Introduction: Tobacco consumption is among the biggest public health concerns globally, causing disease, disability, premature deaths with additional economic, social and environmental burden. The COVID-19 pandemic led to a nationwide lockdown in India which affected tobacco consumption due to various reasons. Objectives: This community-based-cross-sectional study aimed to assess the change in patterns of tobacco use during and after the lockdown. It also attempted to assess access to tobacco, withdrawal symptoms experienced, and perceptions about association of tobacco use with COVID-19. Methods: The study was conducted in Aliganj, an urbanized village, in South Delhi. 140 adults(aged >15 years) who used tobacco before the lockdown, residing in Aliganj were included in the study. Data was analysed using SPSS-21. Results: The prevalence of change in pattern of tobacco use during lockdown was 71.4% (66.7% smokers, 77.4% smokeless tobacco(SLT) users, 73.3% dual users). Quitting tobacco reported by 27.8% smokers, 30.2% SLT users, 13.3% dual users. A change in pattern after lockdown reported by 49.3% (45.8% smokers, 45.3% SLT users, 80% dual users). 46.2% reported experiencing withdrawal symptoms. Difficult availability of tobacco during lockdown reported by 60.0% and unavailability by 15.2%. Increased risk of COVID-19 infection among smokers and higher risk of developing severe disease perceived by 51.4% and 64.3%, respectively. Conclusion: Clear impact of lockdown on tobacco use is indicated by the difference between change in tobacco use pattern during and after lockdown. Lockdown restrictions led to decreased income, increased prices and decreased availability of tobacco, which were major reasons for changed pattern during lockdown. Lifting of restrictions (post lockdown period) resulting in return to regular pricing, availability of tobacco products and lack of support for those who experienced withdrawal symptoms, caused return to old patterns of usage after lockdown. The factors identified in this study, if translated to policy change, might be effective in reducing tobacco usage during the pandemic and beyond.. low-income families with the diversion of family income used to meetessential household expenses. The COVID-19 pandemic led to a nationwide lockdown from 25th March’20 in India.

Introduction: The COVID - 19 pandemic has interfered with innumerable services in different sectors of the healthcare industry, including the opioid use disorder recovery community. This community-based empirical study explored the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the mutually reinforcing variable of low social capital on the distribution of medication - assisted peer support. Methods: Six interviews with leaders of a combined medication - assisted and peer support group were conducted to identify the impact of COVID - 19 and low social capital on the substance use disorder recovery community. Specifically, the recovery community is incarcerated individuals receiving buprenorphine treatments and individuals who have been released into the community.

Supplementation of various substances is sometimes recommended without sufficient indications. To decide whether a supplementation is needed, the question should be answered whether there is a deficiency, and if there is, whether it can be compensated by diet. Magnesium (Mg) deficiency has been associated with cardiovascular diseases, hypertension, stroke, certain neuropsychiatric and metabolic conditions. Hypomagnesemia is above-average in alcoholism; however, alcoholics should not be a priori assumed to have Mg deficiency. Mild depletion does not necessarily require specific therapy. Wherever possible, the oral route of supplementation is preferable. The parenteral route is mandatory in severe Mg deficiency. Hypermagnesemia may result from excessive supplementation. Intravenous infusions of Mg-containing solutions and some other invasive procedures have been used in the former Soviet Union without sufficient indications. The infusion therapy has been recommended also in moderately severe alcohol withdrawal syndrome. In conditions of suboptimal procedural quality assurance, endovascular and other invasive manipulations can lead to the transmission of viral hepatitis, which occurred to treated alcoholic patients. A combination of viral and alcoholic liver injury is unfavorable. It has been suggested to include Mg in routine blood ionograms. Mg contents in different foodstuffs

Background: Patients with substance use disorders (SUDs) make up nearly one-third (29.1%) of hospitalized patients in the United States. They also have double the 30-day readmission and emergency department visit rates compared to those without SUDs. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services has penalized hospitals $3 billion for higher 30-day readmission rates. Addiction medicine consultation has been shown to reduce 30-day readmission. However, their impact on Hospital length of stay remains largely unknown. Methods: We compared admissions of repeat utilizer patients at Stanford Hospital with an ICD-10 diagnosis of a SUD and compared the 30-day readmission rate and length of stay in patients with and without an addiction medicine consult. Results: The 30-day readmission rate and average LOS was 10.4% and 6.11 days for those that received a consult compared to 25.3% and 6.16 days in those that did not. Medicaid and Medicare patients made up 70.3% and 19.0% of the population, and addiction medicine consultation was found to be associated with a

