Filter by:The people of the U.S. Affiliated Pacific Islands (USAPI) face higher cancer incidence, especially lung/bronchia and head-and-neck cancer, and poorer cancer outcomes, compared with the U.S. nationally. This may partly be driven by the high rates of cigarette smoking and betel (areca) nut use in the USAPI. Previous data suggest that that adolescents on Guam, as young as middle school students report markedly higher e-cigarette and tobacco product use prevalence in the USAPI compared with the USAPI nationally. Guam youths are also at risk for the use of betel nuts. Yet, currently there are no tobacco product/areca nut use prevention programs that have been developed for and tested specifically USAPI adolescents. The proposed study will develop a school-based substance use prevention curriculum for e-cigarette, tobacco product, and areca nut use prevention among Guam youths. The curriculum will use lessons incorporating innovative videos and culturally grounded activities. The study's specific aims are: 1. To develop a school-based curriculum for e-cigarette, tobacco product (i.e., cigarette, smokeless tobacco), and betel nut use prevention among middle school students in Guam. 2. Test the efficacy of the school-based curriculum in a randomized controlled trial.
To examine reward processing and cognitive control both with and without the influence of vaporized nicotine in young adults with no history of cigarette use using EEG and fMRI. The goal is to determine whether acute nicotine administration using a Juul device would impact functional correlates of reward and inhibitory control in people who commonly use juul devices.
The aim of this study is to determine if graphic messages prevent future vaping use among African American and Latino adolescents. The images have been developed in a user-design model and include four main themes: health reward, financial reward, self-efficacy, and social norms. We will assess pre- and post-exposure reactions on likelihood of future vaping among African American and Latino adolescents.
Menthol cigarettes comprise almost one-third of the United States (US) market share and are disproportionately smoked by racial minorities. Tobacco control policies targeting menthol flavoring in tobacco could have significant public health outcomes, especially among black smokers. One key challenge of tobacco regulation is weighing the risks and benefits of potential policies across different populations (i.e., users and non-users). Tension arises between policies intended to prevent adolescent and young adult (AYA) tobacco initiation and those intended to reduce harm among current tobacco users. The availability of menthol e-liquids may be important for encouraging menthol cigarette smokers to switch to e- cigarettes, but mint e-liquids, which are appealing to AYA, may be unnecessary to facilitate switching. Including mint e-liquids in flavor bans but allowing menthol e-liquids to remain on the market as potential substitution products for menthol smokers may be an optimal policy approach. The study team is proposing a lab study and field assessment to determine how including menthol and mint e-liquids in e-liquid flavor bans or sales restrictions affects tobacco product purchasing and use among menthol cigarette smokers. At lab sessions, participants will complete the Experimental Tobacco Marketplace (ETM) task, a behavioral economics task in which they receive account balances to an online store and can buy menthol cigarettes at escalating costs or buy e-liquids, non-menthol cigarettes, or nicotine replacement gum at fixed costs. They will complete the task under four marketplace conditions: (1) only tobacco e-liquids available, (2) menthol and tobacco e-liquids available, (3) menthol, mint, and tobacco e-liquids available, and (4) tobacco, menthol, mint, fruit, dessert. During a field assessment, product choice is validated by assessing use of products purchased during the ETM task. This proposal will inform policy-makers about the impact banning menthol and mint e-liquids will have on facilitating menthol cigarette smokers switching to e-cigarettes.
The Cessation of Smoking Trial in the Emergency Department (CoSTED) is an National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Health Technology Assessment (HTA) funded randomised controlled trial (RCT). The research question is "in people attending the Emergency Department who smoke, does a brief intervention (including the provision of an electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) and referral to stop smoking services) increase smoking cessation in comparison with usual care and is it cost effective?" The trial includes an internal pilot, health economic evaluation and process evaluation. The primary outcome is smoking cessation, self-reported as continuous smoking abstinence, biochemically validated by carbon monoxide monitoring with cut off of ≥8ppm. The sample size is 972 (486 in intervention and control) across 6 sites.
The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to determine whether exposure to vaping prevention advertisements (ads) reduce susceptibility to vaping among adolescents. Previous studies have been informative, but they have tended to be one-time experimental studies that do not replicate the repeated exposures to ads that people have in the real world. This study addresses this issue by repeatedly exposing participants to vaping prevention ads over time. Participants will be adolescents aged 13-17 who currently vape or who are susceptible to vaping. Participants will be randomly assigned to ad stimuli. They will be assigned to one of two The Real Cost trial arms-health harms or addiction-or to a control trial arm (probability of assignment is 1/3 for all trial arms). Participants in the study will take 4 online surveys over a 3-week period, once per week (At week 0, 1, 2, and 3). All participants will view randomized ad stimuli based on their trial arm and answer surveys items at each session.
Social media based intervention to support teens in their efforts to quit vaping.
Randomized controlled trial of acute use of electronic cigarette or tobacco cigarette on parameters of ventricular repolarization and inflammation/oxidative stress.
The primary aims of this pilot study were to (1) initially validate the applicability of a human laboratory model of relapse initially developed for smokers to e-cigarette users; (2) to use this human laboratory model of lapse behavior to examine the effects of acute psychological stress on vaping-lapse behavior among adults who are experienced, e-cigarette users.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of exposure to vape education messages on beliefs, perceptions, norms, and behaviors related to electronic vapor product use.
