Background: There is an increased demand for quality treatment and rehabilitation services for people who use drugs (PWUDs) in the Philippines. In response, the Philippines Government's Department of Health (DOH) has established a new residential treatment model, Intensive Treatment and Rehabilitation Program for Residential Treatment and Rehabilitation Centers (INTREPRET), and integrated it into the existing treatment service platform of 21 DOH-owned Treatment and Rehabilitation Centers (TRCs). We conducted a qualitative study to identify the changes engendered by the implementation of this treatment model.
Methods: Data were collected through individual face-to-face interviews. We interviewed purposefully selected 29 patients and 35 facilitators of INTREPRET group sessions in seven TRCs. We transcribed the interview records and organized the narrative information into key themes using thematic analysis during the coding process.
Results: The changes perceived by the study participants included the attitude and behavior of patients, attitude and competency of facilitators, relationship between facilitators and patients, treatment planning and review process, efficient and standardized treatment services, and monitoring mechanisms of the patient's recovery process. Participants also noted challenges in INTREPRET implementation, including family participation in therapy sessions, lack of facilitators, securing a conducive place for conducting sessions, and reproducing workbooks.
Conclusions: The results imply that the introduction of INTREPRET could improve treatment service quality and the effectiveness of treatment, which were primarily associated with behavioral changes in patients, improved relationship between patients and facilitators, and INTREPRET's alignment with key international treatment standards. However, despite the positive changes perceived by the participants, certain challenges pertaining to family participation in therapy sessions and the lack of resources were identified. These criticisms must be addressed by DOH, along with an integration of INTREPRET into its policy and strategic framework, to ensure the effectiveness and sustainability of the new treatment model.

Background: With the broad recognition of increased U.S. opioid overdose (OOD) rates between 2020 and 2021, media, public health, and healthcare organizations have raised significant concerns over the emergence of a simultaneous COVID-19-opioid "twindemic." Research in this area has explored the possible relationships between negative externalities associated with the pandemic and/or COVID-19 public health interventions and increased risks for opioid use and overdose alongside diminished outcomes following OOD events.
Methods: The study offers a summative content analysis of Emergency Medical Service (EMS) responses to opioid overdose (OOD) events before and after the institution of COVID-19 restrictions. Specifically, the study investigates three Texas counties to evaluate changing OOD rates, patient demographics, and OOD event features. The analysis uses a previously validated machine learning tool to identify OOD events and conducted a summative content analysis of identified events.
Results: A total of 1170 OOD responses events were identified in the three-county dataset. This includes 874 in Travis County, 242 in El Paso County, and 54 in Williamson County. Each county experienced modest changes in EMS calls for OOD events between the pre-restriction and public health restriction time periods. Travis County's OOD event rate declined from 454 to 420. El Paso's increased from 103 to 139, and Williamson County's increased from 23 to 31. These changes were not significant as percentage of possible OOD events or based on by-month comparison. The notable differences between pre-restriction and public health restriction periods were significant decreases in documentation of patient race/ethnicity in Travis and Williamson Counties, significant decreases in housing insecurity and use alone in Travis County, and an increase in transport refusal after treatment in the field in Travis County.
Conclusions: Ultimately the results presented here problematize prevailing analyses about the so-called opioid-COVID-19 "twindemic." The data further support emerging trends about substantial geographic variation and show some ways that COVID-19 mitigation measures may have improved conditions for some populations, particularly in terms of housing security. Additionally, the results presented here indicate that further attention should be paid to the effects of first responder stress on documentation quality.

BACKGROUNDPrevious research has investigated the association between attachment styles and smoking behaviors, indicating a positive association of insecure attachment styles with nicotine dependence. However, these links were mostly explored in adolescent and student samples. Moreover, the explanatory mechanisms and the variables influencing the strength of this relationship remained understudied. In this context, the present study aims to: (1) examine the associations between attachment anxiety, avoidance, and nicotine dependence; (2) investigate the mediating role of emotion dysregulation and metacognitions about smoking; and (3) test the moderating roles of psychological capital and type of tobacco product used by the participants.METHODThis cross-sectional study was conducted on a convenience sample of 447 participants who reported smoking. The age range of participants was 18 to 64 (M = 26.76; 59.7% women). All participants have completed five questionnaires measuring nicotine dependence, adult attachment, emotion dysregulation, metacognitions about smoking, and psychological capital. They also reported the type of tobacco product commonly used: classic cigarettes, e-cigarettes, or heated tobacco products.RESULTSOur findings show that the direct link between insecure attachment and nicotine dependence is rather inconsistent. However, it was mediated by the metacognitions about smoking. Psychological capital can act as a protective factor against the effects of attachment on nicotine dependence, especially for those using alternative tobacco products alongside classic cigarettes.CONCLUSIONSThe findings highlight the possibility of developing better-tailored interventions and treatments to discourage smoking and increase smoking cessation. These should focus on eliminating the dysfunctional beliefs related to the metacognitions about smoking and on improving the levels of psychological capital. In addition, targeting attachment insecurities in early adolescence can also function as a mean to prevent smoking.

