Filter by:A single-center study designed to evaluate changes in short-term biomarkers of potential harm (BoPH) in healthy adult cigarette smokers of two age groups (Group A: 24-34 years; Group B: 35-60 years) during 14 days of smoking abstinence.
The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of patient navigation to promote linkage to smoking cessation treatments in cancer patients.
The goals of this project are to determine the effects of varying degrees of cigarette filter ventilation on biomarkers of toxicant exposure and smoking behavior and on subjective responses to the cigarette. The primary aim of this study is to examine the effects of unventilated vs ventilated filter cigarettes on urinary biomarkers of toxicant exposure and smoking behavior (e.g., cigarettes per day, intensity of smoking). The secondary objectives are 1) to examine the effects of cigarette filter ventilation on subjective measures such as cigarette dependence and responses to study cigarettes.
Cigarette smoking is a significant public health concern. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive form of brain stimulation that has already displayed remarkable potential for producing novel, non-pharmacological interventions for depression and cigarette smokers. In this study, investigators will use brain MRI to guide TMS therapy for smoking cessation.
This is an open-label, 4-way crossover study designed to estimate the nicotine, glycerin, propylene glycol, menthol, formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, and acrolein levels in exhaled breath samples during use of four MarkTen® XL e-vapor products. The study will enroll approximately 32 adult e-vapor-using subjects at one site in the United States in High Point, NC.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of various tobacco products (including but not limited to combustible cigarettes, medicinal nicotine, electronic cigarettes, and smokeless tobacco) on cutaneous wound healing. There will also be a non- smoking control group. This study will be designed as a pilot study. The majority of individuals will be recruited from ongoing studies at the University of Minnesota - Tobacco Research Programs.
There is little published data on exposure to and evaluations of large-scale, online tobacco control campaigns. This project addresses the gap. Under 2 specific aims, the investigators will identify the independent effects of varying levels of digital message exposure to promote anti-tobacco attitudes, beliefs, or behaviors among youth and young adults, first through a randomized experiment online, and second through a field-based evaluation. These studies will advance the science of digital health and have wide application to future campaigns.
This study is designed to evaluate plasma nicotine pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters following the use of nicotine pouches in cigarette smokers who have experience with use of smokeless tobacco (SST) [e.g., snus, moist snuff].
Interventions to disrupt memory reconsolidation have held promise for the treatment of stress- and anxiety-related disorders. In the present study, the investigators will examine whether an intervention based on these principles, called memory updating, could be adapted for reward-seeking behaviors. To test this, non-treatment seeking tobacco smokers will be exposed to smoking cues and/or stress, two stimuli known to trigger smoking. It is predicted that exposure to a stress task will enhance the cues' motivational salience and yield greater susceptibility to the memory updating procedure. As an add-on, the investigators will examine COVID-associated changes in substance use and whether participants in the memory updating groups might be more resilient to these effects. It is predicted that the changes in substance use will depend on whether the substances are used primarily in social settings.
Aims: To identify the predictors associated with smoking cessation in smokers under treatment for alcohol and/or cannabis treated in drug treatment centers (DTC). Methodology: Mixed methods project with qualitative and quantitative designs (three studies). Study I discussion groups: of clinical professionals of DTC to explore the barriers/facilitators of these smokers in quitting and the interventions carried out. Study II Prospective cohort of smokers in alcohol and/or cannabis treatment that will be followed-up for 12 months. Sample size: difference in incidence (exposed to cessation interventions versus non-exposed = 12 per 100 years), α = 0.05, β = 0.10, losses = 20% (n = 726). Dependent variables: self-reported and verified tobacco consumption abstinence, quit attempts, motivation, and self-efficacy. Independent variables: age, sex, the substance under treatment. Analysis: incidence, relative risk and simple and multiple logistic regression models (odds ratio and confidence interval, CI, 95%) of quitting. Study III discussion groups: with smokers under alcohol and/or cannabis treatment selected according to their typology. Analysis: of thematic content and triangulation qualitative and quantitative results. Expected results: Characterization of variables that influence tobacco cessation, to improve the design of interventions.
