Harm reduction and its monitoring in Europe, from EMCDDA to EUDA.
Harm Reduct J
December 2024
EUDA, Praça Europa 1, Cais do Sodré, 1249-289, Lisbon, Portugal.
Background: Harm Reduction, conceptualized by Russell Newcombe in the late 1980s, has revolutionized how drug use, individuals who use drugs, and drug policies are understood globally. Emerging from the HIV/AIDS crisis, Harm Reduction sought to address the dire rates of drug-related infections and the overwhelming burden on healthcare providers. Early initiatives, such as Opioid Substitution Treatment (OST) and needle exchange programs, were met with resistance but gradually established new standards of care, transforming attitudes toward people who use drugs and prioritizing human-centered, rather than solely medical, approaches.

J Aging Health
December 2024
Leonard Davis School of Gerontology, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA, USA.
Purpose: Pain and depression are linked to higher mortality risk and lower subjective survival probabilities (SSPs). We examine if SSPs for individuals with pain and depression match their actual lifespans.
Methods: Using data on 12,745 Health and Retirement Study respondents aged 57-89 in 2000 with follow-up through 2018, we assessed whether respondents' SSPs were "correct," "underestimated," or "overestimated" relative to their lifespans.
What determines outward FDI in developing blocs? A new empirical comparative macroeconomic perspective of post 1990s.
Heliyon
December 2024
School of Management and Entrepreneurship, Indian Institute of Technology, Jodhpur, Jodhpur, 342030, Rajasthan, India.
This study compares the relationships between important macroeconomic variables and outward foreign direct investment (OFDI) in the economies of the BRICS and N-11 countries between 1990 and 2019. The analysis employs a comprehensive econometric framework, with ordinary least squares (OLS) serving as the baseline model, followed by three-stage least squares (3SLS) to account for simultaneous relationships, and the generalized method of moments (GMM) for the robustness check to handle any endogeneity. The primary macroeconomic factors that are examined are GDP, financial development, trade openness, technological advancement, human capital, and inward foreign direct investment.
