A Holistic Harm Reduction Center Model: A Commentary

Substance addiction is a chronic, relapsing disorder characterized by compulsive drug seeking, loss of control over consumption, and a negative emotional state when access to the drug is restricted. Substance Use Disorders (SUDs) are associated with severe health issues including suicide and co-occurring diseases like HIV and hepatitis C, and mental health problems. Although the present SUD treatment models prioritize abstinence, achieving abstinence during a treatment episode is challenging as majority of individuals with SUDs continue using drugs during treatment. To address this challenge in the current SUD treatment model, harm reduction has emerged as a strategy that focuses on interventions such as naloxone distribution, syringe services, safe drug use education and other strategies that reduce harmful outcomes such as substance-related overdose death and disease transmission while improving quality of life. This commentary proposes a Holistic Harm Reduction Model that can be incorporated by harm reduction centers aimed at reducing risky drug use behavior and overdose deaths, and ultimately improving public health outcomes in the community. The proposed holistic model includes new components such as trauma-informed care and referral and a brief mindfulness intervention along with the already existing harm reduction approaches such as Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) and harm reduction managers to provide comprehensive healthcare services, distribution of supplies; education; referral and linkage to other services, including medications for substance use disorder; and participant data collection and analysis.

Development, Evaluation, and Initial Findings of New York State Department of Health Community Drug Checking Pilot Programs.

The illicit drug landscape in the United States is dynamic, featuring a risky and erratic drug supply. Drug checking programs (DCP) have been successfully implemented and studied extensively in Canada and Europe but are scarce in the United States. Integrating DCP at harm reduction programs provides an opportunity to engage people at the point-of-care and deliver a combination of harm reduction services, access to healthcare services, and linkages to treatment. The New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) developed and supports operation of 8 pilot community DCP sites throughout the state. The DCP were trained to utilize Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) technology to deliver real-time results to participants. The NYSDOH community DCP pilot began development in 2022. Partnerships were formed across multiple domains including other DCP, universities, forensic laboratories, syringe service and harm reduction programs, and legal and regulatory offices within the NYSDOH. The first pilot sites began operating in mid-2023 and program expansion is on-going. Evaluation staff were extensively engaged in development and implementation phases. Qualitative evaluation focused on barriers, facilitators, and lessons learned from program staff and technicians. Quantitative evidence was gathered to assess the reach of the DCP and accuracy of results attained by drug checking technicians during their training periods. Drug checking results helped characterize the illicit drug supply. Development and implementation of DCP in NYS was facilitated by strong partnerships across sectors including public health and harm reduction. DCP may involve diverse partners who do not regularly collaborate, and health departments are positioned to build relationships and convene partners for program implementation. Evaluation findings highlight the importance of facilitating on-going training and technical assistance to DCP for quality assurance. The initial successes and lessons learned from the NYSDOH DCP demonstrate state public health departments' ability to successfully deploy this innovative harm reduction strategy.

Polypharmacy and Deprescription: Role of Internists.

Polypharmacy is the concurrent use of five or more drugs per day. It is common in old age because of multimorbidity. The prevalence of polypharmacy is increasing as the number of old people is increasing worldwide. The proliferation of clinical guidelines and wider availability of preventive and curative medicines are important causes of polypharmacy. Appropriate polypharmacy is beneficial to the patients. However, polypharmacy may be inappropriate, causing adverse effects, drug interactions (DI), poor treatment efficacy, hospitalizations, and high healthcare costs. Prescribing cascade and legacy prescribing add to the burden of inappropriate polypharmacy. Inappropriate polypharmacy can be prevented or managed by medication optimization through medication review, deprescription, ensuring adherence, and patient education. Deprescription includes the removal of risky, unnecessary, and duplicate drugs, replacement with efficacious drugs, and relaxation of tight control as per life expectancy. Several deprescription tools (both explicit and implicit) exist for helping physicians to decide when to deprescribe or to add medicines, especially in old age. Care should be taken during deprescription to prevent unjustified omission, reduction to subtherapeutic dose, and onset of withdrawal features. Age and disease-related changes in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of drugs should be considered during the optimization of pharmacotherapy.

