In this issue of Cell, Wei et al. show that the increased cardiovascular risks associated with cannabis use are mediated by proinflammatory cannabinoid 1 (CB1) receptor signaling, which can be ameliorated with the natural antioxidant agent genistein.

Introduction: Opioid overdose and blood-borne virus transmission are key health risks for people who inject drugs. Existing study methods that record data on injecting drug risks mostly rely on retrospective self-reporting that, while valid, are limited to being broad and subject to recall bias. The In-The-Moment-Expanded (ITM-Ex) study will evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of multiple novel data collection methods to capture in situ drug injecting data.
