We aimed to investigate; (i) mortality among people with schizophrenia and/or substance use disorder, with emphasis on the impact of a dual diagnosis; (ii) whether people ...
    • Total and cause-specific standardized mortality ratios in patients with schizophrenia and/or substance use disorder 

      Heiberg, Ina Heidi; Jacobsen, Bjarne K.; Nesvåg, Ragnar; Bramness, Jørgen Gustav; Reichborn-Kjennerud, Ted; Næss, Øyvind; Ystrøm, Eivind; Hultman, Christina M; Høye, Anne (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-08-23)
      Individuals with schizophrenia or substance use disorder have a substantially increased mortality compared to the general population. Despite a high and probably increasing prevalence of comorbid substance use disorder in people with schizophrenia, the mortality in the comorbid group has been less studied and with contrasting results. We performed a nationwide open cohort study from 2009 to 2015, ...
