tranquilizers, and analgesics.This study has 1 Data Set.</p>

《华盛顿特区都会区药物研究》（DC<em>MADS）于1991年开展，旨在对无家可归者和流动人群，以及于华盛顿特区医院分娩的妇女进行专项分析。该研究旨在评估一个都会区药物问题的全面状况。DC<em>MADS 由16项独立研究组成，这些研究聚焦于不同的子群体，其中许多子群体在家庭调查中通常未得到充分体现或代表性不足。DC<em>MADS：家庭与非家庭人口研究调查了在哥伦比亚特区都会区统计区域（DC MSA）内，12岁及以上家庭和非家庭人口中烟草、酒精和药物使用的普遍性。研究还考察了三种药物滥用子群体的特征：可卡因、海洛因和注射吸毒者。家庭样本来自1991年的全国药物滥用家庭调查（NHSDA）。非家庭样本则来自DC<em>MADS的机构化与无家可归及流动人群研究。数据包括人口统计学信息、注射使用、注射共用、以及烟草、酒精、可卡因、可卡因烟、吸入剂、大麻、致幻剂、海洛因、镇静剂、兴奋剂、心理治疗药物（非医疗用途）、安定剂和镇痛剂的使用情况。本研究包含1个数据集。》
