A qualitative interview study of patient experiences of receiving motivational enhancement therapy in a Swedish addiction specialist treatment setting
CONCLUSIONS: Therapist behaviors in line with MI spirit were emphasized as key to the development of a positive therapeutic relationship. More specific advice on goal-setting may be effective for supporting change in some patients. Longer treatment is requested among patients to support the patient's self-efficacy for change. Significant others can support change without necessarily being present in sessions.TRIAL REGISTRATION: The current trial was retrospectively registered at isrtcn.com (14539251).PMID:37475039 | PMC:PMC10357895 | DOI:10.1186/s13722-023-00398-7 (Source: Addiction Science and Clinical Practice)

Benzodiazepine use, quality of life and psychiatric symptom burden in oral and injectable opioid agonist treatment: a cross-sectional study
CONCLUSIONS: The association of lower QoL and BZD use in OAT patients is strongly confounded by co-occurring depressive state and psychiatric symptoms. Careful diagnosis and treatment of co-occurring mental disorders in OAT is paramount to improve QoL in this patient population and may also help reduce BZD use.PMID:37464432 | PMC:PMC10354905 | DOI:10.1186/s13722-023-00397-8 (Source: Addiction Science and Clinical Practice)

Non-overdose acute care hospitalizations for opioid use disorder among commercially-insured adults: a retrospective cohort study
CONCLUSIONS: Non-overdose OUD hospitalizations often occur with substance use disorders and psychiatric disorders, and very few are followed by timely outpatient buprenorphine. Addressing the OUD treatment gap during hospitalization may include implementing medication for OUD for inpatients with a broad range of diagnoses.PMID:37434260 | PMC:PMC10337199 | DOI:10.1186/s13722-023-00396-9 (Source: Addiction Science and Clinical Practice)
