Maintenance check-ups following treatment for cannabis dependence
Arranging aftercare check-ups to see how cannabis-dependent patients were doing and whether they needed to return to treatment helped sustain cannabis use reductions – but why did this advantage emerge even before the first check-up?

Enhancing motivation for change in problem drinking: a controlled comparison of two therapist styles
Seminal study that validated motivational interviewing’s empathic, client-centred style. It suggested that by not provoking resistance, the non-confrontational style mandated by motivational interviewing reduced drinking compared to the then more typical blunt and challenging approach.

Effects of a 2009 Illinois alcohol tax increase on fatal motor vehicle crashes
Though price rises would have been modest, still the increase in alcohol taxes in Illinois in 2009 significantly reduced fatal alcohol-related motor vehicle crashes by at least 15% over the following 28 months.

Disinfection of syringes contaminated with hepatitis C virus by rinsing with household products
When fresh syringes and needles are unavailable, in laboratory tests rinsing with household bleach proved the most effective of the readily available ways to decontaminate equipment contaminated with the hepatitis C virus. Bleach also works with HIV. Multiple rinses with other cleaning products can also be effective.

Computer-delivered screening and brief intervention for alcohol use in pregnancy: a pilot randomized trial
A computer-delivered brief intervention plus booster mailings increased the alcohol abstinence rate and improved pregnancy outcomes among risky drinking pregnant women recruited at a US antenatal clinic, though in this small pilot trial the results were not statistically significant.

Effects of 21st birthday brief interventions on college student celebratory drinking: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Randomised trials of brief interventions sent by email or letter to moderate 21st birthday drinking by US college students collectively failed to show consequent reductions in amounts drunk at these events, though they may have modestly reduced risks by lowering peak blood alcohol levels.

Effects of a combined parent-student alcohol prevention program on intermediate factors and adolescents’ drinking behavior: a sequential mediation model
First get the parents to set and communicate strict limits on their children’s drinking was the implication of this analysis of how in the Netherlands a combined adolescent education and parenting programme exerted unusually strong impacts on later drinking.
Amalgamation of results from relevant studies finds that in high-income nations brief alcohol advice to emergency or primary care patients remains effective whether trials take place in European or non-European drinking cultures and health service contexts. Impacts were however small and may not be duplicated in routine practice.

Tackling risky alcohol consumption in sport: cluster randomised controlled trial of an alcohol management intervention with community football clubs
Playing team sports is associated with heavy drinking, but through an alcohol management code voluntarily entered in to and policed by sports clubs themselves, this unique randomised trial from Australia claims to have found a way to turn the tide without having to strengthen formal enforcement.
REVIEW 2015 HTM file
Electronic interventions for alcohol misuse and alcohol use disorders: a systematic review
Computerisation promises to spread the consumption-moderating benefits of alcohol screening and brief advice or treatment across the population, overcoming resource and access limitations to in-person interventions, but small and transient effects may not be enough to mitigate the health and social consequences of drinking.
