Knowledge Translation and the Opioid Crisis
Opioid dosing among patients with 3 or more years of continuous prescription opioid use before and after the CDC opioid prescribing guideline
The revised International Association for the Study of Pain definition of pain
The current International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) definition of pain as “An unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage, or described in terms of such damage” was recommended by the Subcommittee on Taxonomy and adopted by the IASP Council in 1979. This definition has become accepted widely by health care professionals and researchers in the pain field and adopted by several profes…

Suicide Deaths With Opioid Poisoning in the United States
Objectives. To describe trends in suicides with opioid poisoning noted as a contributing cause of death. Methods. Using National Vital Statistics data (1999–2014), we calculated age-adjusted rates of suicide with opioid poisoning (International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision codes T40.0–T40.4) per 100 000 population per year and annual percentage change (APC) in rates. We used Joinpoint regression to examine trends in suicide rates an…
Opioid Poisonings in Washington State Medicaid
BACKGROUND: Opioid poisonings have increased as use of prescription opioid medications have increased. To reduce these poisonings, guidelines for chronic opioid use have been implemented. However, if opioid poisonings occur in individuals who do not have high prescribed doses and who are not chronic opioid users, the current guidelines may need revision. OBJECTIVES: To examine changes in rates of methadone and other opioid poisonings after implem…
From 32 Ounces to Zero
The medicinal use of cannabis is a growing phenomenon in the U.S. predicated on the success of overcoming specific spatial challenges and establishing particular human-environment relationships. This article takes a medical geographic "snapshot" of an urban site in Washington State where qualifying chronically ill and debilitated patients are delivered locally produced botanical cannabis for medical use. Using interview, survey, and observation, …
Age and Gender Trends in Long-Term Opioid Analgesic Use for Noncancer Pain
Objectives. We describe age and gender trends in long-term use of prescribed opioids for chronic noncancer pain in 2 large health plans. Methods. Age- and gender-standardized incident (beginning in each year) and prevalent (ongoing) opioid use episodes were estimated with automated health care data from 1997 to 2005. Profiles of opioid use in 2005 by age and gender were also compared. Results. From 1997 to 2005, age–gender groups exhibited a tota…
Depression Predicts Revascularization Procedures for 5 Years After Coronary Angiography
OBJECTIVE: Depression has been reported to increase cardiac event rates and functional impairment in patients with coronary disease. This article describes the impact of depression on subsequent healthcare utilization for such patients. METHODS: One hundred ninety-eight health maintenance organization patients with stable coronary disease were interviewed after elective angiography using a structured psychiatric diagnostic scale. Cardiac events, …
Cytokines in Depression and Heart Failure
OBJECTIVE: There is a convincing body of evidence linking depression, cardiovascular disease, and mortality. There is also growing evidence that depression is a risk factor for congestive heart failure (CHF) and that CHF patients with major depression have higher rates of mortality and repeat hospitalizations. Currently there are no proposed neurobiological or neuroimmune mechanisms for the comorbidity of heart failure and depression. METHODS: Th…

Depression and Self-Reported Physical Health in Patients With Coronary Disease
OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to define how the relation between depression and self-reported physical health in patients with coronary disease is modified by other patient-centered factors. METHODS: We conducted a prospective cohort study of 111 patients (members of a health maintenance organization) with angiographically documented coronary disease, examining factors (physical symptoms, psychological states and traits, and spousal s…

Performance-Based and Self-Reported Physical Functioning in Low-Functioning Older Persons
This prospective cohort study examines the impact of depressive symptoms on changes in self-reported physical functioning in 574 low-functioning older persons. The data were collected in two waves in 1993 and 1995. Initial levels of depressive symptoms were not predictive for subsequent change in self-reported physical functioning. Changes in self-reported physical functioning were only moderately associated with changes in performance-based phys…
Should Psychiatrists Serve as Gatekeepers for Physician-Assisted Suicide

Self-Efficacy and Self-Reported Functional Status in Coronary Heart Disease
OBJECTIVE: We examine prospectively the role of specific forms of self-efficacy in the physical and role function for patients with coronary heart disease after controlling for the effects of anxiety and depression. METHODS: A 6-month prospective cohort study was conducted after cardiac catheterization of 198 HMO members, demonstrating clinically significant coronary disease. Coronary disease severity was assessed through cardiac catheterization;…
