Background

Cannabis is the most used illicit substance during pregnancy in the United States. While cannabis legislation is associated with prevalence and access to care, its relationship with treatment completion among pregnant women is unclear. This study examined the association between cannabis legalization and treatment completion among pregnant women admitted for cannabis use from 2020 to 2022.

Methods

This retrospective cross-sectional analysis used data from the Treatment Episode Data Set-Discharge (TEDS-D) to analyze treatment completion among pregnant women aged 12 or older who were admitted for cannabis use (n = 13,088) across states with fully legalized, partially legalized (medical use only), or illegal cannabis policies. Multivariable-adjusted logistic regression was used to assess the association between legalization status and treatment completion, with subgroup analyses by treatment setting and referral source.

Results

Among pregnant women admitted for cannabis use, 28.3 % completed treatment. Compared to states where cannabis remained illegal, those in states with fully legalized cannabis had significantly lower odds of treatment completion (adjusted odds ratio [AOR], 0.33 [95 % confidence interval, 0.27–0.41]), with a similar trend in states with partial legalization (AOR, 0.33 [0.28–0.40]). The negative association between cannabis legislation and treatment completion was more pronounced in outpatient settings than in residential programs, and stronger among court/other referrals than among voluntary referrals.

Conclusions

Cannabis legalization may be negatively associated with treatment completion among pregnant women admitted for cannabis use. Further research is needed to identify policy-related barriers and develop evidence-based interventions that improve treatment engagement and retention in this vulnerable population.
在美国,大麻是怀孕期间使用最多的非法药物。虽然大麻立法与流行率和获得保健有关,但其与孕妇完成治疗的关系尚不清楚。该研究调查了2020年至2022年大麻使用孕妇大麻合法化与治疗完成之间的关系。方法本回顾性横断面分析使用来自治疗事件数据集-出院(ted - d)的数据,分析在大麻完全合法化、部分合法化(仅用于医疗用途)或非法大麻政策的州,因大麻使用而入院的12岁及以上孕妇(n = 13088)的治疗完成情况。采用多变量调整逻辑回归评估合法化状态与治疗完成之间的关系,并根据治疗设置和转诊来源进行亚组分析。结果在因吸食大麻而入院的孕妇中,28.3%的人完成了治疗。与大麻仍然非法的州相比,大麻完全合法化州的治疗完成几率明显较低(调整优势比[AOR], 0.33[95%置信区间,0.27-0.41]),部分合法化州的趋势相似(AOR, 0.33[0.28-0.40])。大麻立法与治疗完成之间的负相关关系在门诊环境中比在住院项目中更为明显,在法院/其他转诊中比在自愿转诊中更强。结论大麻合法化可能与因大麻使用而入院的孕妇治疗完成度呈负相关。需要进一步的研究来确定与政策相关的障碍,并制定基于证据的干预措施,以提高这一弱势群体的治疗参与度和坚持度。

Objective

To examine nationwide trends in the prescribing of controlled medications to early adolescents, adolescents, and young adults enrolled in public insurance (Medicaid) from 2001 to 2019.

Methods

The study utilized US Medicaid data covering publicly insured enrollees from 43 states (2001–2019). Early adolescents (10–12 y), adolescents (13–17 y), and young adults (18–24 y, 25–29 y) with ≥ 10 months enrollment in each calendar year were included. Filled prescription for opioids, stimulants, benzodiazepines, Z-hypnotics, barbiturates, and gabapentin were identified. In each calendar year, annual proportions with 1 +  controlled medication, 2 +  classes of controlled medications, and each controlled medication were estimated.

Results

In 2019, the sample included 17.9 million enrollees (53 % female). The annual proportion prescribed any controlled medication peaked at 17.5 % in early adolescents (2003), 20.6 % in adolescents (2009), and 34.1 % (18–24 y) and 47.0 % (25–29 y) in young adults (2010). By 2019, the proportions declined to 11.7 % (early adolescents), 12.6 % (adolescents), 16.2 % (18–24 y), and 23.9 % (25–29 y). Trends varied by medication and age. The largest absolute decline was in the proportion with an opioid filled (2010 =29.8 %, 2019 =11.2 %, young adults 18–24 y; 2003 =14.3 %, 2019 =4.4 %, adolescents). In contrast, the proportion with a stimulant fill increased, with eight-fold increases in young adults 25–29 y (2001 =0.3 %, 2019 =2.6 %). Benzodiazepine and Z-hypnotic use peaked in 2010 and declined through 2019.