BACKGROUNDIn March 2020, British Columbia, Canada, introduced prescribed safer supply involving the distribution of pharmaceutical grade alternatives to the unregulated toxic drug supply. Prior research has demonstrated positive impacts on overdose mortality, but with limited reach to people who use substances. Objectives of this study were to (1) identify barriers to accessing safer supply prescribing among people who use substances; and (2) determine whether and how barriers differed between people with and without prescriptions, and between urban and rural settings.METHODSWe conducted a participatory mixed-methods study guided by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research. Participants (≥ 19 years old) had received a safer supply prescription or were seeking one (survey n = 353; interviews n = 54).RESULTSParticipants who had a prescription were more likely to be living in a large urban centre, compared to medium/smaller centres and rural areas (78.5% vs. 65.8%, standardized mean difference = 0.286). Participants who did not have a prescription were more likely to report an array of structural, interpersonal, and health-related barriers (compared to those who had a prescription). In interviews, participants linked experiences of barriers to stigma and criminalization, low availability of services, lack of information and prescribers, not being able to get what they need, and anxieties, worries and doubts stemming from personal circumstances. There were no notable differences between large urban centres and medium/smaller centres and rural areas in the presence of specific types of barriers.CONCLUSIONSFindings demonstrate restricted access to safer supply prescribing outside of large urban centres and provide future targets for enhancing implementation. Attention is needed to promote equity and counter systemic barriers in the implementation of responses to the ongoing toxic drug emergency.

OBJECTIVESWidespread health service disruptions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic coincided with a dramatic increase in overdose deaths among people who use drugs (PWUD) in Vancouver, Canada. Those with a history of injection drug use are known to be at heightened risk of substance-associated harms. Drug use patterns and associated sociodemographic and health care utilization trends have been understudied in this population since the pandemic onset. We sought to understand patterns of drug use initiation and/or re-initiation among people with a history of injection drug use (IVDU).METHODSData were obtained from three harmonized prospective cohort studies of PWUD in Vancouver. Participants with a lifetime history of IVDU who responded to a survey between June 2021 and May 2022 were included. The primary outcome variable was a composite of substance use initiation and re-initiation over the study period, labelled as drug (re)-initiation. A multivariable generalized linear mixed-effects model was used to examine factors associated with self-reported (re)-initiation of substance use over the past six months.RESULTSAmong 1061 participants, the median age was 47 years at baseline and 589 (55.5%) identified as men. In total, 183 (17.2%) participants reported initiating and/or re-initiating a drug, with 44 (4.1%) reporting new drug initiation and 148 (14.0%) reporting drug re-initiation (9 participants responded 'yes' to both). Overall, unregulated stimulants (e.g., crystal methamphetamine and cocaine) were the most common drug class (re-)initiated (n = 101; 55.2%), followed by opioids (n = 74; 40.4%) and psychedelics (n = 36; 19.7%). In the multivariable analysis, (re-)initiation of drug use was independently associated with recent IVDU (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] 2.62, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.02, 6.76), incarceration (AOR 3.36, CI 1.12, 10.14) and inability to access addiction treatment (AOR 4.91, 95% CI 1.22, 19.75).CONCLUSIONSIn an era impacted by the intersecting effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the overdose crisis, nearly one in five PWUD with a history of IVDU began using a new drug and/or re-started use of a previous drug. Those who reported drug (re-)initiation exhibited riskier substance use behaviours and reported difficulty accessing treatment services. Our findings underscore the need to provide additional resources to support this high-risk population.

