Nov 17, 2019 by AMERSA

The Authors’ Own Words:  

We ask authors to describe their impressions regarding the implications of their accepted work, how their findings will change practice, and what is noteworthy about the work. 

Gender-Specific Predictors of Methadone Treatment Outcomes Among African Americans at an Urban Clinic

Jamey J. Lister, PhD; Suzanne Brown, PhD; Mark K. Greenwald, PhD; & David M. Ledgerwood , PhD

Substance Abuse Vol. 40, Iss. 2, 2019

“This study delivers the first gender-specific methadone treatment implications among African Americans or any racial minority group, intent on addressing minority health disparities. We identified gender differences and differential MMT outcome predictors between African American female and male patients. We recommend interdisciplinary stakeholders across clinical and research fields consider these findings as they develop and implement assessment and treatment protocols tailored to African American patient needs.“
