There is no more tragic face of this epidemic than the wave of alcohol and drug use by adolescents. In 2008 in Yolo County, a team of community leaders from medicine, human services, law enforcement, education and local government, convened to raise awareness and understanding of the issue and to create a unified community-based response to the problem. With funding from the Sierra Health Foundation, this team of leaders planned and implemented a three day event to educate people and stimulate action. The event began with a half-day training for medical providers to impart the skills and knowledge they need to diagnose and treat adolescent patients who are involved with substances.

  • Sexual Dysfunction in Males with Alcohol Dependence Syndrome
    Original Research Article DOI: 10.18231/2455-8559.2017.0022 Sexual Dysfunction in Males with Alcohol Dependence Syndrome Sai Krishna P.1,*, Shailaja Adepu2, Jayaram Adepu3, Dattatrey M4 1,3Associate Professor, 2Assistant Professor, 4Professor, 1,4Dept. of Psychiatry, 2,3Dept. of General Surgery, 1,2,3Prathima Institute of Medical Science, Karimnagar, 4Kamineni Institute of Medical Science, Nalgonda *Corresponding Author: Email: [email protected] Abstract Introduction: Sexual dysfunction leads to distress and poor interpersonal relationships in alcohol dependent males with an active sexual life. If not addressed, it may precipitate relapse. Aims: Aim of the study is to assess the prevalence and type of sexual dysfunction in alcohol dependent males and its relation to duration and quantity of alcohol consumed. Material and Methods: One hundred male subjects admitted to a de-addiction center, attached to a tertiary care rural teaching hospital meeting the diagnosis of alcohol dependence syndrome [F10.2] were assessed for sexual dysfunction using Arizona Sexual Experience Scale (ASEX), International Index for Erectile Dysfunction questionnaire (IIEF) and Sexual dysfunction checklist (SDCL). Results: Sixty one percent had one or more sexual dysfunctions. The most common being decreased sexual desire, premature ejaculation, frequency dissatisfaction and erectile disorder. The amount of alcohol consumed and the duration of alcohol dependence appeared to be significantly associated with sexual dysfunction. Conclusion: Sexual dysfunction is common in subjects with alcohol dependence syndrome. Long term dependence and heavy drinking had a positive linear relationship with sexual dysfunction. Psychiatrists should routinely evaluate and treat the sexual dysfunction to prevent relapse and improve interpersonal relations. Keywords: Alcohol dependence syndrome, Sexual dysfunction, Male.

  • Gendered Sexual Uses of Alcohol and Associated Risks: a Qualitative Study of Nigerian University Students Emeka W
    Dumbili BMC Public Health (2016) 16:474 DOI 10.1186/s12889-016-3163-1 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Gendered sexual uses of alcohol and associated risks: a qualitative study of Nigerian University students Emeka W. Dumbili Abstract Background: Alcohol misuse among young people is a global phenomenon. In many countries, young people engage in heavy drinking and this exacerbates risky sexual behaviour. In Nigeria, alcohol held multiple roles in the traditional era but was mainly consumed by adult males for pleasure. Adult females and young people were culturally constrained from drinking in most communities. In contemporary Nigeria, young people’s drinking is increasing, and many engage in sexual intercourse under the influence of alcohol. Methods: This study draws on the traditional gender and social sexual scripts to explore the factors that motivate young people to use alcohol for sexual purposes. In-depth interviews were conducted with 19 to 23-year old male and female undergraduate students from a Nigerian university. Thematic analysis was conductedwiththeaidofNVivo10software. Results: Men drink to become confident to initiate sexual relationships, stimulate sexual urges, prolong erection, increase sexual satisfaction and become more aggressive during sexual intercourse. Women also drink to be bold in initiating sexual relationships, for sexual arousal and to increase satisfaction. Relatedly, not every brand of alcohol is used for sexual purposes. For example, while men use ‘herbal’ alcoholic beverages and a mixture of locally-produced gin and marijuana, women use champagne and other flavoured alcoholic beverages. The results also revealed that young people use alcohol or salt in a bid to prevent conception after sexual intercourse.
