Abstract

The purpose was to estimate the annual incidence of hospital-treated injuries related to violence in the city of Odense in the period of 1988 to 1996. The overall incidence was estimated to 0.57 (1996) per 100 persons per year, with the highest incidence among men between 15 to 25 years. The lifetime cumulative incidence proportion was estimated to 45% for men and 21% for women. During the period 1988-1996 the overall annual incidence showed a slight decrease.
