OBJECTIVES: To examine the long-term development of physical and mental health
following exposure to a volcanic eruption. DESIGN: Population-based prospective
cohort study. SETTING: In spring 2010, the Icelandic volcano Eyjafjallajökull
erupted. Data were collected at 2 time points: in 2010 and 2013. PARTICIPANTS:
Adult residents in areas close to the Eyjafjallajökull volcano (N=1096), divided
according to exposure levels, and a non-exposed sample (n=475), with 80%
participation rate in 2013. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Physical symptoms in the
previous year (chronic) and previous month (recent), and psychological distress
(General Health Questionnaire-12-item version, GHQ-12), perceived stress
(Perceived Stress Scale, PSS-4) and post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
symptoms (Primary Care PTSD, PC-PTSD). RESULTS: In the exposed group, certain
symptoms were higher in 2013 than in 2010, for example, morning phlegm during
winter (OR 2.14; 95% CI 1.49 to 3.06), skin rash/eczema (OR 2.86; 95% CI 1.76 to
4.65), back pain (OR 1.45; 95% CI 1.03 to 2.05) and insomnia (OR 1.53; 95% CI
1.01 to 2.30), in addition to a higher prevalence of regular use of certain
medications (eg, for asthma (OR 2.80; 95% CI 1.01 to 7.77)). PTSD symptoms
decreased between 2010 and 2013 (OR 0.33; 95% CI 0.17 to 0.61), while the
prevalence of psychological distress and perceived stress remained similar. In
2013, the exposed group showed a higher prevalence of various respiratory
symptoms than did the non-exposed group, such as wheezing without a cold (high
exposure OR 2.35; 95% CI 1.27 to 4.47) and phlegm (high exposure OR 2.81; 95% CI
1.48 to 5.55), some symptoms reflecting the degree of exposure (eg, nocturnal
chest tightness (medium exposed OR 3.09; 95% CI 1.21 to 10.46; high exposed OR
3.42; 95% CI 1.30 to 11.79)). CONCLUSIONS: The findings indicate that people
exposed to a volcanic eruption, especially those most exposed, exhibit increased
risk of certain symptoms 3-4?years after the eruption.
