Birth Defects Res
Full text linkBackground:The use of chlorine to treat drinking water produces disinfection by-products (DBPs), which have been associated with congenital heart defects (CHDs) in some studies.Methods:Using National Birth Defects Prevention Study data, we linked geocoded residential addresses to public water supply measurement data for DBPs. Self-reported water consumption and filtration methods were used to estimate maternal ingestion of DBPs. We estimated adjusted odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals using logistic regression controlling for maternal age, education, body mass index (BMI), race/ethnicity, and study site to examine associations between CHDs and both household DBP level and estimated ingestion of DBPs.Results:Household DBP exposure was assessed for 2717 participants (1495 cases and 1222 controls). We observed a broad range of positive, null, and negative estimates across eight specific CHDs and two summary exposures (trihalomethanes and haloacetic acids) plus nine individual DBP species. Examining ingestion exposure among 2488 participants (1347 cases, 1141 controls) produced similarly inconsistent results.Conclusions:Assessing both household DBP level and estimated ingestion of DBPs, we did not find strong evidence of an association between CHDs and DBPs. Despite a large study population, DBP measurements were available for less than half of participant addresses, limiting study power.CDP 13-003/HX/HSRD VAUnited States/FOA #DD09-001/CC/CDC HHSUnited States/FOA #DD13-003/CC/CDC HHSUnited States/PA #96043/CC/CDC HHSUnited States/CC999999/ImCDC/Intramural CDC HHSUnited States/EP-D-18-001/EPA/EPAUnited States/PA #02081/CC/CDC HHSUnited States/NOFO #DD18-001/CC/CDC HHSUnited States
J Infect Dis
Full text linkBackground.We assessed prevalence of testing for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection among persons who inject drugs (PWID).Methods.Using a nationwide health insurance database for claims paid during 2010\u20132017, we identified PWID by using codes from the International Classification of Diseases, Current Procedural Terminology, and National Drug Codes directory. We then estimated the percentage of PWIDs tested for HIV or HCV within 1 year of an index encounter, and we used multivariate logistic regression models to assess demographic and clinical factors associated with testing.Results.Of 844 242 PWIDs, 71 938 (8.5%) were tested for HIV and 65 188 (7.7%) were tested for HCV infections. Missed opportunities were independently associated with being male (odds ratios [ORs]: HIV, 0.50 [95% confidence interval {CI}, 0.49\u20130.50], P < .001; HCV, 0.66 [95% CI, 0.65\u20130.72], P < .001), rural residence (ORs: HIV, 0.67 [95% CI, 0.65\u20130.69], P < .001; HCV, 0.75 [95% CI, 0.73\u20130.77], P < .001), and receiving services for skin infections or endocarditis (adjusted ORs: HIV, 0.91 [95% CI, 0.87\u20130.95], P < .001; HCV, 0.90 [95% CI, 0.86\u20130.95], P < .001).Conclusions.Approximately 90% of presumed PWIDs missed opportunities for HIV or HCV testing, especially male rural residents with claims for skin infections or endocarditis, commonly associated with injection drug use.CC999999/ImCDC/Intramural CDC HHSUnited States
