We did not collect post-discharge outcomes, such as subsequent emergency visits, hospitalizations, or post-discharge death,. General MSI epidemiological findings in our 691 patients are outlined in supplements. A total of 17 patients were excluded for incomplete documentation. Of these records, 279 occurred before the start of the EMTP on November 1, 2013, while 395 occurred […]

The ASI is a standardized data collection tool that has excellent psychometric properties
The most common symptoms reported in our study were cough, shortness of breath, and vomiting, each occurring separately in five patients. Three patients presented with chest pain. Two patients presented with altered mental status in the form of unresponsiveness, with one patient requiring intubation. The other unresponsive patient, a 16-year-old male, returned to a normal […]
Alcohol and water were delivered through Teflon tubing using a computer-controlled delivery system
There was a minimum wash-out period between medication conditions of 7 days, with a range of 7-10 days. Regarding medication adherence, naltrexone and placebo capsules were packaged with 50mg of riboflavin. A visual inspection of riboflavin content under ultraviolet light indicated that all urine samples tested positive for riboflavin content. Participants completed a modified version […]
Cells were fixed once again with 1% paraformaldehyde prior to storage and analysis
Carayon and associates generated and purified polyclonal rabbit anti-CB2 antibody directed against the C-terminal of human CB2. As fixation and permeabilization were required for antigen detection, their approach precluded a comparison between extracellular and intracellular staining. A fluorescent signal was detected from stained B cells and was inhibited by excess peptide, but the findings were much less […]
It makes most sense to focus on limiting youth access rather than banning e-cigarettes completely
Substance use screening for women of reproductive age prior to conception may be useful for identifying frequent users who are most at risk for continued use during pregnancy. Screening and documentation of patients use of tobacco and delivery of brief cessation counseling is now routine in many US healthcare systems , and some healthcare systems […]
The reciprocity index is the proportion of ties that were reciprocal
We also control for the effects of how ego’s use of one substance was influenced by alters’ use of two other substances. In the network equation, we include endogenous network effects and homophily selection effects for each substance use behavior as well as additional covariates such as race , gender, grade, and parental education as the […]
Few studies have examined the combined associations of MA use and HIV on sleep disturbance
Global neuropsychological impairment and dependence on basic and instrumental activities of daily living are more common among PWH who also use MA than among those who do not, with an additive effect of HIV and MA on neuronal injury and glial activation . Despite these negative effects, perceived benefits, such as sexual enhancement and relief of […]
Eleven percent of the sample did not know or declined to provide income data
Seventeen percent of 12th graders reported past 2-week binge alcohol use in 2020 , defined as five or more drinks on the same occasion on at least 1 day in the past 30 days in males . Adolescents tend to drink more alcohol per occasion, yet less frequently than adults . Binge drinking may have […]
This suggests that placebo effects are a set of adaptive mechanisms that shape nociceptive signaling
The dynamic pain connectome model was derived from brain imaging data in healthy subjects who had mind-wandering away from a painful stimulus. This work found that most brain regions were activated by noxious stimuli whether the mind wandered away from the stimulus or not. The responses of the salience and default mode networks and connectivity […]
Cannabis and alcohol are two of the oldest drugs used by humans
As the VLF and LF are mainly driven by sympathetic activity, RMSSD, NN9, pNN9, and HF are driven by the parasympathetic, SDNN reflects the overall HRV, these results suggested that all of these products decreased the overall HRV, especially the sympathetic modulations. To determine if different smoking/vaping products may induce cardiac fibrosis, heart sections were […]
