Background: The concurrence of homelessness and alcohol use disorder (AUD) has negative consequences in affected individuals. Managed alcohol programs (MAPs), a harm reduction strategy based on providing regular doses of alcohol to individuals with AUD, have emerged as a potential solution to reduce alcohol-related harms.Objectives: This study examined the impact of a MAP implemented in Barcelona on patterns of alcohol and other psychoactive substance use, health, and quality of life among people who use drugs and were experiencing homelessness. The research also incorporated a gender perspective and focused on individuals who had accessed a residential center.Methods: A descriptive qualitative design was used, employing semi-structured interviews with eight participants who were enrolled in the MAP (three women, five men) and four program professionals. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the resulting data.Results: The domains guiding the study appeared as outcome themes: patterns of use of alcohol and other substances, health, quality of life and impact on female-identified participants. Participants reported improved health due to reduced consumption of alcohol and other substances, better anxiety management, and reconnection to health services. The participants reported enhanced quality of life, including feeling safer, and better use of time, which had been spent on meeting their basic needs. Women reported that a key benefit of the program was living in a sexism-free environment.Conclusion: These results appear to demonstrate that harm reduction strategies prioritizing basic needs and adopting a gender-sensitive perspective can positively impact the health and quality of life of people experiencing homelessness with AUD.

背景:无家可归和酒精使用障碍(AUD)同时存在,会对受影响的个人造成负面影响。酒精管理计划(MAPs)是一种减少伤害的策略,其基础是向酒精使用障碍患者定期提供一定剂量的酒精,它已成为减少酒精相关伤害的一种潜在解决方案:本研究探讨了在巴塞罗那实施的酒精管理计划对无家可归的吸毒者使用酒精和其他精神活性物质的模式、健康和生活质量的影响。研究还纳入了性别视角,并重点关注进入寄宿中心的个人:研究采用了描述性定性设计,对参加 MAP 的 8 名参与者(3 名女性,5 名男性)和 4 名项目专业人员进行了半结构化访谈。采用主题分析法对所得数据进行分析:结果:指导研究的领域是结果主题:酒精和其他物质的使用模式、健康、生活质量以及对女性参与者的影响。参与者报告说,由于减少了酒精和其他物质的消费,健康状况得到了改善,焦虑得到了更好的控制,并重新获得了医疗服务。参与者报告说,生活质量得到了提高,包括感觉更安全,以及更好地利用了用于满足其基本需求的时间。妇女们表示,该计划的一个主要好处是生活在一个没有性别歧视的环境中:这些结果似乎表明,优先考虑基本需求并采用性别敏感视角的减低伤害策略可以对患有 AUD 的无家可归者的健康和生活质量产生积极影响。

Background: Long-term use of supraphysiologic doses of anabolic-androgenic steroids (AAS) has been associated with impaired visuospatial memory in young men but little is known about its cognitive effects in middle-aged men.Objectives: We compared cognition in middle-aged men with histories of long-term AAS use and age-matched non-users.Methods: We administered cognitive tests from the CANTAB battery to 76 weightlifters aged 37-60 years (mean [SD] 48.5 [6.5] years), of whom 51 reported at least 2 years of cumulative AAS use and 25 reported no AAS exposure.Results: We found no significant AAS user versus non-user group differences on visuospatial, verbal memory, emotional recognition, or executive function tasks (corrected p's ≥ .00089; effect sizes ≤ .5).Conclusions: Our null visuospatial task findings contrast with our prior younger cohort study (mean age 37.1 [7.1] years), in which we found impaired visuospatial task performance in people who use AAS, and with other reports of cognitive impairments in younger men use AAS. Men who use AAS may develop early visuospatial memory deficits that stabilize by middle age while middle-aged non-users' performance may "catch up" due to normal age-related visuospatial declines. Similar effects could contribute to our null findings on other tasks. Between-study cohort substance use differences or environmental factor differences that modify cognition, such as study geographical location and time of year, also could contribute to our discordant findings. Since young adult male AAS users experience increased mortality from unnatural causes, improving our understanding of AAS cognitive effects in this age group is important.

