elsevier.jpgThe effects of alcohol use on smoking cessation treatment with nicotine replacement therapy: An observational study
Benjamin Wong, Scott Veldhuizen, Nadia Minian, Laurie Zawertailo, Peter Selby
Concurrent users of tobacco and alcohol are at greater risk of harm than use of either substance alone. It remains unclear how concurrent tobacco and alcohol use affects smoking cessation across levels of alcohol use and related…
“I Really Didn’t See a Lot of This in My Training”: Family Medicine Residents’ and Recent Graduates’ Experiences of Training and Readiness to Deliver Treatment for Opioid Use Disorder
Jaspreet Bassi, Elisabeth Abigail Ramdawar, Peter Selby, Kristine Stolarski, Jennifer Wyman, Kim Lazare, Nikki Bozinoff
Family physicians in Canada are often the first access point to health care for patients with opioid use disorders (OUDs). Patients receiving opioid agonist therapy from their family physician often have better treatment outcomes. This paper aims to evaluate the clinical…
Rethinking Substance Use as Social History: Charting a Way Forward
Nikki Bozinoff, Robert Kleinman, Matthew Sloan, Mary Clare Kennedy, Seonaid Nolan, Peter Selby, Csilla Kalocsai, Evan Wood
Physicians have traditionally asked about substance use within the Social History section of the consultation note. Drawing on social science theory and using the authors’ own experiences as generalists and addiction scholars, we consider the possible unintended harms associated with this approach. The inclusion of the substance use history…
elsevier.jpg Type-switching of short-acting nicotine replacement therapy products and its implications for treatment
Created by Scott Veldhuizen, Laurie Zawertailo, Peter Selby
The frequency with which people change from one medical treatment to another partly reflects satisfaction with the initial intervention. In this secondary analysis of observational data, we explore switch rates…

Virtual collaborative care for people with comorbid depression and at-risk drinking lacks strong evidence. Our aim was to assess the impact of 12 months of telephone collaborative care (tCC) versus enhanced usual care (eUC) on depression and drinking…
Identifying clinical predictors of response to repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation for smoking cessation: Secondary analysis of a multicenter RCT
Victor Tang, Laurie Zawertailo, Peter Selby, Abraham Zangen, Dhvani Mehta, Tony George, Bernard Le Foll, Kristina Gicas. Matthew Sloan, Scott Veldhuizen
Tobacco smoking remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. While evidence-based treatments exist for nicotine dependence, many patients do not respond to or cannot tolerate them. Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) is a novel, non-invasive neuromodulation treatment that stimulates parts of the brain involved in addiction [1]. Recently, the Brainsway H4 deep TMS coil was cleared by the FDA and Health Canada for the treatment for…