Conclusions

In the past two decades, there were increases in stimulant prescriptions among young Medicaid enrollees. The declines in opioid, benzodiazepines, barbiturate and Z-hypnotic prescribing are encouraging and may indicate more cautious prescribing related to greater awareness of harms such as misuse and overdose, along with policy initiatives.
目的:了解2001年至2019年全国范围内参加公共保险(医疗补助)的早期青少年、青少年和年轻人处方管制药物的趋势。方法:该研究利用了美国43个州(2001-2019年)的公共医疗补助数据。纳入每个日历年入组≥10个月的早期青少年(10-12岁)、青少年(13-17岁)和青壮年(18-24岁、25-29岁)。阿片类药物、兴奋剂、苯二氮卓类药物、z -催眠药、巴比妥类药物和加巴喷丁的处方被确定。在每个日历年,估计每年有1 +种控制药物、2 +种控制药物和每种控制药物的比例。结果:2019年,样本包括1790万参保者(53%为女性)。处方任何控制药物的年比例在青少年早期达到峰值17.5%(2003年),青少年20.6%(2009年),青壮年34.1%(18-24岁)和47.0%(25-29岁)(2010年)。到2019年,这一比例下降到11.7%(青少年早期)、12.6%(青少年)、16.2%(18-24岁)和23.9%(25-29岁)。趋势因药物和年龄而异。绝对降幅最大的是阿片类药物填充比例(2010年= 29.8%,2019年= 11.2%,18-24岁的年轻人;2003年= 14.3%,2019年= 4.4%,青少年)。相比之下,兴奋剂填充的比例增加了,25-29岁的年轻人增加了8倍(2001年= 0.3%,2019年= 2.6%)。苯二氮卓类药物和z -催眠药物的使用在2010年达到顶峰,到2019年一直在下降。结论:在过去的二十年中,年轻的医疗补助计划参保者中兴奋剂处方有所增加。阿片类药物、苯二氮卓类药物、巴比妥酸盐和z -催眠药物处方的减少令人鼓舞,这可能表明,随着对滥用和过量等危害的认识提高,处方更加谨慎,同时也采取了政策举措。

Objective

Mental health, substance use, and social media are three important, inter-related factors influencing youth development. This study examines the dynamic, reciprocal relationships among social media use, internalizing mental health symptoms, and substance use (e-cigarette, alcohol, cigarette, and marijuana) among U.S. adolescents.

Methods

Data were from restricted Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study, Waves 4, 4.5, and 5 (2016–2019). The sample included 7759U.S. adolescents (weighted N = 15,032,305) who completed all three waves. Weighted generalized structural equation models with lagged dependent variables were performed to examine the reciprocal relationships between youth’s social media use frequency, internalizing symptoms, and use of substances. Each variable has a dual role as both a predictor and outcome across waves, with earlier waves predicting subsequent ones, to assess bidirectional influences over time.

Results

Higher social media use and internalizing symptoms were associated with higher odds of subsequent e-cigarette, alcohol, and marijuana use. Higher social media use predicted higher odds of e-cigarette use (AOR=1.33, p < 0.001) and alcohol use (AOR=1.19, p < 0.001). Internalizing symptoms predicted higher odds of cigarette use (AOR=1.71, 95 % CI=1.15–2.53). Social media use also predicted greater odds of experiencing internalizing symptoms (AORs=1.05, all ps < 0.01). We found both similarities and differences in the patterns of the reciprocal pathways overtime across the four substances.

Conclusions

Our study reveals a complex and dynamic relationship among social media use, mental health, and substance use among youth. The findings support the need for integrative interventions that simultaneously address mental health, social media behaviors, and substance use risk.
客观地说,心理健康、物质使用和社交媒体是影响青少年发展的三个重要的、相互关联的因素。本研究考察了美国青少年使用社交媒体、内化心理健康症状和物质使用(电子烟、酒精、香烟和大麻)之间的动态、互惠关系。方法数据来自烟草与健康限制性人群评估(PATH)研究,第4、4.5和5期(2016-2019)。样品中含有7759us。青少年(加权N = 15,032,305)完成了所有三个波。采用带有滞后因变量的加权广义结构方程模型来检验青少年社交媒体使用频率、内化症状和物质使用之间的相互关系。每个变量都有双重作用,既是预测者,也是波浪的结果,早期的波浪预测随后的波浪,以评估随着时间的推移的双向影响。结果较高的社交媒体使用和内化症状与随后使用电子烟、酒精和大麻的几率较高相关。使用越多的社交媒体,使用电子烟(AOR=1.33, p < 0.001)和饮酒(AOR=1.19, p < 0.001)的几率就越大。内化症状预示着较高的吸烟几率(AOR=1.71, 95% CI= 1.15-2.53)。使用社交媒体也预示着出现内化症状的可能性更大(aor =1.05,均p <; 0.01)。我们发现,随着时间的推移,这四种物质的相互路径模式既有相似之处,也有不同之处。结论我们的研究揭示了青少年社交媒体使用、心理健康和物质使用之间复杂而动态的关系。研究结果支持需要同时解决心理健康、社交媒体行为和物质使用风险的综合干预措施。

