“…Cocaine paste (known as paco or basuco) is a cheap, smoked, cocaine production by-product that shows a high prevalence of use among individuals from marginalised communities. 107 Compared to powder cocaine, it is associated with increased psychiatric morbidity 108 and higher levels of neuropsychological impairment. 109 Solvent inhalation is particularly associated with use among homeless populations and street children in Latin America.…”

Psychiatric and neurological disorders more frequently present together in Latin America than in high income regions. From the impact of armed conflict and political violence, to the neuropsychiatric consequences of neglected tropical diseases, Latin America has a unique profile of region-specific risk factors that mean it is not always well-served by neuropsychiatric practice developed in, and for, high income regions. Here, we address this problem by: i) characterising key health issues in Latin America by synthesising evidence on the neuropsychiatric characteristics of traumatic brain injury, stroke, epilepsy, dementia, functional neurological disorder, infectious disease, environmental health risks, and substance use in the region, ii) reviewing the structural challenges for neuropsychiatric health in the Latin America, both in terms of those facing the population and those facing professionals and researchers, and finally, iii) identifying priorities to advance a uniquely Latin American field of neuropsychiatry, across research, training, and care delivery, that has much to gain for people in the region and much to offer the world.

Background: Alcohol use disorders (AUD), drug use disorders (DUD), interpersonal violence, and self-harm are a major public health concern globally, with high rates of disability, morbidity, and mortality associated with this. To estimate the burden, trends, forecasts, and disparities of AUD, DUD, interpersonal violence, and self-harm among all ages and sexes from 1990 to 2021. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study that used data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 in 204 countries and territories. The incidence, deaths, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), projection, and the inequality were estimated for AUD, DUD, interpersonal violence, and self-harm among all age and sex. Finding: In 2021, there were 55.78 million new cases of AUD, 13.61 million new cases of DUD, 29.40 million new cases of interpersonal violence, 5.49 million new cases of self-harm globally, while in 2040 will be 51.98 million of AUD, 13.81 million of DUD, 36.01 million of interpersonal violence, and 10.55 million of self-harm. The burden of age standardized rates of incidence, mortality, and DALYs for AUD, DUD, interpersonal violence, and self-harm were higher in male than in female across all ages. Meanwhile, ages 15-49 have the highest burden of DUD, interpersonal violence, and self-harm, and ages 50-74 have the highest burden of AUD. We also found that 68.45% of attributable deaths due to self-harm and interpersonal violence were related to AUD, and 11.11% related to DUD based on GBD 2021 results. Between 1990 and 2021, both the slope index of inequality and relative concentration index decreased for AUD and interpersonal violence, and increased for DUD and self-harm. Interpretation: Multilevel interventions should be initiated to prevent disease burden related to DUD, interpersonal violence, and self-harm among individuals ages 15-49, and the burden of disease related to AUD among individuals ages 50-75, especially among male. Policy for the management of alcohol and drug use can also simultaneously reduce the social burden of interpersonal violence and self-harm.
