This review aims to synthesize evidence on sociodemographic factors associated with alcohol consumption among university students in ASEAN countries, assess the study quality and identify research gaps. A systematic search across nine databases was conducted in May 2024, using <i>Population, Intervention, Comparator, Outcome, Study Design and Timeframe</i> to define the inclusion criteria. Studies were assessed for quality and risk of bias using the AXIS tool. Data on sociodemographic factors were extracted, and random-effects meta-analyses were performed for frequently reported factors. Heterogeneity was measured using Cochran's Q-test and I-squared statistic, and small-study bias was tested using funnel plots and Egger's test. Fifteen cross-sectional studies involving 35,527 participants met the inclusion criteria. Gender, age and parental alcohol consumption were the most commonly studied factors. Male students had three times the odds of consuming alcohol compared to female students, a result robust to sensitivity analysis. Parental alcohol use and older age were also significantly and positively associated with alcohol consumption, with minimal heterogeneity. Most studies were of high quality, although variability in study design and geographic representation limited the generalizability of the findings. Sociodemographic factors such as gender, age and parental alcohol consumption influence alcohol use among ASEAN college students. However, cross-sectional design and limited country representation highlight the need for further robust research to inform policy and interventions.</p>","PeriodicalId":48579,"journal":{"name":"Global Mental Health","volume":"12 ","pages":"e69"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12231523/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144585349","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In Lesotho, where a fifth of adults live with HIV and depression and harmful alcohol use is prevalent among this group, little is known about the local suitability of established behavioral treatment strategies. We explored preferences regarding two strategies evaluated in other settings: involving phones and trusted individuals in treatment. We thematically analyzed 28 semi-structured interviews with potential service users receiving routine HIV care in the Butha-Buthe and Mokhotlong districts. Key concerns included the feasibility of phone-based treatment in rural areas and issues of limited literacy, electricity and network coverage. Others highlighted potential benefits for younger and working individuals for phone-based treatment, preferring calls over texts. Involving trusted individuals in treatment was favored, as this could foster support and accountability. Behavioral issues related to depression and alcohol use were viewed as complex, requiring face-to-face attention from trusted professionals, such as nurses and counselors, who were seen as knowledgeable and capable of maintaining confidentiality. Peer providers were not favored due to privacy concerns. These findings emphasize the need for face-to-face, confidential and health worker-led approaches for integrating behavioral treatment into HIV care in Lesotho.</p>","PeriodicalId":48579,"journal":{"name":"Global Mental Health","volume":"12 ","pages":"e61"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12186562/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144486650","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
