Abstract:
BackgroundTobacco abuse and alcohol dependence have been established as risk factors for atherosclerotic heart disease (ASHD). Their potential synergistic effect, however, have not been previously evaluated.Abstract ID: 12 Table 1Alcohol abuse/ DependenceAlcoholic abuse (n=172)Alcoholic- Smoker (n=51)Alcoholic Non-Smoker (n=121)Mean age (years)55.151.156.195% CI(52–58)(48–54.2)(54.6–57.6)Non-Alcohol abuse/DependenceNon-Alcoholic (n=7904)Non-Alcoholic Smoker (n=909)Non-alcoholic Non-smoker (n=6995)Mean age (years)63.856.371.395% CI(63.6–63.9)(55–57.7)(71–71.6)p Value<0.0010.02<0.001Objective/PurposeTo investigate the synergistic role of alcohol abuse/dependence and tobacco use in the early incidence of ACS.MethodsA retrospective chart analyses of 8076 patients diagnosed with ACS between 2000 to 2014, defined by ICD-9 codes for acute MI, alcohol abuse/dependence and tobacco use. Average age of ACS was calculated for the general population. Patients were then divided into 4 subgroups based on alcohol abuse/dependence and tobacco use status as follows: non-alcoholic non-smokers, non-alcoholic smokers, alcoholic non-smokers and alcoholic smokers.ResultsThe mean age of our 8076 ACS patients population was ∼59.5 (95% CI 59.2–59.8). Patients with history of alcohol abuse/dependence appeared to develop ACS ∼8.7 years younger than their non-alcoholic counterparts. When tobacco use is incorporated as a risk factor, those with both alcohol abuse/dependence and tobacco use seemed to develop ACS ∼5 years earlier than those with history of either alone, and ∼20 years earlier when compared to those with neither alcohol abuse/dependence nor tobacco use.(table 1 summarizes mean age of ACS incidence in our study subgroups).ConclusionsAlcohol abuse/dependence appears to be a risk factor for earlier ACS. In our population, the average age of ACS incidence in alcoholic patients was significantly earlier than non-alcoholic patients. Furthermore, alcoholic patients who also used tobacco developed ACS at an even younger age when compared to those who had history of either alcohol abuse/dependence or tobacco use alone, suggesting a possible synergistic effect of these two risk factors in developing early ACS. Healthcare intervention in this population through screening, counseling and education regarding alcohol abuse/dependence and smoking cession is warranted to reduce early ACS.

Abstract:
The article sets out to examine the correlation between the drinking problem that has beset youth of Central Kenya and the oaths that were taken by residents in the region in the wake of the struggle for socio-political and economic independence (in 1950s). It is worthwhile to recall that the Mau Mau philosophy discouraged the abuse of drugs, and especially alcohol. It was the belief that the breach of oaths spelt calamity. The youth might disassociate themselves from beliefs of their fathers and forefathers. However, since most of them are Christians, nominal or practical, they should be awed because the bible has it that, ‘’. . . I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation . . .’’ (Deuteronomy 5:9). Characteristically, the communities in Central Kenya share many aspects of culture, especially beliefs and religious practices. For example, breach of oaths was a taboo. The article seeks to establish the connection between the high degree of alcohol abuse to the violation of oaths that the Mau Mau (freedom fighters) patriots took before and during the State of Emergency (1952-1960). Certainly, anything taboo was ominous. Mau Mau agitated for independence, and more importantly, the return of land, the bond that bound together the living, the dead and the unborn. Land was seen in our indigenous society as sacred and it was not to change hands in any way. Mau Mau took oaths to the effect that whoever breached it would attract catastrophe, including death. In view of this, the article would seek to establish if the drinking problem in the Mount Kenya (central) region is a consequence of breaching Mau Mau oaths.

