Abstract
Purpose of review: Substance use is a major public health problem in adolescents and young adults (AYA) and is particularly dangerous for AYA with type 1 diabetes (T1D) due to additional health consequences related to T1D. Rates of substance use among AYA with T1D are difficult to ascertain. Currently, we aim to provide a summary of published rates of substance use, over the last 10 years, among AYA with T1D in the USA.
Recent findings: This review included a database search, abstract screening, and synthesizing of articles published in the last 10 years that reported rates of substance use among AYA with T1D. We also compared rates to national survey data from the Center for Disease Control and Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. Of 138 articles, 123 abstracts were excluded due to non-relevance or because they were conducted outside of the USA; 15 articles were evaluated, and 8 provided original data on AYA with T1D. These 8 studies were summarized and compared to nationwide survey data. Most of the published rates of substance use among AYA with T1D were similar to national survey data for alcohol, tobacco, and marijuana. Rates of illicit drug use were lower among AYA with T1D. Despite additional health consequences, alcohol, tobacco, and marijuana use is about as prevalent among AYA with T1D as in the general US population. These findings emphasize the importance of conducting more research in this area, developing effective interventions, and incorporating prevention into standard clinical practices.
期刊介绍:
The goal of this journal is to publish cutting-edge reviews on subjects pertinent to all aspects of diabetes epidemiology, pathophysiology, and management. We aim to provide incisive, insightful, and balanced contributions from leading experts in each relevant domain that will be of immediate interest to a wide readership of clinicians, basic scientists, and translational investigators.
We accomplish this aim by appointing major authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas across the discipline. Section Editors select topics to be reviewed by leading experts who emphasize recent developments and highlight important papers published over the past year on their topics, in a crisp and readable format. We also provide commentaries from well-known figures in the field, and an Editorial Board of internationally diverse members suggests topics of special interest to their country/region and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research.
