“…Concerning the association between academic performance and psychoactive substance consumption, several authors observed a link between lower levels of academic achievement and the use of tobacco, alcohol, and cannabis among adolescents (Kinnunen et al, 2022 ). Lastly, as reported by literature, also risk perception constructs seem to have a role on both legal and illegal psychoactive substances use among adolescents (Salloum et al, 2018 ; Russell et al, 2020 ; Gravenstein et al, 2020 ).…”

“…As postulated by the literature, several social and psychological factors may contribute to the use of both legal and illegal psychoactive substances among adolescents, for instance: family environment and functioning, peers influence, self-dissatisfaction, academic performance, and risk perception (Gray & Squeglia, 2018 ; Lee et al, 2018 ; Mathew et al, 2018 ; Salloum et al, 2018 ; Russell et al, 2020 ; Gravenstein et al, 2020 ; Henneberger et al, 2021 ; Kinnunen et al, 2022 ). These variables are also significant from a preventive point of view and are the main target of many prevention programs targeting adolescents (Ferri et al, 2013 ; EMCDDA, 2019 ; Xchange prevention registry).…”

Background Italy was one of the first European countries to be affected by Covid-19. Due to the severity of the pandemic, the Italian government imposed a nationwide lockdown which had a great impact on the population, especially adolescents. Distance-learning, moving restrictions and pandemic-related concerns, resulted in a particularly stressful situation. Objective This cross-sectional study aims to analyse substance consumption and its associated factors during the Covid-19 lockdown imposed by the Italian government. Methods ESPAD is a questionnaire that is administered yearly in Italian high schools. In 2020, it was administered online during dedicated hours of distance learning, collecting data from 6027 Italian students (52.4% were male) aged 15–19. Data collected from the 2020 questionnaire was matched with that collected in 2019, in order to make them comparable. Results The prevalence of consumption of each substance decreased during the restriction period, and the most used substance during the lockdown period was alcohol (43.1%). There were some changes in factors associated with psychoactive substance use, especially painkillers and non-prescription drugs. For instance, unlike what was observed in the 2019 model, in 2020 spending money without parental control was associated with painkillers and non-prescription drug use while risk perception was not. Conclusions The restrictions and the increased difficulties in obtaining psychoactive substances did not prevent their consumption, and students with particular risk factors continued to use them, possibly changing the substance type of substance. This information is useful in order to better understand adolescents’ substance use during the ongoing pandemic.

Purpose Acute poisoning is a major cause of disability and death in children, but there is a lack of large-scale and multicenter epidemiological data on acute poisoning in children. Patients and Methods The current study was a retrospective analysis of clinical data from 1755 children aged 0 to 14 years who were hospitalized between 01 January 2014 and 31 December 2020 in southwestern China. Results Acute poisoning was common in childhood, particularly in early childhood (607; 34.6%) and preschool (655; 37.3%), and most cases occurred in rural areas (1191; 67.9%). It was more common in boys (934; 53.2%) than in girls (821; 46.8%). In urban areas, poisoning was mainly caused by drugs (266; 47.2%), chemical agents (59; 10.5%), and alcohol (54; 9.6%). In rural areas, it was mainly caused by pesticides (620; 52.1%) and medications (213; 17.9%), the route of poisoning was usually the digestive tract (1671; 95.2%), in most cases the poisoning was accidental (1618; 92.3%), and pesticides (659; 37.5%) and medications (479; 27.3%) predominated. After timely treatment, the majority of patients had no substantial organ damage, sequelae, or disabilities, and mortality was low (17; 1.0%). Conclusion Acute poisoning is a frequent accident in childhood, mainly in infants and preschool children, mostly in rural areas, and poisoning mostly occurs via the digestive tract. Family and community education should be conducted to prevent poisoning.

“…Past research has highlighted one such factor as brain function underlying specific psychological processes in response to different environmental cues. Behavioral work has identified a myriad of social aspects among adolescents in relation to substance use, such as peer influence ( Grevenstein et al, 2020 , Prinstein and Wang, 2005 , Stone et al, 2012 ).…”