背景:长期使用超生理剂量的合成代谢雄性类固醇(AAS)与年轻男性视觉空间记忆受损有关,但对其对中年男性认知的影响却知之甚少:目的:我们比较了有长期服用 AAS 史的中年男性与年龄匹配的非服用者的认知能力:我们对年龄在 37-60 岁(平均 [SD] 48.5 [6.5] 岁)的 76 名举重运动员进行了 CANTAB 测试中的认知测试,其中 51 人报告至少有 2 年的 AAS 累积使用史,25 人报告未接触过 AAS:结果:我们发现,在视觉空间、言语记忆、情绪识别或执行功能任务上,AAS使用者与非使用者组之间没有明显差异(校正P≥0.00089;效应大小≤0.5):我们的视觉空间任务无效研究结果与我们之前的年轻队列研究(平均年龄为 37.1 [7.1] 岁)形成了鲜明对比,在该研究中,我们发现使用雌激素的人的视觉空间任务表现受损,这也与其他关于使用雌激素的年轻男性认知障碍的报告形成了鲜明对比。使用安非他明类兴奋剂的男性可能在早期就出现了视觉空间记忆缺陷,到中年时这种缺陷趋于稳定,而未使用安非他明类兴奋剂的中年男性的表现则可能因与年龄相关的正常视觉空间能力下降而 "迎头赶上"。类似的影响也可能导致我们在其他任务上的结论为空。研究队列之间的药物使用差异或改变认知的环境因素差异,如研究的地理位置和时间,也可能导致我们的研究结果不一致。由于AAS的年轻男性使用者因非正常原因导致的死亡率增加,因此提高我们对AAS对这一年龄组的认知影响的认识非常重要。

Background: Rural and frontier communities face high rates of opioid use disorders (OUDs). In 2021, the Rural Addiction Implementation Network (RAIN) sought to establish a rural hospital/clinic-system practice-based research network (RH-PBRN) to facilitate implementation of evidence-based addiction-related prevention, treatment, and recovery (PTR) services to reduce the morbidity of OUD and substance use disorder (SUD) in rural communities.Objective: To describe the goals and implementation of PTR activities of RAIN, a novel RH-PBRN.Methods: RAIN identified teams of external/internal facilitators at four rural hospitals/clinic-networks to achieve at least 15 PTR activities involving OUD and other SUDs. RAIN utilized an implementation-facilitation approach: facilitators assessed the implementation environment and promoted interventions to overcome barriers to PTR implementation. Other interventions included site visits, community of learning calls, and e-communication. RAIN assessed and recorded facilitators and barriers to implementation, milestone attainment, and outcomes of PTR activities. At 18 months, we queried facilitators about the fidelity and implementation of RAIN activities.Results: RAIN established an HP-PBRN in four sites (Idaho, Montana, Utah, and Wyoming). Within the HP-PBRN, 20 PTR activities were established (p = 7, T = 10, R = 3; range 3-7 per site). Barriers to implementation of PTR activities included competing clinical demands, especially due to COVID-19, lack of dedicated effort for staff at sites, and stigma of addiction and its treatment. Facilitators of implementation included the use of trained expert facilitators and communication between the sites.Conclusions: RAIN implemented 20 addiction-related PTR activities in four rural hospitals/clinic-networks. RAIN's intervention model could be replicated to address addiction-related harms in other rural communities.

背景:农村和边疆社区的阿片类药物使用失调(OUDs)发病率很高。2021 年,农村成瘾实施网络(RAIN)试图建立一个农村医院/诊所系统实践研究网络(RH-PBRN),以促进实施以证据为基础的成瘾相关预防、治疗和康复(PTR)服务,从而降低农村社区 OUD 和药物使用障碍(SUD)的发病率:描述新型 RH-PBRN RAIN 的目标和 PTR 活动的实施情况:RAIN 在四家农村医院/诊所网络中确定了外部/内部促进者团队,以实现至少 15 项涉及 OUD 和其他 SUD 的 PTR 活动。RAIN 采用了一种实施促进方法:促进者对实施环境进行评估,并推动干预措施,以克服实施 PTR 的障碍。其他干预措施包括现场访问、社区学习电话和电子通信。RAIN 评估并记录了实施的促进因素和障碍、里程碑的实现情况以及 PTR 活动的成果。在 18 个月时,我们向促进者询问了 RAIN 活动的忠实度和实施情况:RAIN 在四个地点(爱达荷州、蒙大拿州、犹他州和怀俄明州)建立了 HP-PBRN。在 HP-PBRN 中,共开展了 20 项 PTR 活动(P = 7,T = 10,R = 3;每个地点的范围为 3-7 项)。实施 PTR 活动的障碍包括相互竞争的临床需求(尤其是 COVID-19)、医疗点员工缺乏专门的努力以及对成瘾及其治疗的偏见。实施的促进因素包括使用训练有素的专家促进者以及各医疗点之间的沟通:RAIN 在四家农村医院/诊所网络中开展了 20 项与成瘾相关的 PTR 活动。RAIN 的干预模式可在其他农村社区推广,以解决与成瘾相关的危害问题。

