Comparative effectiveness, safety and acceptability of pharmacological and psychosocial interventions for the treatment of cannabis use disorder: A network meta‐analysis

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Our primary aim was to conduct a network meta‐analysis (NMA) for the effectiveness, safety and acceptability of all psychosocial interventions and all pharmacotherapies for cannabis use disorder (CUD). Methods We conducted a NMA of studies identified from two completed systematic reviews examining the effectiveness, safety and ...

The policy adjacent: How affordable housing generates policy feedback among neighboring residents

American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract While scholars have documented feedback effects among a policy's direct winners and losers, less is known about whether such effects can occur among the indirectly affected—“the policy adjacent.” Using 458 geocoded housing developments built between two nearly identical statewide ballot propositions funding affordable housing in California, we