Background

People who use drugs (PWUD) are an important population of focus for hepatitis C virus (HCV) elimination. Case-finding and treatment of these patients in outpatient specialist care is a challenge due to population specific barriers. Screening and treatment integrated in addiction care might overcome these barriers. With this study we aim to evaluate the implementation of a decentralized PWUD-HCV care model.

Methods

We conducted a multicenter prospective observational study in Dutch addiction care centers to assess a decentralized HCV care pathway for PWUD. Implementation of HCV-care within addiction care was evaluated using the Reach-Effectiveness-Adoption-Implementation-Maintenance (RE-AIM) framework. Viral elimination, defined as the proportion of identified HCV-RNA positive PWUD achieving sustained virologic response (SVR), was the primary outcome.

Results

Reach: 870 anti-HCV tests were performed, 29 HCV-RNA positive PWUD were enrolled. Effectiveness: 23 patients initiated and completed on-site treatment, three patients were referred for treatment, two patients were lost to follow-up and one patient refused treatment. All patients tested for SVR achieved SVR, one patient was lost to follow-up before SVR test. The elimination rate was 86 % (25/29). Adoption: five out of eleven addiction care organizations (45 %) implemented decentralized HCV care within addiction care. Implementation fidelity was high.

Conclusion

This study demonstrates that successfully implemented decentralized HCV care within addiction services is feasible and highly effective, achieving an elimination rate of 86 %. However, adoption of decentralized HCV care was limited, underscoring the need for targeted strategies to enhance implementation. Our findings support expanding of decentralized HCV care models in addiction settings to meet HCV elimination targets.
药物使用者(PWUD)是消除丙型肝炎病毒(HCV)的重要人群。由于特定人群的障碍,在门诊专科护理中发现病例和治疗这些患者是一项挑战。将筛查和治疗整合到成瘾护理中可能会克服这些障碍。通过这项研究,我们旨在评估分散的PWUD-HCV护理模式的实施情况。方法:我们在荷兰成瘾护理中心进行了一项多中心前瞻性观察研究,以评估PWUD的分散HCV护理途径。使用可及性-有效性-采用-实施-维持(RE-AIM)框架评估成瘾治疗中hcv护理的实施情况。病毒消除,定义为鉴定的HCV-RNA阳性PWUD达到持续病毒学应答(SVR)的比例,是主要结局。结果:共进行抗hcv检测870例,纳入HCV-RNA阳性患者29例。效果:23例患者开始并完成现场治疗,3例患者转诊治疗,2例患者失访,1例患者拒绝治疗。所有SVR检测患者均达到SVR, 1例患者在SVR检测前失访。根除率为86%(25/29)。采用:11个成瘾治疗组织中有5个(45%)在成瘾治疗中实施了分散的丙型肝炎病毒治疗。实现保真度高。结论:本研究表明,在成瘾服务中成功实施分散的HCV护理是可行且高效的,可实现86%的消除率。然而,分散的丙型肝炎病毒治疗的采用是有限的,强调需要有针对性的战略来加强实施。我们的研究结果支持在成瘾环境中扩展分散的HCV护理模式,以满足HCV消除目标。

Introduction

Blunts (cigars with tobacco replaced or mixed with cannabis) incur health risks from exposure to tobacco and cannabis and are disproportionately used by young adults, people identifying as Black/African American (B/AA), people with lower socioeconomic status (SES), and people with mental health issues. This study described patterns of blunt use among US adults with multiple identities or circumstances increasing risk for blunt use.

Methods

We used Wave 6 (2021) (US adults; N = 30,516) of the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health Study to examine the association between current blunt use and race (B/AA vs. non-B/AA) +  mental health (symptoms of internalizing/externalizing conditions) and socioeconomic status (SES; receipt of government assistance) using weighted multivariable logistic regression models, stratified by age (young adults [YAs] 18–34 vs. adults 35 + years).