Background: Although nitrous oxide (N₂O) is increasingly misused recreationally, its use and risks among medical students who have professional access to it are rarely explored.Objectives: To investigate the recreational use of N₂O among medical students in Paris Region (France).Methods: This cross-sectional study used an online questionnaire distributed in 2022 through social networks, to all medical students (undergraduate student from the 2nd year of medical studies to residents until the end of the residency) from the six medical universities in Paris Region. We collected demographic characteristics, patterns of N₂O consumption, co-consumptions, and N₂O training (academic course or self-training). Factors associated with N₂O consumption and complications were analyzed using multivariable logistic regressions.Results: The questionnaires of 444 students (mean age: 25.9 years (SD = 2.69), 75.5% female, and 63.74% residents) were analyzed. Recreational N₂O consumption was reported by 71.85% of students and 20.50% consumed at least monthly. N₂O consumption was associated with being a resident (versus undergraduate student) (adjusted OR (aOR) = 3.07[1.45-6.72]; p < .01), receiving training on N₂O (aOR) = 3.13[1.84-6.24]; p < .01), and consumption of cannabis (aOR = 18.21[3.47-104.26]; p < .01), ecstasy (aOR = NA, p = .048) and poppers (aOR = 13.9[2.64-77.94]; p < .01). Complications (mainly dizziness, paresthesia and burns) were reported in 8.15% of students consuming N₂O. They were associated with consuming more than 10 balloons per intake (aOR = 6.04[1.32-25.00); p < .01) and inversely associated with receiving training (aOR = 0.35[0.14-0.86]; p = .01).Conclusions: Almost three-quarters of medical students experienced recreational N₂O consumption, particularly with poly-drug use. Given that complications were associated with high consumption and lack of education, risk training and screening for N₂O consumption could be beneficial.

背景:尽管一氧化二氮(N₂O)被越来越多地滥用于娱乐,但却很少有人探讨专业医学生使用一氧化二氮的情况及其风险:调查法国巴黎大区医科学生娱乐性使用一氧化二氮的情况:这项横断面研究于 2022 年通过社交网络向巴黎大区六所医科大学的所有医学生(从医学专业二年级的本科生到住院医师,直至住院医师培训结束)发放了一份在线调查问卷。我们收集了人口特征、N₂O 消费模式、共同消费和 N₂O 培训(学术课程或自我培训)。使用多变量逻辑回归分析了与 N₂O 消费和并发症相关的因素:对 444 名学生(平均年龄:25.9 岁(SD = 2.69),75.5% 为女性,63.74% 为居民)的问卷进行了分析。71.85%的学生报告了娱乐性消费 N₂O,20.50%的学生至少每月消费一次。N₂O 消费与住院医师(相对于本科生)(调整 OR (aOR) = 3.07[1.45-6.72]; p p p = .048)和 poppers(aOR = 13.9[2.64-77.94]; p p p = .01)有关:结论:近四分之三的医科学生有娱乐性消费 N₂O的经历,尤其是使用多种药物。鉴于并发症与高消耗量和缺乏教育有关,风险培训和N₂O消耗筛查可能是有益的。

Background: Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) significantly contributes to global morbidity and mortality. The role of inflammatory cytokines in alcohol-induced liver injury is pivotal yet not fully elucidated.Objectives: To establish a causal link between inflammatory cytokines and ALD using a Mendelian Randomization (MR) framework.Methods: This MR study utilized genome-wide significant variants as instrumental variables (IVs) for assessing the relationship between inflammatory cytokines and ALD risk, focusing on individuals of European descent. The approach was supported by comprehensive sensitivity analyses and augmented by bioinformatics tools including differential gene expression, protein-protein interactions (PPI), Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis, and analysis of immune cell infiltration.Results: Our findings reveal that increased levels of stem cell growth factor beta (SCGF-β, beta = 0.141, p = .032) and interleukin-7 (IL-7, beta = 0.311, p = .002) are associated with heightened ALD risk, whereas higher levels of macrophage inflammatory protein-1α (MIP-1α, beta = -0.396, p = .004) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF, beta = -0.628, p = .008) are linked to reduced risk. The sensitivity analyses support these robust causal relationships. Bioinformatics analyses around inflammatory cytokine-associated SNP loci suggest multiple pathways through which cytokines influence ALD.Conclusion: The genetic evidence from this study convincingly demonstrates that certain inflammatory cytokines play directional roles in ALD pathogenesis. These findings provide insights into the complex biological pathways involved and underscore the potential for developing targeted therapies that modulate these inflammatory responses, ultimately improving clinical outcomes for ALD patients.

