- W4386802502 abstract "Military veterans are at increased risk of substance use disorders. Limited research is available about veterans' cannabis use (CU) during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. This study estimated the prevalence of past 30-day CU, investigated individual-level correlates of past 30-day CU, and evaluated the reasons (medical, recreational, or both) of past 30-day CU among U.S. Veterans during the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic.We used population-based, cross-sectional data from the 2021 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System Survey Marijuana Use model. The sample included nationally representative military veterans aged 18+ years (n = 11,167). The outcome was past 30-day CU. Individual-level demographic, socioeconomic, behavioral, and clinical correlates were examined. Analyses were weighted to account for the survey's complex design with results generalizable to nearly 2.9 million veterans. We conducted weighted descriptive statistics, prevalence estimates, and multivariable logistic regression analyses.Out of 2.9 million veterans, 11.1% self-reported as non-Hispanic Black, 3.7% Hispanic, and 79.1% non-Hispanic White; 88.5% were men, and 72.8% were aged 50+ years. About 14.6% were current tobacco smokers, 4.7% were current e-cigarette users, 12.5% were binge alcohol drinkers, and 43.4% had three or more comorbid conditions. Overall, 8.5% reported CU in the past 30 days, of which 30.4% used it for medical reasons and 25.8% used it for nonmedical reasons. The prevalence of past 30-day CU decreased with age, education, and income level. Compared to their counterparts, the odds of past 30-day CU were greater among men, those living in urban areas, those with frequent mental distress, infrequent physical distress, and those who had at least one comorbid condition. Non-Hispanic Black veterans had 89% increased odds of past 30-day CU (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] =1.89, 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.19-3.0) compared with non-Hispanic White veterans. Current tobacco smokers had 3.54 (95% CI, 2.40-5.24) and former smokers had 1.78 (95% CI, 1.28-2.47) times higher odds of reporting past 30-day CU than never smokers. Current e-cigarette use (AOR = 3.37, 95% CI, 2.20-5.16) and binge drinking (AOR = 3.18, 95% CI, 2.29-4.41) were also statistically significantly associated with increased odds of past 30-day CU compared to no e-cigarette use and no binge drinking.CU is prevalent among veterans, and certain subgroups are at higher risk of CU. Thus, identifying high-risk subgroups of veterans and adequately educating them about CU's benefits, risks, and safety is crucial." @default.
