In Brief Fibromyalgia and opioid use disorder (OUD) are highly impactful chronic illnesses with substantially overlapping psychosocial, biological, clinical features. Little previous research has examined interactions between fibromyalgia OUD. Limiting such been the requirement of a examination to diagnose fibromyalgia. The 2011 American College Rheumatology Survey (ACR-FMS) is validated self-report instrument high sensitivity specificity for intended enable in settings where impractical....
Background: Discovery of modifiable factors influencing subjective withdrawal experience might advance opioid use disorder (OUD) research and precision treatment. This study explores one factor – catastrophizing a negative cognitive emotional orientation toward characterized by excessive fear, worry or inability to divert attention from symptoms.
Heavy chronic alcohol use may produce pain amplification through neurochemical and neuroplastic changes at multiple levels of the nervous system. Similar are thought to underlie nociplastic pain. The American College Rheumatology Fibromyalgia Survey has been used as a surrogate for pain, including among individuals with disorder (AUD). However, studies linking pain-motivated drinking lacking. present study aimed determine if is associated in AUD. To achieve this aim, new scale-the...
Background Central sensitization is an important mechanism underlying many chronic pain conditions. Chronic and alcohol use disorder (AUD) are highly comorbid. Despite great scientific interest in brain mechanisms linking AUD, progress has been impeded by difficulty assessing central AUD.
In 2020 COVID-19 was the third leading cause of death in United States. Increases suicides, overdoses, and alcohol related deaths were seen-which make up despair. How despair compare to across racial, ethnic, gender subpopulations is relatively unknown. Preliminary studies showed inequalities mortality for Black Hispanic Americans pandemic's onset. This study analyzes ethnic disparities years life lost due (suicide, overdose, deaths) 2020.This cross-sectional calculated compared (YLL) Deaths...
Background: Withdrawal is believed to play a central role in the brain disease model of addiction. However, little research describes withdrawal-motives among untreated individuals community settings. Methods: This cross-sectional study surveyed syringe exchange program participants (n = 139) with opioid use disorder (OUD) Columbus, Ohio from January 10th March 25th, 2023, assess their perceptions withdrawal OUD maintenance, treatment delay, and OUD's refractoriness buprenorphine....
The present study aims to compare Years of Life Lost for unintentional drug overdose and the leading underlying causes death in United States annually from 2017 2019. provide valuable context incident deaths when comparing relative mortality burden death. Prior research has shown was third cause state Ohio 2017. However, this finding yet be replicated at national level US. Death statistics 2017–2019 were accessed via CDC WONDER. calculated each top five US during period. Unintentional caused...

This cross-sectional study examines years of life lost among the top 3 causes death and compares firearm suicide with other methods individuals aged 10 to 24 in US.
Background Previous research has found chronic pain to be prevalent among individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD). The perception that is related OUD onset, maintenance, relapse, and treatment delay been noted in this population. However, prior works primarily involved treatment-engaged populations. Scant describes such perceptions non-treatment-seeking individuals.
This cross-sectional study explores health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and the challenges to physical, emotional, social functioning among individuals with opioid use disorder.
Background/Objectives Chronic pain is an opioid use disorder (OUD) treatment barrier and associated with poor outcomes in OUD including relapse. Fibromyalgia a chronic condition related to central nervous system substrates that overlap the brain disease model of OUD. We know no studies have looked at non-treatment seeking individuals, see if fibromyalgia might represent treatment. Given many non-treatment-seeking individuals previously attempted recovery before experiencing relapse, known...
Background Racial discrimination is associated with health disparities among Black Americans, a group that has experienced an increase in rates of fatal drug overdose. Prior research found racial the medical setting may be barrier to addiction treatment. Nevertheless, it unknown how experiences might impact engagement emergency services for accidental This study will psychometrically assess new measure hesitancy seeking overdose and examine prior group-based mistrust as potential corollaries...