背景:酒精性肝病(ALD)是导致全球发病率和死亡率的重要原因。炎性细胞因子在酒精诱导的肝损伤中的作用至关重要,但尚未完全阐明:利用孟德尔随机化(MR)框架建立炎性细胞因子与 ALD 之间的因果联系:这项MR研究利用全基因组重大变异作为工具变量(IV),评估炎性细胞因子与ALD风险之间的关系,重点关注欧洲后裔。该方法得到了综合敏感性分析的支持,并得到了生物信息学工具的辅助,包括差异基因表达、蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用(PPI)、基因本体(GO)、京都基因和基因组百科全书(KEGG)富集分析以及免疫细胞浸润分析:我们的研究结果表明,干细胞生长因子β(SCGF-β,β=0.141,p=0.032)和白细胞介素-7(IL-7,β=0.311,p=0.002)水平升高与ALD风险升高有关,而巨噬细胞炎症蛋白-1α(MIP-1α,β=-0.396,p=0.004)和碱性成纤维细胞生长因子(bFGF,β=-0.628,p=0.008)水平升高与风险降低有关。敏感性分析支持这些稳健的因果关系。围绕炎性细胞因子相关 SNP 位点的生物信息学分析表明,细胞因子通过多种途径影响 ALD:本研究的遗传学证据令人信服地表明,某些炎性细胞因子在 ALD 发病机制中起着定向作用。这些发现深入揭示了所涉及的复杂生物通路,并强调了开发调节这些炎症反应的靶向疗法的潜力,从而最终改善 ALD 患者的临床预后。

Background: Medication disposal programs have been promoted as one solution to the opioid crisis, but uptake by community members has been minimal.Objectives: To clarify perceptions of medication disposal options among people who have been prescribed an opioid analgesic in North Carolina to inform interventions that can facilitate the disposal of unused opioids.Methods: In 2022, we conducted focus groups with participants who received an opioid medication in the past year to gain information to develop an intervention related to the disposal of unused opioid medication (12 focus group discussions (FGDs); total N = 37; 30 identified as female, 6 as male, and 1 as another gender). Participants were shown a slide with the Food and Drug Administration's recommended disposal options and asked about their perceptions of each option. Themes were derived using an inductive, thematic, qualitative approach.Results: Seven themes about perceptions of medication disposal programs emerged from the data. Four of the themes reflect potential barriers to medication disposal: failed disposal attempts, lack of sufficient education on proper disposal, unclear meaning of specific disposal language, and concerns about existing disposal options. Three of the themes provide insight on potential facilitators of medication disposal: preference of low-cost disposal options, ease and accessibility among disposal methods, and preferred disposal methods.Conclusion: Patients should be provided clear and consistent guidance from prescribers and dispensing pharmacists on when and how to dispose of unused medications and opportunities to dispose of medications at no cost to the patient.

背景:药物处置计划已被作为阿片类药物危机的一种解决方案加以推广,但社区成员对该计划的接受度却很低:目的:澄清北卡罗来纳州被处方阿片类镇痛药的人群对药物处置选择的看法,为促进未使用阿片类药物处置的干预措施提供信息:2022 年,我们与去年接受过阿片类药物治疗的参与者进行了焦点小组讨论,以获取信息,从而制定与未使用阿片类药物处置相关的干预措施(12 次焦点小组讨论;总人数 = 37;其中 30 人为女性,6 人为男性,1 人为其他性别)。向参与者展示了一张幻灯片,上面有食品与药物管理局推荐的处理方案,并询问他们对每种方案的看法。采用归纳、主题、定性的方法得出了主题:结果:从数据中得出了七个关于对药物处置方案看法的主题。其中四个主题反映了药物处置的潜在障碍:处置尝试失败、缺乏足够的正确处置教育、特定处置语言含义不清以及对现有处置方案的担忧。其中三个主题提供了药物处置的潜在促进因素:低成本处置方案的偏好、处置方法的简易性和可及性以及首选处置方法:结论:处方医生和配药药剂师应为患者提供清晰一致的指导,告知患者何时以及如何处置未使用的药物,并为患者提供免费处置药物的机会。