Abstract In response to the problem of the social integration of masturbation groups, existing studies have simplified it into a one-way, passive correction process, which has mixed heterogeneous organizational groups and ignored the interactive meanings displayed by several in this process. Through the participatory observation and in-depth interviews with the masturbation abstainers in the network group organization, this article presents the abstinence process of the masturbation group in the internet platform. The qualitative study found that the use of symbols by Internet organizations with the experience of “evil sex” and “moral irrationality” has strengthened the stigma of the masturbation group, but at the same time provided a religious compensatory role for quit masturbation. Religious compensation within a certain period of time formed a moral order and strengthened self-identification. In essence, the order established by the network organization is supported by the “sex addiction-Buddhism” interpretation system proposed by the administrator. With the change of power within the network organization, the original firm interpretation system quickly formed a new discourse. This change of management has not triggered conflicts between masturbation guards and the maintenance of the old system but has been accepted because the moral constraints and health regulations in the new interpretation system are still orderly. This acceptance process clearly demonstrates the constant desire of the masturbator for security and certainty and the desire for the order to accommodate his own qualities.

Abstract This study explored the stigma toward individuals with sexual addiction and how it compared to gambling addiction, alcohol addiction, and depression in both males and females. Undergraduate students (N = 241) were assigned to read one of eight vignettes (mental illness x gender) and completed quantitative stigma measures (e.g., social distance). Results showed that alcohol addiction was the most stigmatized, followed closely by gambling addiction. Sexual addiction and depression had similar levels of stigma. Participants were less stigmatizing toward females with sexual addiction, and no other gender differences emerged. Additional variables and measures (e.g., perceived causes) were also explored.

Abstract Although paraphilias encompass a broad range of sexual interests, they often are regarded broadly as maladaptive. Doing so, however, may conceal relatively well-adjusted and satisfying forms of sexuality. Participants were recruited through Amazon Mechanical Turk and completed online questionnaires assessing paraphilic interests, sexual satisfaction, resilience, and attachment. Participants were 614 adults, aged 19 to 30 years (M = 26.08, SD = 3.18). Regression analyses demonstrated that atypical paraphilias, paraphilias related to nonconsensual sexual activities, and paraphilias related to BDSM explained a significant proportion of variance in sexual satisfaction. Findings suggest directions on the conceptualization and treatment of paraphilias.

Abstract Helping someone consider what it might be like to desist from an ingrained, highly-prized, sexually-compulsive behavior is challenging. To help a client move toward such a goal, it may be helpful to break down the process of refraining into two parts or subsequences: first, the moment of choosing not to engage in the pleasure-seeking behavior(s); and second, the moments after one has chosen not to engage. This “second moment” is not often addressed granularly in intervention models because in a sense, it seems like a negative space, a void. It presumes the hard work and mental energy of desisting has already occurred. But we may conceptualize the “moment(s) after” as forming a temporal, affective, and psychological space in which the client needs specific help, support, and tools. This article uses theoretical and casework material to demonstrate how such a “two-step” model can help clients envision and prepare for the challenges of ceasing sexually addictive behaviors by also getting them in touch with what may follow an episode marked by inhibition.

Abstract To examine the effectiveness of a combination treatment for hypersexual disorder (HD), using regular involvement with a 12-step program related to sexual behavior and weekly individual psychotherapy, this qualitative study recruited volunteers with minimum three-year concurrent experience of the two interventions and minimum two-year abstinence from unwanted sexual behavior. Transcript analysis of interviews with four participants revealed the strength of 12-step meeting attendance and active involvement with a sponsor. The analysis further revealed the complementary benefit of individual psychotherapy, including inherent tension between the two interventions. The discussion section addresses, among other things, the clinical importance to treat clients’ dysregulation.

Abstract Much of the research on treatment of sexual offenders is focused on contact sexual offenses, which include physical contact with a victim. Conversely, there is a dearth of literature on effective psychological interventions for individuals who commit non-contact sexual offenses.
