Filter by:This is a single center, first-in-human, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Single-Ascending Dose (SAD) / Multiple-Ascending Dose (MAD) study incorporating a food-effect cohort.
The pilot study proposal aims to modulate craving and attentional bias towards smoking cues in 40 people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), with functional MRI (fMRI) brain correlates. TMS is a form of noninvasive brain stimulation and modulates neural activity using tiny doses of focused electricity. For the study, participants would perform two cognitive tasks and neuroimaging before and after the TMS and investigators would compare changes in these paradigms with TMS. The investigators will also get a point of contact urine drug screen before study initiation. The investigators will aim to recruit 20 subjects in each arm of our trial (total of 40) from the BlueGrass HIV Clinic.
This is an implementation trial of the All Nations Breath of Life (ANBL) smoking cessation program, which has already been tested for efficacy in reservation populations and shown feasibility in urban populations. It includes four implementation sites, two reservation sites and two urban sites. Therefore, investigators plan to test efficacy simultaneously. Implementation will follow guidelines described in the protocol, with all sites implementing certain parts of the intervention the same way, with the freedom to modify some aspects of the intervention for appropriate use in their communities. Statistical considerations are described in the appropriate section.
This is a pilot study to determine the feasibility and success of offering smoking cessation counseling for ambulatory patients who present for scheduled cardiac catheterization.
This study aims to explore the effectiveness of a combined intervention using brief cessation advice and personalized chat-based positive psychological support compared with the control group on current smokers who join the Quit to Win Contest.
The purpose of this study is to determine the benefits of a personalized treatment approach, compared to a non-personalized treatment approach, for smoking cessation. In other words, this study will help us know if recommending a specific medication to individual smokers will make it easier to quit smoking than simply offering an option of medications. The specific recommendation for a medication will be based on a test that measures how quickly a smoker breaks down, or metabolizes, nicotine.
The intervention is aimed to improve adherence to the lung cancer screening (LCS) guidelines and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) coverage criteria to conduct shared decision-making (SDM) and provide smoking cessation services in rural primary care practices.
The aim of the study was determined to examine the relationship between the health literacy scales of the patients who came to the smoking cessation clinic and their smoking cessation success. The patient follow-up files registered in the archive of the smoking cessation clinic will be scanned for the last 2 years and the demographic data and follow-up information of the patients will be reached. Patients who have completed the 1-year follow-up period will be contacted by phone, questioning whether they smoke or not, and will be invited to answer the health literacy scale. Accepting patients will be divided into two groups as those who quit smoking and those who cannot, and health literacy scales will be compared.
This study investigates the feasibility of a cognitive dissonance-based mobile app for smoking cessation (CDI). Cognitive dissonance refers to the conflict between beliefs and behaviors; interventions are designed to promote this conflict to motivate people to change their behavior. Recent research has demonstrated the efficacy and potential of using cognitive dissonance interventions for a wide range of health and behavioral problems including smoking cessation. This study will develop an initial version of the CDI mobile app and evaluate the app in an evaluation study with 60 adult smokers.
The main purpose of this experimental study is to compare the existing health education program for School Health and Education Program (SHEP) in the Junior High Schools with a new health education model (Smart-Kids') for the prevention of smoking initiation and to improve the quit rate among students in Upper East Region of Ghana. The intervention will be based on the Theory of Triadic Influences (TTI) which involves the cultural environment in which adolescents mature, their immediate social situation, and intrapersonal differences. These three factors impact through different mediating variables, such as attitudes, normative beliefs, and self-efficacy, which eventually affect smoking intentions and smoking behavior as the outcome measures. The study design is a cluster randomized control trial. After baseline assessment, the investigators will randomize schools to receive the new health education for three months whiles the comparator (control group) will continue with the usual health education. The investigators will conduct a post-intervention assessment using the same questionnaire with unique identity codes linking each participant to their baseline assessments immediately at the end of the intervention. Final assessment will be done approximately three months after the intervention. The investigators will assess and compare the effectiveness of the new health model to the normal health promotion programs (SHEP). The investigators hypothesized that there will be no significant differences observed between the new teacher-led health education program (the Smart-Kids Program) and the existing SHEP coordinator-led in preventing smoking uptake among the youth. Alternatively, the new teacher-led health education program would facilitate the effects of the program on outcomes. on four key primary endpoints as follows: - H1: The intervention study will result in a 30% reduction in smoking uptake - H2: The intervention study will result in a 10% reduction in smokers - H3. The intervention will increase knowledge of the harmful effects of tobacco use by 50% - H4. The intervention will increase the willingness to quit smoking by 10% among smokers
