Implementing digital interventions for co-occurring mental health and alcohol and other drug use problems in health and community settings
Mental health and alcohol and other drug use problems consistently dominate the top causes of disease burden in Australians. eHealth stands to be a key tool in addressing these issues but is not routinely well-integrated into service provision models. This study will evaluate the uptake of the digital ecosystem and website, eCliPSE [electronic Clinical Pathways to Service Excellence], developed to improve the symptoms of mental health and alcohol…
Navigating contested terrain
Lack of alternative housing forces residents to accept harmful institutional control. • Staff relationships and institutional policies mediate place interpretations. • Identical apartment features create sanctuary or cell depending on trauma history. • Place can function as both an enabling and a risk environment simultaneously. • Health outcomes depend on how structural constraints meet personal experiences

Long-term patterns of treatment use for opioid use disorder (OUD)
In one of the longest cohort studies of its kind, we characterised distinct trajectories of treatment use in people with heroin dependence over 18-20-years. Clinicians should be aware of the potential impact of demographics and substance use on long-term treatment use. Despite the well-documented benefits of long-term treatment, some patients may be able to achieve abstinence from opioids without engaging in treatment over the life-course
Management of alcohol and other drug issues in Special Health Accommodation during the Covid ‐19 Delta variant outbreak in Sydney, 2021
In response to community transmission of COVID-19 Delta Variant in New South Wales (NSW), patients were admitted to Special Health Accommodation (SHA) with often complex psychosocial and medical needs including addiction. SHA functioned as a subacute hospital in repurposed apartment blocks and provided integrated health care to people with COVID-19 or close contacts, if otherwise unable to isolate [1]. We reviewed the outcomes of patients who rec…

Baclofen Response in Alcohol Dependent Patients Concurrently Receiving Antidepressants
Background and Aims: There is little information with regards to the efficacy of baclofen among alcohol patients concurrently receiving antidepressants (AD). The present study aimed to conduct a secondary analysis of the moderating role of antidepressants in the BacALD trial which evaluated the efficacy of baclofen to reduce alcohol consumption in alcohol dependent patients. Methods: Alcohol dependent patients ( N = 104) were treated for 12 weeks…
Examining Perceived Stress, Childhood Trauma and Interpersonal Trauma in Individuals With Drug Addiction
The investigation of psychosocial factors in relation to opiate addiction is limited and typically uses binary measures to assess how incidences of childhood trauma correlate with addiction. There has also been a lack of enquiry into how experiences of noninterpersonal versus interpersonal trauma may impact drug use addiction. In this regard, the current study utilized a novel measurement of interpersonal versus noninterpersonal lifetime trauma a…
Constructing Indigenous Autonomy in Plurinational Bolivia
The municipality of Charagua recently became the first autonomía indígena originaria campesina (autonomous indigenous peasant community) in Bolivia under the 2009 plurinational constitution. A coalition of indigenous leaders backed by a majority of voters embraced the change as a vehicle for bolstering local control over key decisions, thereby advancing local preferences for indigenous forms of governance, values, and control over the development…
Visions in conflict
Since their early days in government, and particularly since 2010, President Evo Morales and the Movimiento al Socialismo (MAS) in Bolivia have put forward a vision of state-centered hegemonic change. In this process, they play the role of a vanguard that relies on the extraction of natural resources, agro-industrial expansion, and the ideas of resource nationalism and development while maintaining the institutional structure of the pre-existing …

Living Well, Living Longer
It has long been known that people living with severe mental illness (e.g. schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, or bipolar disorder) have a life expectancy that is 15-25+ years earlier than that of the general population, mostly due to physical health problems such as cardiovascular disease (1-4). However, access to and uptake of appropriate screening and intervention for physical illness is less common in this population (5,6). There is now …

Incidence of primary hepatitis C infection and risk factors for transmission in an Australian prisoner cohort
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is common in prisoner populations, particularly those with a history of injecting drug use (IDU). Previous studies of HCV incidence have been based on small case numbers and have not distinguished risk events in prison from those in the community. HCV incidence was examined in a longitudinal cohort of 488 Australian prisoners with a history of IDU and documented to be seronegative within 12 months prior to enrolm…
Diagnósticos opuestos sobre la izquierda latinoamericana contemporánea
