According to HCPlive (3/28, Grossi), research published online March 28 in JAMA Network Open “provides important insights into the prevalence and characteristics of tobacco use among adults with a history of psychosis.” After analyzing “data from 29,045 adults who participated in the PATH Study’s Wave 5 survey between December 2018-November 2019 and were 18 years or older,” researchers found “a higher prevalence of tobacco use, polytobacco use, and severity of nicotine dependence among adults with psychosis compared with those without psychosis.”