Overdose prevention centres as spaces of safety, trust and inclusion: A causal pathway based on a realist review.

Overdose prevention centres (OPC) are non-residential spaces where people can use illicit drugs (that they have obtained elsewhere) in the presence of staff who can intervene to prevent and manage any overdoses that occur. Many reviews of OPCs exist but they do not explain how OPCs work. We carried out a realist review, using the RAMESES reporting standards. We systematically searched for and then thematically analysed 391 documents that provide information on the contexts, mechanisms and outcomes of OPCs. Our retroductive analysis identified a causal pathway that highlights the feeling of safety - and the immediate outcome of not dying - as conditions of possibility for the people who use OPCs to build trust and experience social inclusion. The combination of safety, trust and social inclusion that is triggered by OPCs can - depending on the contexts in which they operate - generate other positive outcomes, which may include less risky drug use practices, reductions in blood borne viruses and injection-related infections and wounds, and access to housing. These outcomes are contingent on relevant contexts, including political and legal environments, which differ for women and people from racialised minorities. OPCs can enable people who live with structural violence and vulnerability to develop feelings of safety and trust that help them stay alive and to build longer term trajectories of social inclusion, with potential to improve other aspects of their health and living conditions.

S150 - Barriers to Enrolling Monolingual Spanish-Speaking Primary Care Patients in a Screening and Brief Intervention (SBI) RCT to Reduce Risky Drug Use: Lessons Learned From the Quit-Mobile Study

The rs4354668 polymorphism in the SLC1A2 gene for the EAAT2 glutamate transporter is associated with an increased risk of harmful drug use - an exploratory study on a university student population.

Evidence suggests that decreased dopamine secretion in mesocorticolimbic pathways could predispose to increased susceptibility to substance addiction. It has been proposed to define such a phenomenon as the reward deficit syndrome (RDS). Dopaminergic projections of the reward system receive glutaminergic projections from cortex. Research indicates that a reduction in the stimulating glutamatergic transmission on the dopaminergic system could represent an alternative phenotype of RDS. Potential source of this type of abnormality is glutamate reuptake which depends on excitatory amino acid transport proteins (EAAT) function. The most important of them is EAAT2, polymorphisms of which have been linked to several mental disorders. We analyzed the genetic and psychometric data of 125 young adults (n = 125) for the effect of the rs4354668 polymorphism of the SLC1A2 gene for EAAT2 on the risky or harmful drug use (RHDU). After exploratory analysis we used logistic regression models to assess the probability of RHDU in individual groups. In the final model T/T variant of rs4354668 was significantly associated with a lower probability of RHDU occurrence compared to G/G variant (OR: 0.021; 95% CI: 0.001 - 0.275; p = 0.009). Other significant predictors of RHDU were smoking status and risky or harmful drinking of alcohol. The results obtained may indicate a possible relationship of the risk of harmful drug use with variants of the rs4354668 polymorphism of the SLC1A2 gene for EAAT2. Subjects with the T/T variant of this polymorphism appear to be less at risk of developing drug use disorders.

Associations among drug acquisition and use behaviors, psychosocial attributes, and opioid-involved overdoses

AimsThis study sought to develop and assess an exploratory model of how demographic and psychosocial attributes, and drug use or acquisition behaviors interact to affect opioid-involved overdoses.DesignWe conducted exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis (EFA/CFA) to identify a factor structure for ten drug acquisition and use behaviors. We then evaluated alternative structural equation models incorporating the identified factors, adding demographic and psychosocial attributes as predictors of past-year opioid overdose.Setting and participantsWe used interview data collected for two studies recruiting opioid-misusing participants receiving services from a community-based syringe services program. The first investigated current attitudes toward drug-checking (N = 150). The second was an RCT assessing a telehealth versus in-person medical appointment for opioid use disorder treatment referral (N = 270).MeasurementsDemographics included gender, age, race/ethnicity, education, and socioeconomic status. Psychosocial measures were homelessness, psychological distress, and trauma. Self-reported drug-related risk behaviors included using alone, having a new supplier, using opioids with benzodiazepines/alcohol, and preferring fentanyl. Past-year opioid-involved overdoses were dichotomized into experiencing none or any.FindingsThe EFA/CFA revealed a two-factor structure with one factor reflecting drug acquisition and the second drug use behaviors. The selected model (CFI = .984, TLI = .981, RMSEA = .024) accounted for 13.1% of overdose probability variance. A latent variable representing psychosocial attributes was indirectly associated with an increase in past-year overdose probability (β = .234, p = .001), as mediated by the EFA/CFA identified latent variables: drug acquisition (β = .683, p < .001) and drug use (β = .567, p = .001). Drug use behaviors (β = .287, p = .04) but not drug acquisition (β = .105, p = .461) also had a significant, positive direct effect on past-year overdose. No demographic attributes were significant direct or indirect overdose predictors.ConclusionsPsychosocial attributes, particularly homelessness, increase the probability of an overdose through associations with risky drug acquisition and drug-using behaviors. Further research is needed to replicate these findings with populations at high-risk of an opioid-related overdose to assess generalizability and refine the metrics used to assess psychosocial characteristics.

