This study offers an understanding of resilient self-talk, emphasizing internal dialogs and conversations that enabled positive outcomes in young adults raised by caregivers who misused alcohol. An individual resilience approach guided this study. In-depth interviews combined with the draw-write-and-tell methodology were held with 15 university students. The constructivist grounded theory analysis methods were used for the visual data and data collected through interviews. The research produced four themes, namely (i) goal-oriented resilient self-talk, (ii) motivational focused resilient self-talk, (iii) resilient self-talk and substance misuse abstinence, resilient self-talk, and character molding. Thus, self-talk strategies can be adapted as psychological approaches used by young adults facing adversities to improve their well being.","PeriodicalId":45949,"journal":{"name":"Alcoholism Treatment Quarterly","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136158048","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through semi-structured interviews with 21 CHWs and peer recovery specialists working within substance use disorder treatment and/or traditional health care settings, we identified six prevalent themes: Benefits/Pleasures of the Role; Reciprocity; Challenges; Duality of Lived Experience; Relationships with Medical Professionals and Supervisors; and Defining Metrics. These themes reveal a complex narrative of system failures, organizational hierarchies, and experiential realities in which shared experiences and personal connections with clients undergird both positive and negative aspects of the role.

Mutual support fellowships continue to make important contributions. The peer-based, 12 Step meeting model has existed for nearly a century, and these meetings in general, and Cocaine Anonymous (CA) meetings in particular, are therapeutic. How specific topics are engaged in meetings is not well understood, especially topics related to emotional regulation. Research suggests that addiction recovery is quite similar to, and strongly linked with, a prolonged or pathological grief. How grief and healing matter in these meetings is an important area for research. This paper explores these interlinked processes in CA meetings to understand how they contribute to resilience. Shares on grief-related topics from more than 100 CA meetings and over seven years of data collection are analyzed. Addressing grief in these meetings contributes to improved health outcomes. Grief-related topics emerged into five (5) themes. These grief discussions contributed to the presence of four (4) dimensions of a social ecology of resilience in recovery.","PeriodicalId":45949,"journal":{"name":"Alcoholism Treatment Quarterly","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136261995","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Research on addiction in adolescents has been examined using bibliometric analysis and mapping techniques. Accordingly, a total of 5558 studies from the WoS database were analyzed in line with the criteria for inclusion. Although there were partial decreases in some years for adolescent studies about addiction, the general progression was increasing. Regarding resource categories, first were addictive behaviors, followed by drug and alcohol dependence. Although smoking is related to substance use, it differs from other types of addiction. In addition, Internet addiction, one of the behavioral addictions, are among the strong research themes. University of Pittsburgh produced most institution-based publications, and the USA was the country with most publications and most cited publications in the world. Research about adolescent addiction focuses mostly on substance abuse/use and psychiatry disciplines. Since publications in the research area are not within the limits of Lotka’s law, authors in this research area need more publication productivity for two or more publications.KEYWORDS: Adolescentaddictiondependencebibliometric analysisscience mappingweb of science Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Authors’ contributionsAll authors planned and designed the study.

Individuals consuming more than 40 g of alcohol per day can develop alcoholic fatty liver (AFL). Progression of AFL to alcoholic steatohepatitis leading to ARLD. The risk factors such as oxidative stress, inflammatory response, and genetic and epigenetic factors might explain considerable variation in ARLD pathogenesis. Diagnosis of patients with ARLD involved assessing alcohol use disorder and signs of advanced liver disease. Increasing number of patients with advanced stages of ARLD is observed due to failure in early detection and treatment. Alcohol abstinence, nutritional therapy and corticosteroids are the best treatment for all stages of ARLD. Therapies targeting IL-22/STAT3, TNF receptor superfamily, antioxidant signal, LPS, inflammasomes, hormones and microRNAs are used in treatment of ARLD as translational research. MicroRNAs are non-coding RNAs mainly involved in underlying mechanisms of development and pathogenesis of ARLD. The current review summarizes the role of aberrant regulation of microRNAs involved during oxidative stress, epigenetic modulations and inflammatory response in ARLD and also focused on the underlying mechanism of microRNAs in different stages of liver diseases such as liver fibrosis, liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.","PeriodicalId":45949,"journal":{"name":"Alcoholism Treatment Quarterly","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136108074","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The final issue for this volume highlights studies on providers and special populations in treatment and recovery. Belus and colleagues present their findings from a clinical trial with a focus on how sexual or gender minority (SGM) status may influence treatment outcomes. These researchers examined an abstinence-focused mixed inpatient-outpatient substance use treatment program within a predominantly unemployed population of African Americans who were living with HIV. The research presents findings on substance use/reuse rates. The identified rates among individuals with a sexual or gender minority (SGM) status differed in that there was an increased risk of reuse among SGM individuals. Bobak presents a brief report, via program evaluation methodology, on an educational workshop completed in a recovery home. In particular, this workshop was focused on encouraging the use of medication-assisted treatments (MATs) and NARCAN to prevent and reduce opioid overdoses. Information is presented on participant abilities to identify an opioid overdose and take steps to reverse it. This report provides an example of a community-based organization implementing a novel program, subjecting it to research and focusing on quality enhancement. Ricciutti reports on an interesting study exploring the effect of stigma among mental health and chemical dependency counselors toward individuals treated for SUD, and found a range of participants in both professions holding stigma toward this client population. This showed a need to understand the predictors of stigma and how it may impact the quality of treatment provided. Next, Thorkildsen and peers report on an online survey that used scenarios to assess recovery perceptions and positive-risk taking approaches among mental health support workers. This group of workers treat clients with co-occurring disorders of mental illness and substance use. The authors found an overemphasis on topics and techniques common to the field including aversive and paternalistic strategies. The researchers asserted that recovery-oriented practices need a more thorough and authentic implementation within mental health settings. Namgyal Bhutia reported on the prevalence of substance use disorder in an Indian city. The authors noted a considerable number of deaths associated with substance use and a high percentage of respondents identified the impact of substances on their own communities. Concepts around stigma, acknowledgment, and increasing awareness within the community are presented.
