We examined the prevalence and repeat offenses of college men, including fraternity men and student athletes, taking advantage of someone sexually while under the influence of alcohol. Preexisting data from the Core Alcohol and Other Drug Survey included a sample of 12,624 college men at 49 community and 4-year colleges. Results provide further evidence that the problem of campus rape is largely one of serial perpetration. More than 87% of alcohol-involved sexual assault was committed by serial perpetrators. Fraternity men and student athletes were significantly more likely to commit alcohol-involved sexual assault than other men on campus.

Ketamine is a dissociative anesthetic drug that is abused by teenagers and young adults, commonly for recreational purposes in dance clubs, to generate euphoria and dissociation, and sometimes employed as a date-rape drug. Herein, a highly sensitive, and environmentally friendly spectrofluorimetric method was developed for detection of ketamine in pharmaceutical and plasma samples. The technique is based on a nucleophilic substitution reaction occurring between ketamine and NBD-Cl (4-chloro-7-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole), resulting in the formation of a fluorescent derivative that exhibits detectability at a remarkable level.

Background And Purpose: Rape is one of the most common human violations, with devastating consequences for the victims and their families. Although this scourge affects everyone, regardless of gender, studies on rape victimization have largely focused on women and children as the victims. Studies on rape victimization of men are therefore limited and little is known about the consequences of rape victimization for men.

Centre for Nano and Material Sciences, Jain University, Jain Global Campus, Kanakapura, Ramanagaram, Bangalore 562112, India.

Article Synopsis
  • There is a pressing need for a sensitive and quick method to detect ketamine and scopolamine, commonly used in drug-facilitated sexual assaults.
  • Researchers developed electrochemical sensors using N-heterocyclic carbene-coordinated ruthenium polymers combined with multi-walled carbon nanotubes, achieving high sensitivities for both drugs.
  • The sensors demonstrate remarkable selectivity and low detection limits, making them promising tools for on-site detection in forensic investigations of date rape drugs.

High rates of self-blame can lead to increased symptomatology and treatment resistance. There has been a paucity of studies of men who have experienced SV, particularly about self-blame.
