FUNDAMENTOS // El primer confinamiento por la COVID-19 fue una situación muy restrictiva que pudo haber impactado sobre la prevalencia y los patrones de consumo de cannabis. El objetivo de esta revisión sistemática fue evaluar la evidencia sobre el consumo y los motivos de consumo de cannabis en diferentes países durante el primer confinamiento en adultos jóvenes y población general.
MÉTODOS // Este estudio siguió las directrices PRISMA y el protocolo de revisión se registró en PROSPERO (registro CRD42022303181). Se realizó una búsqueda en las bases de datos PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science y Embase en julio de 2023. Los criterios de inclusión fueron: estudios transversales o de cohortes; población con edad igual o mayor de 16 años; explorar el consumo durante el confinamiento; e idioma inglés o español.
RESULTADOS // Se analizaron treinta estudios, realizados en países europeos (n=17), norteamericanos (n=12) y resto del mundo (n=1). Se observó que la prevalencia global de consumo de cannabis no experimentó grandes cambios, pero los consumidores regulares tendieron a mantener (entre el 39,5% y el 96,8% de la muestra) o a incrementar el consumo (entre el 2,9% y el 51,6%). Las principales disminuciones se dieron en consumidores ocasionales. Algunos motivos para el aumento fueron aburrimiento, soledad, estrés, afrontamiento y síntomas depresivos. Además, los jóvenes fueron los mayores consumidores y ser más joven, vivir sin la familia, los problemas financieros y un bajo nivel de estudios se asociaron significativamente (p-valor menor de 0,05) con el aumento del consumo.
CONCLUSIONES // La mayor parte de consumidores regulares mantuvieron o aumentaron ligeramente su consumo, siendo los jóvenes los principales consumidores. Se encontraron motivos de consumo alarmantes como el afrontamiento y los síntomas depresivos. Es necesario que el consumo de cannabis se aborde con estrategias enfocadas en la población joven, considerando el consumo ocasional y regular, así como las motivaciones.
