The relationship between reincarceration and treatment of opioid use disorder with extended-release naltrexone among persons with HIV
DRUG AND ALCOHOL DEPENDENCE REPORTS(2023)
摘要
Background: In the United States, a disproportionate number of persons with HIV (PWH) and opioid use disorder (OUD) are involved in the justice system. Medications for OUD (MOUD) can reduce convictions and incarceration time in persons with OUD. Extended-release naltrexone (XR-NTX) has been shown to reduce craving of opioids, recurrence of use, and overdose and help achieve or maintain HIV viral suppression in PWH with OUD involved with the justice system.Objectives: This retrospective study aimed to describe factors associated with reincarceration and to evaluate if XR-NTX was associated with reduced reincarceration among PWH and OUD who were released to the community from incarceration.Methods: Data from participants released to the community from incarceration from a completed randomized controlled trial was analyzed using a generalized linear model to estimate odds ratios associated with reincarceration and a Kaplan-Meier survival analysis to determine time to reincarceration and non-reincarcerated individuals were compared.Results: Of the 77 participants, 41 (53.2%) were reincarcerated during the 12-month study period. The mean time to reincarceration was 190 days (SD=108.3). Compared with participants who remained in the community, reincarcerated participants were more likely to have major depressive disorder at study baseline, increased opioid cravings, longer mean lifetime incarceration, and a higher physical quality of life score. XR-NTX was not significantly associated statistically with reincarceration in this analysis.Conclusion: Reducing reincarceration is a public health priority, given the high proportion of PWH and OUD in the U.S. justice system as well as high degrees of persons returning to the community and having care interrupted due to reincarceration. This analysis determined that potentially identifying depression in recently released individuals could improve HIV outcomes, decrease recurrence of opioid use, and reduce reincarceration.
