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

Comprehensive 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 ...

Patient‐reported outcomes, postoperative pain and pain relief after day‐case surgery (POPPY): baseline data from day surgery practice in the UK

Anaesthesia, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 477-488, April 2026.
Summary Introduction Most patients undergoing elective surgery in the UK are discharged from hospital on the same day. Despite this, there is a lack of UK patient‐centred outcome measures relating to quality of recovery, pain and analgesic use. The POPPY study was a UK‐wide prospective, observational study measuring short‐ and longer‐term patient ...

Usability Testing of Five Fentanyl Test Strip Brands in Real-World Settings

Substance Use & Misuse
Fentanyl test strips (FTS) are a forensic tool designed for laboratory testing of urine samples. They have been adapted into a point-of-consumption drug-checking tool to detect illegally manufactured fentanyl in local drug supply. This creates unknown usability challenges for people who use drugs (PWUD). To assess ease of use in real-world settings, we

Police-led Fentanyl Test Strip Distribution Program in Maine and Massachusetts: An Evaluation

, 2022
Abstract Background: The increase of illicitly manufactured fentanyl in the drug supply and the lack of a reliable fentanyl detection method have led to a public health innovation: the community distribution and use of fentanyl test strips (FTS) to detect presence of fentanyl in drugs. The One2One project, based on a 2020 six-site pilot project,

Xylazine test strip utilization among pregnant and postpartum women with opioid use disorder: A pilot study

Pregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract Introduction The emergence of xylazine, a veterinary alpha‐2 and kappa opioid receptor agonist, as an adulterant in illicitly manufactured fentanyl has created new challenges and risks for pregnant people who use unregulated opioids. Xylazine test strips (XTSs) have been proposed as a harm reduction strategy, but their use has not been studied
