Century City Psychiatry, a physician-owned outpatient psychiatry practice in Los Angeles, offers specialized, individualized outpatient treatment for adults who want to stop using kratom, kratom extracts, or concentrated 7-hydroxymitragynine (7-OH) products. Developed under the clinical leadership of founder and board-certified psychiatrist Dr. Mike Mah, the program pairs medical support with care for the anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties, and other conditions that often accompany kratom use.

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Century City Psychiatry, a physician-owned outpatient psychiatry practice in Los Angeles, is responding to a growing public-health concern with specialized outpatient care for kratom and 7-OH dependence. The program, described on the practice's Kratom and 7-OH Dependence page, is designed for adults who use traditional leaf kratom, kratom extracts, or concentrated 7-OH tablets, shots, and extracts and are ready to stop.

Kratom, the leaf of the Southeast Asian tree Mitragyna speciosa, has been sold in the United States for years as a powder, capsule, or tea. More recently, a different category of product containing concentrated 7-OH has appeared in gas stations, smoke shops, and online stores, often marketed as a natural wellness supplement and frequently without clear labeling of its 7-OH content. Although 7-OH occurs only in trace amounts in the natural leaf, it acts on the same brain receptors as prescription opioids, and people who use concentrated products regularly can develop physical dependence and significant withdrawal symptoms. In July 2026, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration announced its intent to temporarily place 7-OH in Schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act, citing the proliferation of concentrated commercial products. The regulatory landscape around these products continues to evolve.

Many people who develop kratom or 7-OH dependence find themselves caught in a gap in care. Addiction-medicine clinics can feel intimidating, residential programs are impractical for working adults, and many general psychiatric practices do not treat substance use disorders. Patients are often surprised to learn what they were taking, and shame about being unable to stop can keep them from asking for help. Century City Psychiatry's program is built to offer a confidential, outpatient alternative that fits into the lives of people with careers and family responsibilities.

The program was developed under the clinical leadership of Dr. Mike Mah, founder and clinical director of Century City Psychiatry. Dr. Mah is board-certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology, earned his medical degree from UC Irvine, and completed his psychiatry residency at UCLA and the West Los Angeles VA. He designs the practice's treatment protocols and supervises a team of psychiatric nurse practitioners and prescribing clinicians who provide day-to-day patient care.

Each treatment plan is individualized around what a patient is using, how much, and the goals the patient brings to the first visit. Care begins with a comprehensive evaluation of kratom or 7-OH use alongside a full medical and psychiatric history. For patients with moderate to severe dependence, particularly with 7-OH, clinicians may discuss medication support, including buprenorphine, an FDA-approved medication for opioid use disorder, introduced gradually through a micro-induction approach rather than requiring a patient to be in full withdrawal first. For patients using smaller amounts of leaf kratom, a structured taper supported by non-addictive medications may be appropriate. Because severe dependence cannot always be managed safely in an outpatient setting, some patients may need a higher level of care, such as medically supervised detox or residential treatment, and the practice helps coordinate those referrals when needed. Treatment decisions are always made together with a clinician.

Because many patients began using kratom to manage anxiety, depression, ADHD, chronic pain, or poor sleep, treatment of these underlying conditions is a central part of care. The practice coordinates with Los Angeles therapists who specialize in substance use, and most patients continue follow-up care for several months to a year as stability builds. Treatment records are protected under HIPAA and additional federal rules specific to substance use disorder care. As an insurance-based group practice, Century City Psychiatry accepts many major commercial insurance plans, with specific coverage confirmed at intake.

"Most people who develop kratom dependence are not who you picture when you hear the word 'addiction,'" said Dr. Mah. "They are working adults who started using to manage anxiety, pain, or sleep, and many had no idea how strong some of these products had become. Treating those underlying conditions is easy to miss, and it is central to how we built this program. With the right medical support and a thoughtful, gradual start, withdrawal does not have to be something people white-knuckle alone. Reaching out is often the hardest step, and we want patients and their families to know that individualized, confidential care is available."

Information about kratom and 7-OH treatment is educational and is not medical advice. Anyone experiencing a medical emergency should call 911, and anyone in crisis can call or text 988 to reach the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline.

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Oct. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Battery recycling and critical mineral recovery play an essential role in strengthening domestic battery supply chains. As North America's most experienced battery recycling company, Cirba Solutions is advancing the recovery of critical minerals from end-of-life batteries and will contribute to key industry discussions at The Battery Show North America, taking place Oct. 12 – 15 in Detroit.

"The battery industry continues to evolve rapidly, both domestically and globally, and battery recycling plays a vital role in strengthening the value chain by increasing the supply of recovered critical minerals and creating new opportunities to meet growing demand for these essential materials," said Kody Krady, Director of Cirba Solutions' Battery Material Sales and Business. "Events like The Battery Show are essential to bringing together industry leaders, exchanging insights on emerging technologies and market trends and identifying opportunities for collaboration.