Characterising People who inject drugs, and association with HIV infection: A Situation Analysis in Kampala city, Uganda.

Uganda has implemented targeted interventions to address the rising burden of injection drug use, yet barriers persist in reaching persons who inject drugs (PWID). This study describes the characteristics of people who inject drugs, physical and mental health states, and associated risk behaviors, to inform the designing of programs that are tailored to client's needs and preferences. A cross-sectional survey was conducted between August and December 2023 at selected hotspots in Kampala, interviewing 499 PWID aged ≥18 years. Data was collected using a semi-structured questionnaire administered by peer educators and Uganda Harm Reduction Network (UHRN) counselors. Measurements included socio-demographics, injecting drug use and sexual risk behaviors, and medical history. HIV serostatus was dtermined by self-report and testing for participants who had no recent history of testing and consented to be tested. Binary logistic regression was used to establish the relationship between HIV infection and risky drug- and sexual behaviors of PWID. Participants were predominantly Ugandan (95.2%), male (73.2%), unmarried (55.9%), unemployed (81.8%), with higher levels of education and varying ages. Mental disorders were prevalent, with 48.7% reporting at least one underlying condition, including depression (30.8%) and anxiety (9.6%). Physical health issues were also noted, with reported cases of fever (32.9%), cough (32.5%), malaria (22%) and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) (15%).Regarding drug use patterns, the majority (82.6%) were introduced to drugs by close acquaintances, with 70.9% categorized as people who inject drugs. HIV prevalence among injecting drug users was 3.7%, with higher rates among females (8.4%) and non-Ugandans (16.7%). Being female and experiencing difficulty accessing sterile injection materials were associated with HIV-positive status, highlighting the complex interplay between socio-demographic factors, risk behaviors, and HIV infection among individuals with injecting drug use Disorder in Uganda. Our study provides a comprehensive insight into the socio-demographic, mental, physical health, and HIV risk behavoir of PWID in Kampala, Uganda. The findings indicate significant vulnerabilities to injecting drug use, mental disorders, and high-risk behaviors that predispose this population to HIV infection. Despite a low HIV prevalence compared to previous estimates, the interplay between drug use, risky injecting practices, and sexual behaviors suggests an urgent need for targeted interventions to address these intertwined challenges.

Degradation of the cytostatic drug bicalutamide by photo-assisted catalytic wet peroxide oxidation

The presence of cytostatic drugs, such as bicalutamide (BICA), in aquatic compartments reveals the necessity of developing efficient processes for their elimination in wastewater treatment plants (WWTP). This work explores for the first time the use of natural magnetite as a low-cost catalyst in the photo assisted — catalytic wet peroxide oxidation (UV-CWPO) of BICA. For this purpose, real WWTP secondary effluents were spiked with 100 μg/L BICA and subjected to UV-CWPO. Preliminary runs comparing UV photolysis, UV/H2O2, CWPO and UV-CWPO confirmed the synergistic effect of UV radiation and the CWPO process employing magnetite. Afterwards, a parametric study was performed evaluating the influence of the pH, catalyst load, H2O2 dosage, temperature and water matrix. Under optimum operating conditions (pH 0: 6, [magnetite]: 375 mg/L and [H2O2]: 75 mg/L), 99.7 % BICA degradation and 60.7 % mineralization were reached after 30 min in WWTP effluent. UV-CWPO also proved to be effective in hospital wastewater. Catalyst activity was studied in 5 consecutive runs, showing great stability for both BICA removal and TOC elimination. Finally, phytotoxicity tests revealed a lower toxicity in the UV-CWPO effluent compared to the untreated stream. Hence, UV-CWPO proved to be a feasible to eliminate risky cytostatic drugs in relevant environmental matrices.

