What is Association of Early Life Physical and Sexual Abuse with Premature Mortality Among Female Nurses: Prospective Cohort Study about?
## Abstract ## Objective To explore associations between early life physical and sexual abuse and subsequent risk of premature mortality (death before age 70 years). ## Design Prospective cohort study. ## Setting The Nurses’ Health Study II (2001-19). ## Participants 67 726 female nurses aged 37-54 years when completing a violence victimization questionnaire in 2001. ## Main outcome measures Hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals for total and cause specific premature mortality by childhood or adolescent physical and sexual abuse, estimated by multivariable Cox proportional hazard models. ## Results 2410 premature deaths were identified over 18 years of follow-up. Nurses who experienced severe physical abuse or forced sexual activity in childhood and adolescence had a higher crude premature mortality rate than nurses without such abuse in childhood or adolescence (3.15 __v__ 1.83 and 4.00 __v__ 1.90 per 1000 person years, respectively). The corresponding age adjusted hazard ratios for premature deaths were 1.65 (95% confidence interval 1.45 to 1.87) and 2.04 (1.71 to 2.44), respectively, which were materially unchanged after further adjusting for personal characteristics and ea
