Objective: To compare the 2017 National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine cannabis report to state medical cannabis (MC) laws defining approved qualifying conditions (QC) from 2017 and 2024 and to determine the evidence level of the QCs approved in each state.
Patients And Methods: The 2017 National Academies of Sciences (NAS) report assessed therapeutic evidence for over 20 medical conditions treated with MC. We identified the QCs of 38 states (including Washington DC) where MC was legal in 2024 and compared them to the QCs listed by these states in 2017.

This study investigates changes in cannabis use at a transplant center over time, as well as the impact of cannabis use on post-LT opioid use, healthcare utilization, and mortality.

Genetic research on nicotine dependence has utilized multiple assessments that are in weak agreement. We conducted a genome-wide association study of nicotine dependence defined using the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-NicDep) in 61,861 individuals (47,884 of European ancestry, 10,231 of African ancestry, 3,746 of East Asian ancestry) and compared the results to other nicotine-related phenotypes. We replicated the well-known association at the locus (lead SNP: rs147144681, p =1.

Methods: Using the PearlDiver national data set (2010-2020), adult patients with a scaphoid fracture were identified. Patients initially treated with nonoperative management were selected, and 3 subgroups were defined: non-cannabis/non-tobacco (non-users), tobacco-only, cannabis-only.

Objective: This study investigated young adults' (YAs) experiences with tolerance breaks (temporary abstinence from cannabis; T-breaks).
Method: In Study 1, 15 YAs who used cannabis completed a qualitative interview. In Study 2, 66 YAs who used cannabis at least 2x/week completed online survey items assessing T-break familiarity, definitions, motivations, and experiences.
