Driving under drugs in Switzerland : a descriptive cross-sectional study

Objectives: Many drugs, both illicit or for medication, are known to influence driving abilities and increase risks of accidents. We explored the prevalence of psychoactive substances in a random sample of drivers in Switzerland. Methods: Saliva samples from 1078 random drivers were collected at 24 different locations in Western Switzerland from October 2006 to April 2008 for complete toxicological analysis using liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry. Results: Provisional results are available for 437 drivers. 6.2% (CI95% 4.1 to 8.9) were under the influence of illicit drugs and 8.7% under psychoactive medication (CI95% 6.2 to 11.7). 37 drivers (8.5%) were under the influence of alcohol of which 14 (3.2%) were above 0.8 mg/L. 21 drivers (4.8%) were under the combined influence of more than one psychoactive substance; however only 4 drivers (0.9%) were under both the influence of medication and alcohol. Looking more specifically at illicit substances, 22 (5.0%) were positive to cocaine, 5 (1.1%) to cannabis, and 2 (0.5%) to amphetamines ; for psychoactive medication, 17 (3.9%) were positive to benzodiazepines, 16 (3.7%) to antidepressors, 7 (1.6%) to opiates, 7 (1.6%) to neuroleptics, and 3 (0.7%) to other substances influencing driving abilities. 17/21 drivers did not self-report their consumption of drugs whereas only 9/35 failed mentioning their medication. Men drivers were 3.2 times (CI95% 1.1 to 9.5) more likely to be under the influence of illicit drugs than women. Full results will be reported when laboratory data will be available in April. Conclusions: Driving under the influence of psychoactive substances is common. In Western Switzerland, prevention messages could focus on men, driving under medication or cocaine.

Changes in the flavonoid and phenolic acid contents and antioxidant activity of red leaf lettuce (Lollo Rosso) due to cultivation under plastic films varying in ultraviolet transparency

Red leaf lettuce (Lollo Rosso) was grown under three types of plastic films that varied in transparency to UV radiation (designated as UV block, UV low, and UV window). Flavonoid composition was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), total phenolics by the Folin-Ciocalteu assay, and antioxiclant capacity by the oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay. Exposure to increased levels of UV radiation during cultivation caused the leaves to redden and increased concentrations of total phenols and the main flavonoids, quercetin and cyanidin glycosides, as well as luteolin conjugates and phenolic acids. The total phenol content increased from 1.6 mg of gallic acid equivalents (GAE)/g of fresh weight (FW) for lettuce grown under UV block film to 2.9 and 3.5 mg of GAE/g of FW for lettuce grown under the UV low and UV window films. The antioxiclant activity was also higher in lettuce exposed to higher levels of UV radiation with ORAC values of 25.4 and 55.1 mu mol of Trolox equivalents/g of FW for lettuce grown under the UV block and UV window films, respectively. The content of phenolic acids, quantified as caffeic acid, was also different, ranging from 6.2 to 11.1 mu mol/g of FW for lettuce cultivated under the lowest and highest UV exposure plastic films, respectively. Higher concentrations of the flavonoid glycosides were observed with increased exposure to UV radiation, as demonstrated by the concentrations of aglycones after hydrolysis, which were cyanidin (ranging from 165 to 793 mu g/g), quercetin (ranging from 196 to 880,mu g/g), and luteolin (ranging from 19 to 152 mu g/g). The results demonstrate the potential of the use of UV-transparent plastic as a means of increasing beneficial flavonoid content of red leaf lettuce when the crop is grown in polytunnels.
