Medicinal cannabis use among young adults during California's transition from legalized medical use to adult-use: a longitudinal analysis
Conclusions: During the transition to legalized adult-use, patterns of medicinal cannabis use varied among young adults. Clinicians should monitor increases in mental health symptoms and cannabis-related problems among young adults who report recreational - but not medicinal - cannabis use.PMID:38407837 | DOI:10.1080/00952990.2024.2308098 (Source: The American Journal of Drug and Alcohol Abuse)

Application of an opioid use disorder cascade of care in a large public health system
Conclusion: The current paper serves as a primer for other health systems seeking to implement data-informed approaches to guide more efficient care and improved substance use-related outcomes. An OUD Cascade of Care must be tailored to local systems based on inherent data limitations and services design with an emphasis on early stages wherein drop-off is the greatest.PMID:38386810 | DOI:10.1080/00952990.2024.2302500 (Source: The American Journal of Drug and Alcohol Abuse)

Processing abnormalities in monetary outcome evaluations among male individuals with opioid use disorder: evidence from feedback-related negativity
Conclusion: This study's FRN data indicate that males with OUD show altered processing of monetary rewards, marked by reduced sensitivity to loss. These findings offer electrophysiological insights into why males with OUD may pursue drugs despite potential economic downsides.PMID:38386811 | DOI:10.1080/00952990.2024.2304036 (Source: The American Journal of Drug and Alcohol Abuse)

Opioid-induced hypogonadism in opioid use disorder, its role in negative reinforcement, and implications for treatment and retention
Am J Drug Alcohol Abuse. 2024 Feb 6:1-7. doi: 10.1080/00952990.2023.2292012. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHypogonadism is a highly prevalent complication of chronic opioid use associated with a constellation of affective, algesic, and cognitive symptoms as well as decreased quality of life. Given that the mainstays of pharmacologic opioid use disorder (OUD) treatment - methadone and buprenorphine - are themselves agonists or partial agonists at the mu opioid receptor, opioid-induced hypogonadism (OIH) remains an underappreciated clinical concern throughout the course of OUD treatment. Prominent theoretical frameworks for ...
