Policy changes have resulted in dramatic increases in access to cannabis for medical purposes. Veterans are disproportionately affected by conditions for which medical cannabis is often pursued, making an evidence-based perspective on risks versus benefits of high priority. The current review sought to examine the state of the evidence on the correlates and consequences of cannabis use among veterans. Using a comprehensive search strategy, 501 articles were identified and 86 studies met criteria for inclusion. The literature was predominated by cross-sectional studies (67%) of male veterans (71.4%–100% male) from the United States (93.0%). Three overarching themes emerged, comprising cannabis associations with other substance use, mental health, and physical health outcomes. The balance of the evidence associated cannabis use with negative health outcomes, with consistent positive associations with other substance use, psychiatric disorders, and self-harm/suicidality. Few studies examined the therapeutic effects of cannabis, thus limiting the potential to evaluate evidence of efficacy. Priority areas for future research are studies using designs that can examine the directionality of links between cannabis and health in veterans more conclusively, and studies directly examining therapeutic efficacy of cannabis-based therapies in veterans. Methodologically rigorous design will be essential to inform clinical recommendations and practices guidelines in an era of burgeoning access to cannabis.

退伍军人中使用大麻:获利还是失利?

政策变化导致用于医疗目的的大麻获取量急剧增加。退伍军人经常受到医疗大麻条件的影响,因此对风险和高优先级的利益提出了基于证据的观点。本次审查试图审查退伍军人使用大麻的相关性和后果的证据状态。使用全面的搜索策略,确定了501篇文章,并且有86项研究符合纳入标准。来自美国(93.0%)的男性退伍军人(71.4%–100%男性)的横断面研究(67%)主导了文献。出现了三个总体主题,其中包括大麻与其他物质使用,心理健康和身体健康结局的关联。证据表明,大麻的使用与健康的负面影响之间存在平衡,而大麻与其他物质的使用,精神病和自我伤害/自杀之间也具有持续的正相关关系。很少有研究检查大麻的治疗效果,因此限制了评估功效证据的潜力。未来研究的优先领域是使用可以更结论性地检查退伍军人中大麻与健康之间联系的方向性的设计的研究,以及直接检查退伍军人中基于大麻的疗法的治疗功效的研究。在迅速发展的大麻获取时代,严格的方法学设计对于提供临床建议和实践指南至关重要。很少有研究检查大麻的治疗效果,因此限制了评估功效证据的潜力。未来研究的优先领域是使用可以更结论性地检查退伍军人中大麻与健康之间联系的方向性的设计的研究,以及直接检查退伍军人中基于大麻的疗法的治疗功效的研究。在迅速发展的大麻获取时代,严格的方法学设计对于提供临床建议和实践指南至关重要。很少有研究检查大麻的治疗效果,因此限制了评估功效证据的潜力。未来研究的优先领域是使用可以更结论性地检查退伍军人中大麻与健康之间联系的方向性的设计的研究,以及直接检查退伍军人中基于大麻的疗法的治疗功效的研究。在迅速发展的大麻获取时代,严格的方法学设计对于提供临床建议和实践指南至关重要。并直接研究了以大麻为基础的疗法对退伍军人的治疗效果。在迅速发展的大麻获取时代,严格的方法学设计对于提供临床建议和实践指南至关重要。并直接研究了以大麻为基础的疗法对退伍军人的治疗效果。在迅速发展的大麻获取时代,严格的方法学设计对于提供临床建议和实践指南至关重要。
