Adapted Motivational Interviewing and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Food Addiction: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Food addiction is the concept that individuals can be "addicted" to foods, particularly highly processed foods. This concept has attracted growing research interest given rising obesity rates and the engineering of food products. Although food addiction is not a recognized mental disorder, individuals do identify as being addicted to foods and self-help organizations have existed since 1960 to purportedly treat it (i.e., through abstinence). However, little research has been conducted on how abstinence approaches work. Such methods may even be harmful given the risk of disordered eating. Currently, there are no empirically supported treatments for food addiction. However, evidence-based treatments do exist for addictions and eating disorders, such as motivational interviewing and cognitive behavioural therapy, which may prove beneficial for food addiction, given neural similarities between addictions and binge eating. The current study proposes a randomized controlled trial using a four-session adapted motivational interviewing (AMI) and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) intervention for food addiction. This intervention combines the personalized assessment feedback and person-centred counseling of AMI with CBT skills for eating disorders, such as self-monitoring of food intake. The aim is to motivate participants to enact behavioural change, such as reduced and moderate consumption of processed foods. Outcome measures will assess food addiction and binge eating symptoms, self-reported consumption of processed foods, readiness for change, eating self-efficacy, and other constructs such as emotional eating. The intervention condition will be compared to a waitlist control group. Both groups will be assessed at pre- and postintervention periods, as well as over a 3-month follow-up period to assess maintenance effects. Based on a power analysis and previous effect sizes following AMI interventions for binge eating, a total sample size of n = 58 is needed. A total of 131 individuals will be recruited to account for previous exclusion and withdrawal rates. Participation is estimated to take place from March 2021 to March 2022. All intervention sessions will be conducted virtually over secure videoconferencing technology or telephone, expanding access to all adult community members across Ontario, Canada. Twenty randomly selected session tapes will be reviewed for MI adherence.

Feasibility and Acceptability Study of the "O'Dide" Application in People Suffering From an Addiction
Substance Use Disorders (SUD) are associated with cognitive schemas that lead to care attrition and mistrust towards care. Considering this within SUD management, it is important to establish a confident relation between the patient and the care team to favorize acre observance. However, it demands an important availability of the healthcare team, allowing for frequent interactions at all times, including at night and during days off. With the present study, the investigator postulated that an application called Ô DIDE for Digital Interaction for Detoxification Engagement, that aims to help the caregivers maintaining a link with the patient in order to facilitate confidence in the relationship, could favorize care observance especially consumption report.

Diagnostic Ability of Plasma Based Neuromodulatory Cytokine Production (Kaihani Score) in Gambling Addiction
The Kaihani Score is a blood based means of assessing molecules believed to be associated with gambling addiction. The current clinical trial will assess the Kaihani Score in 3 groups: Group 1: 10 patients with no personal or family problems with gambling as assessed by the PG-YBOCS (obsessions-compulsions scale Yale-Brown (Y-BOCS), adapted for pathological gambling) (PG-YBOCS). Group 2: 10 patients with moderate gambling addiction as assessed by the PG-YBOCS (obsessions-compulsions scale Yale-Brown (Y-BOCS), adapted for pathological gambling) (PG-YBOCS). Group 3: 10 patients with severe gambling addiction as assessed by the PG-YBOCS (obsessions-compulsions scale Yale-Brown (Y-BOCS), adapted for pathological gambling) (PG-YBOCS). The goal of the study is to confirm preliminary efficacy of the Kaihani Score as a blood based means of assessing gambling propensity.

Collaborating to Heal Addiction and Mental Health in Primary Care
The gold-standard intervention for Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) is Medication for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD). Because more patients with OUD need access to MOUD in primary care, the investigators are testing whether the Collaborative Care model (CoCM) is effective at treating both mental health disorders (MHD) and OUD concurrently in primary care settings. The intervention is CoCM for MHD and OUD. The active control is CoCM for MHD, but not treating OUD. The primary objective is to compare patient-reported outcomes in the intervention and control groups, and will be tested with in an Effectiveness trial. The secondary objective is to compare the detection of OUD pre- versus post-OUD screening implementation, and will be tested using a Pre-Post trial design. The exploratory objective is to compare intervention clinics randomized to a low-intensity sustainability implementation strategy or a high-intensity sustainability strategy, and will be tested in an Implementation trial.