Background: Rural areas in the United States have been severely impacted by recent rises in substance use related mortality and psychosocial consequences. There is a dearth of treatment resources to address substance use disorder (SUD). Rural recovery houses (RRH) are important services that provide individuals with SUD with an environment where they can engage in recovery-oriented activities, but dropout rates are unacceptably high, and evidence-based interventions such as contingency management (CM) may reduce dropout and improve outcomes for RRH residents. In this paper, we describe the results of a national convening of experts that addressed important issues concerning the implementation of CM within the context of RRHs.Methods: Twelve experts (five female) in the areas of CM, RRH and rural health participated in a one-day facilitated meeting that used nominal group technique to identify expert consensus in three areas as they pertain to RRH: (a) facilitators and barriers to CM implementation, (b) elements necessary for successful program building based on group feedback, and (c) recommendations for future implementation of CM.Results: Several RRH- and system-level barriers and facilitators to implementing CM were identified by the panel, and these were categorized based on the level of importance for and ease of implementation. CM funding, staff and resident buy-in, set policies, education on CM, and consistent fidelity to CM procedures and tracking were identified as important requirements for implementing CM in RRH.Conclusions: We provide recommendations for the implementation of CM in RRH that may be useful in this context, as well as more broadly.

背景:美国农村地区受到近期药物使用相关死亡率和社会心理后果上升的严重影响。解决药物使用障碍(SUD)的治疗资源十分匮乏。农村康复之家(RRH)是一项重要的服务,它为药物滥用障碍患者提供了一个可以参与以康复为导向的活动的环境,但辍学率却高得令人无法接受,而应急管理(CM)等循证干预措施可以减少辍学率并改善农村康复之家居民的治疗效果。在本文中,我们介绍了全国专家会议的成果,会议讨论了在 RRHs 环境下实施应急管理的重要问题:方法:社区医疗、 RRH 和农村健康领域的 12 名专家(5 名女性)参加了为期一天的促进会议,会议采用名义小组技术,在三个与 RRH 相关的领域达成了专家共识:(a)实施社区医疗的促进因素和障碍;(b)根据小组反馈成功建立项目的必要因素;以及(c)对未来实施社区医疗的建议:小组确定了在 RRH 和系统层面实施社区医疗的若干障碍和促进因素,并根据实施的重要程度和难易程度对这些因素进行了分类。在 RRH 中实施社区医疗的重要条件包括:社区医疗资金、员工和居民的认同、既定政策、社区医疗教育以及始终坚持社区医疗程序和跟踪:我们为在 RRH 中实施社区医疗提供了一些建议,这些建议可能在这种情况下以及更广泛的情况下有用。

Background: Longitudinal Measurement Invariance (LMI) is critically important to evaluate changes in alcohol expectancies over time. However, past research has not explored the longitudinal properties of the Spanish Expectancy Questionnaire Short Form (EQ-SF).Objectives: To examine the reliability, sources of validity (structural, invariance across sex, and concurrent validity), and LMI of the Spanish EQ-SF among young adults who engage in binge drinking.Methods: Participants (n = 279; 48.4% female) completed the EQ-SF and, two months later, completed it again along with measures of alcohol use, drinking motives, and protective behavioral strategies (PBS). We performed confirmatory factor analysis for structural validity and measurement invariance analysis for longitudinal and sex stability.Results: The eight-factor intercorrelated model (i.e. social facilitation, fun, sexual disinhibition, tension reduction, antisocial effects, negative emotional states, negative physical effects, and cognitive impairments) provided the best fit (χ2(df) = 497.29(224), CFI = .962, RMSEA = .064, SRMR = .049). This model was invariant across sex and time. Reliability coefficients (Ordinal alpha) for each dimension were consistently strong at both time points (from .72 to .93 at T1 and .73 to .91 at T2). Positive alcohol expectancies at baseline were positively related to alcohol use and drinking motives and negatively related to PBS at follow-up, demonstrating predictive validity.Conclusion: Our results support the temporal invariance of the EQ-SF scores among Spanish young adults who engage in binge drinking. The evidence supports the suitability of this measure for accurately assessing changes in alcohol expectancies over time in interventions aimed at preventing binge drinking in young adults.

