Prevalence of comorbid substance use, anxiety and mood disorders in epidemiological surveys, 1990–2014: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Open accessAbstract
Background Comorbidity is highly prevalent between substance use disorders (SUDs), mood and anxiety disorders. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the strength of association between SUDs, mood and anxiety disorders in population-based epidemiological surveys.Methods A comprehensive literature search of Medline, EMBASE, CINAHL, PsychINFO, Web of Science, and Scopus was conducted from 1990 to 2014. Sources were chosen on the basis that they contained original research in non-clinical populations conducted in randomly selected adults living within defined boundaries. Prevalence of comorbid SUDs, mood and anxiety disorders and odds ratios (ORs) were extracted.Results There were 115 articles identified by electronic searches that were reviewed in full text which yielded 22 unique epidemiological surveys to extract lifetime and 12-month prevalence data for psychiatric illness in respondents with an SUD. Meta-analysis indicated the strongest associations were between illicit drug use disorder and major depression (pooled OR 3.80, 95% CI 3.02-4.78), followed by illicit drug use and any anxiety disorder (OR 2.91, 95% CI 2.58-3.28), alcohol use disorders and major depression (OR 2.42, 95% CI 2.22-2.64) and alcohol use disorders and any anxiety disorder (OR 2.11, 95% CI 2.03-2.19). ORs for dependence were higher than those for abuse irrespective to diagnoses based on lifetime or 12-month prevalence.Conclusions This review confirms the strong association between SUDs, mood and anxiety disorders. The issue has now been recognised worldwide as a factor that affects the profile, course, patterns, severity and outcomes of these disorders.

“Previous studies have consistently found that patients with high levels of anxiety and depression receiving opioid treatment for chronic pain are at increased risk of developing opioid misuse [80,81,82,83,84,85,86,87,88,89,90].”

“The relationship between anxiety and depression and substance abuse in general [81] and opioid misuse in particular is a well-documented finding [82,83]”
In the citing paper
“However, the prevalence rates of comorbid conditions in this sample were similar to those obtained in other studies (for a meta-analysis, see Lai et al., 2015), somewhat mitigating this concern.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