Results

In 2021, 8.4 % of YAs and 1.4 % of adults 35 +  currently used blunts. Compared to people with joint advantage (e.g., non-B/AA + high SES), those identifying as B/AA with low SES (aOR=5.10, 95 % CI=4.16–6.26), high internalizing (aOR=4.83, 95 % CI=3.70–6.32), or externalizing conditions (aOR=4.74, 95 % CI=3.47–6.48) had greater odds of using blunts. The magnitude of the association between identifying as B/AA and having low SES (alone and jointly) and blunt use was greater among adults 35 +  years (vs. YAs).

Conclusions

Blunt use was most prevalent among B/AA adults with low SES or those who experienced mental health conditions. The magnitude of some inequities was greater among adults 35 + . Social and structural interventions to reduce blunt use among US adults could improve health equity.
blunts(用烟草代替或混合大麻的雪茄)会因接触烟草和大麻而造成健康风险,年轻人、黑人/非裔美国人(B/AA)、社会经济地位较低的人(SES)和有精神健康问题的人使用的比例过高。这项研究描述了美国成年人使用钝器的模式,他们有多种身份或情况增加了使用钝器的风险。方法:我们使用烟草与健康人口评估研究的第6期(2021年)(美国成年人,N = 30,516),使用加权多变量logistic回归模型,按年龄(18-34岁的年轻人与35岁以上的成年人)分层,检查当前钝性使用与种族(B/AA与非B/AA)、心理健康(内化/外化症状)和社会经济地位(SES;接受政府援助)之间的关系。结果2021年,8.4%的青少年和1.4%的35岁以上成年人使用钝器。与具有联合优势(例如,非B/AA +高SES)的人相比,低SES (aOR=5.10, 95% CI= 4.16-6.26)、高内化(aOR=4.83, 95% CI= 3.70-6.32)或外化条件(aOR=4.74, 95% CI= 3.47-6.48)的B/AA者使用钝器的几率更大。在35岁以上的成年人中,B/AA与低经济地位(单独或联合)和钝性使用之间的关联程度更大(与25岁相比)。结论在社会经济地位低或有心理健康问题的B/AA成人中,钝性用药最为普遍。一些不平等的程度在35岁以上的成年人中更为严重。减少美国成年人使用钝器的社会和结构干预措施可以改善健康公平。

Introduction

Tobacco use is disproportionately prevalent among people living with HIV (PWH) and is a significant contributor to morbidity and mortality in this population. Reaching communities of PWH to facilitate smoking cessation is challenging. Digital Therapeutics (DTx) can facilitate widespread implementation and adoption of smoking cessation treatments for PWH.

Methods

We compared the feasibility and acceptability (primary outcomes) and preliminary efficacy (secondary outcome) of a DTx tailored to PWH -- Learn to Quit-HIV (LTQ-H) -- versus a gold standard smoking cessation DTx (QuitGuide) in a remote pilot randomized controlled trial. All participants received nicotine replacement therapy and were assessed at weeks 4, 8, and 12.

Results

During a 13-month period, we remotely recruited a sample of PWH (n = 41) across the United States, with randomization leading to a higher proportion of LTQ-H users with high levels of cannabis use. Digital markers of DTx use indicated that compared to QuitGuide, assignment to LTQ-H led to significantly greater number of device interactions (3610 vs 2086; RR=93.14; 95 % CI: 14.70–590; p < 0.001), and a four-fold increase in mean interactions with active smoking cessation content (8.5 vs. 2.15; Cohen’s d=0.91; p < 0.001). At week 12, in an adjusted model, LTQ-H resulted in numerically greater, but not statistically significant, biochemically verified 7-day point prevalence abstinence versus QuitGuide (18.2 % vs 15.8 %; aOR=6.97, 95 % CI: 0.65–74.33).

Conclusions

While participants assigned to LTQ-H had proportionally more features known to predict low quit rates (e.g. cannabis use), LTQ-H showed promising population reach, device engagement, and smoking outcomes. A hybrid effectiveness-implementation trial will evaluate this novel DTx in a larger sample of PWH.

