    (2020) RADCLIFFE, Polly; CANFIELD, Martha; D'OLIVEIRA, Ana Flavia Pires Lucas; FINCH, Emily; SEGURA, Lidia; TORRENS, Marta; GILCHRIST, Gail
    Introduction: Although alcohol is widely used concurrently with illicit drugs, the role of alcohol in recovery from and relapse to drug use is under-researched. This study investigates drinking patterns and factors associated with harmful drinking among men receiving community treatment for heroin and/or cocaine use. Methods: Secondary analysis of 3 cross-sectional studies in England (n = 153), Brazil (n = 149) and Spain (n = 131) was conducted. Sociodemographic, alcohol consumption (AUDIT), substance use, treatment characteristics, and physical health were assessed. Logistic regression determined factors associated with harmful drinking. Results: 41% of men receiving heroin and/or cocaine treatment met criteria for harmful drinking. Of this, 28% were not receiving treatment for alcohol. Factors identified with harmful drinking among those who were not receiving treatment for alcohol use were as follows: homeless, unemployment/receiving benefits, poly drug use, history of injecting drug(s), hepatitis C seropositive, and receiving treatment for heroin use with/without treatment for cocaine use. Participants from England who met criteria for harmful drinking were more likely to report not receiving treatment for alcohol use than those from Brazil and Spain. Discussion: Findings show that harmful drinking is common among men in treatment for drug use and remains neglected by the services.

    The health-systems response to violence against women
    (2015) GARCIA-MORENO, Claudia; HEGARTY, Kelsey; D'OLIVEIRA, Ana Flavia Lucas; KOZIOL-MCLAIN, Jane; COLOMBINI, Manuela; FEDER, Gene
    Health systems have a crucial role in a multisector response to violence against women. Some countries have guidelines or protocols articulating this role and health-care workers are trained in some settings, but generally system development and implementation have been slow to progress. Substantial system and behavioural barriers exist, especially in low-income and middle-income countries. Violence against women was identified as a health priority in 2013 guidelines published by WHO and the 67th World Health Assembly resolution on strengthening the role of the health system in addressing violence, particularly against women and girls. In this Series paper, we review the evidence for clinical interventions and discuss components of a comprehensive health-system approach that helps health-care providers to identify and support women subjected to intimate partner or sexual violence. Five country case studies show the diversity of contexts and pathways for development of a health system response to violence against women. Although additional research is needed, strengthening of health systems can enable providers to address violence against women, including protocols, capacity building, effective coordination between agencies, and referral networks.

    The prevalence and factors associated with ever perpetrating intimate partner violence by men receiving substance use treatment in Brazil and England: A cross-cultural comparison
    (2017) GILCHRIST, Gail; RADCLIFFE, Polly; NOTO, Ana Regina; D'OLIVEIRA, Ana Flavia Pires Lucas
    Introduction and AimsIntimate partner violence (IPV) perpetration is common among men who use substances. Substance use is a contributing factor for IPV perpetration. This cross-sectional study determined lifetime prevalence and factors associated with ever perpetrating IPV by men receiving substance use treatment in Brazil (n=281) and England (n=223). Design and MethodsIPV, adverse childhood experiences, attitudes towards gender relations and roles, current health state, substance use, depressive symptoms and anger expression were assessed. Logistic regression determined factors associated with ever perpetrating any (emotional, physical and/or sexual) IPV. Multinomial logistic regression determined factors associated with ever perpetrating different types of IPV. Results74.6% (373/500) reported ever perpetrating IPV: 16.5% (82/498) emotional IPV only, 46.4% (231/498) physical IPV (with/without emotional IPV) and 11.6% (58/498) sexual IPV (with/without emotional and/or physical IPV). Higher anger expression, higher depressive symptoms, fighting physically with another man in the past year (Brazil only), experiencing a greater number of adverse childhood experiences and a higher hazardous drinking score (England only) predicted ever perpetrating IPV. Compared to never perpetrating any IPV, anger expression was associated with emotional and physical IPV perpetration; fighting physically with another man in the past year was associated with physical IPV perpetration and experiencing a greater number of adverse childhood experiences and a higher hazardous drinking score were associated with both physical and sexual IPV perpetration. Discussion and ConclusionsIntegrated interventions that address IPV and substance use delivered in substance use treatment could improve outcomes for perpetrators and victims.[Gilchrist G, Radcliffe P, Noto AR, d'Oliveira AFPL.
