Filter by:This 2 x 2 factorial, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial will test two interventions: directly observed medication therapy, and long-term therapy with varenicline among smokers with opioid use disorder recruited from community-based, outpatient opioid treatment programs. The analytic strategy will evaluate the milestones in smoking cessation-achieving initial abstinence, preventing lapse and preventing relapse--necessary for long-term cessation, and evaluate theoretically-guided psychological and social factors and pharmacogenetic factors that influence these cessation processes.
This is a pilot study designed in an effort to develop and improve access to effective treatments for tobacco use in rural Veterans using a tailored intervention approach. Specifically, we will evaluate a combined behavioral and pharmacological smokeless tobacco cessation which concomitantly addresses comorbid issues commonly experienced by rural tobacco users including elevated depressive symptoms, risky alcohol use, and concerns about weight gain. The objectives are to: 1. Evaluate the feasibility of an individually-tailored telephone intervention for rural smokeless tobacco users 2. Examine the impact of the intervention on treatment utilization, patient satisfaction, and smokeless tobacco cessation.
This study will examine how abstinence-induced brain changes contribute to smoking cessation outcomes in treatment-seeking smokers.
This randomized clinical trial studies how well behavioral activation therapy and nicotine replacement therapy work in increasing smoking cessation. Behavioral interventions use techniques to help patients change the way they react to environmental triggers that may cause a negative reaction. Giving behavioral activation therapy and nicotine replacement therapy may help patients quit smoking or change their smoking behavior.
This randomized pilot phase IV trial studies the side effects and how well varenicline works compared to nicotine replacement therapy in helping patients that smoke to quit. Varenicline is a drug that acts the same way as nicotine in the brain but is not habit-forming. Nicotine replacement therapy consists of nicotine patches and lozenges. It is not yet known if varenicline is more effective than nicotine replacement therapy in helping patients quit smoking.
In this proposed study with People Living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA), we will use a stepped care model called a Sequential Multiple Assignment Randomized Trial (SMART) to examine the efficacy of low- and high-intensity smoking cessation treatments for nicotine dependent PLWHA that incorporate the current standard of care and prize-based contingency management. Intervention will be administered in a community-based HIV integrated care clinic in downtown Detroit, which has the highest prevalence rates of HIV/AIDS and smoking in Michigan. Phase 1 will last 4 weeks, and will involve brief intervention to help participants stop smoking. For phase 2, participants will be assigned to different study arms depending on whether they are Responders (reduced their smoking) or Non-responders (continued to smoke). 1. Phase 1: We hypothesize that brief high-magnitude prize contingency management will result in greater reduction in smoking than standard of care alone. 2. Phase 2a: We hypothesize that non-responders who are assigned to contingency management will be more likely to reduce their smoking throughout treatment and to abstain from smoking at all follow-up points. 3. Phase 2b: We hypothesize that responders who are assigned to monitoring and low-magnitude prize contingency management will be more likely to maintain their reduced or abstinent smoking status at all follow-up time-points.
The project is designed to examine the effectiveness of strategies to increase access to treatment for tobacco use and dependence among rural Veteran smokers. In addition, it will examine whether tailored treatment that is designed to address common comorbid conditions that are related to cigarette smoking enhances success with quitting relative to enhanced standard of care. The investigators hypothesize that participants assigned to the tailored tobacco cessation intervention will report greater cessation rates at six months. The investigators also anticipate more favorable outcomes on measures of depressive symptoms, alcohol use, and body weight.
The primary goal of this project is to investigate the potential efficacy of exogenous progesterone (with supplemental relapse prevention counseling) on postpartum relapse in new mothers. Also to determine the feasibility of enhanced compliance monitoring and identification of collateral factors effecting outcomes.
Despite the establishment of various smoking cessation methods, including pharmacological intervention, only a small proportion of smokers who visit doctors choose to receive such assistance. Such under-utilization is especially apparent in some cultures, as in the case of Korea, where a government survey showed that only 0.5% of current or formal smoker reported they had been prescribed smoking cessation medication. Shame in asking for help for an addictive disorder has been recognized as one of the most recognized cultural barrier in Asian-American population. It is clear that culturally focused studies on smoking cessation is warranted. Patient decision aids are tools that help people become involved in decision making by providing information about the options and outcomes and by clarifying personal values. Patient decision aids have been developed to help patients decide whether to quit smoking or not, or whether to use smoking medication or not. However, such previous studies have only been focused on western populations. The main purpose of this study is to develop a culturally appropriate decision aid for smoking cessation for the Korean population, as well as evaluate its effect on their decision to use smoking cessation medication. The investigators expect that culturally tailored smoking cessation decision aids would increase knowledge about efficacy of smoking cessation, make people have more positive attitudes toward smoking cessation medication, encourage people to discuss about smoking cessation medication with their physicians. Ultimately the investigators expect it would increase usage of smoking cessation medication and enhance the quitting rate of smoking, which is a very important clinical issue.
The investigators propose to use obstetric-gynecological clinics to conduct a randomized clinical trial that would compare two SBIRTS (Screening, Brief Intervention, Referral and Treatment), delivered either by a trained nurse or by computer, to usual care (a control condition). As part of this trial, the investigators will include outcomes that allow us to assess the cost effectiveness of these three conditions.
