Filter by:The proposed research will provide in-depth, longitudinal data, based on real-time reports, which will address key priorities for the FDA including, increased understanding of the relations between electronic cigarette (e-cig) use and 1) nicotine dependence, 2) reductions in combustible cigarette (CC) use, 3) attempts to quit CC use and the success of those attempts, and 4) health-related outcomes such as biomarkers of exposure and carcinogenicity.
The proposed research is a longitudinal human lab study to examine how measures of abuse liability and product appeal vary by e-cigarette device type, and how these lab assessments may predict subsequent e-cigarette and other tobacco use behavior at 1,3, and 6 months. An additional aim is to evaluate e-cigarette safety and tolerability among smokers by device type.
The New Hampshire Medicaid Wellness Incentive Program (WIP) will address both the health disparity and increased costs by providing incentivized health promotion programs to overweight or obese and/or tobacco-smoking Medicaid beneficiaries receiving services at New Hampshire's 10 regional Community Mental Health Centers (CMHCs).
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of nicotine metabolism on occupancy of [11C]-(+)-PHNO to DA 2/3 receptors in different brain areas during periods of abstinence and smoking during an abstinence. This will be a Positron Emission Tomography (PET) study and the radiotracer [11C]-(+)-PHNO (11C]-( + )-4-propyl- 3,4,4a,5,6,10b-hexahydro-2H-naphtho[1,2-b][1,4]oxazin-9-ol) will be used.
The purposes of this study are 1) to determine the pharmacokinetics of nicotine after multiple dose administration by electronic cigarette and 2) to compare the acute effects of multiple dose of nicotine administrated by electronic cigarette compared with those obteined by cigarette.
The investigators plan to compare the impact of two approaches for smoking cessation on smoking abstinence, use of evidenced-based therapy, and quality of life among a diverse population of patients at the Manhattan campus of the VA New York Harbor Healthcare System, which serves a critical safety-net role for urban veterans. During hospitalization, all smokers will receive usual care. Patients will be randomized to one of two arms: financial incentives plus usual care vs. usual care alone, which includes referral to the state Quitline. All patients enrolled in the study will be offered nicotine replacement therapy. The investigators will conduct follow-up assessments at 2 weeks, 2 months, 6 months and 12 months after discharge. The primary study outcome is smoking abstinence at 6-month follow-up, verified by salivary/urinary cotinine.
The purpose of this study is to assess an "adaptive" approach to smoking cessation pharmacotherapy. The protocol is designed to compare adaptive vs. standard approaches to two common smoking cessation pharmacotherapies - Varenicline (commonly known as Chantix) and the Nicotine Patch. The investigators hypothesize that participants allocated to adaptive therapy will show significantly higher biochemically confirmed 30-day continuous abstinence at 12 weeks post-Target Quit Day (TQD).
Smoking is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the U.S. Interventions that increase successful quit attempts among depressed smokers with chronic medical illnesses are particularly important for the VA healthcare system because rates of tobacco use, depression, and chronic medical illnesses are significantly higher among Veterans compared to the general population. Providing smoking cessation services augmented with mood management to Veterans via telephone may increase access to, and utilization of, evidence-based smoking cessation counseling and decrease rates of smoking-related complications for Veterans with chronic medical illnesses and depression. Yet, the reach of smoking cessation telephone counseling has been limited among populations with mental illness. The investigators intend to combine the potency of co-delivered mood management and reach of telephone-delivered interventions by testing the telephone delivery of behavioral mood-management for smoking cessation among smokers with depression and chronic medical illness.
This is a pilot human experimental study to evaluate whether the use of an e-cigarette affects lung function, exhaled CO levels, and quantitative tobacco cigarette consumption in active tobacco smokers. Subjects recruited from the Winchester Chest Clinic (WCC), Adult Primary Care Clinic (PCC) and the Smilow Cancer Hospital Smoking Cessation Service will be randomized to 1 of 2 groups: (1) nicotine patch and intensive counseling (standard care) plus nicotine e-cigarette; (2) nicotine patch and intensive counseling plus non-nicotine e-cigarette.
The purpose of this pilot randomized trial is to determine the feasibility of e-cigarettes and telephone counselling (compared to transdermal nicotine replacement and telephone counselling) as a harm-reduction tool that may lead to increased smoking cessation in the perioperative setting in smokers presenting for elective surgery at the San Francisco Veterans Affairs Medical Center. Secondary outcomes include acceptability of e-cigarettes over transdermal nicotine replacement, length-of-stay in the post-anesthesia care unit, hospital length-of-stay, postoperative complications within the first 30-days, and smoking status 8-weeks after randomization. This pilot study is designed to provide the preliminary data necessary to plan and fund a larger-scale randomized clinical trial that will assess the utility of e-cigarettes in achieving smoking cessation perioperatively. Our ultimate goal is to add to the limited existing data on the safety and efficacy of e-cigarette use in smoking cessation, specifically in the perioperative setting where the risks of continued smoking are great and the motivation to stop is high.
