AB  - BACKGROUND: There is a dearth of literature with regards to substance use 
      disorder (SUD) treatment outcomes and criminal arrest relationships. AIM: We 
      aimed to examine the association between criminal arrest within a month prior to 
      SUD treatment admissions among 12- to 24-year-old Americans and the role of 
      recurrent or prior SUD treatment. METHODS: The 2017 United States Substance Abuse 
      and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) Treatment Episode Data Set - 
      Admissions (TEDS-A; N = 333,322) was used for this analysis. Prevalence odds 
      ratios from the multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to determine 
      associations between recurrent or prior SUD treatment and criminal arrest one 
      month before admission, adjusting for selected independent variables. RESULTS: 
      Prior history of SUD treatment remained associated with past criminal arrest 
      (adjusted OR = 0.972; 95% CI: 0.954-0.991; P = 0.004) after adjusting for gender, 
      marital status, employment status, and source of income. Comorbid SUD-mental 
      disorder was associated with past criminal arrest (adjusted OR = 1.046; 95% CI: 
      1.010-1.083; P = 0.012) after adjusting for gender, marital status, employment 
      status, education, and source of income. CONCLUSION: Our study shows that there 
      is a protective association between history of previous substance treatment 
      re-admissions and its relationship with criminal arrest one month before 
      admission.
