TL;DR: Retention in methadone and buprenorphine treatment is associated with substantial reductions in the risk for all cause and overdose mortality in people dependent on opioids.

TL;DR: There are differences between men and women in the use of psychoactive substances that can be explained by the unequal distribution of substance use in them according to educational level and employment status.

TL;DR: The incidence of drug injection decreases sharply with increasing follow-up length in cohort studies on drug injection initiation, and low retention rates and potential for downward selection bias are caused primarily by greater loss to follow- up among individuals at higher risk of starting injection, compared with other participants.

TL;DR: Real-world evidence confirmed that the added value of MAML2 is a composite of an imperfect confirmation test for MEC and a highly specific exclusion tool for the diagnosis of ASC, and can help move a rare molecular-genetic biomarker from an emerging tool to the clinic.

TL;DR: The aim of this paper is to describe the available methods to quantify the main health and social harms related to alcohol consumption in the population and to provide recommendations to improve research on these issues.
