  • Adolescent use of nicotine pouches in four Latin American countries: A cross-sectional survey. [Journal Article]
    Addiction. 2026 Oct 04. [Online ahead of print]Alexandrou G, Moodie C, … Thrasher JFA
  • CONCLUSIONS: Nicotine pouch use among adolescents in four Latin American countries appears to be relatively uncommon but higher than in previous youth surveys. Access to nicotine pouches appears to be largely informal, fruit and mint/menthol flavours are most common, and many adolescents appear uncertain about harm compared with cigarettes and e-cigarettes.
  • Craving and the body: Sensations of cue-elicited craving in binge drinking university students. [Journal Article]
    Addiction. 2026 Oct 02. [Online ahead of print]Billaux P, Desmedt O, … Maurage PA
  • CONCLUSIONS: Among binge drinkers, craving does not appear to be exclusively a psychological phenomenon but also encompasses various and strong bodily sensations. Bodily craving for alcohol encompasses both positive sensations resembling those felt when experiencing pleasurable acute alcohol effects (e.g. relaxation/ease in upper parts of the body) but also negative ones close to those reported in alcohol withdrawal (e.g. tremors, perspiration).
  • Age, period and cohort effects in alcohol-related liver disease mortality in the United States, 1968 to 2023. [Journal Article]
    Addiction. 2026 Sep 30. [Online ahead of print]Alejandro J, Donahoe JT, … Mair CA
  • CONCLUSIONS: Alcohol-related liver disease deaths in the United States declined from the mid-1970s until the late 1990s before reversing, with period effects accelerating during the COVID-19 pandemic and suggestive cohort effects indicating increasing mortality risk for people born since the late 1980s. Females face disproportionate risk, consistent with their heightened susceptibility to alcohol-related liver disease and the narrowing gender gap in alcohol consumption.
  • When psychedelic discourse meets local narrative: Selective uptake of psychedelic meanings surrounding mad honey in Nepal. [Journal Article]
    Addiction. 2026 Sep 29. [Online ahead of print]Sznitman SR, Tiwari SA
  • CONCLUSIONS: The analytical value of distinguishing between discourse and narrative lies in the fact that discourse may expand the availability of meanings without necessarily transforming the narrative frameworks through which psychoactive substances are understood and used. Specifically, while globally circulating digital-commercial discourse about mad honey makes psychedelic meanings available, local narratives determine whether those meanings become culturally legitimate ways of understanding and using mad honey.
  • Cannabis use and cannabis use disorder among older adults in the USA. [Journal Article]
    Addiction. 2026 Sep 28. [Online ahead of print]Han BH, Eschliman EL, … Mauro PMA
  • CONCLUSIONS: One in nine older adults in the United States who have used cannabis in the past 12 months meet criteria for cannabis use disorder. Cannabis use screening, cannabis use disorder treatment, and additional intervention to prevent worsening severity are needed to minimize cannabis-related harms among older US adults.
