1. Telehealth Policy Interactions Across the Buprenorphine Care Cascade: A System Mapping Analysis.
PMID:日期:2026-10-05The COVID-19 Public Health Emergency prompted multiple policies that expanded telehealth care, including buprenorphine treatment for opioid use disorder (OUD). Prior research has reviewed these policies, but not their structural relationships. We used a system mapping approach to visualize how those policies interacted to influence care delivery. We developed a diagram based on system dynamics conventions to capture patient status and care transitions and provider capacity change, telehealth adoption, and attrition, informed respectively by the cascade-of-care framework and innovation diffusion models. We identified state or U.S. national policies involving telehealth buprenorphine prescribing for OUD from peer-reviewed studies published from 2020 to 2025. We mapped relevant policies onto patient and provider transitions to identify where bottlenecks or synergies might occur and thus undermine or support policies' intent. We identified 17 policies that affected buprenorphine delivery via telehealth, spanning prescribing without an in-person visit, insurance changes reducing patient financial burden, provider reimbursement, lowering technological barriers, and scope-of-practice flexibilities. Only four policies specifically targeted buprenorphine prescribing, while the remaining facilitated access to buprenorphine treatment. Most policies affected multiple transitions, and all transitions were affected by multiple policies. We mapped six policies to diagnosis, nine to buprenorphine initiation, eight to treatment discontinuation, four to changes in provider capacity, eight to telehealth adoption, and three to its attrition. System mapping shows how telehealth-related policies jointly shape access to buprenorphine care through their alignment across patient pathways and provider participation. Policy interactions create constraints or reinforcement at key points in care delivery.

2. Developmental Variation in the Association Between Substance Use and Firearm Aggression From Adolescence to Emerging Adulthood: A Time-Varying Effect Modeling Approach.
PMID:日期:2026-09-24Firearm assault injury is a leading cause of death among adolescents and emerging adults. Less is known about how firearm aggression (i.e., using a firearm to threaten or injure someone) varies developmentally during this life stage, and how demographic factors and substance use contribute to its trajectory. Participants were 599 individuals aged 16 to 25 who sought emergency care in Flint, Michigan, and reported past-six-month drug use. An accelerated cohort design was used to organize the data by respondents' age in quarter-year increments at the time of measurement; each participant contributed up to five repeated assessments. Time-varying effect models (TVEM) were used to examine how sociodemographic characteristics and alcohol, cigarette, and cannabis use frequencies were associated with the likelihood of firearm aggression across age. The probability of firearm aggression peaked at the onset of emerging adulthood (ages 18-20). Being male was positively associated with firearm aggression during adolescence into emerging adulthood. Alcohol use frequency was also positively associated with firearm aggression in adolescence, with effects diminished by emerging adulthood. Cannabis and cigarette use frequencies, as well as race, parental education, and public assistance, were not associated with firearm aggression across age. Firearm aggression was most prevalent as youth transitioned into emerging adulthood from adolescence, particularly among males and youth who used alcohol more frequently. This may reflect a period of developmental vulnerability involving ongoing maturation in self-regulation and emerging norms around masculinity, particularly among youth in under-resourced communities where community violence is prevalent.

3. BAC Feedback Lowers Perceived Intoxication and Increases Perceived Driving Fitness.
PMID:日期:2026-09-24Driving under the influence (DUI) is one of few offenses in which guilt can be determined by a single measure (i.e., legal limit = 0.08% BAC). Drivers perform poorly when estimating their intoxication, yet the degree to which they perceive themselves to be intoxicated strongly predicts their decision to drive. Despite more prevalent breathalyzer use, it is unclear whether feedback that drivers' BAC approximates the legal limit dissuades the decision to drive. This study tested the effect of providing BAC feedback on drinkers' perceptions of their intoxication and driving fitness after drinking alcohol. Sixty-one drivers were randomly assigned to the control (C) (n=30) or feedback (F) (n=31) group. Participants attended three sessions (pre-feedback, feedback, post-feedback) during which they received 0.65g/kg alcohol (target BAC ≈ 0.08%). During the pre- and post-feedback sessions, groups rated their level of intoxication and perceived driving fitness. During the feedback session, those in the feedback group received explicit information about their actual BAC, while those in the control group received no information. Prior to receiving feedback, the groups did not differ in perceived intoxication and driving fitness. After receiving feedback, however, Group F perceived lower intoxication and greater driving fitness than Group C. These group differences occurred despite comparable BACs among the groups throughout the study. Receiving feedback that one's BAC approximates the legal limit may not increase the driver's perceived risk of driving.

