One set of analyses examined the quality of the longitudinal retrospective self-report from narcotics addicts, including validity of recent narcotics use, reliability of various measures, stability of relationships among these measures, and pattern reliability among latent constructs. Results contribute strongly to confidence in the validity of the relationships among these data derived from addicts' self-report. The second set of analyses focused on validity of self-reported drug use among high-risk groups, including samples from sexually transmitted disease (STD) clinics, hospital emergency rooms (ERs), and jails. Results suggest that the accuracy of self-report of recent drug use varies by the sample sources, drug types, and subject characteristics. Targeting these high-risk groups may improve prevalence estimation. The chapter concludes that empirical validation of self-report is always necessary to enhance the utility of collected self-report data and provide means of controlling for potential biases.</p>","PeriodicalId":76229,"journal":{"name":"NIDA research monograph","volume":"167 ","pages":"320-43"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20188262","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}

Furthermore, several intermediates/products formed in the in vitro oxidation of 5-HT by HO. are readily autoxidized (4,5-DHT, 5,6-DHT, 5, 7, and 9) or redox cycled (T-4,5-D, 6, 8, 7,7'-D, 7-S-Glu-T-4,5-D) in reactions that would be expected to yield O2-. and/or H2O2 as byproducts. These byproducts, in the presence of trace levels of transition metal ion catalysts, would be readily converted into HO. (Walling 1975; Halliwell and Gutteridge 1984). Together these putative aberrant oxidative metabolites of 5-HT and HO.-forming reactions might contribute to the degeneration of serotonergic nerve terminals. Similarly, the methamphetamine-induced intraneuronal formation of HO. in dopaminergic terminals might be expected to generate not only 6-OHDA (and 2-OHDA and 5-OHDA, figure 3) but also 5,-S-CyS-DA and 5-S-Glu-DA, precursors of DHBT 17 and other more complex dihydrobenzothiazines (figure 4). DHBTs 17 to 19 are lethal in mouse brain, although at this time the biochemical/chemical mechanisms underlying this toxicity and specific neuronal systems affected are unknown. However, 5-S-CyS-DA and 17 to 19 are much more easily oxidized than DA, and the latter DHBTs appear to be capable of redox cycling reactions (Zhang and Dryhurst 1994). Thus, the HO.-mediated oxidation of DA in dopaminergic nerve terminals induced by methamphetamine might be expected to generate aberrant oxidative metabolites that (as a result of autoxidation and redox cycling reactions) potentiate formation of O2-. and/or H2O2, and then HO. and neuronal damage. A number of lines of evidence, discussed previously, suggest that aberrant metabolite(s) of DA (other than or in addition to 6-OHDA) might contribute to the methamphetamine-induced degeneration of not only dopaminergic terminals but also serotonergic terminals. Similarly, aberrant metabolite(s) of 5-HT (other than or in addition to 5,6-DHT) might be involved in the degeneration of serotonergic and dopaminergic terminals and a subpopulation of cell bodies in the somatosensory cortex. Experimental evidence indicates that some of the neurodegenerative effects evoked by methamphetamine are mediated by NMDA and GABA receptors. Thus, it will be of considerable interest to investigate the neurotoxicity of putative aberrant oxidative metabolites of 5-HT (figures 1 and 2) and DA (figures 4 and 5) towards serotonergic, dopaminergic, and other neuronal systems and their interactions with NMDA, GABA, and other brain receptors. A central question relates to mechanisms by which methamphetamine might evoke the intraneuronal formation of oxygen radicals that appear to play important roles in the overall neurodegenerative processes evok","PeriodicalId":76229,"journal":{"name":"NIDA research monograph","volume":"173 1","pages":"146-74"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"57800383","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}

Linkages with primary care physicians and indigenous residents who have been trained to provide basic mental health services under the supervision of mental health professionals are just two of the ways in which mental health professionals have risen to meet the challenges placed before them. A review of the literature produced few articles about rural programs addressing the issues of substance abuse, services to women, children, the elderly, those with severe mental illness or developmental disability, and the homeless, or crisis intervention programs. Much work needs to be done to provide adequate services to these special rural populations. It is hoped that the renewed interest in rural areas generated by the farm crisis will produce additional programs addressing the needs of these often underserved populations.","PeriodicalId":76229,"journal":{"name":"NIDA research monograph","volume":"168 1","pages":"418-37"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"57802784","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}
