The aim of the work was to study changes in local microhemodynamic indices in drug addicted patients in the course of the treatment of chronic odontogenic osteomyelitis. Assessment of tissue blood flow in gingival mucosa in patients with chronic osteomyelitis was performed using Laser doppler flowmetry. All patients were divided into two groups, namely treatment (n=21) and control (n=19). Sequestrectomy was performed to the patients from the treatment group with a bone defect closed with a concomitant use of PRP gel and FRP membranes. The same surgery was performed to patients from control group with a bone defect closed with iodoform tampon. During the study it was revealed that sequestrectomy with use of PRP gel and FRP membranes leads to rapid decrease in local postoperative inflammatory reactions, improvement of venous outflow and better functioning of microvessels endothelium and general optimization of the tissue healing process in drug addicted patients with chronic odontogenic osteomyelitis.

Objective: Alcohol and Other Drug (AOD) disorders cause substantial harm. Effective Substance Use Treatment (SUT) exists, but long-term outcomes remain inconclusive. This study used a 20-year prospective follow-up of 1248 service users entering SUT in Stockholm, Sweden, in 2000-2002 to elaborate on how different dimensions of long-term outcomes may be measured by register-based indicators.

Little is known about how exclusive e-cigarette use affects exosomal microRNA (miRNA) expression, which is crucial in inflammation and disease processes like cancer. We compared exosomal miRNA profiles between exclusive e-cigarette users and non-users. We used plasma samples from 15 exclusive e-cigarette users and 15 non-users from the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Wave 1 study (2013-2014) and sequenced miRNAs with Illumina NextSeq 500/550.

Background: Driving under the influence of alcohol and other drugs contributes significantly to road traffic crashes worldwide. This study explored trends of alcohol, methylamphetamine (MA), 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-methylamphetamine (MDMA) and Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), in road crashes from 2010 to 2019 in Victoria, Australia.

Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional analysis using data from the Victorian Institute of Forensic Medicine and Victoria Police, examining proscribed drug detections in road crashes.

Fentanyl and its derivatives (nonpharmaceutical fentanyl, NPFs) represent the largest group among synthetic opioids. Fentanyl-related deaths and fatalities from tampering with pharmaceutical products have been reported. Furthermore, in the United States, adulterants such as xylazine and other substances, including the nitazenes class of opioids, have been found in an increasing number of unintentional overdose deaths, drug seizures, and reports of use by recreational drug users.
