📢 New Study: Cannabis use patterns in cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome (CHS) 🤢
🔹 Survey of 1,134 respondents
🔹 96.5% used cannabis at least daily; 45% used ≥6 times/day near symptom onset
🔹 Morning nausea & stomach pain were common early symptoms
⚠️ Self-reported observational survey; causality cannot be inferred
➡️ Patterns may support earlier CHS recognition

Someone finally ran the control experiment that drug discovery has been skipping for the last fifty years, and the result is going to to make your weekly med chem meetings kind of awkward :)

📢 New Study: THC and CBD affected rat brain activity differently 🧠
🔹 Preclinical multimodal neuroimaging
🔹 Adult male rats received THC, cannabidiol (CBD), THC:CBD, or vehicle
🔹 THC increased functional connectivity and cerebral blood flow; CBD decreased connectivity without changing blood flow
⚠️ Rat study; findings may not generalize to humans

Excited to share our study published today in Nature! This work by the CB Network at the University of Washington was led by Dr. David Marcus, myself and Dr. Micheal Bruchas. Considering how challenging it is to publish in such a high impact journal, I am full-on celebrating.