Background: Examining support for substance use policies, including those for harm reduction, among the general public and policy influencers is a fundamental step to map the current policy landscape and leverage policy opportunities. Yet, this is a knowledge gap in Canada. Our paper identifies the level of support for substance use policies in two provinces in Canada and describes how the level of support is associated with intrusiveness and sociodemographic variables.
Methods: Data came from the 2019 Chronic Disease Prevention Survey. The representative sample included members of the general public (Alberta n = 1648, Manitoba n = 1770) as well as policy influencers (Alberta n = 204, Manitoba n = 98). We measured the level of support for 22 public policies concerning substance use through a 4-point Likert-scale. The Nuffield Council on Bioethics Intervention Ladder framework was applied to assess intrusiveness. We used cumulative link models to run ordinal regressions for identification of explanatory sociodemographic variables.
Results: Overall, there was generally strong support for the policies assessed. The general public in Manitoba was significantly more supportive of policies than its Alberta counterpart. Some differences were found between provinces and samples. For certain substance use policies, there was stronger support among women than men and among those with higher education than those with less education.
Conclusions: The results highlight areas where efforts are needed to increase support from both policy influencers and general public for adoption, implementation, and scaling of substance use policies. Socio-demographic variables related to support for substance use policies may be useful in informing strategies such as knowledge mobilization to advance the policy landscape in Western Canada.
背景:审查公众和政策影响者对药物使用政策(包括减少伤害政策)的支持情况,是绘制当前政策图景和利用政策机会的基本步骤。然而,这在加拿大还是一个知识空白。我们的论文确定了加拿大两个省份对药物使用政策的支持程度,并描述了支持程度如何与侵扰性和社会人口变量相关联:数据来自 2019 年慢性病预防调查。代表性样本包括普通公众(艾伯塔省 n = 1648,马尼托巴省 n = 1770)以及政策影响者(艾伯塔省 n = 204,马尼托巴省 n = 98)。我们通过 4 点李克特量表测量了 22 项有关药物使用的公共政策的支持程度。纳菲尔德生物伦理学委员会干预阶梯框架用于评估侵扰性。我们使用累积联系模型进行序数回归,以确定解释性社会人口变量:总体而言,所评估的政策普遍得到了强有力的支持。马尼托巴省公众对政策的支持程度明显高于艾伯塔省。不同省份和样本之间存在一些差异。对于某些药物使用政策,女性的支持率高于男性,教育程度较高者的支持率高于教育程度较低者:结论:研究结果强调了需要在哪些方面做出努力,以增加政策影响者和公众对物质使用政策的采纳、实施和推广的支持。与支持药物使用政策相关的社会人口变量可能有助于为知识动员等战略提供信息,从而推动加拿大西部的政策环境。

Background: Veterans with substance use disorder (SUD) are at high risk for cognitive problems due to neurotoxic effects of chronic drug and alcohol use coupled in many cases with histories of traumatic brain injury (TBI). These problems may in turn result in proneness to SUD relapse and reduced adherence to medical self-care regimens and therefore reliance on health care systems. However, the direct relationship between cognitive function and utilization of Veterans Health Administration (VHA) SUD and other VHA health care services has not been evaluated. We sought initial evidence as to whether neurocognitive performance relates to repeated health care engagement in Veterans as indexed by estimated VHA care costs.
Methods: Neurocognitive performance in 76 Veterans being treated for SUD was assessed using CNS-Vital Signs, a commercial computerized cognitive testing battery, and related to histories of outpatient and inpatient/residential care costs as estimated by the VHA Health Economics Resource Center.
Results: After controlling for age, an aggregate metric of overall neurocognitive performance (Neurocognition Index) correlated negatively with total VHA health care costs, particularly with SUD-related outpatient care costs but also with non-mental health-related care costs. Barratt Impulsiveness Scale scores also correlated positively with total VHA care costs.
Conclusions: In Veterans receiving SUD care, higher impulsivity and lower cognitive performance were associated with greater health care utilization within the VHA system. This suggests that veterans with SUD who show lower neurocognitive performance are at greater risk for continued health problems that require healthcare engagement. Cognitive rehabilitation programs developed for brain injury and other neurological conditions could be tried in Veterans with SUD to improve their health outcomes.
背景:患有药物使用障碍(SUD)的退伍军人由于长期使用药物和酒精造成的神经毒性影响,再加上很多情况下都有脑外伤(TBI)病史,因此出现认知问题的风险很高。这些问题反过来又可能导致吸毒成瘾复发,降低对医疗自我护理方案的依从性,从而减少对医疗保健系统的依赖。然而,认知功能与退伍军人健康管理局 (VHA) SUD 及其他退伍军人健康管理局医疗保健服务利用率之间的直接关系尚未得到评估。我们正在寻找初步证据,以证明神经认知能力是否与退伍军人重复参与医疗保健服务有关,并以估计的退伍军人医疗保健费用为指标:我们使用 CNS-Vital Signs(一种商用计算机化认知测试电池)对 76 名接受 SUD 治疗的退伍军人的神经认知能力进行了评估,并将其与退伍军人管理局健康经济资源中心估算的门诊和住院/住宿护理费用历史记录联系起来:在对年龄进行控制后,整体神经认知性能的综合指标(神经认知指数)与退伍军人事务部的医疗费用总额呈负相关,尤其是与精神分裂症相关的门诊医疗费用,但也与非精神健康相关的医疗费用呈负相关。巴拉特冲动量表(Barratt Impulsiveness Scale)得分也与退伍军人医疗管理局的总医疗费用呈正相关:结论:在接受 SUD 治疗的退伍军人中,较高的冲动性和较低的认知能力与退伍军人医疗保健系统内较高的医疗保健使用率相关。这表明,神经认知能力较低的患有药物滥用症的退伍军人更有可能持续出现健康问题,需要接受医疗保健服务。针对脑损伤和其他神经系统疾病开发的认知康复计划可试用于有药物依赖性的退伍军人,以改善他们的健康状况。

