“…Interestingly, this does not hold true for mice, who have several neuropathological differences after SCI when compared to rats. Mice have limited cyst formation, reduced glial scar formation and diminished blood-spinal cord barrier disruption after SCI [14]. Other sources of error may result from the frequent use of young, female adults that are healthy, unintoxicated and injured at the thoracic, rather than cervical level.…”

“…Concentration of microtubule associated protein tau in urine and saliva was a potential biomarker of traumatic brain injury [ 2 ]. Binge drinking and alcohol dependence are raised over the general population at the time of SCI [ 3 ]. A high prevalence of alcohol use has been documented among post-injury SCI persons, limited research exists on alcohol use and on longitudinal studies [ 4 ].…”

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating disorder. Alcohol abuse has been recognized as hindering SCI patients from rehabilitation, thus leading to longer length of days and poorer prognosis. This article aimed to investigate the association between spinal cord injury (SCI) and alcohol dependence. Data were derived from the National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD). The incidence of alcohol dependence between SCI and non-SCI groups was compared. Other possible risk factors were also analyzed. Patients (N = 5670) with SCI from 2000 to 2009 were initially assessed for eligibility. After propensity score matching, 5639 first-time SCI survivors were included. The Cox proportional hazard regression model was used to assess differences in the incidence of alcohol dependence syndrome. Based on the adjusted hazard ratios (HR), the SCI group had a higher hazard for alcohol dependence syndrome compared to the non-SCI group (adjusted HR: 1.39, 95% CI: 1.03~1.86, p = 0.0305). The injury level did not have an impact on the incidence of alcohol dependence syndrome. A higher incidence of alcohol dependence syndrome was related to male patients, lower insurance levels, higher Deyo’s CCI, and psychiatric OPD times. A lower incidence of alcohol dependence syndrome was related to elder age. The incidence of alcohol dependence increased after the occurrence of SCI and was also related to age, sex, monthly income, comorbidities, and psychiatric problems. The injury level did not affect the incidence of alcohol dependence after SCI.

Changes in alcohol use after the onset of spinal cord injury

Abstract: Alcohol use and binge drinking are elevated over the general population at the time of injury. Drinking patterns reflect a decrease following injury but remain slightly elevated, signifying a need for interventions to minimize long-term health consequences.
