Educational pathways and outcomes for care‐experienced children: A 16‐year longitudinal study

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Children who are removed from their birth families during childhood—termed care‐experienced—can be at risk for lower educational attainment and poorer school experiences, often linked to deprivation and behavioural factors. However, research often uses aggregated measures that obscure the complexities of care (e.g.

The Drug Problem and Organized Crime, Illicit Financial Flows, Corruption and Terrorism [PDF]

, 2017
An estimated quarter of a billion people, or around 5 per cent of the global adult population, used drugs at least once in 2015. Even more worrisome is the fact that about 29.5 million of those drug users, or 0.6 per cent of the global adult population ...

Patient‐ and Clinician‐Related Factors Associated With the Reduction in Opioid Use Among Adults With Chronic Non‐Cancer Pain: A Systematic Review

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Despite known risks, opioids are widely used for chronic non‐cancer pain (CNCP). Clinical guidelines now recommend deprescribing, but factors predicting success are poorly understood. This systematic review aimed to identify clinician and patient factors associated with attaining successful opioid dose reduction or discontinuation in adults with CNCP ...

Opioid Toxicity Following Concomitant Use of Macrolide Antibiotics with Fentanyl, Hydromorphone, or Oxycodone: A Population‐Based Study

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Fentanyl, hydromorphone, and oxycodone are metabolized by cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4). Co‐administration with CYP3A4‐inhibiting macrolides (clarithromycin or erythromycin) may increase opioid concentrations and overdose risk, but the clinical impact of these interactions is unknown.

Effect of Reaction Time and Temperature on the Impurity Profile of Amphetamine in the Leuckart Method

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
This study investigates the effect of the reaction temperature (step 1) and reaction time (step 1 and 2) on the conversion efficiency and impurity profile of amphetamine synthesized via the Leuckart method. Conversion efficiency and impurity profile were assessed using gas chromatography–flame ionization detection (GC–FID) and GC–mass spectrometry (GC ...
