  • Associations Between Structural Stigma and Allostatic Load Among Sexual Minorities

    Robert‐paul Juster, Robert-Paul Juster et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2024

    OBJECTIVE: Structural forms of stigma and discrimination are associated with adverse health outcomes across numerous stigmatized groups, including lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) individuals. However, the biological consequences of structural stigma among LGB populations are understudied. To begin to address this gap, we assessed associations between indicators of structural stigma (i.e., state-level policies) targeting LGB individuals and allos…

  • Exploring Potential Bellwethers for Drug-Related Mortality in the General Population

    Joseph J Palamar, Austin Le et al.ARTICLESubstance Use & Misuse2023

    Background: Drug-related deaths in the US continue to increase. Sentinel surveillance of high-risk populations can provide early warning for shifts in trends. Nightclub/festival attendees have high levels of drug use, so we explored whether use among this population can serve as a potential bellwether or indicator for use-related mortality in the general population.Methods: Trends in past-year cocaine and methamphetamine use were estimated from n…

  • Seasonal Variation of Use of Common Psychedelics and Party Drugs Among Nightclub/Festival Attendees in New York City

    Joseph J Palamar, Caroline Rutherford et al.ARTICLEJournal of Psychoactive Drugs2023

    Few epidemiological studies have focused on seasonal variation in the use of common psychedelics and party drugs among nightclub and festival attendees, typically those who attend electronic dance music (EDM) events. We sought to determine whether the use of different drug types varies seasonally within this population. Across 15 seasons from summer 2017 through fall 2022, we surveyed 3,935 adults entering randomly selected nightclubs and festiva…

    Neighborhood-level effects and poverty are potentially important modifiers, and points of intervention, for maternal mental health outcomes

  • Cohort effects on gender differences in alcohol use in the United States

    Open AccessKatherine M Keyes, Jonathan Platt et al.ARTICLESSM - Population Health2021

    Gender differences in binge drinking have converged in recent cohorts, due in part to faster decreases in consumption among boys in adolescence, and faster increases in consumption among women in young to middle adulthood. Changes in education and occupation explain a portion, but not all, of these differences; the present study examines how attitudes about gender, religion and family additionally explain cohort effects in binge drinking by sex. …

  • Trends in Ketamine Use, Exposures, and Seizures in the United States up to 2019

    Joseph J Palamar, Caroline Rutherford et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health2021References: 7

    Objectives. To determine whether there have been shifts in nonmedical ketamine use, poisonings (“exposures”), and seizures. Methods. We used generalized additive models to detect trends in past-year use (2006–2019), exposures (1991–2019), and seizures (2000–2019) involving ketamine in the United States. Results. There was a quarterly increase in self-reported past-year nonmedical ketamine use in 2006 to 2014 (Β = 0.21; P = .030) and an increase i…

  • County Jail Incarceration Rates and County Mortality Rates in the United States, 1987–2016

    Sandhya Kajeepeta, Caroline Rutherford et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health2020Cited by: 5References: 19

    Objectives. To evaluate the relationship between changes in county jail incarceration rates and subsequent county mortality rates across the United States. Methods. We analyzed county jail incarceration rates from the Bureau of Justice Statistics from 1987 to 2016 for 1884 counties and mortality rates from the National Vital Statistics System. We fit 1-year-lagged quasi-Poisson 2-way fixed-effects models, controlling for unmeasured stable county …

  • Gender and Weight among Thoroughbred Jockeys

    Open AccessPaul T Von Hippel, Caroline Rutherford et al.ARTICLESocius Sociological Research for…2017Cited by: 1References: 18

    Discrimination can damage health by limiting an occupation to persons who are physically unsuited to it. In thoroughbred racing, male jockeys damage their health to reach racing weights, while women who could reach those weights more easily are excluded. The authors estimate the number of U.S. men and women who are light enough to work as jockeys and contrast them with the number of male and female jockeys. The authors contrast the distribution o…
