Effects of alcohol-related problems on the costs of frequent emergency department use
Introduction Alcohol-related problems increase the probability of frequent emergency department (ED) use. In this study, we compared the direct healthcare expenses incurred during a single visit among frequent and non-frequent ED users and analyzed the impact of alcohol-related issues in healthcare costs arising from ED usage. Methods The study relied on secondary analyses of economic data from a 1:1 matched case–control study with the primary ai…
The impact of legal cannabis availability on cannabis use and health outcomes
Social disparities in alcohol's harm to others
Unrecorded alcohol use in 33 European countries
Changes in alcohol use during the Covid ‐19 pandemic in Europe
Reduced alcohol consumption during the Covid-19 pandemic
Background: During the COVID-19 pandemic, an increase of heavy alcohol use has been reported in several high-income countries. We examined changes in alcohol use during the pandemic among primary health care (PHC) patients in two middle income countries, Colombia and Mexico. Methods: Data were collected during routine consultations in 34 PHC centres as part of a large-scale implementation study. Providers measured patients' alcohol consumption wi…
Tailoring an evidence-based clinical intervention and training package for the treatment and prevention of comorbid heavy drinking and depression in middle-income country settings
BACKGROUND: Effective interventions exist for heavy drinking and depression but to date there has been limited translation into routine practice in global health systems. This evidence-to-practice gap is particularly evident in low- and middle-income countries. The international SCALA project (Scale-up of Prevention and Management of Alcohol Use Disorders and Comorbid Depression in Latin America) sought to test the impact of multilevel implementa…
Synthetic Cannabinoids and Cannabis
Early, Chronic, and Acute Cannabis Exposure and Their Relationship With Cognitive and Behavioral Harms
Background: Cannabis is the third most consumed drug worldwide. Thus, healthcare providers should be able to identify users who are in need for an intervention. This study aims to explore the relationship of acute, chronic, and early exposure (AE, CE, and EE) to cannabis with cognitive and behavioral harms (CBH), as a first step toward defining risky cannabis use criteria. Methods: Adults living in Spain who used cannabis at least once during the…
Supporting Future Cannabis Policy – Developing a Standard Joint Unit
The standardization of cannabis doses is a priority for research, policy-making, clinical and harm-reduction interventions and consumer security. Scientists have called for standard units of dosing for cannabis, similar to those used for alcohol. A Standard Joint Unit (SJU) would facilitate preventive and intervention models in ways similar to the Standard Drink (SD). Learning from the SD experiences allows researchers to tackle emerging barriers…
Changes in Alcohol Consumption during the Covid-19 Pandemic Are Dependent on Initial Consumption Level
Evidence suggests that changes in alcohol consumption during the first months of the COVID-19 pandemic were unevenly distributed over consumer groups. We investigated possible inter-country differences in how changes in alcohol consumption are contingent on initial consumption (before or at the start of the pandemic), and how changes in consumption translate into possible changes in the prevalence of heavy drinking. We used data from the European…
