Monitoring Injected Drug Use in Greece Through Syringe Residue Analysis: A Multicity Study Within the ESCAPE Network

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.

Population‐Stratified Distributions of Post‐Mortem Blood Drug Concentrations: An Epidemiological Framework for Contextual Interpretation

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
Post‐mortem blood drug concentrations exhibit substantial overlap between deaths in which a drug was implicated and those in which it was not. Analysis of over 58,000 NPSUM cases demonstrates that demographic stratification does not resolve this uncertainty, reinforcing the need for contextual, evidence‐based interpretation rather than concentration ...

GLP‐1 Receptor Agonism Exacerbates Activity‐Based Anorexia in Mice

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor (GLP‐1R) agonists reduce food intake and body weight, suggesting they should be avoided in anorexia nervosa. However, preclinical evidence that these drugs reduce activity and reward‐seeking behavior raises the possibility that they might attenuate the compulsive‐like hyperactivity central to ABA ...

Mechanisms of an Inhibitory Control Training to Reduce Binge Eating—The Randomized Controlled MIND BINGES Trial

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Psychotherapy is the first‐line treatment for eating disorders (EDs), yet only about half of patients benefit long‐term. Bulimia nervosa (BN), Binge‐Eating‐Disorder (BED), and non‐underweight EDs with regular binge eating (> 2 binge‐eating episodes per month within the last 3 months) (OSFED/UFED) form a transdiagnostic group ...
