Expansion of HCV treatment access to people who have injected drugs through effective translation of research into public health policy
Seven years have elapsed since the Scottish Government launched its Hepatitis C Action Plan - a Plan to improve services to prevent transmission of infection, particularly among people who inject drugs (PWID), identify those infected and ensure those infected receive optimal treatment. The Plan was underpinned by industrial scale funding (around £100 million, in addition to the general NHS funding, will have been invested by 2015), and a web of a…
Interventions to prevent HIV and Hepatitis C in people who inject drugs
Association between harm reduction intervention uptake and recent hepatitis C infection among people who inject drugs attending sites that provide sterile injecting equipment in Scotland
P1-44 Application of a novel method to estimate incidence of hepatitis C among injecting drug users in Scotland
Background Prevalence of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) among injecting drug users (IDUs) in Scotland is high. Through an HCV Action Plan, the Scottish Government has invested significantly in harm reduction interventions with the goal of reducing HCV transmission among IDUs. In evaluating the effectiveness of interventions, estimates of the incidence, rather than the prevalence, of HCV are essential. The traditional approach to measuring incidence—…
Differences between injectors and non-injectors, and a high prevalence of benzodiazepines among drug related deaths in Scotland 2003
Drug related deaths (DRDs) have been increasing in Scotland over at least the past decade. This study aimed to describe the characteristics (gender, age, ICD10 cause of death), toxicology and circumstances of all Scotland's DRDs in 2003 to help inform a national overdose prevention strategy. Coronial files for 300/317 (95%) DRDs registered with the General Register Office for Scotland (GROS) in 2003 were examined retrospectively (in 2004). Charac…

Behavioural and Lifestyle Study of Women Using a Drop-In Centre for Female Street Sex Workers in Glasgow, Scotland
The study compared street sex workers' working patterns, sexual behaviour, drug use, and knowledge of HIV and Hepatitis C, in 1999 (114 women) to those in 1989 (63 women) among women who used a Drop-in Centre (DIC) for female sex workers in Glasgow's “red light district”. The vast majority of prostitutes in both cohorts were drug users, although a significantly greater proportion of women in 1999 used drugs (95%) than in 1989 (83%). It appears th…
Women Drug Users
The book provides an account of the lives and experiences of a group of female intravenous drug users in Glasgow. Based on participant observations of the women in their own setting and in-depth interviews, it is the first full ethnographic account of the lifestyle of female drug users. It charts their entry into drugs, the various ways in which they provide for their drug use, their relationships with friends, partners, family members, and child…
Tideline and Turn
This is an early report of data from an on-going, repeated, cross-sectional study of a community sample of Glasgow injecting drug users. Although HIV was first detected among Glasgow's drug injectors in 1985, data from the first two years of our annual samples (1990 and 1991) indicate that HIV prevalence continues to be low in this population, in the order of 1 or 2 per cent. Possible reasons for this apparent continuing low prevalence are examin…
