The comorbidity of mental disorders and substance dependence is well documented, but prospective investigations in community samples are rare. This investigation examines the role primary as risk factors for later onset nicotine, alcohol illicit drug use, abuse with abuse.
ContextAmong illicit substance use disorders, marijuana disorders are the most prevalent in population. Yet, information about prevalence of current Diagnostic and Statistical Manual Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition (DSM-IV) how has changed is lacking.ObjectiveTo examine changes use, abuse, dependence United States between 1991-1992 2001-2002.Design, Setting, ParticipantsFace-to-face interviews were conducted 2 large national surveys 10 years apart: National Longitudinal Alcohol...
Substance use is a major cause of disability globally. This has been recognized in the recent United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which treatment coverage for substance disorders identified as one indicators. There have no estimates this cross‐nationally, making it difficult to know what baseline that SDG target. Here we report data from World Health Organization (WHO)'s Mental Surveys (WMHS), based on representative community household surveys 26 countries. We assessed...
The Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study of 11,880 youth incorporates a comprehensive range measures assessing predictors and outcomes related to mental health across childhood adolescence in participating youth, as well information about family history. We have previously described the logic content assessment battery at Baseline 1-year follow-up. Here, we describe changes that issues clarifications emerged, additions 2-, 3-, 4-, 5-year follow-ups. capitalize on recent...
Continued progress in etiological research and prevention science requires more precise information concerning the specific stages at which socio-demographic variables are implicated most strongly transition from initial substance use to dependence. The present study examines prospective associations between subsequent onset of alcohol drug dependence using data National Comorbidity Survey (NCS) NCS Follow-up survey (NCS-2).
Background Although mental disorders have been shown to predict subsequent substance disorders, it is not known whether could be cost-effectively prevented by large-scale interventions aimed at prior disorders. experimental intervention the only way resolve this uncertainty, a logically question associations of with are strong enough justify mounting such an intervention. We investigated in study using simulations estimate number that might under several hypothetical scenarios focused on...
Background The ‘gateway’ pattern of drug initiation describes a normative sequence, beginning with alcohol and tobacco use, followed by cannabis, then other illicit drugs. Previous work has suggested that ‘violations’ this sequence may be predictors later problems but determinants were not considered. We have examined the role pre-existing mental disorders sociodemographics in explaining predictive effects violations using data from US National Comorbidity Survey Replication (NCS-R). Method...
Over the past 20 years we have accumulated a greater knowledge and understanding of genetic, neurobiological, behavioral factors that may be associated with young people initiating use drugs other substances to progressing from abuse dependence. This suggests individuals “predisposed” substance disorders (SUD) actual engagement in these behaviors depends on their environmental experiences micro macro levels. paper summarizes this base supports developmental framework examines interaction...
Incidental findings (IFs) are unexpected abnormalities discovered during imaging and can range from normal anatomic variants to requiring urgent medical intervention. In the case of brain magnetic resonance (MRI), reliable data about prevalence significance IFs in general population limited, making it difficult anticipate, communicate, manage these findings.To determine overall MRI nonclinical pediatric as well rates specific for which clinical referral is recommended.This cohort study was...
Drug abuse research and theory has become much more sophisticated over the last 2 decades, some of advancements parallel concepts that are part developmental psychopathology approach. The application perspective to recent drug findings can provide a greater understanding information point important areas future research. Among discussed here viewed from this antecedent co-occurring psychopathological conditions other problem behaviors; diversity nature of, paths to, processes outcomes...
Abstract Background and aims The World Health Organization's (WHO's) proposed International Classification of Diseases, 11th edition (ICD‐11) includes several major revisions to substance use disorder (SUD) diagnoses. It is essential ensure the consistency within‐subject diagnostic findings throughout countries, languages cultures. To date, agreement analyses between different SUD systems have largely been based in high‐income countries clinical samples rather than general population...
