Two HSS studies received awards from the American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine. One looked at the prevalence of CBD use in patients scheduled for sports medicine surgery. The other compared the need for opioid medication after robotic, computer-assisted or manual hip replacement.
Researchers from UC San Diego found that Mindfulness-Oriented Recovery Enhancement (MORE) can help rewire the brain鈥檚 response to natural healthy pleasure, leading to reduced opioid cravings. The findings suggest that MORE could be a promising tool in the fight against opioid use disorder.
Study finds that 25% of 7350 patients hospitalized between 2016 and 2021 for scooter-related injuries were using substances such as alcohol, opioids, marijuana and cocaine when injured. The findings underscore the urgent need to strengthen safety regulations, enforce helmet use, and reduce substance use among scooter riders.
Using cannabis products during pregnancy may negatively affect offspring lung development and function, according to new research.
Young adults in pain start using cannabis earlier and are more likely to mix it with alcohol, according to new research from Binghamton University, State University of New York.

More than 150 posters to be presented; counselors are available to comment on mental health topics ranging from substance use and addiction to wellness and self-care and more.
Researchers at WashU Medicine and Stanford University developed a compound that relieves pain in mice but doesn't affect the brain, thereby avoiding mind-altering side effects and abuse potential. The custom-designed molecule, derived from cannabis, may provide an alternative to opioids for treating chronic pain.
New study suggests daily users who start in their teens at higher risk of a syndrome that causes vomiting, pain and repeated trips to the hospital.
Much remains unknown about the risks and benefits of medical cannabis, and as use rates spike, research is urgently needed to understand the full health, social, and even environmental impacts of these medications.

Cannabidiol (CBD), the component in cannabis often used for therapeutic treatments, is increasingly being used during pregnancy as a means of managing symptoms such as nausea, anxiety and sleep.
CBD may hold promise as a tool to help people reduce problem drinking, according to a new study published in Alcohol: Clinical and Experimental Research. Cannabidiol, commonly known as CBD, modifies the activity of the parasympathetic nervous system and reduces physical signs of anxiety and self-reported craving for alcohol in people with alcohol use disorder.
Researchers at University of California San Diego analyzed cannabis smoking practices in San Diego County to assess whether in-home smoking was associated with cannabis detection in children.
David D茅cary-H茅tu has found that over three-quarters of Canadian websites selling cannabis illegally don鈥檛 accept payment in cryptocurrency.
Half of 18- to 25-year-olds believe that the average young adult drives or rides in a car at least once a month while the driver is under the influence of alcohol and cannabis.
Among young adults who frequently use cannabis, drinking alcohol is linked to intensified cannabis cravings in men and reduced cannabis cravings in women, a novel study suggests. The findings potentially illuminate mechanisms driving the combined use of the two substances and could inform sex-specific approaches to preventing or addressing the resulting harms. Young adults commonly use alcohol and cannabis together (i.e., co-use), and people who use both substances experience more negative consequences鈥攊ncluding worse outcomes for alcohol use disorder treatment鈥攖han those who use one or the other. Co-use may be partially driven 鈥渃ross-substance-induced鈥� craving, in which the repeated co-use of two substances prompts one to become a trigger for the other. Research on this effect involving alcohol and cannabis鈥攑reviously limited to laboratory testing and remote monitoring鈥攈as hinted at sex differences in these effects.
