Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.Combined self‐report and hair analysis in festival attendees (n = 249) revealed substantial discrepancies in drug use reporting, particularly for stimulants and dissociatives. This integrated approach enhances detection of poly‐drug use and provides a more reliable basis for monitoring and harm‐reduction strategies.

Drug Testing and Analysis, Volume 18, Issue 6, Page 771-776, June 2026.Permanent chemical hair straightening was associated with analyte‐dependent changes in hair concentrations, showing increased endogenous GHB levels and decreased alprazolam concentrations after treatment. These results suggest that chemical hair straightening procedures may influence hair concentrations and should be considered when interpreting hair ...