Abstract:
Introduction Alcohol and illicit drug use and associated problems within the adolescent population continue to be a great concern. Accidental death and injury in this age group frequently is alcohol- or drug-related. Venturesomeness and impulsiveness combined with alcohol can produce disastrous results. Alcohol use is more likely to cause an adolescent to be sexually irresponsible, which can lead to sexually transmitted diseases and pregnancy. There has been an alarming growth in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive rates recently among the adolescent population. Finally, teenagers who abuse alcohol are more likely to drop out of school, thus damaging their long-term employment prospects. Definition The American Psychiatric Association in its Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders IV (DSM IV) defines alcohol dependence, a substance use disorder, as a maladaptive pattern of alcohol use leading to clinically significant impairment or distress as manifested by three of the following seven symptoms occurring during the same 12-month period: tolerance; withdrawal; use greater than intended; inability to cease use; time-consuming activities associated with use; social, occupational, or recreational dysfunction; and continued use despite knowledge of physical or psychological problems. Abuse is defined as one or more of the following: failure to fulfill major roles at home or school, recurrent use in hazardous situations, recurrent legal problems, and use despite persistent social or interpersonal problems.

Abstract:
Selective attention towards alcohol-related cues (i.e., “attentional bias”) is thought to reflect increased incentive motivational value of alcohol and alcohol cues acquired through a history of heavy alcohol use, and as such attentional bias is considered to be a clinically relevant factor contributing to alcohol use disorders. This dissertation consists of two studies that investigated specific mechanisms through which attentional bias might serve to promote alcohol abuse. Study 1 compared magnitude of attentional bias in heavy (n = 20) and light (n = 20) drinkers following placebo and two doses of alcohol (0.45 g/kg and 0.65 g/kg). Heavy drinkers displayed significantly greater attentional bias than did moderate drinkers following placebo. However, heavy drinkers displayed a dose-dependent decrease in response to alcohol. Individual differences in attentional bias under placebo were associated with both self-reported and laboratory alcohol consumption, yet bias following alcohol administration did not predict either measure of consumption. These findings suggest that attentional bias is strongest before a drinking episode begins, and as such might be most influential in terms of initiation of alcohol consumption. Study 2 addressed theoretical accounts regarding potential reciprocal interactions between attentional bias and inhibitory control that might promote excessive alcohol consumption. Fifty drinkers performed a measure of attentional bias and a novel task that measures the degree to which alcohol-related stimuli can increase behavioral activation and reduce the ability to inhibit inappropriate responses. As hypothesized, inhibitory failures were significantly greater following alcohol images compared to neutral images. Further, heightened attentional bias was associated with greater response activation following alcohol images. These findings suggest that alcohol stimuli serve to disrupt mechanisms of behavioral control, and that heightened attentional bias is associated with greater disruption of control mechanisms following alcohol images. Taken together, these studies provide strong evidence of an association between attentional bias in sober individuals and alcohol consumption, suggesting a pronounced role of attentional bias in initiation of consumption. Further, findings show that attention to alcohol cues can serve to disrupt mechanisms of inhibitory control that might be necessary to regulate drinking behavior, suggesting a potential means through which attentional bias might promote consumption.

Abstract:
Women in distressed relationships who had sustained severe psychological abuse and either no, moderate, or severe violence from their partner were included (N = 93). Men's and women's alcohol use did not differ with level of violence. Different patterns were found in the moderate violence group regarding women's beliefs about their partner's substance problem, men's psychological abuse, and the relationship of men's and women's quantity of alcohol use and times intoxicated. Uncertainty resulting from moderate violence may strengthen the emotional impact of psychological abuse. Even when psychological abuse is exacerbated by violence, women may use active coping techniques rather than drinking to cope with abusive relationships. The findings suggest that an inordinate focus on alcohol abuse may be ineffective in combating the problem of domestic violence.

