Household Compositions and Substance Use among Young Adults in the U.S
The prevalence of substance use patterns among U.S. young adults varies by household composition. Those residing solely with unrelated individuals had the highest prevalence of tobacco, binge alcohol, and drug use. The presence of a young adult's own children and a spouse/partner is associated with a lower prevalence of most examined substance use patterns. As household compositions continue to diversify, targeted substance use prevention/treatme…

Prescription Opioid Use, Misuse, and Use Disorders in U.S. Adults: 2015 National Survey on Drug Use and Health
BACKGROUND: Despite the continuing epidemic of opioid misuse, data on the prevalence of prescription opioid use, misuse, and use disorders are limited. OBJECTIVE: To estimate the prevalence of prescription opioid use, misuse, and use disorders and motivations for misuse among U.S. adults. DESIGN: Survey. SETTING: The 2015 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH). PARTICIPANTS: 72 600 eligible civilian, noninstitutionalized adults were selec…
National Trends in the Prevalence and Treatment of Depression in Adolescents and Young Adults
OBJECTIVES: This study examined national trends in 12-month prevalence of major depressive episodes (MDEs) in adolescents and young adults overall and in different sociodemographic groups, as well as trends in depression treatment between 2005 and 2014. METHODS: Data were drawn from the National Surveys on Drug Use and Health for 2005 to 2014, which are annual cross-sectional surveys of the US general population. Participants included 172 495 ado…
Medicaid Expansion Under the Affordable Care Act: Potential Changes in Receipt of Mental Health Treatment Among Low-Income Nonelderly Adults With Serious Mental Illness
Objectives. We designed this study to examine differences in receipt of mental health treatment between low-income uninsured nonelderly adults with serious mental illness (SMI) who were eligible for Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and their existing Medicaid counterparts. Assessing these differences might estimate the impact of the Medicaid expansion efforts under the ACA on receipt of mental health treatment among uninsured nonelder…
Suicidal Ideation Among Community-Dwelling Adults in the United States
Objectives. We examined the prevalence and correlates of past-year suicidal ideation among US community-dwelling adults. Methods. We examined data from 183 100 persons aged 18 years or older (including 9800 sampled adults with past-year suicidal ideation) who participated in the 2008–2011 National Survey on Drug Use and Health. We applied descriptive analyses and pooled and stratified (by age and major depression) multivariate logistic regression…
Mental Health Treatment Patterns Among Adults With Recent Suicide Attempts in the United States
Objectives. We examined mental health treatment patterns among adults with suicide attempts in the past 12 months in the United States. Methods. We examined data from 2000 persons, aged 18 years or older, who participated in the 2008 to 2012 National Survey on Drug Use and Health and who reported attempting suicide in the past 12 months. We applied descriptive analyses and multivariable logistic regression models. Results. In adults who attempted…
A Comprehensive Examination of the Influence of State Tobacco Control Programs and Policies on Youth Smoking
Objectives. We examined the influence of tobacco control policies (tobacco control program expenditures, smoke-free air laws, youth access law compliance, and cigarette prices) on youth smoking outcomes (smoking susceptibility, past-year initiation, current smoking, and established smoking). Methods. We combined data from the 2002 to 2008 National Surveys on Drug Use and Health with state and municipality population data from the US Census Bureau…
Length of Hospice Care among U.S. Adults: 1992–2000
This study examined length of service use among U.S. adult hospice patients based on data from the 1992-2000 National Home and Hospice Care Surveys. With the Kaplan-Meier method, we estimated length of service use of current and discharged hospice patients simultaneously. Using a multivariate Cox proportional hazards model, we examined trends in patients' service use during the 1990s. Findings show that length of service use decreased significant…
Differences in Hospice Use Between Black and White Patients During the Period 1992 through 2000
PURPOSE: We examined differences in hospice use rates among blacks and whites and investigated trends in racial differences in hospice patients during the period 1992 through 2000. We tested differences in length of hospice survival from hospice enrollment to death between black and white patients during this period. METHODS: We analyzed data from the 1991-2000 Underlying and Multiple Cause-of-Death Files and the 1992-2000 National Home and Hospi…
Payment Source and Length of Use Among Home Health Agency Discharges
PURPOSE: Our study compared (1) length of use among home health care (HHC) discharges with Medicare, Medicaid, or private health insurance between 1991 and 2000 and (2) factors associated with length of HHC use among discharges with Medicare, Medicaid, or private health insurance. METHODS: Data were obtained from the 1992, 1994, 1996, 1998, and 2000 National Home and Hospice Care Surveys (n = 18,416). Logistic regressions and stratified analyses …
