The authors also discuss utility of alcohol-focused prevention and treatment interventions in reducing simultaneous use of alcohol and marijuana.
This published review marks a milestone for ARCRpublication of its first scoping review. ARCR currently accepts narrative reviews or scoping reviews from invited authors.
