There are less data regarding illicit drug and alcohol use problems of homeless-experienced persons engaged in primary care. They may have less severe use and require different care responses from primary care teams.\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Methods:<\/jats:italic>\n                    The authors surveyed currently and formerly homeless, i.e., homeless-experienced, persons engaged in primary care at five federally funded programs in the United States, administering the World Health Organization (WHO) Alcohol, Smoking and Substance Involvement Screening Test (ASSIST). The ASSIST definitions of lower, moderate, and high risk were used to assess a spectrum of lifetime and recent substance use, from any use to likely dependence, and to identify sociodemographic and health status characteristics associated with severity of use.\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Results:<\/jats:italic>\n                    Almost one half of the sample (\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">N<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 601) had recently (within the past three months) used alcohol, and one third had recently used an illicit drug. The most commonly used illicit drugs in the past three months were cannabis (19%), cocaine (16%), and opioids (7.5%). Over one half (59%) of respondents had ASSIST-defined moderate- or high-risk substance use. A significant proportion (31%) of those identified as at moderate risk had no recent substance use, but did report past problematic use. Ten percent of the lower-risk group had past problematic use of alcohol. Severity of use was associated with worse health status, but not with housing status or type of homelessness experienced.\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Conclusions:<\/jats:italic>\n                    Less severe (moderate-risk) use and past problematic use, potentially indicative of remitted substance use disorders, were more common than high-risk use in this primary care, homeless-experienced sample. These findings highlight the urgency of identifying effective ways to reduce risky substance use and prevent relapse in homeless-experienced persons.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1080\/08897077.2016.1145616","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,2,25]],"date-time":"2016-02-25T11:27:22Z","timestamp":1456399642000},"page":"534-541","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":42,"title":["Substance use among Persons with Homeless Experience in Primary Care"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"37","author":[{"given":"Erin J.","family":"Stringfellow","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"George Warren Brown School of Social Work, Washington University in St. Louis, St. Louis, Missouri, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Theresa W.","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical Addiction Research and Education (CARE) Unit, Section of General Internal Medicine, Department of Medicine, Boston Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Adam J.","family":"Gordon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of General Internal Medicine, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"David E.","family":"Pollio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Social Work, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, Alabama, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Richard A.","family":"Grucza","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychiatry, Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, St. Louis, Missouri, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Erika L.","family":"Austin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Birmingham VA Medical Center, Birmingham, Alabama, USA"},{"name":"Department of Biostatistics, University of Alabama at Birmingham School of Public Health, Birmingham, Alabama, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"N.