The prevalence and influence of gangs on adolescents and young adults remain a concern in Western Cape, South Africa-particularly as they have one of the largest gang presence. While less attention has been focused on young women, there is a need to elucidate the relationship between gang exposure and health behaviors, such substance use, in addition to understanding whether becoming a caregiver impacts this relationship. This study uses baseline data from 496 participants enrolled in a NIDA-funded R01 trial that recruited young women aged 16 to 19 who were out of school and reported recent alcohol or other drug use and sexual risk behavior. At enrollment, a risk behavior survey was administered, and urine drug screening was conducted. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were conducted to examine baseline associations between childbirth, a gang exposure index based on eight items, and positive drug screens of the most prevalent drugs in the Western Cape (marijuana, methaqualone, and methamphetamine). At enrollment, approximately 39% of the sample had a positive urine screen for marijuana, 17% for methaqualone, and 11% for methamphetamine. Additionally, 28% had ever given birth. While only 6% reported ever being a member of a gang, most reported exposure to gangs through their physical and social environments. For all three drugs, gang exposure was associated with statistically significantly higher odds of a positive screen. Every one-point increase in the gang exposure index was associated with a 31% increase in the odds of a positive marijuana screen (p < .001), a 26% increase for methaqualone (p = 0.005) and a 37% increase in the odds of a positive methamphetamine screen (p < .001). Ever given birth was associated with lower odds of marijuana use (adjusted odds ratio [AOR]: 0.63; 95% CI: 0.42-0.96), but it was not associated with methaqualone or methamphetamine use. The findings suggest that exposure to gangs through young women's social and physical environment is positively associated with drug use. Childbirth was also protective for marijuana use, indicating there may be something unique about this type of drug, such as one's ability to more easily stop use. Although very few young women reported gang membership, a majority reported some exposure, indicating the need to address how pervasive this exposure is and the potential risk.

Objective: To identify faith-based leaders' (FBLs') knowledge, perceptions, and questions about syringe services programs (SSPs).
Methods: We conducted a one-time, national online survey of 461 Christian FBLs August-September 2022.
Results: 56% of FBLs agreed they support having SSPs in their communities; only 7% strongly disagreed. We identified 15 main questions FBLs have about SSPs. We found statistically significant differences based on FBL Protestant affiliations. Mainline FBLs are more knowledgeable about SSPs, likely to believe a larger number of SSP services would benefit their community, supportive of SSPs, interested in data related to SSPs, and likely to look to local public health officials to shape their opinions on SSPs compared with non-mainline FBLs.
Conclusions: SSP advocates can address questions that FBLs have about SSPs before beginning outreach. By understanding common Protestant denominational affiliations, advocates can focus initial engagement efforts on FBLs in their communities who are more likely to support SSPs. Our findings suggest that local public health officials can influence FBLs' opinions about SSPs.