MIDDLETOWN, Del., Oct. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The global Smart Connected Tires Market was valued at USD 18.501 billion in 2025 and is projected to expand from USD 20.501 billion in 2026 to USD 54.211 billion by 2035, registering a compound annual growth rate of 11.41% during the forecast period, according to the latest market intelligence study published by Radial Insights.

Tires are becoming data-producing assets as fleets and automakers integrate pressure, temperature, identification and tread information into vehicle-management systems. The market is moving beyond conventional TPMS toward predictive analytics that can estimate tire condition, reduce roadside failures, support energy efficiency and feed vehicle-control systems. Commercial fleets provide the clearest near-term business case, while premium passenger vehicles and software-defined platforms create a second high-value growth channel.

The new "Smart Connected Tires Market Size, CAGR & Forecast, 2025-2035" study spans 231 pages and evaluates demand by end user, technology, application, connectivity, vehicle type and data platform. It covers embedded RFID, pressure and temperature sensors, tread-wear sensing, Bluetooth and cellular connectivity, OEM proprietary platforms, third-party fleet analytics and predictive-maintenance applications.

Fleet Economics Make Predictive Tire Monitoring a Core Use Case

Commercial fleets are adopting connected-tire systems because tire condition directly affects roadside downtime, fuel or energy use and replacement timing. Real-time pressure and temperature data help maintenance teams identify problems before they become service events, while centralized analytics can reduce the need for manual inspection across large vehicle populations.

Radial Insights cites Michelin Connected Fleet pilots in which Smart Predictive Tire reduced emergency roadside events by 80% and fuel consumption by 4%. The economics are strongest in long-haul, regional and last-mile fleets because high annual mileage magnifies every avoided service call and every incremental efficiency gain.

The connected model also changes the revenue relationship. Tire makers can combine products with monitoring subscriptions, analytics and service support, creating recurring digital revenue and stronger customer retention than a standalone tire sale.

Key Insights From Radial Insights' Smart Connected Tires Study

- Asia-Pacific Leads, but the Market Is Geographically Balanced: Asia-Pacific holds 32.04% of 2025 demand, followed closely by North America at 30.07% and Europe at 27.89%.

- Commercial Fleets Are the Largest Early Adopters: High-mileage operators have the clearest ROI from pressure, temperature and wear monitoring.

- RFID and Embedded Sensors Build the Data Layer: Identification, condition monitoring and tread intelligence support lifecycle tracking and predictive maintenance.

- OEM Integration Expands the Addressable Market: Premium and EV programs increasingly use tire data for safety, energy management and differentiated digital services.

- Analytics Platforms Become a Competitive Battleground: OEM proprietary systems compete with third-party tools that offer cross-brand compatibility for mixed fleets.

Smart Tires Move Deeper Into Vehicle Control and Safety Systems

Connected tires are beginning to provide information that can support more than maintenance. Friction, load and road-condition estimates can become inputs for braking, stability control and advanced driver-assistance systems, especially as vehicles become more software defined.

Pirelli Cyber Tyre demonstrates this direction by transmitting tire information directly into vehicle electronics, while Goodyear SightLine has been integrated with vehicle-control software platforms. Michelin's universal tire digital-twin approach shows another path, using vehicle data and algorithms to estimate tire condition without requiring every function to depend on additional tire-mounted hardware.

This shift raises the strategic value of tire data. Suppliers that can deliver accurate analytics and secure integration with vehicle systems can move higher in the mobility software stack and create partnerships that are more difficult to displace than conventional product-supply contracts.

OEM Premiumization Creates a High-Value Connected Tire Channel

Premium and electric vehicle manufacturers are increasingly using connected-tire technology to differentiate safety, range estimation and customer experience. Sensorized fitments can support more accurate maintenance alerts and give vehicle software a richer understanding of real-time tire conditions.

The opportunity is especially relevant for EVs because tire pressure, wear and load directly influence efficiency. As connected features move into production vehicles, replacement tires may need to preserve sensor compatibility and approved specifications, creating a follow-on aftermarket opportunity for OEM-aligned suppliers.

Regional Market Outlook

Asia-Pacific leads with a 32.04% share, supported by automotive manufacturing, fleet expansion and connected-mobility investment in China, Japan and South Korea. The region also offers scale for sensor and electronics supply chains.

North America accounts for 30.07% and benefits from a mature commercial fleet sector, strong telematics adoption and early deployment of predictive maintenance tools. Europe represents 27.89%, supported by premium vehicle manufacturing, safety regulation and digital fleet-management adoption.

Market Challenges

System cost and integration complexity remain significant barriers, especially for small fleets and mass-market passenger vehicles. Connected tire solutions must work across different vehicle architectures, sensor standards and fleet platforms if adoption is to move beyond premium or enterprise customers.

Data governance creates another challenge. Tire and vehicle data can reveal usage patterns, maintenance condition and operational behavior, requiring cybersecurity, privacy controls and clear ownership rules. Suppliers that cannot demonstrate secure data handling and interoperability may struggle to win long-term OEM or fleet contracts.
