摘要:

Drugs and sexual health are recurrent concerns in the field of psychiatry.Changes in clinical and social definition have shifted present psychiatric concern to more aggressive forms of sexuality and their relationship to drug abuse. The AIDS epidemic has played a stimulating role in providing a new challenge for psychiatry in the field of sexual health and drugs. Recent research is uncovering underlying psychosociological and biological dimensions of psychopathology that are common correlates and pathways to sexual and drug abuse disorders. The investigation of early life course factors and experience is postulated as especially important in further specifying these dimensions. Future clinical practice research may be aided by applying a neurosociological paradigm that has appeared in the study of schizophrenia.

摘要:

Evidence grows that Korsakoff's psychosis and alcoholic dementia are parts of one disorder and that thiamine deficiency has a role.The neuronal basis of withdrawal hyperexcitability is being specified but evidence for kindling is still limited. Support grows for a role of endogenous opioids in the explanation of alcohol dependence. Fascinating animal models of Type II alcoholism suggest that serotonergic deficiency contributes but this has yet to lead to convincing treatments.

摘要:

Injecting drug use encompasses intravenous, intramuscular and subcutaneous routes of administration.The literature fails to make any distinction but is assumed to be referring to the intravenous route which carries the most risk. This review reflects on the trends reported in the parenteral transmission of infection, most notably HIV, hepatitis B virus and hepatitis C virus. The role of preventative strategies is also addressed.