4. First-Use of Cigarettes, E-Cigarettes, and Cannabis: Qualitative Assessment of Subjective Reactions and Social Contexts Among Emerging Adults.
PMID:日期:2026-09-14Increases in nicotine/tobacco and cannabis use among adolescents and emerging adults highlight the importance of understanding the circumstances surrounding substance initiation. While prior research has focused on prevalence and risk factors, fewer studies have explored subjective accounts of first use. This study used qualitative analyses of retrospective narratives to characterize emotional and contextual factors of adolescents' and emerging adults' first-use experiences. Participants included 293 undergraduates ( = 21.3 years, = 2.9) from a midsized, urban Northeastern university. The sample was predominantly female (84.3%) and racially/ethnically diverse (43.9% White, 42.4% Black, 16% Latinx). Participants completed a retrospective survey assessing first use of cigarettes, e-cigarettes, and cannabis. Qualitative narratives were thematically coded for valence (positive, negative, neutral), and contextual factors (setting, social, influences, and motives). Mean age of first use was 16.1 years ( = 3.4) for cigarettes, 17.0 ( = 2.6) for e-cigarettes, and 16.7 ( = 2.2) for cannabis. E-cigarettes were the most common nicotine initiation method (54%), while joints (48.7%) were most common for cannabis. Valences of first use were mixed: most cigarette users reported negative reactions, while e-cigarettes and cannabis users reported a wider range of responses, including enjoyment, discomfort, or no effect. Social and emotional contexts, such as peer influence, parties, and curiosity were common motives. Qualitative accounts of first-use experiences provide insight into how adolescents and emerging adults interpret substance initiation. These findings emphasize the importance of social and emotional contexts surrounding substance initiation which may inform prevention efforts.

5. Cannabis and Alcohol Prepartying Among Young Adults: Daily-Level Associations with Cannabis Intoxication and Simultaneous Alcohol and Cannabis Use.
PMID:日期:2026-09-14Prepartying is a high-risk context for alcohol use among young adults, yet little is known about cannabis use before social events. This study introduces cannabis prepartying and examines co-occurrence with alcohol prepartying, including simultaneous alcohol and cannabis (SAM) prepartying, and daily-level associations with cannabis intoxication and SAM use among young adults. A longitudinal measurement burst ecological momentary assessment design was used. Participants ages 18-25 completed 3-week EMA periods repeated quarterly over 12 months. Analyses used two samples: participants reporting alcohol use on at least one sampled day (N = 507) and participants reporting cannabis use on at least one sampled day (N = 238). Cannabis prepartying occurred on 15.9% of all cannabis use days (37.4% of participants who used cannabis), whereas alcohol prepartying occurred on 13.6% of all alcohol use days (39.3% of participants who used alcohol). Cannabis prepartying was positively associated within- and between-person with hours high, subjective intoxication, and likelihood of SAM use. Alcohol prepartying was positively associated within- and between-person with SAM use before adjusting for drinks and hours high but only within-person after adjustment. Cannabis prepartying occurs among a substantial subset of young adults and represents a measurable social context that parallels alcohol prepartying. Cannabis prepartying co-occurs with alcohol use and is associated with greater likelihood of SAM use, along with longer duration of hours high and higher subjective intoxication. These associations were observed at both within- and between-person for cannabis prepartying, whereas alcohol prepartying was associated with SAM use at the within-person level only.

