Background: Well-structured monitoring system is crucial to identify interventions for children with Neurodevelopmental Disorders (NDD).
Subjects And Methods: The NIDA Network enrolled more than 760 at risk for NDD and typically developing infants to detect early signs of NDD.
Results: The NIDA Network was born in some Italian regions to engage clinical centers in a research project. It is increasingly turning out to be a national monitoring project well integrated in the Italian National Health System policies.
Conclusions: The NIDA Network activities are finalized at diagnosis and interventions to improve quality of life of children with NDD and their families.

Resting State Functional Connectivity of the Default Mode Network During Opioid Use and Cessation in Treatment-Seeking Persons.
Eur J Neurosci
January 2025
Department of Psychology, University of Georgia, Athens, Georgia, USA.
Resting-state functional connectivity analyses have been used to examine synchrony in neural networks in substance use disorders (SUDs), with the default mode network (DMN) one of the most studied. Prior research has generally found less DMN synchrony during use and greater synchrony during cessation, although little research has utilized this method with opioid use. This study examined resting brain activity in treatment-seeking persons who use opioids at two points-when using opioids and when opioid-free-to determine whether the DMN exhibits different levels of connectivity during opioid use and cessation and whether differences in connectivity predict subsequent relapse.

Am J Gastroenterol
January 2025
Center for Health Equity Research and Promotion, VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System, Pittsburgh, PA.
Objectives: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), an increasing public health concern, remains challenging to diagnose and risk-stratify. We assessed the 1) prevalence of MASLD risk factors among Veterans in Veterans Health Administration (VA) care, 2) factors associated with MASLD diagnosis; and 3) associations between MASLD diagnosis and receipt of care.
Methods: Veterans with MASLD risk factors, including obesity, pre-diabetes, diabetes, or dyslipidemia, were identified using International Classification of Diseases-10 codes and followed in 2019-2022.
Impaired arbitration between reward-related decision-making strategies in Alcohol Users compared to Alcohol Non-Users: a computational modeling study.
NPP Digit Psychiatry Neurosci
January 2025
Department of Psychiatry, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, NY USA.
Article Synopsis
- Reinforcement learning contrasts model-free (habitual) and model-based (goal-directed) decision-making, with the latter being more common in high-reward scenarios.
- A study involving 81 participants revealed that frequent alcohol users lacked the ability to adjust their decision-making strategies based on reward levels, unlike non-users who displayed better model-based control in high-reward settings.
- Both groups were less risk-averse in high stakes, but alcohol users were generally more prone to risky decisions and showed impaired flexibility in adapting to changing reward conditions.
Willingness to Use Oral and Long-Acting Injectable PrEP in Substance-Using Men who have Sex with Men (SU-MSM) in High HIV Incidence Southern U.S. Cities: A NIDA Clinical Trials Network Study.
AIDS Behav

University of Washington Addictions, Drug & Alcohol Institute, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Seattle, WA, USA.
In Southern U.S. states with high HIV incidence and low HIV Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) uptake, enhanced efforts to increase interest in and willingness to use PrEP are needed.

Int J Methods Psychiatr Res
March 2025
Department of Mental Health, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Baltimore, Maryland, USA.
Objectives: Heterogeneity of treatment effect (HTE) is a concern in substance use disorder (SUD) treatments but has not been rigorously examined. This exploratory study applied a causal forest approach to examine HTE in psychosocial SUD treatments, considering multiple covariates simultaneously.
Methods: Data from 12 randomized controlled trials of nine psychosocial treatments were obtained from the National Institute on Drug Abuse Clinical Trials Network.
