According to a survey of Michigan high school students, binge drinking is strongly associated with higher rates of smoking and tobacco use. Binge drinkers were nearly twice as likely to have smoked in the past month compared to non-drinkers and non-binge drinkers. The survey also found that binge drinkers were more likely to have used smokeless tobacco or cigarillos. To reduce youth alcohol and tobacco use, the document recommends that parents talk to their children about refusing substances, schools provide prevention education programs, and retailers follow restrictions on youth access.

Result
According to a survey of 266 people in Brunei Darussalam, 54% were female and 46% male. The main social issues identified were drugs, unwanted pregnancy, smoking, and corrupted morals. Most females (35%) thought the biggest problem was drug abuse, while most males (41%) thought smoking was the largest issue. Both genders agreed that those aged 11-20 were most at risk. The government is recommended to take more action to restrict youth involvement in these problems, and community campaigns should raise awareness of the consequences. In conclusion, while drugs, pregnancy, and morals were overall issues, smoking disproportionately impacts male youth in Brunei.

Teen pregnancy fact_sheet-_final_467899_7
Teen births in Michigan have declined to the lowest level on record, with almost 9,000 live births to teens aged 15-19 in 2012. There is a strong association between alcohol use and risky sexual behaviors like unprotected sex and multiple partners, which can lead to sexually transmitted infections and unintended pregnancy. Michigan survey data shows that teen binge drinkers are much more likely to have sex at an early age, have multiple partners, have sex under the influence of alcohol or drugs, and experience forced sexual contact compared to non-drinkers. Preventing excessive alcohol use in teens may help reduce risky sexual behaviors and outcomes such as teen pregnancy.

Teen drug and alcohol abuse can lead to serious health risks such as liver damage, psychotic behavior, and harm to vital organs. Binge drinking teens are much more likely to abuse other drugs - they are 4 times more likely to abuse painkillers and 15 times more likely to abuse prescription drugs without a doctor's prescription compared to non-drinking teens. Parents, schools, and communities can work together to implement prevention programs and policies to reduce teen substance abuse through education, monitoring, and limiting availability.
Safe Sensible Social
This document summarizes key points from the UK's new alcohol strategy. It focuses on preventing underage drinking and binge drinking among youth. The strategy aims to delay regular drinking onset among 11-15 year olds, reduce harms for young drinkers, and create a culture where youth feel they can have fun without alcohol. It will provide guidance on safe drinking levels and launch a social marketing campaign to shift social norms. The government will also convene experts to review evidence on alcohol's health effects on youth development.
CMO's Guidance on Alcohol and Young People
20 million units of alcohol are consumed weekly by 11 to 17 year olds in the UK. Starting to drink at a young age is associated with higher risks of alcohol dependence and other harms as an adult. An alcohol-free childhood is the healthiest option, but parental guidance can help reduce risks if 15 to 17 year olds do drink. Frequent or binge drinking should be avoided, and daily drinking limits for adults should not be exceeded. Parents have significant influence over children's drinking, so they require advice on appropriate monitoring and rule-setting regarding alcohol use. Support services are also needed for young people and parents dealing with alcohol-related problems.
Smoking and kids
1) Each day over 3,000 kids try their first cigarette and 700 become daily smokers in the US, with over 250,000 new underage daily smokers each year. Nicotine addiction occurs faster than other drugs like alcohol or marijuana.
2) 90% of adult smokers began as teens, with two-thirds becoming regular smokers before age 19. Smoking during youth is associated with increased risk of other drug use.
3) Tobacco marketing influences youth smoking more than peer pressure. Kids are more susceptible to tobacco ads than adults, and tobacco companies spend over $24 million per day on marketing.
cdc
Nearly 1 in 5 adults in the US smoke cigarettes, and tobacco use is the leading preventable cause of death and disease. Smoking rates have declined in recent decades but progress has slowed. Additionally, 40% of nonsmokers are exposed to secondhand smoke, putting them at risk of various health issues. Reducing smoking rates requires a comprehensive approach including helping smokers quit, establishing smoke-free laws, educating the public on dangers, and preventing youth smoking.

T21 White Paper National Final
Raising the minimum legal age to purchase tobacco products from 18 to 21 will significantly reduce tobacco use among youth and young adults. Studies show that nearly all adult smokers begin smoking by age 18, so increasing the minimum age makes it harder for teenagers to access cigarettes. Data from communities that have raised the minimum age to 21 show significant decreases in smoking among high schoolers. The document outlines various studies and estimates from health organizations that predict raising the age will improve public health outcomes like fewer premature deaths and lower rates of infant mortality over time.

- Parents and police expressed concerns about youth drinking amounts, public drinking, and retailers selling to minors. The action plan aims to support sensible decisions, partnership with parents, industry cooperation, and reducing public drinking
Substance abuse
Substance abuse, especially of alcohol and drugs, is a significant and growing problem in South Africa. Drug use rates are double the world average, and drug abuse contributes to 60% of crimes. Teenage substance abuse is also high, with half of schoolchildren experimenting with drugs as early as age 12. Preventing and addressing substance abuse requires efforts at the individual, family, school, and community levels through education, building life skills, enforcing rules, providing treatment, and promoting pro-social activities to support youth.