Expanding Capacity in Alberta to Deliver Contingency Patient Management in Outpatient Addiction Treatment: A Randomized Clinical Trial for Methamphetamine Use
Methamphetamine misuse has become a growing concern in Alberta, creating a burden on the health care system. Further, individuals who use methamphetamine in Alberta exhibit significant difficulty remaining in treatment. These troubling patterns necessitate the provision of evidence-based practices (EBPs)-those grounded in empirical evidence-to ensure the best possible care and outcomes for those struggling with this addiction. Within the field of substance use (SU), contingency management (CM) is an extensively studied evidence-based treatment (EBT) for addictive disorders. CM is an intervention that provides incentives to encourage positive behavioural change. Compared to standard care (treatment-as-usual (TAU)), CM has resulted in improvements in abstinence, attendance, adherence, retention, and quality of life. The efficacy of CM has largely been investigated in the context of reinforcing abstinence, though the literature suggests that CM which reinforces attendance may be as effective. Research from the US has examined the cost-effectiveness of CM and found that although CM costs more, it was associated with greater abstinence, treatment completion, and substance-absent urine compared to TAU. Despite the promising literature, the uptake of CM in Canada is limited making it difficult to understand whether this EBT is equally efficacious as compared to the US. This study will implement and evaluate the efficacy of virtually delivered attendance-based CM in outpatient addiction treatment in Alberta. Participants (N=544) will be individuals seeking treatment for methamphetamine use (n=304) and individuals seeking treatment for substance use issues other than methamphetamine use (n=240). It is hypothesized that compared to participants in TAU, participants in CM will evidence: (1) greater retention, (2) greater attendance, (3) greater abstinence from methamphetamine and less methamphetamine use, (4) greater abstinence from other SU and less SU, and (5) greater improvement in quality of life over the intervention and follow-up periods. Exploratory aims include understanding how: outcomes differ based remote versus in-person delivery of CM; outcomes differ between participants who use methamphetamine and participants who use substances other than methamphetamine; the costs of CM differ from TAU; CM changes health service use.

Alliances to Disseminate Addiction Prevention and Treatment (ADAPT): A Statewide Learning Health System to Reduce Substance Use Among Justice-Involved Youth in Rural Communities
Youth involved in the juvenile justice system (YJJ) bear a disproportionate burden of the addiction crisis. YJJ substance use (SU) is extremely prevalent, with a third of YJJ meeting criteria for a substance use disorder (SUD). The investigators seek to address the national addiction crisis at its epicenter. Despite their high need for SUD services, and the proliferation of evidence-based interventions to reduce SU, YJJ are rarely connected to needed, high-quality SU care. A care cascade model highlights gaps in YJJ achieving the full continuum of SUD care (i.e., SUD risk identification, treatment referral, treatment initiation, and treatment engagement). YJJ on community supervision/probation face a unique problem accessing SUD services; while the courts or probation may identify YJJ need for SUD care, YJJ must receive care through healthcare agencies in the community. The primary goal of the project, Alliances to Disseminate Addiction Prevention and Treatment (ADAPT) is to address this and other gaps along the care cascade for YJJ. The investigators will accomplish this goal by creating alliances between the juvenile justice system (JJ) agencies and community mental health centers (CMHCs) in eight Indiana counties. ADAPT takes a two-pronged approach. First, the investigators will employ a Learning Health System (LHS) to develop collaborative alliances between JJ agencies and CMHCs, organizations that traditionally operate independently. Second, the investigators will present local Cascade data during continuous quality improvement cycles within the LHS alliances. By offering agency representatives an opportunity to view and discuss, for example, the local rate at which YJJ with SUD risk are initiating CMHC SU services, the investigators will facilitate development of tailored, local solutions to improve the Cascade for each county's YJJ. To maximize long-term sustainability of ADAPT's JJ-CMHC alliances, the investigators will conduct this research in collaboration with leaders from an existing statewide initiative, the Juvenile Detention Alternatives Initiative (JDAI). JDAI is a juvenile justice reform effort that utilizes data-driven decision-making and is implemented in almost 300 counties across the US. If this project is successful, the JDAI infrastructure and support for this research will inform sustainment and expansion across Indiana and the nation. The investigators hypothesize that ADAPT - novel LHS alliances using Cascade data to implement localized solutions to YJJ receiving evidence-based addictions care - will positively impact SU and recidivism outcomes over time. The investigators seek to complete the following specific aims: AIM 1: Implement LHS alliances between JJ agencies and CMHCs. The investigators will establish LHS alliances: novel, collaborative partnerships between JJ agencies and CMHCs. AIM 2: Generate and track local solutions to address gaps in the Cascade for YJJ in rural Indiana counties. Quantifying local Cascade data will enable JJ agencies and CMHCs to suggest and implement tailored, evidenced-based interventions, which will be tracked through LHS quality improvement cycles. AIM 3: Assess implementation outcomes and processes. We will assess implementation outcomes, such as system alliance, among JJ and CHMC personnel using mixed methods. AIM 4: Assess the impact of ADAPT. Conduct a stepped wedge cluster randomized controlled trial to assess the impact of LHS alliances on the Cascade for YJJ. We will analyze administrative data linked across JJ and health systems to assess the long-term, community-wide effects of ADAPT on public health and safety outcomes (e.g., lower rates of SU-related outcomes and criminal recidivism).