背景:纵向测量不变性(LMI)对于评估酒精预期随时间的变化至关重要。然而,过去的研究并未探讨西班牙期望问卷简表(EQ-SF)的纵向特性:目的:研究西班牙EQ-SF在暴饮青年中的可靠性、效度来源(结构效度、性别不变性和并发效度)和LMI:参与者(n = 279;48.4% 为女性)填写了 EQ-SF,两个月后,他们再次填写了 EQ-SF,同时还填写了酒精使用、饮酒动机和保护性行为策略(PBS)的测量结果。我们对EQ-SF的结构有效性进行了确认性因子分析,并对其纵向稳定性和性别稳定性进行了测量不变量分析:八因子相互关联模型(即社交促进、乐趣、性抑制、紧张缓解、反社会影响、负面情绪状态、负面身体影响和认知障碍)的拟合效果最佳(χ2(df) = 497.29(224),CFI = .962,RMSEA = .064,SRMR = .049)。该模型在不同性别和不同时间具有不变性。在两个时间点,每个维度的信度系数(Ordinal alpha)都很高(T1 为 0.72 至 0.93,T2 为 0.73 至 0.91)。基线时的积极酒精预期与酒精使用和饮酒动机呈正相关,而与随访时的 PBS 呈负相关,这证明了预测的有效性:我们的研究结果表明,在暴饮的西班牙年轻人中,EQ-SF 分数具有时间不变性。有证据表明,在旨在预防年轻人暴饮暴食的干预活动中,该方法适用于准确评估酒精预期随时间推移而发生的变化。

Background: Little is known regarding the extent to which substance use disorder (SUD) treatment facilities adopt comprehensive services to meet patients' medical and social needs.Objective: To examine trends in the availability of comprehensive services within outpatient SUD treatment facilities from 2018 to 2022.Methods: We used data from the Mental Health and Addiction Treatment Tracking Repository, a national database of SUD treatment facilities (n = 13,793). We examined the availability of four domains of comprehensive services and four types of SUD treatment services from 2018 to 2022. We conducted bivariate and multivariate logistic regression predicting the availability of a comprehensive service model (defined as having at least one service from each service domain), controlling for organizational and community characteristics.Results: Comprehensive services were increasingly offered from 2018 to 2022. In unadjusted and adjusted models, facilities which were externally accredited (OR: 1.50; 95%CI: 1.30-1.74), accepted Medicaid (OR: 1.51; 95%CI: 1.30-1.74), performed community outreach (OR: 2.05; 95%CI: 1.80-2.33), provided naloxone and overdose education (OR: 3.50; 95%CI: 3.06-3.99), had a robust SUD treatment infrastructure (OR: 2.33; 95%CI; 2.08-2.62), and were located in a county with a lower percentage of White residents (OR: 0.99; 95%CI: 0.99-0.99), a higher percentage of residents in poverty (OR: 1.02; 95%CI: 1.00-1.03), and the Northeast compared with the South (OR: 1.21; 95%CI: 1.01-1.45), had significantly higher odds of adopting a comprehensive service model.Conclusion: Findings highlight the importance of factors reflecting experience with organizational change efforts and enhanced external support. Policymakers working to enhance the uptake of comprehensive services should focus on obtaining the financial and technical support necessary to develop these models.

背景:人们对药物使用障碍(SUD)治疗机构在多大程度上采用综合服务来满足患者的医疗和社会需求知之甚少:研究 2018 年至 2022 年期间门诊 SUD 治疗机构提供综合服务的趋势:我们使用了精神健康和成瘾治疗追踪库(Mental Health and Addiction Treatment Tracking Repository)中的数据,这是一个关于 SUD 治疗机构的全国性数据库(n = 13793)。我们考察了从 2018 年到 2022 年四个领域的综合服务和四种类型的 SUD 治疗服务的可用性。我们进行了双变量和多变量逻辑回归,预测综合服务模式(定义为每个服务领域至少有一项服务)的可用性,同时控制组织和社区特征:从 2018 年到 2022 年,提供的综合服务越来越多。在未调整和调整后的模型中,获得外部认证(OR:1.50;95%CI:1.30-1.74)、接受医疗补助(OR:1.51;95%CI:1.30-1.74)、开展社区外展(OR:2.05;95%CI:1.80-2.33)、提供纳洛酮和用药过量教育(OR:3.50;95%CI:3.06-3.99)、拥有强大的 SUD 治疗基础设施(OR:2.33;95%CI;2.结论:研究结果凸显了反映 SUD 治疗基础设施的重要因素,这些基础设施包括:白人居民比例较低(OR:0.99;95%CI:0.99-0.99);贫困居民比例较高(OR:1.02;95%CI:1.00-1.03);东北部与南部相比(OR:1.21;95%CI:1.01-1.45):研究结果凸显了反映组织变革工作经验和增强外部支持等因素的重要性。致力于提高综合服务普及率的政策制定者应将重点放在获得发展这些模式所需的资金和技术支持上。

