Cannabis Dependence remains a highly prevalent disorder in the United States. Though longitudinal studies have accumulated data regarding risk factors and psychosocial correlates of habitual cannabis use, the field lacks knowledge regarding predictors of recovery in community samples. Thus we conducted a secondary data analysis of The National Epidemiological Survey on Alcohol and Related Conditions to address this issue. Recovery was defined as the absence of Cannabis Dependence and Cannabis Abuse during the past year. Logistic Regression analysis revealed that older age, marriage, and non-daily cannabis use were positively associated with recovery.

Brain Function Outcomes of Recent and Lifetime Cannabis Use.
JAMA Netw Open
January 2025
Laboratory of NeuroImaging, National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, Bethesda, Maryland.
Importance: Cannabis use has increased globally, but its effects on brain function are not fully known, highlighting the need to better determine recent and long-term brain activation outcomes of cannabis use.
Objective: To examine the association of lifetime history of heavy cannabis use and recent cannabis use with brain activation across a range of brain functions in a large sample of young adults in the US.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This cross-sectional study used data (2017 release) from the Human Connectome Project (collected between August 2012 and 2015).

Young men who have sex with men (YMSM) have high rates of substance use, which increases their risk for HIV. Digital Health Interventions (DHI) have the potential to address HIV risk overall and reduce harms in the context of substance use. However, there is limited research on how YMSM with different substance use patterns respond to HIV DHIs and how these programs impact participant outcomes.

Background: Early life stress (ELS) increases the risk of substance use disorder (SUD) in adulthood. The pathway from ELS to SUD is hypothesized to be influenced by sex. We examine the impact of ELS on adolescent first substance use, a common precursor to adult SUDs, and test for sex differences in the relationship between ELS and risk of first use of alcohol, nicotine, and marijuana.

Patients with schizophrenia often find themselves in vulnerable situations because their cognitive impairments can make them more susceptible to exploitation and crime. A prevalent misconception is that schizophrenia is synonymous with violence, possibly fueled by selective media coverage that highlights instances of violent crimes involving individuals with schizophrenia. In reality, a large percentage of people with schizophrenia do not display violent behavior.

Modelling the prodrome to severe mental disorders (SMD), including unipolar mood disorders (UMD), bipolar mood disorders (BMD) and psychotic disorders (PSY), should consider both the evolution and interactions of symptoms and substance use (prodromal features) over time. Temporal network analysis can detect causal dependence between and within prodromal features by representing prodromal features as nodes, with their connections (edges) indicating the likelihood of one feature preceding the other. In SMD, node centrality could reveal insights into important prodromal features and potential intervention targets.
