Importance: During buprenorphine treatment for opioid use disorder (OUD), risk factors for opioid relapse or treatment dropout include comorbid substance use disorder, anxiety, or residual opioid craving. There is a need for a well-powered trial to evaluate virtually delivered groups, including both mindfulness and evidence-based approaches, to address these comorbidities during buprenorphine treatment.
Objective: To compare the effects of the Mindful Recovery Opioid Use Disorder Care Continuum (M-ROCC) vs active control among adults receiving buprenorphine for OUD.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) has set goals to eliminate hepatitis C (HCV) as a global health threat by 2030. To meet this goal, Australia must increase testing and diagnosis, including expanding access to care through community pharmacists. This study aims to explore community pharmacists' preparedness to discuss and offer HCV testing and treatment.

Opioid use disorder (OUD) is associated with a reduction in brain white matter, affecting critical areas involved in decision-making, impulse control, and reward processing. The FDA has approved several drugs and natural compounds that enhance myelination, targeting oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs), directly enhancing oligodendrocyte (OL) function, or acting as cofactors for myelin production. This retrospective case study aimed to assess whether current clinical evidence supports the use of myelin-enhancing agents to promote remission in OUD.
