Abstract:

This article discusses the changes in injecting drug use from 1998 to 2003 in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The Rapid Situation Assessment and Response methodology was used to obtain the information. Quantitative and qualitative techniques were triangulated: 140 current IDUs and 35 sex partners of injection drug users (IDUs) were surveyed; 17 in-depth interviews with the surveyed IDUs and 2 focus groups were held, as well as ethnographic observations. The way in which risk and care practices among injecting drug users changed and the influence of the HIV/ AIDS epidemic on this process are described

Abstract:

Somalia has been engulfed in civil strife, and drug dealers had a better chance of smuggling different kinds of drugs. According to a report from the Banadir Regional Administration, drug-related incidents reached their peak between 2020 – 2023, and injection drug users have also increased in Somalia; as a result, HIV/AIDS and other infectious diseases have spread to the country and caused serious alarming public health problems. In 2023, the police launched several operations against drug trafficking and its users. Various business centers were shut down and some others revoked business licen

Introduction. There is little information in Mexico about the transition to injecting drugs among drug users in cities other than Tijuana. Objective. We compare characteristics of the onset of drug use and first injection among people who inject drugs (PWID) from Ciudad Juárez and Hermosillo, two cities of Northern Mexico and identify factors associated with faster rates of transition from first drug use to the first injection. Method. 841 PWID were interviewed in 2012 in Ciudad Juárez (n = 445) and Hermosillo (n = 396). Using lifetables, we describe timing at the onset of drug use and first i

Abstract:

Cross-sectional studies indicate that diversion and injection of buprenorphine intended for oral use is an emerging health issue for Victorian injecting drug users (IDUs). Between June and September 2006 we conducted in-depth interviews with 23 IDUs from Melbourne, Australia, exploring their motivations for engaging in this behavior. Thematic analysis of the data suggests that convenience was a key motivation for buprenorphine injection in Melbourne as buprenorphine is cheap and readily available. “Needle fixation” was also a commonly cited motivation.

It draws on thematic coding and analysis of qualitative interview accounts of people who inject drugs (PWID) in public spaces ( n = 29) recruited via snowball sampling. Drug injecting took place in diverse spaces (“bunks,” uncompleted buildings, motor parks, and night life environments) that enabled PWID to conceal illicit drug use in public settings. Public injecting resulted from intersecting socio-structural factors, including housing instability, resource constraints, and m

Empirical evidence suggests that a key prerequisite for a supervised injection facility (SIF) utilization is the existence of an “open drug scene,” where users publicly inject drugs. This study seeks to determine the extent and profile of public injecting among injecting drug users (IDUs) in Montreal, Canada, where pilot SIFs are under consideration. A cross-sectional study of IDUs who injected publicly at least once in the previous month was appended to an HIV-risk surveillance study among Montreal IDUs (SurvUDI study).

Injection drug users (IDUs) (N = 606) were recruited in "drug scenes" (public places, bars) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, interviewed, and tested for HCV. Sharing of needles/syringes was more prevalent at the first injection (51.3%) than at the baseline interview (36.8%). Those who shared syringes/needles at first injection were more likely to be currently engaged in direct/indirect sharing practices. Among young injectors (< 30 years), those reporti

It is concluded that the knowledge about HIV/AIDS amongst the injecting drug users is not a problem.
