    Content: "Prescription opioid medication abuse has been declared a national crisis by experts in medicine, substance use, public health, and pain management, culminating in a declaration made by the President of the United States that opioid misuse and abuse is a national health emergency. In this comprehensive text, expert scholars analyze and address a wide range of issues in, obstacles to, and potential solutions for this emergency, which caused more than 50,000 deaths in 2016 alone. It covers a variety of topics related to prescription misuse from both clinical and academic perspectives. After an opening containing background material on the most commonly misused medications, chapters examine subgroups engaged in misuse and special medical environments where misuse issues are key. They then cover U.S. policy, perspectives outside the U.S., and theories that may explain the misuse phenomena. This book will serve as a resource for students and professionals in fields related to prescription drug abuse--including psychology, sociology, medicine, and public policy--and is accessible to individuals not trained in these fields."--Publisher's description

    Content: Smoking is the leading preventable cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States. The vast majority of adult smokers initiate smoking before the age of 18, and the cumulative risk for initiation does not decline until the middle 20's. Thus, early intervention programs could be of great benefit to public health. Here, we have tested such a program: a smoking cessation treatment named the Modified Brief Office Intervention (M-BOI). The M-BOI is a 10-session cognitivebehaviorally based intervention. Sixty-three participants were consented for treatment, and 38 received M-BOI treatment, in conjunction with randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled bupropion. Of treated participants, 60.5% reduced their baseline level of smoking by half at the end of treatment; overall, treated participants reduced their smoking by 49.8%. Using intent-to-treat analyses, 7.3% of participants achieved biochemically verified cessation, and treatment was associated with a significant decrease in smoking. Treatment did not seem to significantly reduce exhaled carbon monoxide (CO) levels but did reduce urine cotinine. Depression history and baseline level of depressive symptoms had no effect on change in smoking during treatment, but this may have been due to low power to detect differences. Exploratory analyses demonstrated that treatment was associated with an increase in smoking-related self-efficacy, and decreases in maladaptive cognitions related to unpleasant events, nicotine withdrawal symptoms, smoking urges and nicotine dependence symptoms. Finally, there were preliminary indications that treatment ameliorated depressive symptoms in individuals with a history of a depressive disorder. Participants rated treatment as helpful with their cessation efforts and the majority would recommend M-BOI treatment to others. One major limitation of this study is the lack of data on M-BOI treatment without pharmacotherapy. Taken together, this study provides preliminary evidence for the efficacy and acceptability of the M-BOI. Further evaluation is needed to more firmly establish its effects.