Adverse Childhood Experiences and Illegal Drug Use Among College Students: Findings from a French Sample.

While studies have demonstrated the negative impact of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) on lifelong health, less is known about the relationship between ACEs and illegal drug use. Thus, the objective of the study was to examine the relationship between ACEs and illegal drug use among college students. French college students between 18 and 30 years enrolled in a university cohort study were eligible for inclusion. Multivariate logistic regression models were conducted for each drug. Among the sample (n = 1,157), 30.6% had no ACE exposure, 29.6%, 19.2%, and 20.7% had 1, 2 and ≥ 3 ACEs, respectively. Students with ACEs had a higher likelihood of using illegal drugs (p = 0.0067). After controlling for potential confounders, having ≥ 3 ACEs increased the risk of lifetime use of multiple drugs (aOR:10.9; 95% CI: 4.6-26.0), stimulants (aOR: 3.6; 95% CI:1.7-7.7), hallucinogens (aOR: 2.0; 95% CI: 1.1-3.5), cannabis (aOR: 4.7; 95% CI: 2.7-8.0), and risky illegal drugs (e.g., higher lifetime frequency drug use) (aOR: 2.9; 95% CI: 1.5-5.8). Estimates for illegal drug use were highest with parental substance use (aOR: 2.6; 95% CI; 1.5-4.4), sexual abuse (aOR: 2.3; 95% CI; 1.4-3.8), and divorce (aOR: 1.9; 95% CI: 1.3-2.7). ACEs increase the risk for lifetime illegal drug use and risky drug use in a dose-respondent fashion. These findings suggest that university students with higher levels of ACEs may benefit from additional support and services from clinical practitioners and university administrators.

Factors of e-cigarette use among Malaysian adolescents: A systematic review

E-cigarette use remains a virulent issue in public health worldwide. Like various tobacco products, smoking e-cigarettes cause significant health risks to consumers, especially adolescents. To understand the enormity of this matter, it is best to be aware of the factors linked with using e-cigarettes to develop preventive strategies at an early adolescent stage. This current systematic review aims to explore and scrutinize the latest information on the factors linked to e-cigarette use among adolescents in Malaysia. Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) 2020 statement were employed in this systematic review. The literature search used available online databases (Scopus, PubMed, Google Scholar) to select original articles published between 2013 and 2022. A total of 5 articles were chosen to be incorporated in this systematic review. Various factors linked to e-cigarette use were discovered, such as risky lifestyle behavior, including alcohol and drug abuse, unmarried parents living together, insufficient knowledge and awareness of the health and well-being effects of e-cigarettes, and lack of exposure to e-cigarette education in school. Therefore, targeted prevention steps dealing with policies, laws, and regulations must be developed to address contributing factors leading to e-cigarette use to solve the evolving issue effectively. Thus, it is necessary to monitor and evaluate current programs and interventions on e-cigarette use among adolescents in Malaysia to prevent its expansion towards the community.

Investigation of the electrochemical properties of edoxaban using glassy carbon and boron-doped diamond electrodes and development of an eco-friendly and cost effective voltammetric method for its determination

In this study, the highly risky drug Edoxaban (EDX), which can threaten life and cause bleeding, was electro analytically evaluated. The electrochemical behavior of EDX was investigated using glassy carbon electrode (GCE) and boron-doped diamond electrode (BDDE). In this study, for the first time, a simple, rapid, sensitive, and selective voltammetric technique was developed by using different electrodes for the electrochemical characterization and detection of EDX. The optimized voltammetric technique showed anodic signals of EDX at +1.09 V and +1.08 V on GCE and BDDE, respectively, in BR (pH 5.0) solution. The developed voltammetric method provided a very good analytical working range for EDX in BR (pH 5.0) solution on GCE and BDDE, covering concentration ranges from 1.84 μM to 12.88 μM and from 3.68 μM to 14.72 μM, respectively. The limits of detection for EDX on GCE and BDDE under these experimental conditions were calculated as 0.24 μM and 0.57 μM, respectively. The developed voltammetric methods on both electrodes were successfully applied to urine and tablet samples. Additionally, the obtained voltammetric results were compared with UV–Vis spectroscopy results.

