Characterizing an intersection between heat-related illness and overdose deaths in Arizona
I knew that they weren't real pills from the doctor”
The findings emphasize the need for improved monitoring of local unregulated drug markets and design of comprehensive, social network-based interventions for information sharing on emerging shifts in fentanyl trends and associated health risks
Methamphetamine Use Practices, Motivations, and Perceived Benefits and Risks
Methamphetamine use has increased across the US. To develop adequate interventions, understanding differences in male and female methamphetamine use is critical. Conducted in Dayton, Ohio, this study explores sex differences in attitudes and practices of methamphetamine use. Between 12/2019 and 11/2021, the study recruited 91 participants. Bivariate analyses were used to identify sex differences. Of the 91 participants, 52.7% were female, 95.6% w…
Characterizing prescription opioid, heroin, and fentanyl initiation trajectories
‘Things that you can’t really suppress’
While numerous studies have established relationships between Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and adult substance use, few qualitative studies have explored the differing ways in which experiences of childhood adversity are emplotted into narratives of drug use and recovery. This paper analyzes qualitative data collected as part of a mixed-methods longitudinal study of people with opioid use disorder. Narratives of adverse childhood experien…
Characteristics of Overdose Deaths Related to Illicitly Manufactured Fentanyl – Arizona, July 2019 – June 2020
Using the Arizona State Unintentional Drug Overdose Reporting System (AZ-SUDORS), the study aims to identify the social and drug characteristics of illicitly manufactured fentanyl (IMF)-related overdose deaths. The data include drug overdose deaths from July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020. Decedents were categorized into four groups by types of opioids detected: (1) IMF-positive; (2) heroin-positive (negative for IMF); (3) pharmaceutical opioid-positiv…
Lay knowledge and practices of methamphetamine use to manage opioid-related overdose risks
Lay efforts to rely on methamphetamine to manage NPF-related overdose risks highlight the need for a continuing expansion of take-home-naloxone programs and implementation of other novel harm reduction approaches in communities affected by NPFs
It’s Also Pushed People to a New Level of Desperation
The purpose of this qualitative study is to characterize the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on drug use experiences among persons who use illicit opioids (PWUO) in Arizona. Between 12/2020 and 05/2021, interviews were conducted via Zoom with 22 PWUO from across Arizona. Participants were recruited through Craigslist and social media ads, referrals by a local harm reduction organization, and other participants. The interviews were transcribed an…

“It’s Crazy What Meth Can Help You Do”
BACKGROUND: Across the U.S., methamphetamine use is expanding among people who use illicit opioids (PWUIO). Motives for methamphetamine use must be contextualized within the experiences of PWUIO, who may use methamphetamine not only to achieve euphoria, but also as a tactic of self-management. The overall aim of this study is to contextualize lay beliefs, practices, and experiences of methamphetamine use as a form of self-treatment of symptoms re…

Methamphetamine Use and Its Correlates among Individuals with Opioid Use Disorder in a Midwestern U.S. City
Background: U.S. is experiencing a surging trend of methamphetamine use among individuals who use opioids. More research is needed to characterize this emerging “twin epidemic.” Objectives: The study aims to identify social and behavioral characteristics associated with methamphetamine use among individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD) in the Dayton, Ohio, area, an epicenter of the opioid crisis and an emerging frontier of methamphetamine epide…

Increases in synthetic cannabinoids-related harms
Sources of Pharmaceutical Opioids for Non-Medical Use among Young Adults
The study uses qualitative and quantitative data to describe sources of pain pills for illicit use among young adult (18- to 23-year-old) users. Respondent-driven sampling was used to recruit 383 individuals in the Columbus, Ohio, area. The sample was almost 50% Caucasian and about 55% male. Qualitative interview participants (n = 45) were selected from the larger sample. Qualitative data suggest that pharmaceutical opioid availability was so per…

Predictors of Depressive Symptomatology Among Rural Stimulant Users
This study examined sociodemographic and drug-related predictors of depressive symptoms among a rural, multistate sample of not-in-treatment stimulant drug users (n=710). Participants were recruited using respondent-driven sampling in Ohio, Arkansas, and Kentucky. The Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) was used to measure symptoms of depression. Moderate to severe depressive symptomatology was reported by 43.0% of the sample. Cumulative logisti…
Methamphetamine Use in Dayton, Ohio
Since the 1990s, methamphetamine manufacturing and use have been spreading into midwestern and southern United States. However, most research on methamphetamine use has been conducted in the western United States. This exploratory study is based on qualitative interviews with 26 people recruited in Dayton, Ohio, for the Ohio Substance Abuse Monitoring Network, a statewide epidemiological surveillance system. Participants ranged in age from 21 to …
