“…We found that several socio-environmental factors are likely to be associated with adolescents’ unhealthy behaviors. For instance, we found that parental tobacco or drug use is a risk factor for offspring tobacco and other substance use, which is in parallel with prior studies across the world [ 33 , 65 – 67 ]. Possible explanations could be normalization of smoking in the home environment and easy access to these substances at home [ 66 , 67 ].…”

Background Tobacco, alcohol, and marijuana are the top three substances used by adolescents. The adverse health effects of these three substances are well documented in epidemiological literature, yet little is known about the substance use and associated factors among adolescents in Bangladesh. This study examines the risk factors for tobacco and other substances use among school-going adolescents in Bangladesh. Methods We analyzed data from the 2014 Bangladesh Global School-based Student Health Survey (GSHS) of adolescents aged 13–17 years. We used two outcome measures: tobacco use (TU) and other substance use (SU; alcohol and/or marijuana). We examined a set of reported psychosocial and socio-environmental adverse events as risk factors. Logistic regression analyses were used to identify associations. Results The prevalence of TU and other SU among school-going adolescents was 9.6% and 2.3%, respectively. The likelihood of TU and other SU was higher among adolescents who reported being bullied (TU: adjusted odd ratio [AOR]: 1.93; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.24–3.00; and other SU: AOR: 3.43; 95% CI: 1.46–7.99) and having sexual history (TU: AOR: 19.38; 95% CI: 12.43–30.21; and other SU: AOR: 5.34; 95% CI: 2.17–13.29). Moreover, anxiety-related sleep loss was associated with adolescents’ TU (AOR: 2.41; 95% CI: 1.02–5.82) whereas the likelihood of other SU (AOR: 3.27; 95% CI: 1.14–9.44) was higher among lonely adolescents. Experience of adverse socio-environmental factors, such as parental substance use (TU: AOR: 7.81; 95% CI: 5.08–12.01), poor monitoring (TU: AOR: 1.96; 95% CI: 1.16–3.31) and poor understanding (TU: AOR: 2.22; 95% CI: 1.36–3.65), and lack of peer support (TU: AOR: 3.13; 95% CI: 1.84–5.31; and other SU: AOR: 2.45; 95% CI: 1.02–5.91), and truancy (other SU: AOR: 4.29; 95% CI: 1.81–10.12) were also positively associated with TU and/or other SU. Additionally, higher odds of tobacco use were observed among adolescents who reported 1 (AOR: 4.36 times; 95% CI: 1.34–14.24), 2 (AOR: 8.69 95% CI: 1.67–28.23), and ≥3 (AOR: 17.46; 95% CI: 6.20–49.23) adverse psychosocial experiences than who did not report any psychosocial events. Conclusions Tobacco and other substance use among school-going adolescents are prevalent in Bangladesh. Several psychosocial and socio-environmental events are associated with TU and other SU, which should be incorporated into adolescent substance use and health promotion programs.

Background: The prevalence of illicit drug use among young people is high, with many being highly vulnerable to substance abuse. The nursing profession is not immune to the impacts of substance misuse. Knowing the current levels of consumption of illicit drugs in nursing students will allow for the introduction of preventive actions. Methods: Multi-center, descriptive, and cross-sectional study involving nursing schools from four different countries (Spain, Belgium, France, and Brazil). A total of seven centers participated. An adapted version of the Global School-based Student Health Survey (GSHS) was used as a tool, which selected only the module on illicit drugs. Standard logistic regression analysis was performed. Results: A total of 496 nursing students participated in the study. Illicit drug shows positive representation among nursing students. A significant difference was observed between the gender and the age of first drug use, illicit drug consumption, cannabis use, and cocaine use ever in life, with higher use of illicit drugs by male, although at later ages than girls. The bivariate analysis, gender, problems as result of drugs, and nationality were significantly associated with the consumption of illicit drugs, cannabis, cocaine, and ecstasy ever in life. Conclusions: High rates of illicit drug use were found among nursing students, as well as factors that can influence consumption such as nationality or gender. These results can serve as a basis for the development of educational and policy interventions within nursing schools that are based on evidence, with significant implications for nurse educators, academic administrators, and practice.

“…Our study is one of the rst to enrich this framework with evidence of the existence of this paradox from an early age (23). Similarly, we found that parental tobacco use had roughly the same effect on HED as parental alcohol use, extending thus previous results concerning the deleterious effect of parental smoking (17).…”

Background Adolescent heavy episodic drinking (HED) represents a serious health threat. We explore the relation of HED and of emergency room visit because of acute alcoholic intoxication during life (ERV) with family socioeconomic status (SES), family living arrangement (living in a non-intact family or living independently) and parental substance use. Setting: A cross-sectional nationwide exhaustive 12-day survey in March 2017 of French youth aged 17-18.5 participating in the national mandatory civic information day. Participants: 13,314 adolescents answering a pen and paper questionnaire about their own alcohol consumption and the consumption of tobacco and alcohol of their parents. Measurements: Outcomes were the number of past month heavy drinking episodes and ERV. Risk ratios (RR) were computed using modified Poisson regressions. Results Compared to the adolescents with the highest SES, those from the lowest SES were less likely to report 1-2 or 3-5 episodes of heavy drinking instead of none (RR=0.58, 95% CI=[0.50; 0.66] and 0.35 [0.27; 0.45]) but there was no difference for 6 episodes and above (RR=0.81 [0.59; 1.12]). At the extreme, ERV was more frequent among adolescents with the lowest SES (RR=1.86 [1.05; 3.30]). SES, parental substance use and family living arrangement were associated independently with HED; they were not confounded by each other and no interaction between these factors was significant. Conclusion Adolescents from disadvantaged families report fewer episodes of heavy drinking, but are more likely to report alcohol-related emergency room visit, showing the existence of a robust “alcohol harm paradox”.
