“…The gender of the addicted parent mediates the experience of adult related health outcomes [7,12,57]. There were several other potential mediating risk factors for arthritis that were not controlled for in this analysis due to limitations in the CCHS dataset.…”

“…Children raised by parents with addictions are also at increased risk for child abuse [5,7]. Research has shown that several of these childhood risk factors, particularly childhood physical abuse [13][14][15], parental unemployment, and parental divorce [16] are associated with an elevated risk of osteoarthritis and/or adult onset arthritis.…”

“…These behaviors may in turn lead to a person being at an increased risk for chronic diseases [8]. For example, parental addiction has been associated with adult children's alcohol abuse [17,18], smoking [17,19], and other substances abuse [7,17,18]. In turn, these health behaviors, particularly cigarette smoking [20,21] and alcohol consumption [22], are associated with an elevated risk of adult onset arthritis [8].…”

“…Children of addicted parents have twice the risk of premature death in comparison to their peers who do not have addicted parents [7]. Most research has focused on the higher rates of suicide, drug and alcohol addictions, and violence as risk factors for the higher morbidity and mortality of the adolescent and adult children of alcoholic parents.…”

Aims. To examine the relationship between a history of parental addictions and the cumulative lifetime incidence of arthritis while controlling for age, sex, race, and four clusters of risk factors: (1) other adverse childhood experiences, (2) adult health behaviors (i.e., smoking, obesity, inactivity, and alcohol consumption), (3) adult socioeconomic status and (4) mental health. Materials and Methods. Secondary analysis of 13,036 Manitoba and Saskatchewan respondents of the population-based 2005 Canadian Community Health Survey. Sequential logistic regression analyses were conducted. Findings. After controlling for demographic characteristics, including age, gender, and race, respondents who reported a history of parental addictions had significantly higher odds of arthritis in comparison to individuals without (OR = 1.58; 95% CI 1.38-1.80). Adjustment for socioeconomic status, adult health behaviors, and mental health conditions had little impact on the parental addictions and arthritis relationship. The association between parental addictions and arthritis was substantially reduced when adverse childhood experiences (OR = 1.33; 95% CI 1.15-1.53) and all four groups of risk factors collectively (OR = 1.30; 95% CI = 1.12-1.51) were included in the analyses; however, the relationship remained statistically significant. Conclusions. A robust association was found between parental addictions and cumulative lifetime incidence of arthritis. This link remained even when controlling for four groups of potential risk factors.

This review aims to first enhance and update existing reviews by comprehensively synthesising the full array of psychosocial, pharmacological and legal interventions that aim to improve the psychosocial outcomes of children with substance misusing parents. Second, the review aims to use network meta‐analysis to integrate and examine the comparative impact of these interventions. Specifically, the review will address the following research questions: (1) What is the comparative impact of psychosocial, pharmacological, and legal interventions for improving the psychosocial outcomes of children with substance misusing parents? (2) Does the impact of interventions vary according to the child developmental period (e.g., infancy, early childhood, adolescence) or the type of (a) outcome measure; (b) substance misuse; (c) practitioner implementing the intervention; or (d) intervention setting? (3) Does the impact of interventions vary by the country of implementation?

Introduction Children living with parents who harmfully consume alcohol might experience more life events, in particular negative, than children living with parents who do not harmfully consume alcohol. They also primarily use less adaptive coping styles and often demonstrate lower resilience. No studies evaluated whether coping styles or psychological well‐being might influence the risk of life events occurrence in children living with parents who harmfully consume alcohol. Methods Forty‐five children living with parents who harmfully consume alcohol and 45 children living with parents who do not harmfully consume alcohol, matched for sex and age, were assessed via the Appendix Life Events of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory—Adolescent, the Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations, and the Psychological Well‐Being scales. Results Children living with parents who harmfully consume alcohol had more life events in the 6‐month period before the assessment, mostly negative and neutral, and lower levels of psychological well‐being than children living with parents who do not harmfully consume alcohol. The risk of having experienced at least one negative or neutral life event was higher in children living with parents who harmfully consume alcohol than in their peers and in those with lower psychological well‐being. The risk of having had a positive life event was not related to parents' consumption of alcohol but to avoidant coping and low self‐acceptance behaviours. Conclusions Children living with parents who harmfully consume alcohol need interventions aimed at improving psychological well‐being to protect them from life events, especially from negative ones.
