Epidemiologic Trends in Drug Abuse - Community Epidemiology Work Group
Advance Report - June 2006 - NIH Pub. No. 06-5880A
This report provides descriptive information on the most recent significant trends, emerging problems and populations at risk.
Epidemiologic Trends in Drug Abuse - Community Epidemiology Work Group
Volume I - June 2006 - NIH Pub. No. 06-5881A
This report provides an ongoing assessment of drug abuse in major metropolitan areas of the United States with the purpose of keeping both public and private sector policymakers and researchers informed with current and accurate data.
Epidemiologic Trends in Drug Abuse - Community Epidemiology Work Group -
Volume II - June 2006 - NIH Pub. No. 06-5882A
This report provides an in-depth analysis of the epidemiologic trends and special reports for a limited audience made up primarily of drug abuse researchers who utilize this volume to identify potential areas for further research.
Mind Over Matter (8 Booklets - Spanish)
NIH Pub. Nos.: 06-3858; 06-4038; 06-3859; 06-4394; 06-4248; 06-3856; 06-3860; 06-3857
This series encourages young teens to reject drug use by helping them understand the effects of drugs on the brain. In each booklet, Sara Bellum--a budding science student--takes students on a scientific journey to learn about the brain's complex responses to specific drugs, including hallucinogens, inhalants, marijuana, methamphetamine, nicotine, opiates, steroids, and stimulants. This is the first time the series is available in the Spanish language.

Science of Addiction
NIH Pub. No. 07-5605
New advances in science demonstrate that addiction is a brain disease--a disease that is accompanied by disruption of the mechanisms responsible for generating, modulating and controlling an individual's cognitive, emotional, and social behavior.
NIDA Notes
NIDA Notes Volume 21 Issue No. 1
NIH Pub. No. 06-3478
The lead story looks at the effectiveness of low-cost incentives in a stimulant abuse treatment program. The Director's Perspective reports on the ongoing problem of steroid abuse and the many risks associated with steroids. Other research looked at ultra rapid detoxification programs; buprenorphine in adolescent opiate addiction; the brain mechanisms of memory in rats; and the potential respiratory consequences of marijuana abuse. This issue also reports on NIDA's July launch of the new criminal justice document in Chicago.
NIDA Notes Volume 21 Issue No. 2
NIH Pub. No. 06-3478
The Director's Perspective addresses addiction and co-occurring mental disorders. The NIDA at Work feature looks at NIDA's Division of Basic Neuroscience and Behavioral Research. Research findings review how combination treatment of vouchers and cognitive-behavioral therapy extended marijuana abstinence; a study linking treatment outcome and brain response to cocaine cues; nicotine's effects on the development of rat brains, cocaine craving and high effects on brain activation patterns. The Bulletin Board reports on the use of Dialectical Behavior Therapy in deaf populations, and summarizes the recent NIDA-funded supplemental issue of Alcohol and Drug Dependence.
NIDA Notes Volume 21 Issue No. 3
NIH Pub. No. 06-3478
The Director's Perspective examines genes and smoking, and NIDA's work with Perlegen Sciences. Research findings include how regional brain development contributes to adolescent risk-taking; animal studies looking at the serotonin system as a potential target for cocaine medications; endorphin derivative inhibiting reward from morphine and nicotine in rats; depot naltrexone's safety and efficacy for heroin addiction; and the use of standard treatments to help depressed smokers quit. The Bulletin Board discusses the NIDA International Program-sponsored special supplement to Drug and Alcohol Dependence, and What the Numbers Say looks at cocaine abstinence rates.
Science and Practice Perspectives
Science and Practice Perspectives Volume 3, Issue No. 2
Research Review articles include "Assessing Organizational Functioning as a Step Toward Innovation," by Drs. Dwayne D. Simpson and Donald F. Dansereau; "Imaging the Addicted Human Brain," by Dr. Joanna Fowler and NIDA Director Dr. Nora Volkow; Clinical Perspectives: One Program's Experience Incorporating Research-Based Strategies into Methamphetamine Treatment, by Jay Hansen; Quality and Performance Improvement: What's a Program To Do? by Dr. Frank McCorry. The Science and Practice in Action feature is "Attending to Emotional Cues for Drug Abuse: Bridging the Gap Between Clinic and Home Behaviors" by Drs. Michael Otto, Conall O'Cleirigh, and Mark Pollack.
International Program E-News Letter
The NIDA International Program issues an E-News Letter every other month to inform the international drug abuse research community about recent events, funding opportunities, NIDA's research training and exchange programs for international scientists, and forthcoming meetings.
- October 2006 - This issue announced the dates and deadlines for the 2007 NIDA International Forum, discussed new budget rules for grant applications from non-U.S. institutions, and reported on research conducted by DISCA scientists.
- December 2006 - The issue discussed research results from a NIDA-supported binational research team in Tanzania, reported that NIH support had been awarded to a former NIDA INVEST and DISCA scientist, and announced new Administrative Supplements for binational research co-funded by NIDA and the Dutch Addiction Program.
CTN-Related Publications
Seven editions of the CTN Bulletin Board were distributed. The Bulletin Board is an electronic report on the progress of the protocols, committees, and node activity in the CTN.
The CTN Data Sharing Web Site was established (see http://www.nida.nih.gov/CTN/ Data.html) to support the NIH data sharing policy. The data sets of four protocols are available for public use; another four data sets will be available before the end of April 2007. These data sets are in compliance with HIPAA and CDISC (Clinical Data Interchange Standards Consortium) standards in support of the interoperability required by the NIH Roadmap.
