重要性

大量证据证明女同性恋、男同性恋和双性恋(LGB)女性的健康差异,包括身体、精神和行为健康状况比异性恋女性更差。这些因素与过早死亡有关,但很少有研究调查男女同性恋、双性恋和变性者中过早死亡的差异,以及她们是否因女同性恋或双性恋身份而不同。

目的

研究不同性取向的死亡率差异。

设计、设置和参与者

这项前瞻性队列研究调查了不同性取向的死亡时间差异,并对出生队列进行了调整。参与者是1945年至1964年出生的女护士,最初于1989年在美国招募,参加护士健康研究II,并随访至2022年4月。

曝光

1995年对性取向(女同性恋、双性恋或异性恋)进行评估。

主要成果和措施

使用加速失效时间模型分析暴露评估的全因死亡率时间。

结果

在116149名合格参与者中,90833人(78%)拥有有效的性取向数据。在这90833名参与者中,89821人(98.9%)被认定为异性恋,694人(0.8%)被认定为女同性恋,318人(0.4%)被认定为双性恋。在报告的4227例死亡中,大多数是异性恋参与者(n=4146;累积死亡率为4.6%),其次是女同性恋参与者(n=49;累积死亡率为7.0%)和双性恋者(n=32;累积死亡率为10.1%)。与异性恋参与者相比,LGB参与者的死亡率更早(校正加速因子,0.74[95%CI,0.64-0.84])。这些差异在双性恋参与者中最大(校正加速因子,0.63[95%CI,0.51-0.78]),其次是女同性恋参与者(校正加速因子,0.80[95%CI,0.68-0.95])。

结论和相关性

在一个很大程度上同质的女护士样本中,与异性恋女性相比,被认定为女同性恋或双性恋的参与者在研究期间的死亡率明显更早。死亡时间的这些差异凸显了解决可变风险和传播和延续差异的上游社会力量的紧迫性。

Abstracts

Importance  Extensive evidence documents health disparities for lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) women, including worse physical, mental, and behavioral health than heterosexual women. These factors have been linked to premature mortality, yet few studies have investigated premature mortality disparities among LGB women and whether they differ by lesbian or bisexual identity.

Objective  To examine differences in mortality by sexual orientation.

Design, Setting, and Participants  This prospective cohort study examined differences in time to mortality across sexual orientation, adjusting for birth cohort. Participants were female nurses born between 1945 and 1964, initially recruited in the US in 1989 for the Nurses' Health Study II, and followed up through April 2022.

Exposures  Sexual orientation (lesbian, bisexual, or heterosexual) assessed in 1995.

Main Outcome and Measure  Time to all-cause mortality from assessment of exposure analyzed using accelerated failure time models.

Results  Among 116 149 eligible participants, 90 833 (78%) had valid sexual orientation data. Of these 90 833 participants, 89 821 (98.9%) identified as heterosexual, 694 (0.8%) identified as lesbian, and 318 (0.4%) identified as bisexual. Of the 4227 deaths reported, the majority were among heterosexual participants (n = 4146; cumulative mortality of 4.6%), followed by lesbian participants (n = 49; cumulative mortality of 7.0%) and bisexual participants (n = 32; cumulative mortality of 10.1%). Compared with heterosexual participants, LGB participants had earlier mortality (adjusted acceleration factor, 0.74 [95% CI, 0.64-0.84]). These differences were greatest among bisexual participants (adjusted acceleration factor, 0.63 [95% CI, 0.51-0.78]) followed by lesbian participants (adjusted acceleration factor, 0.80 [95% CI, 0.68-0.95]).

Conclusions and Relevance  In an otherwise largely homogeneous sample of female nurses, participants identifying as lesbian or bisexual had markedly earlier mortality during the study period compared with heterosexual women. These differences in mortality timing highlight the urgency of addressing modifiable risks and upstream social forces that propagate and perpetuate disparities.