ALCOHOL AND DRUG ABUSE REPORT
This document discusses teen alcohol and drug abuse. It begins with an abstract that defines substance abuse and notes that alcohol is the most commonly abused substance among youth. It then provides statistics on underage drinking in the US and its consequences, including over 5,000 deaths per year among those under 21 from alcohol-related causes. The document notes that drinking is widespread among adolescents according to surveys. It also discusses risk factors for teen substance abuse like family history of addiction and early initiation of use before the brain is fully developed. The rest of the document consists of sample survey questions about alcohol and cigarette use that could be given to teens to assess behaviors and perceptions.
Smoking, drinking and drug use by young people in England [2017 update]
The document summarizes trends in smoking, drinking, and drug use among young people in England. It finds that rates of alcohol and tobacco consumption are declining, while rates of e-cigarette use are rising. Drug use peaks at age 15, with cannabis being the most commonly used illicit drug. New psychoactive substances were popular before being banned, but rates of use for these and other illicit drugs are generally low. The document advocates for comprehensive education programs in schools to build resilience, promote accurate social norms, and teach life skills to reduce substance use among youth.
Gallatin County Healthy Lungs Program
This grant proposal seeks funding for a program to reduce smoking and smoking-related deaths in Gallatin County, Kentucky. According to data, smoking rates and lung cancer deaths are higher in Gallatin County than statewide averages. The proposal outlines a series of evidence-based interventions targeting adolescents and adults, including educational sessions addressing media influences, stress management, and social influences on smoking. The goal is to reduce adult smoking rates by 30% and the number of households with smokers by 50% by 2020 to ultimately lower lung cancer mortality in the county. A needs assessment provides background on the county's demographics, health indicators, and behavioral and environmental factors related to tobacco use.

Primary Care Interventions for Prevention and Cessation of Tobacco Use
in Children and Adolescents
US Preventive Services Task Force Recommendation Statement
US Preventive Services Task Force
Summary of Recommendations
The USPSTF recommends that primary care clinicians provide interventions, including education or
brief counseling, to prevent initiation of tobacco use among school-aged children and adolescents. B
The USPSTF concludes that the current evidence is insufficient to assess the balance of benefits and
harms of primary care–feasible interventions for the cessation of tobacco use among school-aged
children and adolescents.
I
See the Figure for a more detailed summary of the recommendation for clinicians. See the Practice Considerations section for more information on effective
interventions to prevent initiation of tobacco use and for suggestions for practice regarding the I statement. USPSTF indicates US Preventive Services Task Force.
IMPORTANCE Tobacco use is the leading cause of preventable death in the US. An estimated
annual 480 000 deaths are attributable to tobacco use in adults, including from secondhand
smoke. It is estimated that every day about 1600 youth aged 12 to 17 years smoke their first
cigarette and that about 5.6 million adolescents alive today will die prematurely from a
smoking-related illness. Although conventional cigarette use has gradually declined among
children in the US since the late 1990s, tobacco use via electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) is
quickly rising and is now more common among youth than cigarette smoking. e-Cigarette
products usually contain nicotine, which is addictive, raising concerns about e-cigarette use
and nicotine addiction in children. Exposure to nicotine during adolescence can harm the
developing brain, which may affect brain function and cognition, attention, and mood; thus,
minimizing nicotine exposure from any tobacco product in youth is important.
OBJECTIVE To update its 2013 recommendation, the USPSTF commissioned a review of the
evidence on the benefits and harms of primary care interventions for tobacco use prevention
and cessation in children and adolescents. The current systematic review newly included
e-cigarettes as a tobacco product.
POPULATION This recommendation applies to school-aged children and adolescents younger
than 18 years.
EVIDENCE ASSESSMENT The USPSTF concludes with moderate certainty that primary
care–feasible behavioral interventions, including education or brief counseling, to prevent
tobacco use in school-aged children and adolescents have a moderate net benefit. The
USPSTF concludes that there is insufficient evidence to determine the balance of benefits
and harms of primary care interventions for tobacco cessation among school-aged children
and adolescents who already smoke, because of a lack of adequately powered studies on
behavioral counseling interventions and a lack of studies on medications.
RECOMMENDATION The USPSTF recommends that.

Substance abuse in Palm Beach Statistic
This document summarizes substance abuse issues in Palm Beach County. It finds that while traffic deaths have decreased in recent years both locally and statewide, alcohol and drug use remains prevalent among county youth. The county and state provide funding for substance abuse services, though needs still exceed available treatment. Key recommendations include dedicating specific county funds for prevention and ensuring treatment availability meets local needs.
June 2015 broward annual trends report
This document provides a summary of drug trends in Broward County, Florida based on an annual report from June 2015. It finds that synthetic cathinones like alpha-PVP ("Flakka") have seen a dramatic rise, with over 30 deaths related to its use in Broward County. An opioid epidemic involving heroin and prescription drugs is also increasing, with rising treatment admissions and crime lab cases. Cocaine remains problematic, while marijuana use among those under 18 is high at nearly 60% of treatment clients. Emerging issues include synthetic cannabinoids and increasing vaporization of drugs.
Economic costs
The document summarizes a study estimating the economic costs of drug abuse in the United States from 1992 to 2002. Key findings include:
- The total estimated cost of drug abuse was $180.9 billion in 2002, having increased at an average annual rate of 5.34% since 1992.
- Health care costs, productivity losses, and crime-related costs were the three major cost components analyzed. Criminal justice costs, particularly those associated with incarceration, saw the most rapid cost increases.
- Limitations of the study include using trend analyses and attribution factors from previous studies, rather than fully re-estimating costs based on primary data collection. Cost estimates should be viewed as approximations rather than precise values.

