Aims
To estimate the association between punitive policies for women with substance use during pregnancy and odds of neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) diagnosis among Medicaid‐insured infants, and to estimate this association controlling for the presence of four other policies related to substance use in pregnancy.
Design, Setting and Participants
Analysis of live births in Medicaid claims data...
Aims
To estimate the treated prevalence of mental illness, substance use disorder (SUD) and dual diagnosis and the association between dual diagnosis and fatal and non‐fatal overdose among residents of British Columbia (BC), Canada.
Design
A retrospective cohort study using linked health, income assistance, corrections and death records.
Setting
British Columbia (BC), Canada.
Participants
A...
Background and aims
Up to 95% of pregnant women seeking treatment for alcohol and other drug (AOD) use smoke tobacco. Previous reviews indicate few effective smoking cessation treatments for this group. This updated review aimed to identify and measure the efficacy of smoking cessation interventions trialled among pregnant women in AOD treatment settings who smoke tobacco.
Methods
A narrative synthesis...
Background and Aims
To prevent COVID‐19 transmission, some United States (US) federal regulations on substance use disorder (SUD) treatment were suspended in March 2020. This study aimed to quantify the extent of state‐level policy uptake and the potential number of people with SUD affected by these policy changes across the US, as well as to assess if policy uptake correlated with rates of people...
Aims
To test the hypothesis that exposure to parental substance use disorder is associated with an increased risk of being not in education, employment or training (NEET) in male and female offspring during young adulthood.
Design, setting and participants
A register‐based, national cohort study of 797 376 individuals born between 1984 and 1990, residing in Sweden at age 17 years. Participants...
Background and aims
Genomic and transcriptomic findings greatly broaden the biological knowledge regarding substance use. However, systematic convergence and comparison evidence of genome‐wide findings is lacking for substance use. Here, we combined all the genome‐wide findings from both substance use behavior and disorder (SUBD) and identified common and distinguishing genetic factors for different...
Background and aims
Older people with problematic alcohol use vary in psychosocial functioning, age of onset for problem drinking and use of other drugs. The study measured the differential risks of all‐cause, alcohol‐, polydrug‐ and psychiatric‐related repeated hospitalizations among older people with problematic alcohol use.
Design
A linked register‐based cohort study with discontinuous multiple‐failure...
Background and aims
Family history of substance use disorder (SUD) affects a child's risk of the disorder through both genetic and shared environmental factors. We aimed to estimate the association between parental or older sibling SUD history with the risk of adolescent SUD diagnosis.
Design, setting and participants
We conducted a population‐based cohort study using administrative health‐care...
Background and aims
Women have historically been under‐represented in clinical research, but the extent to which this is true for substance use disorder (SUD) trials is unknown. We aimed to determine the ratio of female:male participation in clinical trials for SUDs and describe the reporting of sex‐specific outcomes from 2010 to 2019.
Design
A retrospective cohort review of clinical trials involving...
