Filter by:The 2-year research plan will test the Extended Put It Out Project (POP-6) in a pilot randomized trial (N=168) compared to TSP-6, as well as comparing POP-6 and TSP-6 to the POP-3 and TSP-3 interventions from a previously-conducted trial. Participants will be young adults who smoke, identify as sexual or gender minorities (SGM), and use Facebook. Primary outcome will be biochemically verified 7-day abstinence from smoking at 3 and 6 months. Secondary outcomes will be a quit attempt (y/n), stage of change, and thoughts about tobacco abstinence at 3 and 6 months.
This study seeks to evaluate ways to improve outcomes for low-education, uninsured or Medicaid-eligible smokers who do not successfully quit with standard telephone quit line treatment. The study will use an efficient factorial study design to evaluate four evidence-based strategies to improve follow-up care offered by the Wisconsin Tobacco Quit Line (WTQL) to socioeconomically disadvantaged callers who report smoking four months following initial WTQL treatment comprising a single counseling call and 2-week supply of a single nicotine replacement therapy. These strategies include: increasing the intensity of nicotine replacement medication (among those medically cleared to use such medications), increasing the intensity of WTQL counseling, helping callers enroll in an evidence-based smoking cessation texting support program (SmokefreeTXT), and offering moderate financial incentives for engagement in counseling and SmokefreeTXT.
Precision Care (PC) interventions, developed with guidance from a Community Advisory Board (CAB), will be piloted in a Randomized Clinical Trial (RCT) of approximately 100 eligible, consenting daily smokers in the Southern Community Cohort Study (SCCS) who are willing to make a quit attempt with medication and who reside in TN or MS. Participants will be randomized 1:1:1 to 1 of 3 groups; (1) group one informs selection of medication with information on nicotine metabolism; (2) group two offers a genetically-informed lung cancer risk score, and (3) group 3 is Guideline-Based Care (GBC). All groups will be followed for 6 months. All RCT participants will receive FDA-approved smoking cessation medication, be referred to the shared TN/MS state quitline, and be offered the NCI "Clearing the Air" standard intervention. The primary outcome is feasibility of delivering the precision interventions in the SCCS population, as evidenced by ability to recruit, engage, and retain participants through end of study. Secondary outcomes, for which the study is not powered, will include risk perceptions, use of quit aids, lung cancer screening among those who are eligible, and smoking cessation.
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of an intervention to help people to quit smoking throughout an chat bot compared with usual assistance to increase long-term rates of nicotine abstinence in smoking outpatients with biochemical validation at 6 months. Half of participants(control group) will receive usual care by their usual general practitioners and nurses, and the other half (intervention group) will use an evidence-based chat bot specifically designed to help people quit smoking.
The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of an intervention to promote smoking cessation among light smokers.
Tobacco smoke is one of the most preventable cause of mortality and morbidity worlwide, this study is conducted to compare the knowledge of the health effects of smoking among undergraduates exposed and those not exposed to educational pamphlet. This is designed as a randomized clinical trial among 390 undergraduate in University of Benin Edo State Nigeria. Data collection tool was an interviewer-administered questionnaire. Data obtained would be subjected to regression statistics using IBM SPSS version 21.0. The expected outcome will be a veritable tool in tobacco cessation model.
The 2-year research plan will test the Put It Out Project (POP) in a pilot randomized trial (N=120) compared to TSP and two historical control conditions. Participants will be young adults who smoke, identify as sexual or gender minorities, and use Facebook. The primary outcome will be biochemically verified 7-day abstinence from smoking at 3 and 6 months. Secondary outcomes will be a quit attempt (y/n), stage of change, and thoughts about tobacco abstinence at 3 and 6 mos.
The current study aimed to test a culturally tailored program designed to help Pacific Islanders (PIs) between the ages of 18 and 30 quit smoking cigarettes by using a randomized controlled trial design with one intervention group and one control group.
This is an extension of a previous feasibility study (Clinical Trials Registry - NCT02571244). The actual study is a research aimed to compare the effectiveness of telephone counseling and personalized text messages (TM) for supporting post-discharge quit attempts among hospitalized smokers, with focus on smoking cessation as the main outcome. Smokers patients will receive brief interventions and nicotine replacement therapy during the hospitalization. After discharge smoker patients will be allocated into a intervention or control arm. In the first and third months, after randomization, the patients will be contact to smoke abstinence assessment.
Nicotine mediates smoking's addictive effects in the brain. The ratio of 3-hydroxycotinine to cotinine, known as the nicotine metabolite ratio, or NMR, is a genetically- informed biomarker reflecting hepatic CYP2A6 activity and the rate of nicotine metabolism. In light of a recent randomized controlled trial (RCT) in humans in Lancet Respiratory Medicine, which found that the NMR can be used to individualize treatment for smokers, our pilot study aims to determine the feasibility of using NMR to guide selection of pharmacotherapy in clinical populations of daily smokers.
