Reproductive health consequences of criminal legal involvement for women who use drugs in Taiwan
The experience of receiving smoking cessation services in individuals who smoke cigarettes in Taiwan
With an associated mortality of 8 million per year, the hazards of smoking make it one of the most concerning public health problems worldwide. To reduce the public health burden, smoking cessation programs have been implemented in various locations, including Taiwan. However, the experience of individuals receiving smoking cessation services remains poorly understood. In this study, we explored first-hand experience, feelings, and expectations o…
Prospective association of interventions for at-risk families with illicit drug use among young students in Taiwan
The impact of child maltreatment intervention on healthcare underutilization in at-risk young children
Harm from others' drinking among young adults in Taiwan
Trends in the use and nonmedical use of sedatives-hypnotics in the population aged 12 to 64 years in Taiwan
Background Many countries, including Taiwan, have tightened regulations on prescribing sedatives-hypnotics over the concern of their associated adverse health effects. However, it remains seldom investigated whether different age-sex strata have differential trends in national surveys over time for either the use or nonmedical use (NMU) of sedatives-hypnotics. Comparing Taiwan’s two national surveys in 2014 and 2018, we aimed to examine (1) the p…
Early predictors for maltreatment-related injuries in infancy and long-term mortality
Introduction Incidence, health consequences, and social burden associated with child maltreatment appeared to be borne disproportionately by very young children. We conducted a population-based data linkage study to explore child- and family-level factors that affect receiving different diagnoses of maltreatment injuries and investigate excessive mortality throughout toddlerhood. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study comprising 2.2 mi…
Body-Weight Gain in Women During Smoking Cessation Is a Sex-Specific Predictor of 6-Month Abstinence
Background: Smoking behavior differs between the sexes. Weight control is one of the main reasons leading to tobacco abuse in women but not in men. Studies on the predictive factors of cessation failure between sexes are scarce. This study is aim to investigate whether there are sex differences in the effect of weight gain on smoking cessation rate. Methods: Participants in the smoking-cessation program at a Medical Center in Taiwan between 2018 …
Urban‐Rural Differences in Depression Literacy Among High School Teachers in the Kingdom of Eswatini
BACKGROUND: Concerns have been raised over teachers' mental health literacy in low-income countries and lower- and middle-income countries wherein pediatric mental health resources are limited. This study aims to investigate adolescent depression literacy among teachers in Eswatini and to explore the role of urbanicity. METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional survey in 59 public high schools in Eswatini in 2019-2020. Data were collected by a pape…
Men’s decrease and women’s increase in harmful alcohol use from the 2014 to 2018 national surveys in Taiwan
Residential Socioeconomic Environments and Areca Nut Use in Taiwan
Background While the association between residential socioeconomic environments and the use of globally common substances such as alcohol and tobacco has been well documented in Western countries, it remains little known about regionally important substances, such as areca nut in Asia. Objective: This study was aimed to develop residential environmental indicators in the context of Taiwan and examine their associations with areca nut use, in comp…
Early sexual initiation and risky sexual practices among alcohol- and tobacco-using young adults in Taiwan
Early sexual initiators were more likely to engage in risky sexual practices and preceding-sex use of illicit drugs partially explained this relationship, calling for more attention to this population's sexual health
Mis-anaesthetized society
Positive and negative ketamine expectancies were associated in opposite directions with ketamine use, independent of early-onset use of tobacco or alcohol. Our results indicate ketamine expectancies as possible targets for future intervention and prevention of ketamine use, with a less confrontational feedback on decreasing an individual's positive expectancies is essential in preventing young people from the initiation of ketamine use
Inadequate prenatal care utilization among women with and without methadone-treated opioid use disorders in Taiwan
Differences in prevalence, socio-behavioral correlates, and psychosocial distress between club drug and hard drug use in Taiwan
Factors in Maintaining a Stable Patient–Physician Relationship among Individuals with Schizophrenia
Residential environments, alcohol advertising, and initiation and continuation of alcohol consumption among adolescents in urban Taiwan
These findings suggest that local social economic status, alcohol access, and institutional resource and individual media exposure affect underage drinking behaviors in Taiwan. We discuss potential public health implications for place-based interventions. Future research on place, media, and adolescent alcohol consumption in Asian contexts is warranted
Community social capital on the timing of sexual debut and teen birth in Nicaragua
The norm and resource aspects of social capital appeared differentially associated with adolescent sexual and reproductive behaviors. Interventions aiming to tackle unfavorable sexual and reproductive outcomes in young people should be devised and implemented with integration of social process
Comparison of adverse obstetric outcomes and maternity hospitalization among heroin-exposed and methadone-treated women in Taiwan
Sexual Initiation and Emotional/Behavioral Problems in Taiwanese Adolescents
Differential relationships of family drinking with alcohol expectancy among urban school children
Individual tailored strategies that address family influences on alcohol expectancy may be needed in prevention programs targeting drinking behaviors in children
Running away experience and psychoactive substance use among adolescents in Taiwan
More significant running away and a longer time since the first absconding experience were associated with more advanced substance involvement among adolescents now living in a family setting. Once adolescents had left home, they developed additional psychoactive substance problems, regardless of their reasons for running away. These findings have implications for caregivers, teachers, and healthcare workers when trying to prevent and/or interven…
Early-onset drug use and risk for drug dependence problems
Use of ecstasy and other psychoactive substances among school-attending adolescents in Taiwan
From 2004 to 2006, a decline was noted in the prevalence and incidence rate of ecstasy, a leading illegal drug used by school-attending adolescents in Taiwan since the early 2000s. The emerging ketamine use trend may warrant more attention in the future
Prevalence of heroin and methamphetamine male users in the northern Taiwan, 1999–2002
By taking advantage of existing datasets that were incomplete by each alone, the approach of capture-recapture model may be ultimately considered as a tool to estimate the scale of illegal drug use problems. The population of heroin-using males apparently is stably expanding in the northern part of Taiwan in the first years of 21st century
The Adolescent Behavioral Repertoire
In this study, the authors probed the latent structure of the adolescent behavioral repertoire (ABR) and estimated its sociodemographic correlates. The authors drew a nationally representative sample of 12,797 school-attending youth from the 7 countries in the PACARDO region of Latin America: Panama, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and the Dominican Republic. On the basis of the Behavioral Repertoire Self Report scale (Jo…
The Pacardo research project
This report sheds new light on adolescent drug experiences in Panama, the five Spanish-heritage countries of Central America, and the Dominican Republic, and presents the first estimates of school-level clustering of youthful drug involvement in these seven countries. Placed in relation to school survey findings from North America and Europe, these estimates indicate lower levels of drug involvement in these seven countries of the Americas. For e…
Mild Cognitive Impairment in Early Life and Mental Health Problems in Adulthood
Objectives. We assessed the extent to which borderline mental retardation and mental retardation at preschool ages are related to emotional and behavioral problems in young adulthood. We also explored early risk factors for having mental health problems as a young adult that might be related to preschool differences in cognitive ability. Methods. We used data from a cohort of births studied in the Johns Hopkins Collaborative Perinatal Study and f…
