Of particular note is that this volume and issue mark the ATQ’s 13th year of publication with Taylor & Francis. Over the years, we have found our partnership with the publishing house to be effective and helpful in presenting high quality research related to alcohol use disorders (AUD) and other substances use disorders (SUD). Our thanks are extended to all involved. In the next section, we provide a brief overview of the articles included in this issue. Each article contains thoughtful and beneficial information across alcohol and substance use disorder science within several themes. This issue includes several articles with insights about perceptions and decision-making as they relate to alcohol and substance use initiation, escalation and/or recovery. Each work has something for relevant for healthcare professionals, educators and researchers. In the first section of this issue, a study regarding the internalized stigma and self-esteem within individuals with alcohol and risky substance use disorder is presented. Akhan and Gezgin Yazici present research from a study with 233 participants undergoing treatment for AUD or SUD at a training hospital. They sought to determine the internalized stigma and self-esteem levels of patients and identify related influential factors, and then explored correlations alcohol and substance use disorder progression. The results indicate that selfesteem and internalized stigma can be important concepts to explore in clinical settings as both may be related to progression. Nichols and colleagues explored the association between problem drinking, depressive symptoms and suicidal ideation. Their goal was to expound on the literature and provide more precision for examining links between AUD, major depression, and suicidal ideation. These authors drew from the Interpersonal Theory of Suicide (ITOS) and utilized structural equation modeling to explore a complex phenomenon. The next articles present relevant and useful information specific to women and recovery. First, Nowakowski-Sims and Ferrante present their findings from a qualitative study centered around Integrative Body-Mind-Spirit (IBMS) practice among women in a residential recovery program. In this research article the authors detail the need for a gender-responsive approaches to the treatment process. The authors reported that IBMS may be useful as an alternative coping mechanism to alcohol and substance use. Next, Antunes de Campos and colleagues share ethnographic research detailing how women in Brazil conceive and experience their recovery from AUD. This article presents information that contributes to the understanding of gender inequalities in peer self-help group settings. Owens, Banta-Green and Newman provide a thought-provoking piece on a recovery community center model. The authors utilized a grounded theory qualitative approach to explore the perceptions of s","PeriodicalId":45949,"journal":{"name":"Alcoholism Treatment Quarterly","volume":"41 1","pages":"1 - 2"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42059111","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}

Problem drinking, depression, and suicide ideation are associated, but the mechanism(s) explaining this association is underdefined in the current research landscape. For this reason, the present study is vital in expanding the understanding of these associations. The proposed study explored the interplay between problem drinking and depressive symptoms including suicide ideation. Drawing on the Interpersonal Theory of Suicide (ITOS), two interpersonal constructs (i.e., thwarted belongingness [TB] and perceived burdensomeness [PB]) were considered as mediators. It was hypothesized that problem drinking would contribute to greater depressive symptoms and suicide ideation as well through TB and PB. Participants with a history of drinking (N = 539; 43% female; M = 39.47 years, SD = 12.49) were recruited via Amazon’s Mechanical Turk and completed an online survey that included Problem Drinking, TB and PB, Depression and Suicide Ideation. Depression and suicide ideation were measured using the PHQ, which contains a single item assessing suicide ideation. Results from structural equation modeling partially supported the hypotheses in that problem drinking is significantly associated with depression and suicide ideation through PB. However, problem drinking was not associated with TB indicating that TB does not account for the effect of problem drinking onto either depression or suicide ideation. This preliminary study extends prior findings with specific interpersonal constructs and has implications that provide groundwork for future research and clinical application for social aspects of drinking.","PeriodicalId":45949,"journal":{"name":"Alcoholism Treatment Quarterly","volume":"41 1","pages":"15 - 30"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46171934","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}

With the evolving body of medical research, a dichotomy has been formed between drunkenness and the disease we now know. Art has served a special role in the reflection of the human condition. It serves as both a third-party storyteller and an influencer of our perception of the world around us. For a modern analysis of SUD streaming technology was used to study film and the depiction of addiction through the last 70 years. This paper will explore the topic of film’s ability to reliably report on this issue. Beautiful Boy is the most modern and the central film to the analysis. Research questions include: Can film accurately portray SUD? Specifically, the human suffering associated with addiction on the individual level and the family unit. Can it help people, who might not otherwise be exposed to its effects, understand the intricacies of addiction and reform? Now that we understand SUD to be a disease, art’s role in portraying it to the public is crucial to recovery for all.","PeriodicalId":45949,"journal":{"name":"Alcoholism Treatment Quarterly","volume":"41 1","pages":"136 - 145"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46432737","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 purpose of this article is to understand how women conceive and experience their recovery in AA women’s meetings. For this, an ethnographic research was carried out with women from AA groups located in the city of São Paulo, Brazil, from March 2020 to February 2021. Data collection was carried out through participant observation in female AA meetings and semi-structured interviews with thirty women who participated in the meetings. The results showed that for women, AUD is a disease linked to gender asymmetries in Brazilian society, so that they do not feel comfortable discussing details of their intimacy in the presence of men, since in mixed meetings they were often target of sexist harassment and discrimination. Despite AA’s patriarchal culture, women help each other in a gender-only space where they find the mutual support necessary for their recovery. This research is considered to contribute to the understanding of how gender inequalities affect the treatment of women in AA and the importance of having only women’s meetings to strengthen them.","PeriodicalId":45949,"journal":{"name":"Alcoholism Treatment Quarterly","volume":"41 1","pages":"45 - 61"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44631275","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}

This provides a limited picture of metabolic state and general health, given the continuous exchange of lipid species between various lipoproteins. Major lipoprotein classes in equids include high-density lipoprotein (HDL), intermediate-density lipoprotein (IDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), and chylomicrons (CM). Unlike large breed horses, donkeys are highly susceptible to hepatic lipidosis. Currently, serum triglyceride concentrations serve as a surrogate marker of hepatic lipid exportation. Both VLDL, indicative of hepatic exportation, and its metabolic end-product, LDL, are rich in triglycerides, and contribute to this value. Diagnostic assays that distinguish VLDL from LDL could be useful in better recognizing the hepatic pathology in donkeys. The compositional differences of lipoproteins across species limit the use of commercially available assays developed for the measurement of human lipoproteins in domestic animals. In this study, we evaluated a high-resolution polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis method (<i>Lipoprint</i>^®) for separating major lipoprotein classes and sub-fractionating LDL and HDL based on particle size in a large group of donkeys, and compared the pattern to a representative set of horses. Donkeys proved an HDL-rich species, with HDL accounting for the bulk of all lipoproteins (average 78.45%, SD 6.6%, range 92.2-55%). VLDL accounted for a large portion of the total (average 21.6%, SD 6.6%, range 37.1-7.8%), with minimal amounts of LDL detected. The horses tested had higher proportions of VLDL as compared to donkeys (31.7% and 21.6%, respectively <i>p</i> = 0.00008).