Abstract:
Alcohol is frequently co-administered with other psychotropic substances, yet little is known about patterns of alcohol use in a simultaneous polysubstance context. In the present dissertation concomitant alcohol-drug administration is examined with an emphasis on delineating patterns of alcohol use when it is co-administered with psychostimulant drugs known to interact with neural mechanisms believed to be involved in mediating alcohol's ascending limb reinforcing effects: midbrain dopamine transmission.
In two retrospective self-report studies polysubstance users reported on their simultaneous use of drugs and alcohol. Results revealed that alcohol was commonly co-administered with various abused substances, particularly with psychostimulant drugs that are known to increase dopamine neurotransmission, and there was an identifiable pattern of administration that was characterized by initial alcohol consumption preceding repeated intermingled alcohol-psychostimulant administrations which resulted in alcohol dose escalation.
In a third study, the effects of administering the psychostimulant drug nicotine on alcohol intake was directly examined using a double-blind placebo controlled self-administration procedure. Nicotine was found to significantly increase alcohol ingestion.
In a final study we examined the effect of decreasing dopamine neurotransmission on alcohol self-administration by using a dietary manipulation that depletes the nutritional precursors to dopamine. This procedure was found to decrease alcohol consumption, an effect that was especially evident in a subset of drinkers thought to be hypersensitive alcohol's ascending limb dopamine effects. Overall findings suggest that alcohol co-administration with psychostimulant drugs affects patterns of alcohol intake and that this may be the result of an interaction involving dopamine neurotransmission.

Abstract:
The co-occurrence of schizophrenia and alcohol use disorders often leads to poor treatment retention and adherence. There are very few reports of efficient approaches to treat alcohol abuse in patients with schizophrenia. The purpose of this work was to review the benefits of motivational interview (MI) for alcohol disorders in patients with schizophrenia, and if it can be use in default or if there are some adaptations for this specific population. The authors did a non-systematic review of the literature with the words “motivational interview”, “schizophrenia”, “alcohol”. A case report from 2017 shows a 42 years old man in which was valued the patient's narrative and opinions with support and understanding, that lead to a increase in motivation of abstinence. Reflective listening and summarizing were very important to help with the consciousness of the disease. A study from 2007 with 60 patients shows that they tolerate the shorter sessions (20–30 min) better than longer sessions, because of the difficult time focusing for an extended period of time. More sessions are advantageous because it takes some time for patients to learn how to respond. Other study from 2003 with 30 patients shows that subjects randomized to the MI intervention had a significant reduction in drinking days and an increase in abstinence rates when compared to subjects receiving educational treatment. A blind randomised controlled trial from 2010 with 327 patients shows that integrated motivational interviewing and cognitive behavioural therapy for people with psychosis and substance misuse does reduce the amount of substance used for at least one year after completion of therapy. In conclusion there are evidence of the use of motivational interview in patients with schizophrenia. And the improve is bigger if there is an adaptation to this specific population. More studies are still needed in this aera.

Abstract:
Alcohol abuse is a serious medical and social problem. Long-term alcohol intake has a negative effect on all organs, but the liver is most susceptible to its influence, since it is in the liver that ethanol is oxidized. The term alcoholic liver disease is used to refer to the many changes in the liver associated with alcohol. It manifests itself in three main clinical and morphological forms - alcoholic steatosis, accounting for 60-90% of cases of alcoholic liver disease, alcoholic hepatitis, observed in 10-30% of cases, and alcoholic liver cirrhosis in 8-20% of cases. Alcoholic liver disease accounts for 30% of all forms of chronic diffuse liver diseases [2].

Abstract:
Acute alcohol consumption produces positive reinforcement effects, through activation of brain reward circuit, includes limbic system structures (accumbens system and hippocampus). The comorbidity of depressive episode and alcohol abuse makes it necessary to propose new strategies for the treatment of this frequent clinical situation. We conducted a literature review of the combined treatments for major depressive disorder (MDD) with alcohol abuse. We review current literature on the use of new treatments in alcohol consumption with pattern of abuse (binge drinking). Recent studies support the potential clinical importance of NMDA receptor antagonism among the mechanisms underlying the subjective effects of ethanol in humans. The efficacy of medications for alcohol dependence remains modest, and there are no strong clinical predictors of treatment response. We analyze approved medications used today: Acamprosate (NMDA modulator), disulfiram (acetaldehyde dehydrogenase inhibitor), naltrexone (opioid antagonist), nalmefene (opioid antagonist). Promising current studies suggest the glutamatergic pathway and medications such as ketamine could have a hopeful future in the treatment of alcohol use disorder associated with affective disorders.

