“…In more contemporary studies in Europe, Swedish men were much more likely to be apprehended for driving under the influence of cannabis than women, and had higher circulating levels of THC in samples taken at the time of arrest as well (Jones et al, 2008). Likewise, in France, more men presented to the emergency department over a two-year period ranging from 2009–2011 for mental and behavioral disturbances related to cannabinoid intoxication than did women (Le Querrec et al, 2015). Moreover, in the United States, males are more likely to use the emergently popular, synthetic cannabinoid formulation K2 (a.k.a., spice) than women (Hu et al, 2011).…”

Considerable strides have been made over the past 20 years in our understanding of the ligands, receptor subtypes, signal transduction mechanisms and biological actions comprising the endocannabinoid system. From the ever-expanding number of studies that have been conducted during this time, it has become increasingly clear that sex differences are the cornerstone of cannabinoid-regulated biology. Available evidence has demonstrated that these sex differences endure in the absence of gonadal steroids, and are modulated by the acute, activational effects of these hormones. This review focuses on select aspects of sexually differentiated, cannabinoid-regulated biology, with a particular emphasis on the control of energy balance. It is anticipated that it will lend impactful insight into the pervasive and diverse disparities in how males and females respond to cannabinoids – from the organismal level down to the molecular level. Additionally, it will furnish a newfound appreciation for the need to recalibrate our thinking in terms of how cannabinoids are used as therapeutic adjuvants for a broad range of clinical disorders and associated comorbidities, including body wasting and obesity.

“…38,43 Age is one of the most important features responsible for the fast growth of substance use. The report showed that psychoactive substance-related mental and behavioral problems are 44 This could be due to the fact that younger age is the time when people start to practice something that they perceived to be new or told to do so by peers. As the young are encouraged to use the substance by the people around them or the environment, they can be easily immersed in the problem without knowing the health ill effect of using these substances.…”

Psychoactive substance use is a growing health problem in both developing and developed countries. Despite adolescents being at high risk of practicing risky behaviors including substance use, there is no adequate information on the problem in the Harari Region, in the Eastern part of Ethiopia. Hence, the present study aimed to identify the burden of current substance use in high school adolescent students of Harari Region, Ethiopia, from 10th April to 10th May 2022. Methods: A school-based cross-sectional study was employed on a total of 1498 randomly selected adolescent students. Poisson regression was used for the assessment of substance use over the last three months among adolescent students. The substance use burden was reported by IRR (incidence rate ratio) at a 95% Confidence interval. The final model fitness was checked using Akaike information criterion (AIC) and Bayesian information criterion (BIC) reports. The variables that had less than 0.05 P-value were declared to be statistically significant.

“…Most ICD-9 and ICD-10 codes were available through the Chronic Conditions Data Warehouse. 14 For those that were not, we looked to published studies on similar populations [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28] and mapped equivalent diagnoses between ICD-9 and ICD-10 (Online Appendix Table 2). When creating the eligible population, we looked at all Part A and Part B claims for each beneficiary from January 1, 2013, to June 30, 2015, and included all conditions that matched the diagnosis codes in Online Appendix Table 2.…”

Use of Chronic Care Management Codes for Medicare Beneficiaries: a Missed Opportunity?

et al. 2018

The CCM code is likely underutilized in New England; the program may therefore not be achieving its intended goal of encouraging consistent, team-based chronic care management for Medicare's most complex beneficiaries. Or practices may be foregoing reimbursement for care coordination that they are already providing. Recently implemented revisions may improve uptake of CCM services; it will be important to compare our results with future utilization.