Background: Innovative analytic approaches to drug studies are needed to understand better the co-use of opioids with non-opioids among people using illicit drugs. One approach is the Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR), widely applied in environmental epidemiology to study exposure mixtures but has received far less attention in substance use research.Objective: To describe the utility of the BKMR approach to study the effects of drug substance mixtures on health outcomes.Methods: We simulated data for 200 individuals. Using the Vale and Maurelli method, we simulated multivariate non-normal drug exposure data: xylazine (mean = 300 ng/mL, SD = 100 ng/mL), fentanyl (mean = 200 ng/mL, SD = 71 ng/mL), benzodiazepine (mean = 300 ng/mL, SD = 55 ng/mL), and nitazene (mean = 200 ng/mL, SD = 141 ng/mL) concentrations. We performed 10,000 MCMC sampling iterations with three Markov chains. Model diagnostics included trace plots, r-hat values, and effective sample sizes. We also provided visual relationships of the univariate and bivariate exposure-response and the overall mixture effect.Results: Higher levels of fentanyl and nitazene concentrations were associated with higher levels of the simulated health outcome, controlling for age.

背景:为了更好地了解非法药物使用者同时使用阿片类药物和非阿片类药物的情况,需要对药物研究采用创新的分析方法。其中一种方法是贝叶斯核机器回归(BKMR),它被广泛应用于环境流行病学研究暴露混合物,但在药物使用研究中却很少受到关注:描述 BKMR 方法在研究毒品物质混合物对健康结果的影响时的实用性:方法:我们模拟了 200 人的数据。使用 Vale 和 Maurelli 方法,我们模拟了多元非正态分布的药物暴露数据:恶嗪(平均值 = 300 毫微克/毫升,标差 = 100 毫微克/毫升)、芬太尼(平均值 = 200 毫微克/毫升,标差 = 71 毫微克/毫升)、苯二氮卓(平均值 = 300 毫微克/毫升,标差 = 55 毫微克/毫升)和硝氮(平均值 = 200 毫微克/毫升,标差 = 141 毫微克/毫升)的浓度。我们使用三个马尔可夫链进行了 10,000 次 MCMC 采样迭代。模型诊断包括轨迹图、r-hat 值和有效样本量。我们还提供了单变量和双变量暴露-反应及总体混合物效应的直观关系:结果:在控制年龄的情况下,芬太尼和硝基苯浓度越高,模拟健康结果越高。示踪图、r-hat 值和有效样本量统计表明,BKMR 在多个马尔可夫链中具有稳定性:我们对药物混合物的了解往往局限于单药模型的研究。BKMR 提供了一种创新的方法,可用于鉴别哪些物质比其他物质对健康构成更大的风险,并可用于评估单变量、双变量和累积药物对健康结果的影响。

One approach is the Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR), widely applied in environmental epidemiology to study exposure mixtures but has received far less attention in substance use research.<i>Objective:</i> To describe the utility of the BKMR approach to study the effects of drug substance mixtures on health outcomes.<i>Methods:</i> We simulated data for 200 individuals. Using the Vale and Maurelli method, we simulated multivariate non-normal drug exposure data: xylazine (mean = 300 ng/mL, SD = 100 ng/mL), fentanyl (mean = 200 ng/mL, SD = 71 ng/mL), benzodiazepine (mean = 300 ng/mL, SD = 55 ng/mL), and nitazene (mean = 200 ng/mL, SD = 141 ng/mL) concentrations. We performed 10,000 MCMC sampling iterations with three Markov chains. Model diagnostics included trace plots, r-hat values, and effective sample sizes. We also provided visual relationships of the univariate and bivariate exposure-response and the overall mixture effect.<i>Results:</i> Higher levels of fentanyl and nitazene concentrations were associated with higher levels of the simulated health outcome, controlling for age.
