Filter by:NAMETI-Alcohol, from the acronym for Navarra Medical Trialist Initiative, is a pilot study in which two patterns of alcohol consumption, abstention and Mediterranean alcohol-drinking pattern, and their effects on health in the short and medium term will be compared.
The primary objective is to evaluate whether alcohol warnings about different topics elicit higher perceived message effectiveness than control messages. The secondary objective is to evaluate whether alcohol warnings about different topics elicit higher reactance than control messages.
The goal of this study is to determine the effectiveness of pictorial warning labels (PWLs) featuring narrative (vs. non-narrative) content in communicating the cancer risk of alcohol. Participants will be randomized to view either three narrative or non-narrative PWLs. Key outcome variables include visual attention, message reactance, risk perceptions, and intentions to reduce and stop drinking.
Abstract Aim: This study aimed to determine the effect of individualized nursing interventions based on the Roy Adaptation Model on the recovery of alcohol addicts. Method: This was an experimental study with pretest-posttest, follow-up, and a control group. It included 64 individuals who completed their detoxification process and met the inclusion criteria. The experimental group was provided with individualized care, and interventions were made in line with the Roy Adaptation Model. The personal behaviors that could be related to recurrence (physiological, self-concept, role function, and mutual commitment) and the stimuli that caused recurrence (focal and affecting) were assessed, objectives were determined, and nursing interventions were carried out in line with these objectives. The interventions planned for diagnosing ineffective coping were selected according to the patients' needs among the "support coping" interventions under the title of the behavioral area in the Nursing Intervention Classification (NIC). The data were collected using an introductory information form, the Recovery Assessment Scale (RAS), the Turkish Version of the World Health Organization Quality of Life Instrument (WHOQOL-BREF-TR), and the Penn Alcohol Craving Scale (PACS).
In order to assess the efficacy of the rhythm stabilization component of Health Rhythms' product in addressing sleep problems, investigators will recruit 128 outpatients over the age of 18, who are in early recovery (at least 2 weeks but no more than 6 months) from Alcohol Use Disorder (AUDIT-C score >4) and are experiencing sleep problems (ISI score >/= 10). 64 of these individuals will be randomly allocated to receive the full HealthRhythms package (sensing, trending, and stabilization) on their smartphones, while 64 will be asked to consent to sensing only. The duration of the study will be 14 weeks. The primary outcome measures of the RCT will be the ISI (Insomnia Severity Index). The investigators hypothesize that those receiving the full package will demonstrate lower levels of sleep disturbance.
This study is a randomized, two-arm, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study of N=36 apparently healthy men and women. This study will assess the effect of a blend of dietary supplements on blood and breath levels after consuming alcohol.
Alcohol is a major modifiable risk factor for female breast cancer; yet, awareness of this risk remains surprisingly low and is not systematically addressed in healthcare settings. This study aim to test the effectiveness of a co-designed, automated brief alcohol intervention (Health4Her-Automated) in reducing women's drinking intentions, improving alcohol literacy, and reducing consumption.
Alcohol hangover (veisalgia) is a fairly common phenomenon. The pathogenesis of veisalgia is not understood and treatment has not yet been established. Occasionally, students take N-acetylcysteine (NAC) before binge drinking to alleviate hangover. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of NAC on serum levels of electrolytes, enzymes, acetaldehyde, oxidative stress biomarkers and symptoms of veisalgia in binge drinking. In this randomised double-blind placebo-controlled study, healthy students were randomly assigned into two groups, one receiving NAC and the other placebo. Blood samples were taken before drinking, 30 minutes after 1.5-hour-long drinking and in the subsequent morning. Serum levels of electrolytes, urea, enzymes, ethanol, acetaldehyde, 8-Hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and N-epsilon-hexanoyl-lysine were measured. The participants completed the Acute Hangover Severity Scale (AHSS) based on symptoms.
This pilot cluster-randomized controlled trial will evaluate the PLANTS (Providing LGBTQ+ Adolescents with Nurturance, Trustworthiness, and Safety) course among high school staff. The primary hypotheses are that the PLANTS course will have high acceptability, usability, appropriateness, and feasibility as reported by high school staff.
This study aims to develop a brief intervention that uses information from a lab-based cue reactivity protocol to create personalized feedback targeting high-risk alcohol use among young adults who drink alcohol. The intervention mainly focuses on providing feedback on individuals' drinking desire, mood, willingness to drink, and alcohol demand by comparing scores before and after viewing and smelling an alcoholic beverage in the lab session. Other psycho-educational alcohol-related content is also provided in the intervention including strategies for decreasing exposure to cues that increase drinking desires and how to cope with increased desire to drink. This brief intervention is used in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing young adults who receive the brief, online intervention to those who did not receive the brief, online intervention. Participants in both groups complete baseline, lab-based cue reactivity protocol, 2-week follow-up and 3-month follow-up.
