Sexual Assault Is the Biggest Risk Factor for Violence against Women in Taiwan—A Nationwide Population Cohort Study from 2000 to 2015
Objective: To understand the main types of risk of violence against women in Taiwan. Materials and methods: This study used the outpatient, emergency, and hospitalization data of 2 million people in the National Health Insurance sample from 2000 to 2015. The International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision diagnostic N-codes 995.5 (child abuse) and 995.8 (adult abuse) or E-codes E960−E969 (homicide and intentional injury by others) were d…
Association of Postpartum Depression with Maternal Suicide
PPD was associated with a significantly higher rate of suicide and a shorter time to suicide after childbirth. Younger age, winter, and subclinical depression and anxiety positively predicted suicide in the study cohort. To prevent maternal suicide, clinicians should be observant of subclinical depression and anxiety symptoms among patients
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Effect of Nonapnea Sleep Disorder on the Risk of Obesity
Objectives: To investigate whether chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) affects nonapnea sleep disorder (NASD) on the risk of obesity. Materials and Methods: From 1 January 2000 to 31 December 2015, a total of 24,363 patients with obesity from the 2005 Longitudinal Health Insurance Database were identified; 97,452 patients without obesity were also identified from the same database. Multiple logistic regression was used to analyze the pre…
Trends in Homicide Hospitalization and Mortality in Taiwan, 1998–2015
In Taiwan, the national research on homicide is rare, mostly discussing the issue of child abuse. We sought to better understand the characteristics and risk factors of homicide through a retrospective cohort study from 1998 to 2015. "Child battering and other maltreatment" ranked first for the 0-4 age group and second for the 5-14 age group. The hospital mortality was 511 deaths. We found that the 25-44 age group had the highest risk and account…
Relationship between Injuries and Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
Age, cause of injuries, low-income household status, and school season all have a significant connection to the risk of injury for ADHD children
Segregating Suspected Child Maltreatment from Non-Child Maltreatment Injuries
Objective: To identify the differential patient characteristics, injury types, and treatment outcomes between hospitalized child abuse and non-child abuse injuries in Taiwan. Methods: Using the data from the National Health Insurance Research Database, we selected a total of 1525 patients under the age of 18 that were diagnosed with child abuse, as well as an additional 6100 patients as a comparison group. Chi-square test, Fisher exact test, and …
Exposure of Child Maltreatment Leads to a Risk of Mental Illness and Poor Prognosis in Taiwan
Objective: To investigate whether children with maltreatment exposure were associated with the risk of psychiatric disorders, suicide, and death. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted, with 1592 child maltreatment cases and 6368 comparison cohort (1:4) matched for gender, age, and index year, from the Longitudinal Generation Tracking Database (LGTD2000) sampled from Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD) in 2000,…
Effect of Obstructive Sleep Apnea on the Risk of Injuries—A Nationwide Population-Based Cohort Study
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been reported to increase the risk of motor vehicle accidents. However, only few studies have investigated the effects of OSA on overall risk injury. The aim of study is to investigate whether OSA increases the risk of overall injury. The data were collected during 2000-2015 from Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database. A total of 8901 individuals diagnosed with OSA were inpatients, or outpatients at…
