“…The limited focus on longitudinal patterns of HED among Black and Hispanic populations is particularly salient given that racially minoritized individuals experience greater ill effects of substance use. Although rates of alcohol use tend to be higher among White adolescents compared to Black and Hispanic youth (Miech et al, 2020;Pamplin et al, 2020), racially minoritized individuals have greater risk of HED in adulthood (Pamplin et al, 2020) and of experiencing negative consequences if they drink (Witbrodt et al, 2014;Zapolski et al, 2014). Black and Hispanic adults experience disproportionately high rates of alcohol-related problems in adulthood in the United States compared to White adults, including more alcohol-related physical health conditions and less access to and utilization of treatment for alcohol use disorders (e.g., Chartier et al, 2014;Hadland & Baer, 2014;Mulia et al, 2017;Zapolski et al, 2014;Zemore et al, 2018).…”

Heavy episodic drinking (HED) is a major public health concern, and youth who engage in HED are at increased risk for alcohol-related problems that continue into adulthood. Importantly, there is heterogeneity in the onset and course of adolescent HED, as youth exhibit different trajectories of initiation and progression into heavy drinking. Much of what is known about the etiology of adolescent HED and alcohol-related problems that persist into adulthood comes from studies of predominantly White, middle-class youth. Because alcohol use and related problems vary by race/ethnicity and socioeconomic status, it is unclear whether previous findings are relevant for understanding developmental antecedents and distal consequences of adolescent HED for minoritized individuals. In the current study, we utilize a developmental psychopathology perspective to fill this gap in the literature. Using a racially and economically diverse cohort followed from adolescence well into adulthood, we apply group-based trajectory modeling (GBTM) to identify patterns of involvement in HED from age 14 to 17 years. We then investigate developmental antecedents of GBTM class membership, and alcohol-related distal outcomes in adulthood (∼ age 31 years) associated with GBTM class membership. Results highlight the importance of adolescent alcohol use in predicting future alcohol use in adulthood.

“…Naučni dokazi potvrđuju štetni uticaj pušenja duhana na zdravlje i kvalitet života, kao i činjenicu da nema sigurne razine izloženosti duhanskom dimu. Sinergički uticaj alkohola i duhanskog dima, pripisuje se pojačanoj apsorpciji karcinogena kroz hronično upaljenu hiperemičnu sluznicu, kao i većoj topivosti karcinogena u alkoholu u poređenju sa pljuvačkom [9,10]. Da pušenje duhana prestavlja veliki problem i u mlađoj populaciji, primjer je istraživanje provedeno u školskoj 2011/12 godini u Hrvatskoj u Bjelovarsko-bilogorskoj županiji gdje od 1.078 učenika i srednjškolaca, čak 25,1% redovno puši [11].…”

SAŽETAK Uvod Pušenje je kao vrsta ovisnosti u današnjem zdravstvenom sistemu važan problem. Radi povećanja nivoa svijesti o štetnom učinku pušenja cigareta, potrebno je provoditi kontinuiranu edukaciju. Treba pružiti sve vidove podrške pušačima, kako bi se odviknuli od konzumiranja cigareta. Cilj rada je bio utvrditi koliko zabrane i restrikcije u pušenju, utiču na to da studenti u Austriji (Beč), puše manje ili više od studenata u Sarajevu, kao i utvrditi stavove studenata u vezi konzumiranja duhana. Metod rada U periodu od 01.01. do 31.05.2017., sprovedena je anketa o štetnosti pušenja duhana i stavova o tome. Anketirano je 100 studenata, i to 50 iz Sarajeva i 50 iz Beča, približno jednake zastupljenosti po spolu (iz Beča 26 studenata muškog i 24 ženskog pola, iz Sarajeva po 25 studenata različitog pola). Specijalno dizajniran upitnik sadržao je 20 pitanja. Rezultati istraživanja su obrađeni putem SPSS-a, programa za statističku obradu podataka. Rezultati Rezultati pokazuju da duhan koristi više (63,8%) studenata iz Sarajeva nego onih iz Beča (33,6%). U anketiranoj grupi, većina koristi nargilu i to takođe više studenata u Sarajevu (55.4%) nego u Beču (44.6%). Studenti uglavnom puše jednu do dvije kutije dnevno, i smatraju da mogu prestati sa pušenjem kad to požele. Opasnost po zdravlje ih ne sprečava da puše cigarete i nargilu. Zabrane i restrikcije utiču na pušenje duhana kod studentske populacije u Beču, ali ne i u Sarajevu. Motivisanost za prekid pušenja je izuzetno mala. Studenti iz Sarajeva smatraju da druženjem sa nepušačima, ili bavljenjem sportom mogu prekinuti sa pušenjem. Studenti iz Beča su mišljenja da svjesnost štetnosti pušenja po zdravlje, može doprineti prestanku pušenja. Studenti su svjesni štetnosti pušenja duhana, a nargilu ne smatraju opasnijom od pušenja cigareta. Zaključak Pušenje duhana u mladih predstavlja sve zastupljeniji javno-zdravstveni problem, stoga je važno pojačati zakonske zabrane i restricije, kao mere prevencije. Buduće aktivnosti u rešavanju ovog globalnog problema, su edukacije mladih o štetnostima pušenja.

“…Three-quarters of the total medical cost of alcohol misuse is thought to be related to binge drinking [ 9 ]. Better understanding of this pattern of excessive use may be particularly important in examining the impact of EAC for Black Americans, as EAC may be more stress-responsive among Black Americans, characterized by greater binge drinking but lower regular alcohol use [ 10 , 11 , 12 ]. Nonetheless, EAC among Black Americans has been associated with increased risk for adverse diseases of aging, such as CVD [ 13 , 14 ].…”

Excessive alcohol consumption (EAC) has a generally accepted effect on morbidity and mortality, outcomes thought to be reflected in measures of epigenetic aging (EA). As the association of self-reported EAC with EA has not been consistent with these expectations, underscoring the need for readily employable non-self-report tools for accurately assessing and monitoring the contribution of EAC to accelerated EA, newly developed alcohol consumption DNA methylation indices, such as the Alcohol T Score (ATS) and Methyl DetectR (MDR), may be helpful. To test that hypothesis, we used these new indices along with the carbohydrate deficient transferrin (CDT), concurrent as well as past self-reports of EAC, and well-established measures of cigarette smoking to examine the relationship of EAC to both accelerated EA and immune cell counts in a cohort of 437 young Black American adults. We found that MDR, CDT, and ATS were intercorrelated, even after controlling for gender and cotinine effects. Correlations between EA and self-reported EAC were low or non-significant, replicating prior research, whereas correlations with non-self-report indices were significant and more substantial. Comparing non-self-report indices showed that the ATS predicted more than four times as much variance in EA, CDT4 cells and B-cells as for both the MDR and CDT, and better predicted indices of accelerated EA. We conclude that each of the non-self-report indices have differing predictive capacities with respect to key alcohol-related health outcomes, and that the ATS may be particularly useful for clinicians seeking to understand and prevent accelerated EA. The results also underscore the likelihood of substantial underestimates of problematic use when self-report is used and a reduction in correlations with EA and variance in cell-types.
