Federal Impacts on Buprenorphine Prescribing in Washington State, 2012 to 2022
Conclusions. CARA nearly tripled the buprenorphine prescribing rate. The SUPPORT Act initiated sustained declines for physician prescribing, and the COVID-19 period reversed gains for PAs and NPs. The current opioid crisis requires expanded efforts in Washington State. (Am J Public Health.

Perceptions around medications for opioid use disorder among a diverse sample of U.S. adults
Medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD) including methadone (MMT), buprenorphine (BUP), and naltrexone (NTX) are safe and effective. However, there are significant negative perceptions surrounding MOUD, creating barriers to uptake. While research on MOUD stigma has largely focused on provider and patient experiences, fewer studies have explored MOUD perceptions among the general public. Given that MOUD stigma expressed by social ties surrounding individuals with OUD can influence treatment choices, we assessed MOUD perceptions among U.S. (Source: Journal of Substance Abuse Treatment)

Retraction of “Event-level risk for negative alcohol consequences in emerging adults: The role of affect, motivation, and context” by Waddell et al. (2024).
This article is being retracted at the request of the publisher, and the editor and all authors of the original article consented. This article was published in error, as it is a first stage Registered Report that has received in-principle acceptance. Given the workflow of a Registered Report, the first journal publication appears after data collection and results have been reported in the second stage Registered Report submission (see workflow at https://www.cos.io/initiatives/registered-reports). This stage one article is being removed from the literature to avoid confusion and will instead be preregistered as a Register...

A Randomized Clinical Trial of Mobile Contingency Management Intervention for Cannabis Use Reduction
The objective of this randomized clinical trial (RCT) was to evaluate the efficacy of mobile contingency management (mCM) to reduce cannabis use among individuals with heavy cannabis use. Participants completed 2 weeks of daily ecological momentary assessments and twice daily video saliva tests during a baseline ad lib cannabis use period. Participants randomly assigned to mCM then received 6 weeks of the mCM intervention, whereas control participants received non-contingent payments. Consistent with our main hypothesis, participants in the mCM condition reported significantly greater reductions in bioverified use days (43...

Hospitalists as Disruptors in Healthcare
Dr. Kisuule
We are living in disruptive times. We are amidst national and global conflict, we survived a pandemic that changed many aspects of our lives permanently, and many of our health systems are working through financial challenges with unprecedented operating and net losses. These disruptive forces require equal and opposite forces … remember high school physics and Newton’s third law? How do we reclaim this word “disruptive” as a force for good? According to the Oxford Dictionary, disruptive is, “causing radical change in an existing industry or market through being innovative.” Healthcare disruptors a...

The effects of alcohol use on smoking cessation treatment with nicotine replacement therapy: An observational study
CONCLUSION: Heavy, hazardous alcohol use is associated with lower odds of successfully quitting smoking compared to low or non-use of alcohol. Targeting alcohol treatment to this group may improve tobacco cessation outcomes.PMID:38692071 | DOI:10.1016/j.addbeh.2024.108045 (Source: Addictive Behaviors)

Long-term effects of alcohol consumption on anxiety in adults: A systematic review
CONCLUSIONS: A paucity of research on the longitudinal effects of alcohol consumption on anxiety was found, highlighting a significant gap in the research literature. Furthermore, existing research, primarily focussed on clinical subpopulations, has yielded mixed results. Further research is needed to explore the longitudinal dose dependent impact of alcohol consumption on anxiety using samples representative of national populations.PMID:38692070 | DOI:10.1016/j.addbeh.2024.108047 (Source: Addictive Behaviors)

An acute phase reaction from zoledronate mimicking symptoms seen in opioid withdrawal: a case report
CONCLUSION: Zoledronate, well known for causing acute phase reactions, was likely the cause of withdrawal-like symptoms. Acute phase reactions with bisphosphonates mostly occur in the first infusion, and the incidence decreases with subsequent infusions. Symptoms typically occur 24-72 h post-infusion, and last at most for 72 h. Cognitive bias led the primary team to be concerned with opioid withdrawal rather than investigating other causes for the patient's presentation. Therefore, providers should thoroughly investigate potential etiologies and rule them out accordingly to provide the best care. Health care providers shou...
