“…Child neglect is one of the most prevalent forms of CM, with important impacts on mental health functioning in adults, such as elevated symptoms of depression, PTSD, illicit substance use, cigarette use over time, the development of other psychiatric disorders (Brady and Back, ; Young et al, ) and risk of suicide (Barbosa et al, ; Cohen et al, ). In our study, child neglect was not statistically associated with an increased risk of substance abuse, although although there is a tendency to increase the likelihood of developing SUD.…”

This study aimed to investigate the association between exposure to different types of child maltreatment (CM) and the development of substance use disorders (SUDs) later in life. A systematic review was conducted: the PubMed, EMBASE and PsycINFO databases were searched for relevant papers and ten studies were identified for further analysis. Random effects meta‐analyses were performed for each type of maltreatment in order to estimate the odds ratio (OR) for SUD incidence, and meta‐regressions were performed to explore potential moderators. Individuals with a history of physical abuse during childhood had a 74 per cent increased risk for drug abuse later in life (OR = 1.74, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.362.18). The risk for drug abuse was also 73 per cent higher in individuals with a history of sexual abuse during childhood (OR = 1.73, 95% CI = 1.242.41). A meta‐regression found that gender has a moderating effect, with women at a greater risk of SUD incidence compared to men. Exposure to CM, such as physical and sexual abuse in childhood, increases the risk of further substance abuse. Understanding the interplay between the different factors associated with violence and abuse of psychoactive substances is of fundamental importance in designing prevention approaches and interventions for drug users. Key Practitioner Messages Child exposure to violence was associated with the development of substance use disorder. Exposure to violence affects men and women in a gender‐dependent manner, with females being at a higher risk. Understanding the interplay between the different factors associated with violence and drug abuse is of fundamental importance to design prevention approaches and interventions. Drug users have higher rates of child maltreatment and psychological suffering compared to the general population.

“…There is convincing evidence that early‐life events are associated with an excessive risk for a range of disorders, particularly mood disorders . When people have a mood disorder, trauma also accompanies several indicators of a worse overall outcome, including earlier age of onset, episode persistence and recurrence, suicide attempts, suicide risk, and treatment resistance . Childhood trauma can also have more complex implications, due to its possible influence in different levels in the causal chain that leads to a mood disorder .…”

This investigation provides further support, in a population-based sample of young adults, of the association between childhood trauma and mood disorders, with sexual abuse being specifically linked with bipolar disorder. The hypothesis that childhood trauma would function as a partial mediator of the association between family history of mood disorder and mood disorder in adulthood was also confirmed.

“…However, in this meta-analysis, only two studies took into account body mass index (BMI) as a potential confounder and none took into account personal history of suicide attempt and childhood trauma as potential confounder. In addition, significant associations have also been found between smoking and suicidal ideation or suicide attempts in both cross-sectional studies (Barbosa et al, 2014;Evren et al, 2014;Hallfors et al, 2004;Makikyro et al, 2004;Wu et al, 2004) and prospective studies (Breslau et al, 2005; Contents lists available at ScienceDirect journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/jad Hintikka et al, 2001;Oquendo et al, 2007), mostly in general population. However, these results have not always been replicated when controlling for mental disorders (Boden et al, 2008;Kessler et al, 2007;McGee et al, 2005;Wilcox and Anthony, 2004).…”
