“…We identified 24 publications for the main analysis (Figure 1); 13 of which were from the previous review [37–39, 44–53], and 11 new studies from 2004 [40–42, 54–61]. Two additional studies in LMI countries (Chile [26] and Brazil [25]), and 5 studies on juvenile prisoners (mean age: 16.7 years) were examined separately (Appendix C) [27–31].…”

Substance use disorders in prisoners: an updated systematic review and meta‐regression analysis in recently incarcerated men and women

2017

AimsThe aims were to (1) estimate the prevalence of alcohol and drug use disorders in prisoners on reception to prison and (2) estimate and test sources of between study heterogeneity.MethodsStudies reporting the 12‐month prevalence of alcohol and drug use disorders in prisoners on reception to prison from 1 January 1966 to 11 August 2015 were identified from seven bibliographic indexes. Primary studies involving clinical interviews or validated instruments leading to DSM or ICD diagnoses were included; self‐report surveys and investigations that assessed individuals more than 3 months after arrival to prison were not. Random‐effects meta‐analysis and subgroup and meta‐regression analyses were conducted. Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta‐Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were followed.ResultsIn total, 24 studies with a total of 18 388 prisoners across 10 countries were identified. The random‐effects pooled prevalence estimate of alcohol use disorder was 24% [95% confidence interval (CI) = 21–27], with very high heterogeneity (I 2 = 94%). These ranged from 16 to 51% in male and 10–30% in female prisoners. For drug use disorders, there was evidence of heterogeneity by sex, and the pooled prevalence estimate in male prisoners was 30% (95% CI = 22–38; I 2 = 98%; 13 studies; range 10–61%) and, in female prisoners, was 51% (95% CI = 43–58; I 2 = 95%; 10 studies; range 30–69%). On meta‐regression, sources of heterogeneity included higher prevalence of drug use disorders in women, increasing rates of drug use disorders in recent decades, and participation rate.ConclusionsSubstance use disorders are highly prevalent in prisoners. Approximately a quarter of newly incarcerated prisoners of both sexes had an alcohol use disorder, and the prevalence of a drug use disorder was at least as high in men, and higher in women.

“…Four studies included both sentenced and remand prisoners (total n = 1910; 25%) (mixed studies). Two surveys (1220 prisoners) [18,69] were published before 1990. Prisoners in the included studies were primarily from the United States (6635 prisoners; 88%) [18,19,21,22,69–73], with the remainder being from the United Kingdom (548 prisoners; 7%) [4], Ireland (280 prisoners) [20,74] and New Zealand (100 prisoners) [75].…”

“…There were a number of different sampling techniques used. Some studies used simple random sampling (2310 prisoners) [19,20,70,71,74], some used stratified random sampling (2000 prisoners) [21,22] and others used the inclusion of all consecutive new receptions into prison (2448 prisoners) [4,18,69,72,73,75]. One study used a combination of these techniques (805 prisoners) [19].…”

“…However, the majority featured trained interviewers using validated, structured instruments. Instruments used included the Structured Clinical Interview for the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (380 prisoners) [73], the Diagnostic Interview Schedule (5550 prisoners) [18,21,22,69–72,75], the Schedule for Clinical Assessment in Neuropsychiatry (45 prisoners) [20] and the Composite International Diagnostic Interview (805 prisoners) [19].…”

“…Seven surveys of alcohol abuse/dependence in men included a total of 4141 prisoners [4,21,22,69,71,73–75]. Prevalence estimates of alcohol abuse/dependence in male prisoners ranged from 17.7 to 30.0%, with much heterogeneity among these estimates (χ 2 6 = 43.5, P < 0.001; I 2 = 86%).…”

Substance abuse and dependence in prisoners: a systematic review

2006

The prevalence of substance abuse and dependence, although highly variable, is typically many orders of magnitude higher in prisoners than the general population, particularly for women with drug problems. This highlights the need for screening for substance abuse and dependence at reception into prison, effective treatment while in custody, and follow-up on release. Specialist addiction services for prisoners have the potential to make a considerable impact.