Warning signs for suicide attempts in psychiatric inpatients: Patient and informant perspectives

ObjectiveWarning signs can help prevent suicide attempts and death. It is important to develop an evidence base for warning signs that considers both self-perspectives (i.e., those at risk for suicide) and informant-perspectives (i.e., those who observe individuals at risk for suicide). MethodsA questionnaire assessing a diverse set of 80 potential warning signs (“present in the minutes, hours, or days before the suicide attempts”) was developed based on literature searches, lived experience consultations, and the American Association of Suicidology (AAS) expert consensus list. This questionnaire was administered to two samples: psychiatric inpatients who had attempted suicide (n = 476), and informants identified as friends, family, or caretakers of patients (n = 120). ResultsHopelessness, anxiousness, and unbearable pain were each endorsed as warning signs by >80% of inpatients and informants. Warning signs were similar across patient and informant perspectives, and across sociodemographic and clinical characteristics. Some AAS warning signs were endorsed by few patients and informants (risky behaviors, alcohol or drug use, seeking revenge) and may warrant re-evaluation. ConclusionsFindings are consistent with models of suicide risk emphasizing pain, hopelessness, and anxiousness. Existing lists of warning signs may benefit from revision as the evidence base continues to develop.

Addiction severity and re-employment in Sweden among adults with risky alcohol and drug use

BackgroundThe Addiction Severity Index (ASI) assesses respondents' biopsychosocial problems in seven addiction-related domains (mental health, family and social relations, employment, alcohol use, drug use, physical health, and legal problems). This study examined the association between the seven ASI composite scores and re-employment in a sample of Swedish adults screened for risky alcohol and drug use who were without employment at assessment. MethodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort analysis of employment outcomes among 6502 unemployed adults living in Sweden who completed an ASI assessment for risky alcohol and drug use. The study linked ASI scores to annual tax register data. The primary outcome was employment, defined as having earnings above an administrative threshold. We used Cox proportional hazard models to estimate the association between time to re-employment and ASI composite scores, controlling for demographic characteristics, ResultsApproximately three in ten individuals in the sample regained employment within five years. ASI composite scores suggested widespread biopsychosocial problems. Re-employment was associated with lower ASI composite scores for mental health (estimate: 0.775, 95 % confidence interval: 0.629–0.956), employment (estimate: 0.669, confidence interval: 0.532–0.841), drug use (estimate: 0.628, confidence interval: 0.428–0.924), and health (estimate: 0.798, confidence interval: 0.699–0.912). ConclusionsThis study suggests that several ASI domains may provide information on the complex factors (i.e., mental health, health, drug use) associated with long-term unemployment for people with risky substance use.

Amantadine-associated delirium in patients with maintenance dialysis: Insomnia-associated recovery and uneven seasonal distribution.