6. Seriously Considering Humor as a Therapeutic Support for Addiction Recovery.
PMID:日期:2026-09-14Humor interventions can increase happiness and reduce mental health symptoms such as depression and anxiety. Several authors have direct lived experience of these benefits, with humor being transformative early and throughout their addiction recovery. Yet the scientific study of humor as a support for recovery remains largely unexamined. We argue this is a missed opportunity and offer a rationale for advancing this area of research. We propose that humor aligns with putative therapeutic processes central to recovery: cognitive (i.e., psychological flexibility), reward (i.e., non-substance reward), and social processes (i.e., peer support, stigma reduction). Humor-based interventions could take many forms, including humor-focused cognitive reframing, digital comedy content, and delivery by counselors, peer recovery coaches, or other providers. Humor may strengthen treatment engagement and may also have synergistic benefits with established approaches such as CBT and mindfulness-based relapse prevention. Here, we present a humor-based intervention that integrates humor-focused cognitive reframing in group therapy and daily life, diaries to savor humorous experiences, and stand-up comedy content, including material from comedians in recovery. Our intervention example corresponds to mechanisms linking humor and outcomes (e.g., psychological flexibility, increased substance-free enjoyment, and reductions in craving via distraction). We also describe the exciting potential for humor interventions to serve as engagement and retention approaches as part of treatment. We then identify three main areas-relevant across putative processes and intervention approaches-for advancing the science of humor and addiction. This includes (1) heterogeneity in comedy preferences (e.g., comedy about addiction), (2) individual differences (e.g., anhedonia and fear of being laughed at "gelotophobia"), and (3) dynamic aspects of humor and recovery (e.g., humor across stages of recovery, humor in relation to changes in mood and social context). We conclude that research on humor in addiction should maintain a bi-directional relationship with lived experience: we should always be "in on the joke."

7. Age Differences in Opioid Overdose Risk Factors Among Black Men: A Brief Report.
PMID:日期:2026-09-04Opioid overdose deaths continue to increase among Black Americans, despite decreases in deaths overall nationwide. Older Black men (beginning in their 50s) have a heightened risk, dying from opioid overdoses at a five-fold increase from 2015-2023. However, research identifying differences in risk factors for opioid overdose among older Black men compared to younger Black men is limited. The current study is a secondary analysis of survey data from a study highlighting drug misuse and treatment among Black adults in Kentucky, and compares Black men 51 and older ( = 125) to Black men 50 and younger ( = 271) on the following overdose risk factors: opioid use, stimulant use, polydrug use, stimulant and opioid co-use, injection drug use, pain, and having a doctor deny pain medication. The sample includes Black men residing in Kentucky, a state with the fourth highest opioid overdose rates in the U.S. Results indicate that Black men 51 and older report more stimulant use, = 10740.50, < .001, = -.35; stimulant/opioid co-use, = -1.23, < .001; = .29, 95% = .18 - .47; polydrug use, (223.14) = 2.46, = .02; and pain, = -.62, = .008; = .54, 95% = .34 - .85; than men 50 and younger. Findings illustrate differential prevalence of overdose risk factors among Black men 51 and older compared to men 50 and younger. Opioid overdose prevention considerations are discussed, including assessing identified risk factors among older Black men.

