Filter by:The proposed clinical studies will analyze the interactions between progesterone, nicotine, alterations in endocrine hormones, mood and cardiovascular measures. It is hypothesized that the administration of progesterone at a dose that mimics luteal phase levels in normal cycling women will diminish the positive subjective effects of nicotine, as has been consistently observed for cocaine. This novel approach could have direct implications for facilitating smoking cessation treatment in women of reproductive age

Clinical studies are proposed to analyze the interactions between nicotine, alterations in endocrine hormones, mood and cardiovascular measures. The studies are designed to examine the contribution of gender and menstrual cycle phase. It is hypothesized that analysis of nicotine's rapid hormonal, cardiovascular and subjective effects will be important for developing novel biologic approaches to treatment for nicotine abuse and dependence as well as advancing understanding of the neurobiology of nicotine reinforcement.
The purpose of the overall parent study is to determine the impact of gender and hormones (estradiol, progesterone, testosterone and cortisol) on responses to stress and smoking cues presented in daily, "real-world" cue presentations compared to a final cue session in a lab. In addition, in the portion of the study that incorporates clinical trials elements and is reported here, the study will examine the impact of a single dose of oxytocin (chemical produced in the body) versus placebo (inactive substance) on reactivity to a stress procedure (Trier Social Stress Task) in smokers. The overall parent study involves a cue presentation technology known as "CREMA" (Cue Reactivity Ecologic Momentary Assessment) which delivers four daily cue presentations to you on a handheld device during your everyday routine. Additionally, the study involves daily collection of saliva samples for hormonal testing. These daily procedures will provide information about the role of cues and hormones in daily life. The clinical trial portion of the study (reported here) consists of measures collected within the laboratory.
After successfully quitting smoking, smokers with schizophrenia are vulnerable to relapse shortly after discontinuation of treatment. The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of a 12-month relapse prevention intervention in recently abstinent smokers with schizophrenia. Subjects participated in a 12-week smoking cessation phase, where they received nicotine replacement therapy, bupropion SR 150mg bid, and cognitive behavioral therapy. If, at the end of the 12 weeks, they were able to demonstrate 1 week of abstinence, they continued in the relapse prevention phase of the study, where they continued to receive nicotine replacement therapy, bupropion SR 150mg bid, and cognitive behavioral therapy.
The study is being done to determine whether an in-hospital intervention using a brief intervention to facilitate quitline utilization will increase quitline utilization by hospitalized smokers, and will increase post hospital discharge smoking abstinence rates. Study participants will be randomized to receive either a brief quitline facilitation intervention , or a control intervention of a brief stop-smoking message. The study will also compare healthcare costs and utilization in the first six months following hospitalization between the two groups.
Smokers have three choices when faced with surgery: keep smoking, quit for a short time around surgery or quit for good. In the first specific aim, a decision aid was designed to help facilitate the discussion of these choices between smokers and healthcare providers. This second aim will test whether this decision aid improves the decisional quality compared with standard methods used to discuss perioperative smoking.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the first web-based cessation program developed expressly for people living with HIV who smoke tobacco. Main study goals are (1) to evaluate the website's feasibility (i.e., recruitment, adherence, retention, and satisfaction) and (2) to complete a prospective, randomized controlled trial comparing the efficacy of the online program to standard care with a primary outcome of 3 month point-prevalence abstinence.
This study is designed to test the hypotheses that incentives can increase both participation in smoking cessation treatment and resulting cessation rates, when they are offered to Medicaid BadgerCare Plus pregnant smokers.
