Profile of drug users in the residential treatment centers of Tehran, Iran [PDF]

open access: yesHealth Promotion Perspectives, 2019
Background: The current study aimed at determining the pattern of drug dependence and its related factors in mid-term residential treatment centers (MTRCs). Methods: The current cross-sectional study was conducted on all drug dependent people residing in

Density of states of disordered systems with a finite correlation length [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We consider a semiclassical formulation for the density of states (DOS) of disordered systems in any dimension. We show that this formulation becomes very accurate when the correlation length of the disorder potential is large. The disorder potential does not need to be smooth and is not limited to the perturbative regime, where the disorder is small ...

Substance Use Disorders and Behavioral Addictions During the COVID-19 Pandemic and COVID-19-Related Restrictions

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2021
COVID-19 was first identified in Wuhan, China in December of 2019 and appeared in the United States 1 month later. Between the onset of the pandemic and January 13, 2021, over 92 million people have tested positive for the virus and over 1.9 million ...

Psychosocial adversities in women substance dependence: A case report [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Until recently, psychoactive substance use perceived as a male phenomenon. Although men out-rate woman in prevalence of substance use, women are at greater risk for its adverse effects.[1] Gender status influence many aspects of substance use/dependence.

Mothering, substance use disorders and intergenerational trauma transmission : an attachment-based perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background: A growing body of research underlines that interpersonal trauma in childhood leads to heightened susceptibility for substance use disorders (SUDs) in later life.

Disorder in Large-N Theories [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We consider Euclidean Conformal Field Theories perturbed by quenched disorder, namely by random fluctuations in their couplings. Such theories are relevant for second-order phase transitions in the presence of impurities or other forms of disorder. Theories with quenched disorder often flow to new fixed points of the renormalization group.

Attacks intended to seriously harm and co-occurring drug use among youth in the United States [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BACKGROUND: While it is known that substance use and violence co-occur, less is understood in terms of how this relationship might vary based on the degree of youth involvement in violence.

Leveraging current insights on IL‐10‐producing dendritic cells for developing effective immunotherapeutic approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In vivo IL‐10 produced by tissue‐resident tolDC is involved in maintaining/inducing tolerance. Depending on the agent used for ex vivo tolDC generation, cells acquire common features but prime T cells towards anergy, FOXP3+ Tregs, or Tr1 cells according to the levels of IL‐10 produced. Ex vivo‐induced tolDC were administered to patients to re‐establish/

FoxO1 signaling in B cell malignancies and its therapeutic targeting

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
FoxO1 has context‐specific tumor suppressor or oncogenic character in myeloid and B cell malignancies. This includes tumor‐promoting properties such as stemness maintenance and DNA damage tolerance in acute leukemias, or regulation of cell proliferation and survival, or migration in mature B cell malignancies.

Disordered Holographic Systems II: Marginal Relevance of Imperfection [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. D 90, 046007 (2014), 2012
We continue our study of quenched disorder in holographic systems, focusing on the effects of mild electric disorder. By studying the renormalization group evolution of the disorder distribution at subleading order in perturbations away from the clean fixed point, we show that electric disorder is marginally relevant in (2+1)-dimensional holographic ...
