“…10,11 Substance use disorder (SUD) or addiction is a condition that dates back to as long as the civilization existed. 12 SUD is further complicated by frequent comorbidities with other psychiatric disorders, such as AD. 13 The comorbidity between SUD and AD may contribute to the occurrence of other disorders and the development and maintenance of this comorbidity may be due to the overlap of these two disorders 14 The interactions between SUD and anxiety are multifaceted and variable.…”

Objectives: Estimate the rate of anxiety disorders (AD) and associated factors among patients with substance use disorder (SUD) in Lebanon. Methods: A cross-sectional study, conducted between April and September 2017, enrolled 57 inpatients with SUD. Results: The rate of AD in patients with SUD was 61.4%. The university level of education compared to the primary level of education (ORa = 0.221) was significantly associated with lower anxiety among patients with SUD. Being sexually abused and having a family history of depression tended to significance. Practical Implications: AD is widespread in Lebanon and high rates of anxiety in patients with SUD were found, warranting the implementation of strategic interventions and establishing national policies and legislation for mental health services to provide optimal care. K E Y W O R D S addiction, anxiety disorder, risk factors, substance use disorder 1 | INTRODUCTION Anxiety disorders (AD) are among the most commonly occurring mental disorders worldwide, estimated to have a lifetime prevalence up to 33% 1 and a global prevalence ranging from 4.8 to 10.9%. 2 In Lebanon, 11.2% of the people suffer from an anxiety disorder, which represents around 560 000 inhabitants out of a total of about 5 million. 3,4 Lebanon witnessed a series of wars, local armed combats, and terrorist attacks, 5 in addition to a series of crises including clean water penury, electrical power failure, and waste management problems that had overwhelmed the country. 5 Moreover, a high number of Syrian refugees had led to high levels of unemployment and competition for employment with locals. This is concurrent with the lack of public awareness about these Souheil Hallit and Fouad Tahan are last co-authors.

An increasingly older population is one of the major social and medical challenges we currently face. Between 2010 and 2050, it is estimated that the proportion of adults over 65 years of age will double from 8% to 16% of the global population. A major concern associated with aging is the changes in health that can lead to various diseases such as cancer and neurogenerative diseases, which are major burdens on individuals and societies. Thus, it is imperative to better understand changes in sleep and circadian rhythms that accompany aging to improve the health of an older population and target diseases associated with aging. Circadian rhythms play a role in most physiological processes and can contribute to age-related diseases. Interestingly, there is a relationship between circadian rhythms and aging. For example, many older adults have a shift in chronotype, which is an individual’s natural inclination to sleep certain times of the day. As adults age, most people tend to go to sleep earlier while also waking up earlier. Numerous studies also suggest that disrupted circadian rhythms may be indicative of developing age-related diseases, like neurodegenerative disorders and cancer. Better understanding the relationship between circadian rhythms and aging may allow us to improve current treatments or develop novel ones that target diseases commonly associated with aging.
