Filter by:The present research project aims to develop an innovative and empirically validated intervention protocol for smoking cessation among patients with substance use disorders (SUDs). For this purpose, two smoking cessation treatments tailored for SUDs will be assessed. Participants will be assigned to one of the following treatment conditions: 1) Cognitive-behavioral treatment for smoking cessation (CBT) + Episodic Future Thinking (EFT); 2) The same treatment alongside Contingency Management (CM) for shaping abstinence. The main goals are: 1. To analyze the feasibility (e.g., acceptability, compliance) of implementing the abovementioned protocol treatments to a community setting. 2. To assess abstinence rates in each treatment condition at short and long-term follow-ups: post-treatment, one, two, three, six and twelve months after post-treatment. 3. To assess the effects of smoking abstinence on other substance use. 4. To analyze the moderating effect of individual variables over treatment outcomes: sociodemographic characteristics, drug demand, severity of nicotine dependence and SUD, severity of depressive symptomatology and impulsivity.
This study will assess the bioequivalence of the test product (Nicotine Prototype Mini lozenge 4 milligrams [mg]) to a commercial reference product (nicotine polacrilex mini lozenge 4mg) in healthy smokers under fasting conditions.

In Qatar, tobacco use is one of the main causes of premature deaths and preventable diseases. As per the 2013 Global Adult Tobacco Survey (GATS), 12.1% of adults and 20.2% of men in Qatar smoke tobacco, and 55.4% of this smoke an average of 16 cigarettes or more per day. Moreover, 15.7% of school students aged 13 to 15 years currently use some form of tobacco according to the 2013 Global Youth Tobacco Survey (GYTS). In Qatar, tobacco-related diseases including cardiovascular diseases and cancers are highly prevalent. In an effort to reduce tobacco use, Qatar has ratified the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC) and has implemented many tobacco control initiatives. In spite of these measures, tobacco use is still rising in Qatar. Pharmacists practicing in retail/community pharmacy are often the first port of call for individuals requiring health advice in general. Evidence has proven that they have a pivotal role in health promotion and disease prevention including tobacco cessation. Hence, pharmacists have excellent opportunities to reduce tobacco use in Qatar. Yet, ambulatory and community pharmacists in Qatar are not sufficiently contributing to tobacco control. Based on published data, only 21% of community pharmacists in Qatar always or most of the time ask patients about their smoking status. Furthermore, when asked about their smoking cessation training, 89% of pharmacists did not receive any kind of education or training about smoking cessation counseling in the past. In an effort to build the capacity of pharmacists in Qatar, the aim of the proposed study is to design, implement and evaluate an intensive education program on tobacco treatment for pharmacists in Qatar. The study will be a prospective randomized controlled trial comparing the effectiveness of the education program on pharmacists' tobacco cessation-related knowledge, attitudes, self-efficacy, and skills.
The purpose of this study is to measure the individual and combined influence of electronic cigarette (ECIG) heating element resistance and liquid nicotine concentration on ECIG acute effects. Thirty-two experienced ECIG users will complete four independent laboratory sessions that will differ by heater resistance (0.5 ohm or 1.5 ohm) and liquid nicotine concentration (3 or 8 mg/ml). Other factors such as voltage, liquid solvent ratio, and liquid flavor will be held constant. Plasma nicotine concentration, subjective effects, and puffing behavior will be recorded for each condition.
This study is about whether or not little cigars and cigarillos cause or maintain addiction, and if flavors, such as fruit, make them more addictive. The purpose of this study is to understand the addiction potential of little cigars and cigarillos compared to cigarettes in young adults who smoke both products. This study will also look at the differences between men and women. In the rest of this form, little cigars or cigarillos will be referred to as LCCs.
This study plans to investigate whether using electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) or skin patches containing nicotine affects switching from smoking conventional combustible (burning) cigarettes.
This research study is designed with the purpose of evaluating a new drug, combination Dextromethorphan-Bupropion (AXS-05), for its effects on smoking behavior.
The JUUL 5% Electronic Nicotine Delivery System (ENDS) is being studied as an alternative to combustible cigarette use. This study aims to find out how much nicotine is in the blood and urine of healthy adult subjects after using three JUUL 5% ENDS compared to smoking usual brands of combustible cigarettes and stopping smoking.
The purpose of this study is to 1) examine cognitive acuity following e-cig use (as compared to no e-cig use), 2) examine motor coordination following beer and e-cig use (as compared to beer consumption only).