8. Preclinical Models of Alcohol Use and Alcohol-Induced Neurotoxicity: Behavioral, Cognitive, and Developmental Perspectives.
PMID:日期:2026-09-03This review conceptualizes ethanol and methanol neurotoxicity through a tri-domain framework encompassing motivational, degenerative, and developmental mechanisms, and integrates decades of rodent research into a multidimensional map of how alcohol reshapes the brain. It emphasizes exposure route-specific paradigm, oral gavage, vapor inhalation, and intraperitoneal administration, as translational anchors linking behavioral, metabolic, and molecular signatures. A literature search was conducted across PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases for articles published between June 1999 and May 2026. Search terms integrated keywords related to alcohol exposure routes and neurotoxicity (e.g., ethanol, methanol, neurodegeneration, prenatal/adolescent exposure, oral gavage, vapor, and injection paradigms). Boolean operators and manual citation tracking were utilized. Out of 205 initially identified articles, 182 studies meeting selection criteria were included in the final synthesis. Chronic gavage models effectively capture nutrient-metabolic interactions under sustained drinking, vapor inhalation isolates central oxidative and inflammatory cascades under stress-neutral conditions, and injection paradigms offer mechanistic precision for acute mitochondrial dysfunction. Hybrid protocols reveal time-coded dynamics of degeneration and recovery. Developmental studies demonstrate that prenatal and adolescent alcohol exposure drives epigenetic remodeling, DNA methylation drift, histone acetylation, and microRNA dysregulation, leading to long-term deficits in cortical maturation and cognitive control. Methanol models extend this neuroenergetic spectrum through formate-driven mitochondrial failure and optic-cerebellar injury. The tri-domain framework integrates diverse rodent paradigms across exposure routes and life stages. To enhance clinical translation, future research should leverage multi-omics, connectomic mapping, and bioengineered platforms (e.g., organoids and brain-on-chip) to identify early molecular markers and targeted neuroprotective interventions.

9. Alcohol-to-Go Laws During COVID-19: Restaurant Visits, DUI Arrests, and Alcohol-Impaired Traffic Fatalities.
PMID:日期:2026-08-31This study evaluates whether pandemic-era "alcohol-to-go" laws, adopted in most U.S. states to support restaurants and bars, produced measurable effects on economic activity and impaired driving. We used a staggered difference-in-differences design to compare outcomes in states that adopted alcohol-to-go laws between 2020 and 2021 to never-adopting states. Policy adoption dates were drawn from the Alcohol Policy Information System. Outcomes were measured using three complementary datasets: (1) SafeGraph Patterns for weekly restaurant and bar visits (2019-2022), (2) the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) for non-fatal DUI arrests (2018-2022), and (3) the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) for alcohol-impaired traffic fatalities (2018-2022). Analyses were conducted at the county-month level. Alcohol-to-go laws did not produce consistent or durable changes in levels of restaurant or bar visitation. Average treatment effects on visits were small and statistically insignificant across adoption cohorts. Similarly, we found no systematic evidence that alcohol-to-go laws affected DUI arrest rates or alcohol-involved traffic fatalities. The instances where we found significant effects were limited to isolated adoption cohorts or settings and lacked broader generalizability. Alcohol-to-go policies neither delivered the economic relief anticipated by policymakers nor generated the public safety harms feared by critics. Findings suggest these laws produced limited, context-dependent effects. As states debate whether to make such provisions permanent, evidence indicates caution is warranted: benefits appear narrow while risks remain uncertain.

10. Age-Varying Associations Between Cannabis Use and Cannabis-Specific Risk Factors Among Latinx Youth in the United States by Urbanicity.
PMID:日期:2026-08-31The prevalence of cannabis use has increased sharply from adolescence through young adulthood in recent U.S. cohorts. However, little is known about how cannabis-specific risk factors and their associations with use vary during these developmental periods. Understanding these associations among Latinx youth, the fastest-growing ethnic minority group, and within urbanicity groups, which may influence risk, is critical. Data were from Latinx participants ages 14-29 (=29,061) in the 2015-2019 National Survey on Drug Use and Health. Time-varying effect models were used to estimate age trends in any and weekly 30-day cannabis use and three key risk factors: perceived risk of monthly and weekly cannabis use and perceived ease of access. Additional models assessed age-varying associations between each risk factor and cannabis use. All models were stratified by urbanicity (large urban, small urban, and rural). Cannabis use and perceived ease of access increased with age and peaked in early adulthood, whereas perceived risks of cannabis use declined with age. These developmental prevalence patterns were broadly similar across urbanicity groups. Risk factors were consistently associated with greater odds of cannabis use across the age range, with the strongest associations observed in early adolescence. Overall association patterns differed only slightly by urbanicity. Findings highlight important developmental shifts in cannabis use and associated risk factors from adolescence through young adulthood among Latinx youth. Developmentally timed prevention strategies are needed to address rising cannabis use during adolescence and young adulthood in this growing population.
