Abstract

Objective Although a number of previous studies have investigated the association between natural disaster-related physical injury and mental health, very few have focused on mild physical injury. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between natural disaster-related mild physical injury and psychological distress in a cross-sectional study.Method This study is a part of the Shichigahama Health Promotion Project, which was conducted in cooperation with the Tohoku University and Shichigahama Town, Miyagi Prefecture, after the Great East Japan Earthquake (GEJE). We conducted the research about one year after the GEJE, and performed logistic regression analyses using 3,844 participants (1,821 males/2,023 females) aged 20 years or older, who answered all the questions on physical injuries and the Kessler 6 scale (K6), after adjusting for gender, age, social factors, and lifestyles. Psychological distress was defined as a K6 score ≥ 13 out of 24 points. We also investigated the effect of other disaster situations on the association between mild physical injury and psychological distress by stratifying the dataset by bereavement, witnessing someone's death, and house damage.Results The participants with physical injury were at a significantly higher risk of psychological distress, with an adjusted odds ratio (aOR) of 2.05 and 95% confidence interval (CI) of 1.26-3.34, than those uninjured. Additionally, the participants with mild physical injury were at a significantly higher risk of psychological distress (aOR=2.18, 95% CI=1.32-3.59). In the subgroup of participants with small-scale house damage, mild physical injury was significantly associated with psychological distress with an aOR of 4.01 and 95% CI of 2.03-7.93, whereas not in the subgroup of those with large-scale house damage, and a significant interaction was detected between mild physical injury and house damage.Conclusion We investigated the association between natural disaster-related physical injury and psychological distress in a cohort of approximately 4,000 residents in an area devastated by the GEJE. In this study, natural disaster-related physical injury was positively associated with psychological distress. The finding indicates that even mild physical injury can be an indicator of high risk for psychological distress.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 02 May 2018.
All research outputs
#21,048,638
of 25,852,155 outputs
Outputs from [Nippon kōshū eisei zasshi] Japanese journal of public health
#228
of 457 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#266,353
of 340,298 outputs
Outputs of similar age from [Nippon kōshū eisei zasshi] Japanese journal of public health
#2
of 6 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,852,155 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 457 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.2. This one is in the 4th percentile – i.e., 4% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 340,298 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 6 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 4 of them.