Abstract:
Introduction: Alcohol consumption in Brazil portrays a major economic, social, and health challenge. There is no single solution to this complex problem. However, over the years, the morbidity rate for mental and behavioral disorders due to alcohol abuse has been reducing, in absolute values, throughout Brazil. Objective: To compare morbidity rates for mental and behavioral disorders due to alcohol abuse in Brazil from 2010 to 2020, in view of the implementation of public policies aimed at reducing alcohol consumption in contrast to the pandemic resulting from the COVID-19 declared by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2020. Methodology: This was a cross-sectional observational study of aggregate data collected from the SUS Hospital Information System (SIH-SUS) by the SUS Department of Informatics (DATASUS), where the morbidity rate for mental and behavioral disorders due to alcohol abuse in Brazil from 2010 to 2020 was observed. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was performed for further adjustment as to parametric or nonparametric group comparison tests. A linear regression in the 11 years surveyed was also performed to assess the reduction of the morbidity rate in the Brazilian territory in this period. Results: In the linear regression from 2010 to 2020, across Brazil, there was evidence of a reduction in the morbidity rate for mental and behavioral disorders due to alcohol abuse, with the following Results: β=-2767.706; R2=0.964; p <0.001. Conclusion: Therefore, it can be seen that, according to the study, there was a decrease in the mortality rate for mental and behavioral disorders due to alcohol abuse. It is hypothesized that the political implementations that defined guidelines and goals for attention to this disease possibly influenced the final result of the study.

Objectives: Wernicke's encephalopathy (WE) is a potentially reversible neuropsychiatric emergency caused by thiamine deficiency, whose classical triad consists of confusion, ataxia, and oculomotor dysfunction. The diagnosis is missed in 75-80% of cases and approximately 80% of untreated patients develop Korsakoff Syndrome, whereby recognition of nutritional deficiency or any portion of the triad should prompt treatment. We present a case of a 44-year-old Ukrainian man with suspected background of chronic alcohol abuse and psychiatric history of schizoaffective disorder, who presented with acute onset of confusion, psychomotor agitation, gait ataxia and nystagmus. Anamnesis was hampered by the language barrier and absence of past medical history and patient's alcoholic habits remained unclear. After suspicion of WE it was introduced thiamine and diazepam, with significant improvement. After discontinuation of diazepam, the patient presented with several episodes of tonic-clonic seizures. Starting from this case report, we pretend to discuss the differential diagnosis of seizures in dual pathology. Materials and methods: Clinical records and Pubmed search using the keywords: Wernicke’s Encephalopathy, Seizures, Alcohol, Benzodiazepines. Results and conclusions: Seizures are a common presentation of various conditions associated with alcohol use, whose differential diagnosis is difficult, especially in patients with dubious alcohol consumption. Alcohol abuse is a major precipitant of status epilepticus as seizure threshold is raised by alcohol drinking. Seizures may also occur during alcohol withdrawal for which treatment with benzodiazepines is recommended, however carefully, since both abrupt cessation and high-dose use are critical for the appearance of seizures. Although very rare, WE may also present with seizures, whereby overdiagnosis and overtreatment are preferred to prevent persistent neurocognitive impairments. At discharge the diagnostic discussion prevailed and the patient was medicated for seizures with clinical stabilization. The complexity of psychiatric diagnoses in dual pathology requires a longitudinal assessment for a better understanding of clinical conditions as illustrated here.
