Until recently, the molecular basis of the condition was largely unknown. A recent study has identified a section of duplicated DNA on the X chromosome of those with the condition which appears to be the underlying cause of the syndrome.

Objectives: Overdoses are a leading cause of maternal mortality in the US, but limited evidence exists about patterns of nonfatal overdose, a key risk factor for subsequent fatal overdose, or of other drug-related harms. Here, we estimate prevalences of nonfatal overdose and injection-related endocarditis and abscesses/cellulitis across the 21 months spanning pregnancy and the postpartum year.

Methods: Among people who experienced an in-hospital birth in New York State between 9/1/2016 and 1/1/2018 (N=330,872), we estimated the prevalences of hospital-based diagnoses of nonfatal overdose and of injection-related bacterial infections (i.

Background: While evidence suggests Medicaid expansion can reduce overdose, some expressed concern expansion fueled the US opioid overdose crisis by increasing access to low-cost prescription opioids diverted for non-prescribed use. Ecologic studies find a protective relationship or no relationship between expansion and area-level opioid prescribing. Little is known about the relationship between expansion and opioid use among people experiencing poverty who inject drugs (PWID), a population at heightened risk of overdose likely to benefit from Medicaid expansion.
