N-acetylcysteine (1,200 mg twice a day) was added to contingency management intervention and very brief weekly cessation counseling in an 8-week, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial for treatment-seeking cannabis-dependent adolescents. The rate of negative urine cannabinoid tests 41% the group, compared 27% placebo group. At posttreatment follow-up visit, 19% group were negative, 10% Adverse events not common included vivid dreams heartburn.

Smokers not currently interested in quitting (N = 616) were randomized to receive telephone-based (a) reduction counseling plus nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) brief advice quit, (b) motivational advice, or (c) no treatment. More smokers the (43%) and (51%) conditions made a 24-hr quit attempt over 6 months than no-treatment condition (16%; p < .01), but 2 active did differ (p > .05). Similarly, 18%, 23%, 4% of each abstinent (7-day point prevalence) at .01). Results indicate smoking...
There is evidence that women may be less successful when attempting to quit smoking than men. One potential contributory cause of this gender difference differential craving and stress reactivity smoking‐ negative affect/stress‐related cues. The present human laboratory study investigated the effects on affect/stress cues by exposing nicotine dependent (n = 37) men 53) smokers two active cue types, each with an associated control cue: (1) in vivo neutral cues, (2) imagery‐based script a...
<h3>Background</h3>Rates of smoking cessation have not changed in a decade, accentuating the need for novel approaches to prompt quit attempts.<h3>Methods</h3>Within nationwide randomized clinical trial (N = 849) induce further attempts and cessation, smokers currently unmotivated were practice attempt (PQA) alone or nicotine replacement therapy (hereafter referred as therapy), sampling within context PQA. Following 6-week intervention period, participants followed up 6 months assess...
As summarised in the most recent Cochrane review, few clinical trials on e-cigarettes are largely focused smoking cessation. We aimed to determine naturalistic uptake, use, and impact of among adults who may or not want stop smoking.
The pattern and trajectory of dual use are critical to differentiating it as a health benefit vs. harm. Based within large, naturalistic randomized controlled trial e-cigarette in the U.S., adults who smoke were given 1-month sample tank-style they wish (n=427) or not (n=211). Analyses restricted participants from group became users by one month (DU; n=315) control exclusively used combustible cigarettes (EUCC; n=182). Primary outcomes based on changes cigarette smoking (cigarettes per day;...
Background: As genetic testing for health risk becomes increasingly available, it important to study the prospective impact of on modifiable behavior. Purpose: This examines alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency, a condition that usually results in emphysema individuals exposed cigarette smoke. We evaluated whether AAT testing, performed home and with minimal contact (reading materials including advice cessation), quit attempts abstinence. Methods: Identified smokers (N = 199) from larger...
<h3>Importance</h3> Recent research on addiction-related memory processes suggests that protracted extinction training following brief cue-elicited retrieval (ie, retrieval-extinction [R-E] training) can attenuate/eradicate the ability of cues to elicit learned behaviors. One study reported craving among detoxified heroin addicts was substantially attenuated R-E and through 6-month follow-up. <h3>Objective</h3> To build these impressive findings by examining whether could attenuate...
Studies examining the association between menstrual cycle phases and smoking behavior in women have yielded mixed results. The purpose of this study was to elucidate associations ovarian hormones by directly measuring hormone levels obtaining a laboratory assessment behaviors. Four hypotheses were tested: Increased will be associated with (1) low absolute estradiol progesterone; (2) decreasing (i.e., dynamic changes in) (3) lower ratios progesterone estradiol; (4) higher progesterone. Female...
The primary goal of this pilot feasibility study was to examine the effects Mindfulness-Oriented Recovery Enhancement (MORE), a behavioral treatment grounded in dual-process models derived from cognitive science, on frontostriatal reward processes among cigarette smokers. Healthy adult (N = 13; mean (SD) age 49 ± 12.2) smokers provided informed consent participate 10-week testing MORE versus comparison group (CG). All participants underwent two fMRI scans: pre-tx and after 8-weeks MORE....
Most studies of electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) compare self-selected users versus nonusers. The few randomized to date generally support a positive impact on reducing smoking behavior, but these are focused guided ENDS use. This study presents randomized, naturalistic trial with prospective outcomes uptake and behavioral changes in smoking.
