Assisted injection in outdoor venues: an observational study of risks and implications for service delivery and harm reduction programming
Harm Reduction Journal - Tập 7 - Trang 1-5 - 2010
Assisted injection and public injection have both been associated with a variety
of individual harms including an increased risk of HIV infection. As a means of
informing local IDU-driven interventions that target or seek to address assisted
injection, we examined the correlates of receiving assistance with injecting in
outdoor settings among a cohort of persons who inject drugs (IDU). Using data
...
Sexual behaviours of men who inject drugs in Northeast India
Harm Reduction Journal - Tập 12 - Trang 1-10 - 2015
Promoting safer sex behaviours among people who inject drugs is important as
drug-using populations with high HIV prevalence can contribute to transition
from a concentrated to a generalised epidemic. This study describes the sexual
behaviours of men who inject drugs in two Northeast Indian states (Manipur and
Nagaland) where HIV prevalence is high, with a focus on the HIV risks for their
regular ...
Physicians’ attitudes towards office-based delivery of methadone maintenance therapy: results from a cross-sectional survey of Nova Scotia primary-care physicians
Harm Reduction Journal - Tập 9 - Trang 1-9 - 2012
Approximately 90,000 Canadians use opioids each year, many of whom experience
health and social problems that affect the individual user, families,
communities and the health care system. For those who wish to reduce or stop
their opioid use, methadone maintenance therapy (MMT) is effective and
supporting evidence is well-documented. However, access and availability to MMT
is often inconsistent, w...
Do community-based strategies reduce HIV risk among people who inject drugs in China? A quasi-experimental study in Yunnan and Guangxi provinces
Harm Reduction Journal - Tập 11 - Trang 1-9 - 2014
HIV transmission among people who inject drugs (PWID) is high in Yunnan and
Guangxi provinces in southwest China. To address this epidemic, Population
Services International (PSI) and four cooperating agencies implemented a
comprehensive harm reduction model delivered through community-based
drop-incenters (DiC) and peer-led outreach to reduce HIV risk among PWID. We
used 2012 behavioral survey da...
Effect of Massachusetts House Bill No. 4196 on electronic cigarette use: a mixed-methods study
Harm Reduction Journal - Tập 18 - Trang 1-15 - 2021
Electronic cigarettes, or e-cigarettes, are devices that deliver
nicotine-containing aerosol and were used by 2.8% of American adults in 2017.
Many people who smoke cigarettes have used e-cigarettes for smoking cessation,
and the general consensus among health providers is that while vaping is not
harmless, it is less harmful than smoking. To try to reduce youth e-cigarette
use, the Commonwealth o...
Controlling illegal stimulants: a regulated market model

Overview of harm reduction in prisons in seven European countries
Harm Reduction Journal - Tập 13 - Trang 1-13 - 2016
While the last decade has seen a growth of support for harm reduction around the
world, the availability and accessibility of quality harm reduction services in
prison settings is uneven and continues to be inadequate compared to the
progress achieved in the broader community. This article provides a brief
overview of harm reduction in prisons in Catalonia (Spain), Greece, Ireland,
Italy, Latvia, ...
Self-reported impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic among people who use drugs: a rapid assessment study in Montreal, Canada
Harm Reduction Journal - Tập 19 - Trang 1-10 - 2022
People who use drugs (PWUD) are at high risk of experiencing indirect harms of
measures implemented to curb the spread of COVID-19, given high reliance on
services and social networks. This study aimed to document short-term changes in
behaviours and health-related indicators among PWUD in Montreal, Canada
following declaration of a provincial health emergency in Quebec. We
administered a structur...
Prevalence and characteristics of ever regular use of non-combustible nicotine for 1 year or more: a population survey in England
Harm Reduction Journal - Tập 18 - Trang 1-8 - 2021
Up-to-date monitoring of non-combustible nicotine products (e.g. e-cigarettes,
nicotine replacement therapies (NRT), heated tobacco products (HTP); NNP) is
important to assess their impact. To date, there is little evidence on the
association between ever regular use (defined here as 1 year or more) of NNP and
current smoking status. The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence,
and soc...
Preference for hotline versus mobile application/countdown-based mobile overdose response services: a qualitative study
Harm Reduction Journal - Tập 21 - Trang 1-11 - 2024
In response to the exacerbated rates of morbidity and mortality associated with
the overlapping overdose and COVID-19 epidemics, novel strategies have been
developed, implemented, operationalized and scaled to reduce the harms resulting
from this crisis. Since the emergence of mobile overdose response services
(MORS), two strategies have aimed to help reduce the mortality associated with
acute ove...
