Beyond the Outburst: Charting a New Frontier for Understanding and Treating Irritability in Autistic Adults

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Irritability is a prevalent and impairing feature associated with autism, yet remains poorly understood, particularly in adults. Drawing heavily on insights translated from pediatric and transdiagnostic literatures, we propose that irritability in autistic individuals often reflects a psychophysiological stress or threat response, rooted in a ...

Exploring new avenues: Psychedelic‐assisted therapy for young people

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Rates of mental illness in young people are increasing, whereas the development of novel mental health treatments has not significantly progressed. Psychedelic‐assisted therapy, using substances such as psilocybin and 3,4‐methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), has shown potential in the treatment of mental illnesses in the adult population, including ...

Evaluation of a pantoprazole and 4‐desmethylpantoprazole‐sulfate metabolic ratio as a novel CYP2C19 phenotyping method

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims CYP2C19 is one of the most important pharmacogenes, and its activity is highly variable due to factors such as genetics or drug–drug interactions. Due to the lack of an appropriate endogenous CYP2C19 biomarker, surrogate methods to assess its activity are warranted.

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

open access: yesClinical 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 ...

Recreational Drug Use at a Music Festival: A Dual Approach Using Hair Biomarkers Analysis and Participant Self‐Reported Drug Use

open access: yesDrug 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.

Determination of THC and THC‐COOH in Dried Capillary Blood Spots and Comparison to Venous Blood of Recreational Cannabis Consumers in a Pilot Study

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
A new extraction method was developed and validated for the extraction of THC and THC‐COOH from capillary blood samples collected as dried blood spots. The extracts were analysed using HPLC–MS/MS resulting in high extraction efficiencies for both THC and THC‐COOH.

Exploring Cerumen as an Alternative Matrix for Drug Detection and Quantification: Method Development and Application in Clinical Samples

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
An LC–MS/MS method was developed for the detection of 33 psychoactive medications in cerumen (earwax) and applied to the samples of 60 psychiatric inpatient volunteers. The findings highlighted the utility of cerumen as an innovative biospecimen in clinical toxicological analysis.

In Vitro Metabolism of Δ8‐, Δ9‐, and Δ10‐THC in Human Hepatocytes: Distinct Δ10‐THC Biotransformation and Implications for Drug Testing

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
Δ8‐THC and Δ9‐THC showed comparable metabolic profiles. In contrast, Δ10‐THC underwent extensive glucuronidation and hydroxylation, with only minor formation of a carboxy metabolite, indicating a markedly different metabolic pathway. These differences may increase the risk of misidentification and misinterpretation in cannabis drug testing.