Implications

The study highlights the potential of DTx to address the high prevalence of tobacco use among people with HIV. Compared to QuitGuide (gold standard DTx developed by NCI), LTQ-H showed promising participant engagement and smoking cessation outcomes. These findings suggest that LTQ-H could be a valuable tool for smoking cessation in people with HIV, warranting further investigation in larger trials to evaluate its effectiveness and implementation feasibility.
烟草使用在艾滋病毒感染者(PWH)中不成比例地普遍,并且是该人群发病率和死亡率的重要因素。向PWH社区宣传戒烟是一项挑战。数字疗法(DTx)可以促进PWH戒烟治疗的广泛实施和采用。方法:在一项远程随机对照试验中,我们比较了针对PWH - Learn to Quit-HIV (LTQ-H)量身定制的DTx与金标准戒烟DTx (QuitGuide)的可行性、可接受性(主要结局)和初步疗效(次要结局)。所有参与者都接受尼古丁替代疗法,并在第4、8和12周进行评估。结果在13个月的时间里,我们远程招募了美国各地的PWH样本(n = 41),随机化导致LTQ-H使用者中高水平大麻使用的比例更高。DTx使用的数字标记表明,与QuitGuide相比,LTQ-H的分配显著增加了设备相互作用的数量(3610 vs 2086; RR=93.14; 95% CI: 14.70-590; p < 0.001),并且与主动戒烟内容的平均相互作用增加了四倍(8.5 vs 2.15; Cohen 's d=0.91; p < 0.001)。在第12周,在调整后的模型中,LTQ-H与QuitGuide相比,在生物化学上验证的7天点患病率禁欲在数值上更大,但在统计学上不显著(18.2% vs 15.8%; aOR=6.97, 95% CI: 0.65-74.33)。虽然分配到LTQ-H的参与者在预测低戒烟率(例如大麻使用)方面具有比例更多的已知特征,但LTQ-H显示出有希望的人口覆盖率、设备参与度和吸烟结果。一项混合有效性实施试验将在更大的PWH样本中评估这种新型DTx。该研究强调了DTx在解决艾滋病毒感染者中烟草使用高流行率方面的潜力。与QuitGuide (NCI开发的黄金标准DTx)相比,LTQ-H显示出良好的参与者参与度和戒烟效果。这些发现表明,LTQ-H可能是艾滋病毒感染者戒烟的一种有价值的工具,值得在更大规模的试验中进一步研究,以评估其有效性和实施可行性。

Background and aims

Smoking rates remain higher among individuals from less advantaged social grades, who tend to be less successful when they try to quit. Abrupt quitting may be more successful than cutting down first, though evidence is mixed. It is not clear whether the quit methods chosen, and their effects, differ by social grade. This study aimed to: (1) compare the prevalence of gradual versus abrupt quit attempts across social grades; (2) examine the association between quit method and quit success; and (3) assess whether social grade moderates this association.

Methods

We used data from 27,390 adults in England who reported a past-year quit attempt in the Smoking Toolkit Study (2006–2025). Quit method used (gradual vs. abrupt) and quitting success were self-reported. Logistic regression analyses examined the two-way interaction between quit method and social grade (ABC1 =more advantaged vs. C2DE=less advantaged) and success, adjusting for sociodemographic and smoking-related covariates.

Results

People from less advantaged social grades were less likely to attempt to quit abruptly (53.2 % [95 % CI: 52.3–54.0 %] vs. 57.4 % [56.4–58.4 %]). Abrupt quitting was associated with higher odds of success compared with gradual quitting (OR = 1.70; 95 % CI: 1.58–1.84) providing no clear evidence this was moderated by social grade (interaction OR = 1.13; 95 % CI: 0.97–1.33, p = 0.14).

Conclusion

People who choose to quit abruptly are more likely to quit successfully than people who choose to quit gradually, irrespective of their social grade. However, people from less advantaged social grades are less likely to choose to quit abruptly.
背景和目的:社会地位较低的人的吸烟率仍然较高,他们在试图戒烟时往往不太成功。尽管证据不一,但突然戒烟可能比先戒烟更成功。目前尚不清楚所选择的戒烟方法及其效果是否因社会等级而异。本研究的目的是:(1)比较不同社会阶层中逐渐戒烟和突然戒烟的流行程度;(2)研究戒烟方法与戒烟成功的关系;(3)评估社会等级是否调节了这种关联。方法:我们使用了英国27,390名成年人的数据,这些成年人在吸烟工具包研究(2006-2025)中报告了过去一年的戒烟尝试。采用的戒烟方法(渐进式与突然式)和戒烟成功均为自我报告。逻辑回归分析检验了戒烟方法与社会等级(ABC1 =优势vs. C2DE=劣势)和成功之间的双向相互作用,调整了社会人口统计学和吸烟相关协变量。结果:社会地位较低的人不太可能试图突然戒烟(53.2% [95% CI: 52.3- 54.0%]对57.4%[56.4- 58.4%])。与逐渐戒烟相比,突然戒烟的成功几率更高(OR = 1.70; 95% CI: 1.58-1.84),没有明确的证据表明这与社会等级有关(相互作用OR = 1.13; 95% CI: 0.97-1.33, p = 0.14)。结论:选择突然戒烟的人比选择逐渐戒烟的人更有可能成功戒烟,无论他们的社会地位如何。然而,社会地位较低的人不太可能选择突然戒烟。