Amantadine hydrochloride is a risky drug for triggering delirium in dialysis patients; however, it is often administered casually. Furthermore, little is known regarding the recovery and prognosis of dialysis patients with amantadine-associated delirium. Data of this retrospective cohort study were collected from a local hospital database for hospitalizations between January 2011 and December 2020. Patients were divided into 2 cohorts: early recovery (recovery within 14 days) and delayed recovery (recovery more than 14 days). The cases were analyzed together with the intermonth temperature using descriptive statistics. A Kaplan-Meier survival curve and binary logistic regression were applied for the analyses of prognoses and factors. A total of 57 patients were included in this study. The most common symptoms were hallucinations (45.61%) and muscle tremors (43.86%). Early recovery was observed in 63.16% of the patients. Only 3.51% of the cases occurred in local summer (June, July, and August). Better prognoses for survival (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.066, 95% confidence interval [95% CI] = 0.021-0.212) and hospitalization costs (7968.42 ± 3438.43 CNY vs 12852.38 ± 9361.13 CNY, P = .031) were observed in patients with early recovery than in those with delayed recovery. In the multivariate logistic regression adjusted by 1:1 propensity score matching, delayed recovery was independently caused by insomnia (P = .022, = 10.119, 95% CI = 1.403-72.990) and avoided in patients with urine volume over 300 mL (P = .029, = 0.018, 95% CI = 0.006-0.621). The increment (per 100 mg) of cumulative dose (P = .190, = 1.588, 95% CI = 0.395-3.172) tended to be a risk of delayed recovery. The area under curve of the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.867, with a sensitivity of 90.5% and a specificity of 82.4% at the cutoff point (cutoff = 0.432). For amantadine-associated delirium in dialysis patients with uneven seasonal distribution, early recovery with better prognosis should be the aim of treatment by giving priority to the remedy of insomnia.

Mental health, self-rated health, risky sexual behaviour, alcohol use, and drug use among students who intend to spend a semester abroad - a cross-sectional study.

Our aim was to investigate potential differences in mental health, self-rated health, risky sexual behaviour, alcohol use, and drug use between (1) Prospective exchange students and campus students separated by sex, and (2) male and female students as a group. Comparative cross-sectional design using an online survey containing the following instruments: Knowledge, Attitudes, and Sexual Behaviour in Young People in Sweden; Self-Rated Health Questionnaire; and General Health Questionnaire 12. One-hundred and fourteen prospective exchange students and 451 campus students participated in the study. Male prospective exchange students rated their mental health as being better and had used cannabis more often compared with female prospective exchange students. Male prospective exchange students also rated their mental health as being better than male campus students. Female students, in general, rated their mental health as worse than male students. A larger proportion of male prospective exchange students had sex together with alcohol compared with male campus students, and a larger proportion of female prospective exchange students had sex with a new partner and drank more alcohol compared to female campus students. The result shows that risky alcohol use and sexually risky behaviour is prominent amongst prospective exchange students. It is possible that they will continue, and even increase their risky behaviour whilst abroad as they find themselves in a new social context, and free from influence of the rules and restrictions that they might have at home. With limited knowledge of the local culture, native language, and in an unfamiliar environment, it is possible that the risks will be enhanced and possibly decrease their health. This highlights the need for proactive interventions, conceivably with some variations in content between sexes.

Campaign to Reduce the Coprescribing of Opioids With Other Risky Drugs a Success and a Failure

Campaign to Reduce the Coprescribing of Opioids With Other Risky Drugs a Success and a Failure

Changing our outlook towards vulnerable women for societal resilience

Abstract Background: The vulnerabilities and risks of women injecting drug users (WIDUs) are different compared to their male counterparts. In light of scant literature in this area, we carried out this qualitative study with the aim to explore the lived experiences of WIDUs in the North of Mauritius. Its objectives were (1) To get an insight into the risks taken during the injection practices of WIDUs and (2) To obtain an in-depth understanding of the gender-specific vulnerability of the sexual behaviours of WIDUs. Methods: A qualitative phenomenological approach was used for the research work. Study participants were recruited from a specific needle exchange site, by purposive sampling until saturation of data was reached. In-depth interviews conducted were transcribed for thematic analysis. Ethical clearance was obtained from the relevant authorities. Findings: The principal theme which emerged from the data collected was “Drug Injection Scenario”, with the following sub-themes: settings for drug injection; pre-injection rituals; third party assistance; sharing and recycling of injecting materials. The second theme which came out was “Sex Work and Drug Use Interplay” with either sex work preceding drug injection or drug injection preceding sex work. Finally, the third theme was “Sexual Behaviours Screenplay” with casual encounters and unprotected sex. Conclusions: This study filled the gap with respect to the absence of qualitative studies among WIDUs in Mauritius. It revealed their risky drug injecting practices and sexual behaviours. Their psychological and physical dependence on drug injection contributed to their stay within this vulnerable circle. Their inability to access adequate support hinders them from coming out of the clutches of their risky drug injection and sexual practices. For resilience of the society, there is need to address the needs of this vulnerable group of women.
