Filter by:This clinical trial explores the manipulation of e-cigarette (EC) nicotine to promote public health. Researchers are trying to understand and gather information about how the strength, form, and structure of nicotine in products play a significant role in their potential for addiction and how they might affect health risks. The information gained from this study may allow researchers to understand how these aspects of nicotine influence the potential for addiction, how people puff on ECs, how the body processes nicotine, and any potential harmful effects it might have on health. Exploring these specific characteristics of nicotine may also determine if an EC product standard could help identify optimal nicotine levels for users.
This clinical trial tests the effect of tobacco flavor and liquid composition on the way a person puffs on a vape (topography). In general, tobacco products are designed with sensory factors in mind, such as flavor, to increase the appeal. Flavors and the composition of nicotine, either made in a lab (synthetic) or from tobacco, may create positive sensory effects, such as look, feel and taste, and influence smoking behavior and willingness to try different types of cigarettes. Understanding how nicotine vaping products are used is important in assessing individual and population level health risks. Vape flavors and synthetic nicotine may be related to harmful effects on health from vaping and may impact the appeal, risk beliefs and vaping topography.
This clinical trial examines the impact of nicotine patches on preventing cancer in rural and Appalachia Ohio residents. Nicotine pouches are new smokeless tobacco products that are marketed as substitutes for smokeless tobacco and are gaining in popularity. There is little research on how nicotine pouches will be adopted by residents of Ohio Appalachia and rural Ohio. This study may help researchers better understand the appeal and potential impact of nicotine pouches on public health.
This clinical trial tests how well providing education improves screening for lung cancer in patients with a history of smoking. Screenings may help doctors find lung cancer sooner when it may be easier to treat. Education and counseling may be an effective method to help providers and patients learn about lung cancer screening. Providing education and decision counseling to providers and patients may increase lung cancer screening.
This clinical trial evaluates the usefulness of using a smartphone-based HIV-specific smoking cessation intervention at the time of lung cancer screening in helping people living with HIV quit smoking. Positively Smoke Free - Mobile may help patients with HIV quit smoking.
This phase IV trial examines the effectiveness of a multi-level smoking cessation program for high-risk women in rural communities. Cigarette smoking is a major risk factor for cervical cancer in women. Rural primary care practices and providers often lack the electronic health record support to pre-identify smokers for services, as well as lack the necessary counseling training and access to comprehensive cessation programs. Implementing evidence-based smoking cessation programs in rural Appalachia may decrease the rates of cigarette smoking and as a result decrease the rates of cervical cancer.
