Résumé :
This publication includes papers presented at the 56th semiannual meeting of the Community Epidemiology Work Group (CEWG) held in Arlington, Virginia, on June 8-11, 2004, under the sponsorship of the National Institutes of Health, National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). The CEWG is composed of researchers from 21 sentinel areas in the United States who have extensive knowledge and experience in community research and their local communities. They are also informed and have extensive knowledge about the drug literature, drugs of abuse, drug-abusing populations, the social and health consequences of drug abuse, drug trafficking patterns, and emerging drug problems within and across communities. As in prior semiannual CEWG meetings, the CEWG members presented reports, citing the most current data on drug abuse patterns, trends, and emerging problems in their areas. Based on issues identified at the December 2003 CEWG meeting, an expert panel reported data/information on current and emerging trends in prescription drug abuse. At this meeting, a researcher from Canada reported the most recent data from Canadas drug abuse surveillance systems. Researchers from Mexico also submitted a paper on drug abuse patterns and trends in Mexico, based on Mexicos drug abuse surveillance system. A keynote address was given by the Honorable John P. Walters, Director, White House Office of National Drug Control Policy. In addition to presentations by CEWG members, guest researchers, and members of the Panel on Prescription Drug Abuse, the meeting included presentations on NIDAs epidemiology research; emerging drugs, based on Drug Enforcement Administration data; and how to access local and State arrest data.
