Filter by:This study seeks to determine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of an intervention consisting of off-label use of a medication with strong efficacy data for alcohol use disorder (AUD) with medical management and a clinical pharmacist-delivered behavioral intervention in reducing alcohol use among individuals with HIV and AUD.
Use of vaping products (e.g., electronic nicotine delivery systems, e-cigarettes) has been increasing rapidly, particularly among teens and young adults. With limited information on the long-term effects of vaping products, health information about vaping has been somewhat unclear in regards to associated health risks. Teens and young adults may be reluctant to disclose their use of vaping products to parents or health providers and instead turn to social media to share and seek out information regarding vaping risks and cessation supports. Thus, our current proposal outlines the use of social media to identify teens and young adults socially networking about vaping, the use of an online chatbot screen to evaluate individual cessation support needs, and the use of a digital intervention system to support vaping cessation. The mobile intervention used in this study is based on a widely-used evidence-based mobile intervention for combustible smoking (i.e., quitSTART) and has been adapted for vaping and young adults to include an in-app chatbot to guide users to tailored content and to motivate and encourage their cessation efforts. We aim to integrate our social media recruitment and online screening approach to connect individuals with this mobile app intervention, and will conduct a randomized controlled trial to evaluate user engagement with and preliminary efficacy of the digital intervention on reducing vaping behaviors among teens and young adults.
In a crossover study, experienced electronic cigarette users will vape 3 different forms of nicotine: natural (derived from tobacco), synthetic, or a 50:50 mixture of both natural and synthetic. The investigators will compare nicotine metabolism, cardiovascular effects, patterns of self-administration, and participants' feelings of craving/withdrawal and enjoyment.
The goal of this clinical trial is to reveal the role and mechanism of orexin in nicotine addicts, compared to healthy control. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Whether nicotine addiction-related behaviors, including nicotine withdrawal symptoms, cue-induced increased psychological craving, and relapse behavior are related to plasma orexin levels ? - What is the neural mechanism of the orexin system in the fMRI brain network? Participants will be asked to do as followed: 1. Day 1: Fill in the scale, test the concentration of exhaled CO, collect 5ml of blood from the vein, and take about 60 minutes. 2. Day 1-3: Test and record the amount of smoking for 3 days, about 5 minutes. 3. Day 4-5: Collect fMRI data, for about 60 minutes, perform extinction training, for about 30 minutes 4. Day 6: Fill in the scale, test the concentration of CO in exhaled breath, collect 5ml of venous blood, test after subsidence and ignition test, and collect fMRI data, for about 60 minutes. 5. Follow-up (2 weeks/4 weeks): Complete the follow-up on smoking craving and relapse by phone within 2 weeks, about 5 minutes, and complete the scale and collect fMRI data in the 4th week, about 60 minutes.
This study is an examination of the influence of cooling components of WS-3 and menthol on the appeal and addiction potential of nicotine-containing e-liquids among adults.
The purpose of the proposed study is to examine the feasibility of integrating a smoking harm reduction program featuring provision of e-cigarettes and tailored instructions to switch into an existing substance use disorder treatment program. This longitudinal study includes three weeks of micro-surveys delivered via text messages to evaluate the intervention's feasibility and acceptability, gather initial effectiveness data, and understand participants' lived experience of smoking and vaping while engaged in substance use disorder treatment.
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effectiveness of the combination of n-acetylcysteine and motivational enhancement therapy on laboratory improvement in the form of changes in blood nicotine, radiological changes in the form of nerve connectivity on post-therapy frontostriatal fMRI examination and clinical changes in the form of abstinence, withdrawal symptoms and cravings in adult smoker.
Almost one in ten young adults report current e-cigarette use, putting them at risk of developing nicotine addiction and long-term health effects of exposure to inhaled toxicants. Despite the need for effective treatments to help these young users quit, very few treatments targeting any type of tobacco use among young adults have been evaluated, particularly for young adults who vape and have unique treatment needs. To address these needs, this trial will evaluate a digital program for young adult e-cigarette users at all stages of readiness to quit called ACT on Vaping.
The aim of this study is to analyze the effectiveness and efficiency of a multicomponent smoking cessation intervention for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) smokers, including a training protocol on healthy lifestyle habits and self-management of T2DM called "DiMe-SALUD2" project. Overall, 90 patients will be randomly assigned to one of the following conditions: (1) Control Group (waiting list, n = 30), which will only receive brief psychoeducation advice about smoking cessation; (2) Experimental Group 1 - Cognitive-behavioral treatment (CBT) for smoking cessation (n = 30), where a multicomponent cognitive-behavioral program for quitting will be applied; (3) Experimental Group 2 - CBT for smoking cessation + DiMeSALUD2 protocol (n = 30), where the CBT intervention will be applied plus a training protocol on healthy lifestyle habits and self-management of T2DM. The specific goals of this project are: 1. To evaluate the added efficacy of the psychoeducation protocol on healthy lifestyle habits and self-management of T2DM plus the multicomponent cognitive-behavioral program to quit smoking (CBT for smoking cessation + DiMeSALUD2 protocol), compared to the standard application of this multicomponent program and to the control group. 2. To describe the impact of the CBT for smoking cessation + DiMeSALUD2 protocol on different key variables (explained below). 3. To analyze the efficiency or cost-effectiveness of the CBT for smoking cessation + DiMeSALUD2 program, and the feasibility of implementing this program in the public health system of Andalusia (Spain). 4. To transfer the knowledge generated to the main health professionals involved in the treatment of smokers with T2DM, through specialized training and the dissemination of a clinical manual created for this purpose.
Substance use disorders (SUD) are characterized by increased automatized responses to drug-related cues (cue-reactivity) and deficient cognitive control. Cue-reactivity (CR) can be elicited by internal (e.g. mood) or external (e.g. situations) cues closely related to consumption. Therefore, one aim for relapse prevention is to control CR by the enhancement of cognitive control, e.g., via noninvasive brain stimulation (NIBS) of cortical areas involved in inhibitory control. However, thus far, treatment effects of NIBS for relapse prevention in SUD are only moderate, despite clear neurophysiological targets. Critically, NIBS is commonly applied in highly standardized laboratory situation, not related to CR, neglecting the current individual (brain-) state. In the current study, relapse-relevant (brain-) states will be evoked in individual, naturalistic settings outside the laboratory and monitored by functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS; assessing cortical activation patterns) and heartrate variability (HRV; as a periphery physiological measure) to capture the optimal (cortical) state for subsequent NIBS by means of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). The aim of this highly innovative approach is increasing the efficiency of relapse prevention in SUD. At its heart, multimodal measurements during real-world (substance-related) choices with high ecological validity will be used to identify markers for individual optimal target states for tDCS. In contrast to current approaches, the target brain state of the individual adaptively controls the tDCS to maximize therapeutic outcome. One obstacle is to clear the data from artefacts to interpret data at a single-trial level, which requires this proof-of-concept study. This data is prerequisite for further clinical randomized-controlled studies in patients with SUD.
