Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Prior studies, utilizing interview-based assessments, suggest that most of the genetic risk factors for drug abuse (DA) are non-specific with a minority acting specifically on risk for abuse of particular psychoactive substance classes. We seek to replicate these findings using objective national registry data. METHODS: We examined abuse of cannabis, stimulants (including cocaine) and sedatives...
