Newest firstBackground The cognitive effects of cannabis use in older adults remain unclear, despite increasing use for medical and recreational purposes in this age group. Objective To investigate associations between cannabis use, cognitive performance and dementia risk in older individuals, using large population cohorts and Mendelian randomisation (MR) to explore potential causal relationships. Methods Observational analy…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background Reasons for first using cannabis (RFUC) may influence later use patterns and mental health outcomes. However, limited research has explored self-medication versus social RFUCs in depth, and their associations with cannabis use patterns and psychopathology in the general population. Objectives We examined RFUCs and their associations with (1) reasons for continuing cannabis use, (2) weekly THC (delta-9-t…

Here, we expanded this assessment to include eCBs alongside AEA congeners, comparing ph…