More teens now use e-cigarettes than traditional tobacco cigarettes or any other tobacco product according to a national study. Specifically, 9% of 8th graders and 16% of 10th graders reported using e-cigarettes in the past 30 days compared to only 4% and 7% respectively reporting tobacco cigarette use. E-cigarette use has grown rapidly among teens in recent years and may serve as a gateway to nicotine addiction and reversal of long-term declines in youth smoking. However, many teens do not view e-cigarettes as harmful to health. Further research is still needed to fully understand the long-term health impacts of e-cigarette use.

Pharmacology of 5-hydroxytryptamine and Antagonist
5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

It includes the analysis of the running gait cycle, which consists of the stance phase (foot contact to push-off) and the swing phase (foot lift-off to next contact). Key aspects include kinematics (joint angles and movements, stride length and frequency) and kinetics (forces involved in running, including ground reaction and muscle forces). Understanding these factors helps in improving running performance, optimizing technique, and preventing injuries.

- 1. Alcohol & Tobacco Use Among Michigan Youth About 88% of adult smokers begin smoking before 18 years of age.1 Underage drinking is associated with many adverse consequences, including poor academic performance, interpersonal violence, injuries, risky sexual behavior and unplanned pregnancies. Students who report drinking alcohol and using smokeless tobacco may be at higher risk for throat and mouth cancers. Alcohol and Tobacco Use among Michigan High School Students: Students who reported binge drinking are at a higher risk of smoking: Almost 60,000 9th-12th grade students reported smoking in the past month and more than 16,000 youth reported smoking cigarettes daily. About one in two binge drinkers reported smoking in the past month and more than one in seven reported smoking every day in the past 30 days. Binge drinkers were almost two times more likely and six times more likely to start 30-day use Nondrinkers (69.5%) Non-Binge Drinkers (12.7%) Binge Drinkers (17.8%) Estimated Number % (95% CI) Estimated Number % (95% CI) Estimated Number % (95% CI) Current smoking 11,807 3.7 (2.3-5.1) 9,641 18.7 (14.6-22.8) 38,134 48.1 (42.7-53.5) Daily cigarette use 3,432 1.1 (0.4-1.8) 1,202 2.3 (0.8-3.9) 12,075 15.2 (11.9-18.5) Cigarette use before 13 years 10,129 3.3 (2.3-4.3) 5,543 10.5 (6.1-14.9) 16,338 19.7 (16.0-23.3) Current smokeless tobacco use 6,435 2.0 (1.3-2.7) 4,165 7.5 (4.2-10.9) 20,313 23.8 (19.5-28.1) Current cigarillo use 12,474 3.9 (3.0-4.7) 7,397 13.4 (8.2-18.6) 32,500 37.5 (33.7-41.3) Current smoking and smokeless tobacco use are defined as using on 1 or more of the 30 days preceding the survey. In the past 30 days, nondrinkers did not consume alcohol, non-binge drinkers consumed at least 1 drink of alcohol, but did not drink 5 or more drinks on an occasion, binge drinkers had 5 or more drinks on an occasion. Estimated number is the approximate total number of 9th-12th grade Michigan public school students engaging in this behavior. 2011 Michigan Youth Risk Behavior Survey
- 2. smoking before the age of 13 than non-binge drinkers and nondrinkers. Binge drinkers were more likely to use smokeless tobacco and cigarillos in the past month compared to non-binge drinkers and nondrinkers. Males were more likely than females to report 30-day cigarette use, daily cigarette use, smokeless tobacco use and smoking cigarillos. There were no significant differences by grade or age for self-reported current smoking, daily smoking or smokeless tobacco. Parents can: Start the dialog about tobacco and alcohol use at age 5 or 6 and continue through their high school years. Talk about ways to refuse tobacco, alcohol and other drugs. Don't use tobacco in your children's presence, don't offer it to them, and don't leave it where they can easily get it. Lock up alcohol. Do not allow or host underage drinking on your premises and property. Schools can: Provide interactive anti-smoking and anti-drinking programs that teach refusal and life skills practice. Retailers can: Learn the new Food and Drug Administration restrictions on youth access to tobacco products and tobacco marketing to youth, and closely follow them. Never sell any tobacco product to customers younger than 18 years of age or alcohol to anyone under the age of 21. Check the photo ID of any customer trying to buy tobacco or alcohol products. Michigan and Local Communities can: Reduce alcohol & tobacco advertising. Limit the commercial availability of alcohol & tobacco products. Increase alcohol & tobacco excise taxes.
