Evaluating risk factors and protective clinical interventions for opioid use disorder and overdose in American Indian/Alaska Native populations
American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) populations often experience higher rates of opioid use disorder (OUD) and opioid overdose deaths compared to other racial/ethnic groups. This study evaluates modifiable risk factors and protective clinical interventions for OUD and overdose prevention interventions among AI/AN patients to understand potential points of intervention. This retrospective cohort study utilized electronic health record data from …
Opioid misuse and sexually transmitted infections among U.S. college students
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and opioid misuse are co-occurring concerns among U.S. young adults. We assessed the association between lifetime opioid misuse and past-year chlamydia/gonorrhea diagnosis among U.S. college students and described condom use and sexual partner number in relation to opioid misuse and STI diagnosis. We analyzed American College Health Association-National College Health Assessment (ACHA-NCHA III) survey data f…
Racial/ethnic differences in the association between suicidal ideation and mental health service utilization
The association between SI and MHSU varies by race and ethnicity among U.S. college students. Campus mental health strategies may benefit from tailored approaches to equitably reduce barriers to care in groups where the SI-MHSU association appears weaker relative to NH White students. Future research should identify mechanisms underlying these differences in utilization

The impact of increased telehealth use on the treatment of substance use disorder during the Covid-19 pandemic
TH modalities showed increased SUD-related outpatient visits without increasing adverse outcomes, indicating its potential as a sustainable alternative to in-person care. This study highlights the need for further research on TH efficacy for SUD-specific populations and supports the continued integration of telehealth in SUD treatment post-pandemic
Associations between psychedelic use and adverse outcomes in substance use disorders
In this large national cohort, psychedelic use, particularly when combined with anesthetic and outpatient care, was associated with reduced adverse health outcomes among people with SUD. These findings support further investigation into psychedelic-based interventions within integrated treatment frameworks
Demographic and socioeconomic factors influencing the adoption of telehealth services for substance use treatment
The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the adoption of telehealth (TH) for substance use disorder (SUD) treatment, but disparities in TH access remain. Using data from the 2021 and 2022 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), we analyzed demographic and socioeconomic predictors of TH utilization among adults receiving SUD treatment. It should be noted that NSDUH 2021 and NSDUH 2022 are not comparable for the aims of the current study due to ne…

Sexuality and Gender Identity Inequities in Substance Use Disorder and Its Treatment among American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian College Students
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to investigate inequities in substance use disorder (SUD) diagnosis, opioid misuse, marijuana misuse, SUD treatment utilization, and utilization of university mental health services among sexual and gender minority (SGM) American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian (AI/AN/NH) college students. METHODS: Data consisting of 8,103 AI/AN/NH students' responses to the American College Health Association's Na…
Associations between problematic internet use and substance misuse among US college students
A trend analysis of the prevalence of opioid misuse, social support, and suicide attempt among American Indian/Alaska native high school students in New Mexico
No significant trend was observed for suicide attempt. We observed a significant decreasing trend in opioid misuse between 2009 through 2017 but a significant increase from 2017 to 2019. A higher level of maternal education (college or above), and an A or B school grade performance were protective against both opioid misuse and suicide attempt
Trends in the Use of Naltrexone for Addiction Treatment among Alcohol Use Disorder Admissions in U.S. Substance Use Treatment Facilities
Naltrexone remains underutilized for AUD, and factors that influence prescription of medication are multifaceted. This study may contribute to the creation of effective interventions aimed at reducing naltrexone disparities for AUD
Factors associated with the availability of tailored programs for LGBT clients in substance use disorder treatment facilities in the U.S. from 2008 to 2018
This paper examines the factors that are associated with the availability of tailored programs for LGBT clients in substance use disorder (SUD) treatment facilities in the U.S. from 2008 to 2018. Associations were determined by using pooled odds ratios overtime from multivariable logistic regression modeling utilizing the 2008–2018 data from the U.S. National Survey of Substance Abuse Treatment Services (N-SSATS). In 2018, roughly one in five fac…
Associations between discrimination and substance use among college students in the United States from 2015 to 2019
Racial Disparities in Covid‐19 Mortality Among Essential Workers in the United States
Racial disparities are apparent in the impact of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) in the United States, yet the factors contributing to racial inequities in COVID‐19 mortality remain controversial. To better understand these factors, we investigated racial disparities in COVID‐19 mortality among America's essential workers. Data from the American Community Survey and Current Population Survey was used to examine the correlation between the pre…
Naive Forecast for Covid-19 in Utah Based on the South Korea and Italy Models-the Fluctuation between Two Extremes
Differences in jurisdictional public health actions have played a significant role in the relative success of local communities in combating and containing the COVID-19 pandemic. We forecast the possible COVID-19 outbreak in one US state (Utah) by applying empirical data from South Korea and Italy, two countries that implemented disparate public health actions. Forecasts were created by aligning the start of the pandemic in Utah with that in Sout…
What Protective Health Measures Are Americans Taking in Response to Covid-19? Results from the Covid Impact Survey
With the emergence of the novel SARS-CoV-2 and the disease it causes; COVID-19, compliance with/adherence to protective measures is needed. Information is needed on which measures are, or are not, being undertaken. Data collected from the COVID Impact Survey, conducted by the non-partisan and objective research organization NORC at the University of Chicago on April, May, and June of 2020, were analyzed through weighted Quasi-Poisson regression m…
Trends in Opioid Misuse among Marijuana Users and Non-Users in the U.S. from 2007–2017
Prescription-opioid misus e continues to be a significant health concern in the United States. The relationship between marijuana use and prescription-opioid misuse is not clear from the extant literature. This study examined national trends in prescription-opioid misuse among marijuana users and non-users using the 2007-2017 National Survey on Drug Use and Health. Cochran-Armitage tests were used to assess the statistical significance of changes…
Examination of health behaviours in a dynamic population
BACKGROUND: An increasing USA population, especially as a result of foreign immigration, has been the recent focus of healthcare research and policy debate. However, little is known about domestic immigration and its impact on the measures of health conditions and behaviours used to develop and evaluate public health policies and programmes. The objective of this research is to compare health conditions and behaviours between domestic immigrants …
A Theory-Driven Approach to Tree-Ring Standardization
One of the main elements of dendrochronological standardization is removing the biological trend, i.e. the progressive decline of ring width along a cross-sectional radius that is caused by the corresponding increase in stem size and tree age over time. The “conservative” option for removing this biological trend is to fit a modified negative exponential curve (or a straight line with slope ≤ 0) to the ring-width measurements. This method is base…
