...review published in the Jan. 20 issue of the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, a leading evidence-based-medicine journal, researchers found that only one-third of 1% of chronic-pain patients without a history of substance problems became addicted to opioids during treatment. The review included 4,893 mostly middle-aged chronic-pain patients, who were treated with opioids for between six months and four years. "This suggests that people who do not have a history of drug abuse or addiction are not highly like to develop [addiction] under physician care," says Meredith Noble, lead author of the review...
...Fourth Symphony actually preceded the Third on the program, a decision that allowed the concert to end with the somewhat more invigorating finale of the latter—but also prevented the subtler charms of the less frequently performed Fourth from disappearing beneath the pyrotechnics of its younger sibling. Levine’s rendition of the Fourth danced ahead at a quicker pace than most performances, particularly in the second and third movements, but on the whole the sprightly tempo allowed a refreshing balance of line and punch where one is normally sacrificed for the other...

Harvard freshman Jillian Dempsey responded with her 10th goal of the season at 12:37 in the third period to tie the game. A delay-of-game penalty against St. Lawrence gave Griffin the ideal opening to showcase her skill and resolve as a veteran player...
...Golden Knights’ Dominique Thibault robbed the Crimson of a win with a game-tying goal at 13:35 of the third, and Harvard later failed to capitalize on two penalties in overtime. But with Griffin’s top-notch performance and the 3-3 draw, the Crimson secured a third-place finish in the final league standings and thus home-ice advantage in the first round of the ECAC Women’s Hockey Tournament...
