  • Patterns and 14-year trends in mortality among illicit drug users in Finland

  • Coexisting social conditions and health problems among clients seeking treatment for illicit drug use in Finland

    Open AccessIfeoma N Onyeka, Caryl Beynon et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2013

    The existence of illicit drug use with other social and health problems could lead to increased utilisation and cost of healthcare services. Coexisting social and health problems may interfere with clients' treatment response. Our findings support the call for integration of relevant social, medical and mental health support services within drug treatment programmes

  • The Involvement of Drugs and Alcohol in Drug-Facilitated Sexual Assault

    Open AccessCaryl Beynon, CARYL M BEYNON et al.ARTICLETrauma Violence & Abuse2008

    The rate of drug-facilitated sexual assault (DFSA; when an incapacitating drug is administered surreptitiously to facilitate sexual assault) is perceived to be increasing in the United Kingdom and elsewhere, causing international concern. This article examines evidence that quantifies the contribution of drugs in instances of alleged DFSA, identifies the substances involved, and discusses the implications of these findings. Of 389 studies examine…

  • Factors predicting drop out from, and retention in, specialist drug treatment services

    Open AccessCaryl Beynon, CARYL M BEYNON et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2008

    In combination, the drug treatment systems of the North West achieved the Government's retention target in 2005/06. A number of factors associated with drop out were identified; these should be considered in strategies that aim to improve retention. Drop out and retention are measures that capture the joint effect of many factors. Further work is required to evaluate the effect of deprivation

  • Problematic drug use, ageing and older people

    Open AccessCaryl Beynon, CARYL M BEYNON et al.ARTICLEAgeing and Society2007Cited by: 1References: 17

    In the United Kingdom (UK) and elsewhere, little is known about problematic drug use among older people (defined here as aged 50–74 years), either because few older drug users exist or because they represent a ‘hidden’ population. In this paper, we show that the average age of drug users in contact with treatment services and agency-based syringe exchange programmes (SEPs) in the counties of Cheshire and Merseyside in northwest England is rising.…

  • Trends in drop out, drug free discharge and rates of re-presentation

    Open AccessCaryl Beynon, CARYL M BEYNON et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2006

    Increasing numbers in treatment is associated with an increased proportion dropping out and an ever-smaller proportion DDF. Rates of drop out are significantly higher for those coerced into treatment via the CJ system. Rates of re-presentation are similar for those dropping out and those DDF. Encouragingly, those who need to re-engage with treatment, particularly those who drop out, are doing so more quickly. The impact of coercion on treatment o…
