Neural Network‐Based Detection of Adulterants in Opioid Samples Using IR Absorption Spectroscopy

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, Volume 18, Issue 5, Page 619-624, May 2026.
We construct a neural network for the classification of bromazolam and fluorofentanyl in illicit opioid samples. The model outperforms a random forest classifier and shows elevated performance for low concentration samples. ABSTRACT Community‐based drug checking services are challenged in their ability to reliably detect low concentration adulterants ...

Drug poisonings following bariatric surgery: Case series report

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, Volume 92, Issue 4, Page 1247-1255, April 2026.
Bariatric surgery alters gastrointestinal anatomy and physiology, which likely impacts upon oral medication absorption. Drug‐ and alcohol‐related deaths in this population are being increasingly reported; however, toxicological detail is lacking. Using data reported to the National Programme on Substance Use Mortality, we identified 18 deaths in people

GLP‐1 at the Metabolic–Cognitive Interface: Reward, Affect, and Memory

open access: yesComprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 2, April 2026.
GLP‐1R signaling integrates metabolic state with neural circuits controlling reward, mood, and memory, acting as a metabolic‐cognitive interface. In reward pathways, it suppresses hedonic feeding and drug seeking; in affective circuits, sustained signaling promotes anxiolytic and antidepressant effects; and in the hippocampus, it enhances synaptic ...
