Behavioral Economic Assessment of Alcohol and Cigarette Demand in Smokers With Alcohol Use Disorder
Background and Objectives: Behavioral economic purchase tasks are widely used to assess drug demand in substance use disorder research. Comorbid alcohol use is common among cigarette smokers and associated with greater difficulty in quitting smoking. However, demand for alcohol and cigarettes in this population has not been fully characterized. The present study addressed this gap by examining alcohol and cigarette demand among treatment-seeking …
Pragmatic Application of the RE-AIM Framework to Evaluate the Implementation of Tobacco Cessation Programs Within NCI-Designated Cancer Centers
Tobacco cessation after cancer diagnosis leads to better patient outcomes. However, tobacco treatment services are frequently unavailable in cancer care settings, and multilevel implementation challenges can impede uptake of new programs. The National Cancer Institute (NCI) dedicated Cancer Moonshot funding through the Cancer Center Cessation Initiative (C3I) for NCI-Designated Cancer Centers to implement or enhance the implementation of tobacco …
Belief about Nicotine Modulates Subjective Craving and Insula Activity in Deprived Smokers
Little is known about the specific neural mechanisms through which cognitive factors influence craving and associated brain responses, despite the initial success of cognitive therapies in treating drug addiction. In this study, we investigated how cognitive factors such as beliefs influence subjective craving and neural activities in nicotine-addicted individuals using model-based functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and neuropharmacolog…
The influence of discrimination on smoking cessation among Latinos
The CHRNA3 rs578776 Variant is Associated with an Intrinsic Reward Sensitivity Deficit in Smokers
A compromised brain reward system has been postulated as a key feature of drug dependence. We examined whether several polymorphisms of genes found to regulate nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) and dopamine expression were related to an intrinsic reward sensitivity (IRS) deficit we previously identified among a subgroup of smokers using event-related potentials (ERPs). We examined genetic polymorphisms within the CHRNA5-A3-B4 gene cluster …
Mechanisms Linking Socioeconomic Disadvantage and BMI in Smokers
Findings indicate the need for interventions that target obesity among socioeconomically disadvantaged smokers and provide potential intervention targets for the prevention and treatment of obesity
Individual- and area-level unemployment influence smoking cessation among African Americans participating in a randomized clinical trial
Subjective social status predicts long-term smoking abstinence
The relationship between subjective social status (SSS), a person's perception of his/her relative position in the social hierarchy, and the ability to achieve long-term smoking abstinence during a specific quit attempt is unknown. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between SSS and long-term smoking abstinence among 421 racially/ethnically diverse smokers undergoing a specific quit attempt, as well as the interactive effect…
The Effect of Tobacco Outlet Density and Proximity on Smoking Cessation
Objectives. We examined the influence of tobacco outlet density and residential proximity to tobacco outlets on continuous smoking abstinence 6 months after a quit attempt. Methods. We used continuation ratio logit models to examine the relationships of tobacco outlet density and tobacco outlet proximity with biochemically verified continuous abstinence across weeks 1, 2, 4, and 26 after quitting among 414 adult smokers from Houston, Texas (33% n…
Financial Strain and Smoking Cessation Among Racially/Ethnically Diverse Smokers
Objectives. We evaluated the influence of financial strain on smoking cessation among Latino, African American, and Caucasian smokers of predominantly low socioeconomic status. Methods. Smokers enrolled in a smoking cessation study (N = 424) were followed from 1 week prequit through 26 weeks postquit. We conducted a logistic regression analysis to evaluate the association between baseline financial strain and smoking abstinence at 26 weeks postqu…
The Influence of Subjective Social Status on Vulnerability to Postpartum Smoking Among Young Pregnant Women
Objectives. Associations between subjective social status, a subjective measure of socioeconomic status, and predictors of risk for postpartum smoking were examined among 123 pregnant women (aged 18–24 years) who stopped smoking because of pregnancy. The goal was to identify how subjective social status might influence the risk for postpartum smoking and to elucidate targets for intervention. Methods. We used multiple regression equations to exam…
The Effects of Stress and Smoking on Catecholaminergic and Cardiovascular Response
In this study, the authors evaluated the combined impact of smoking and stress on catecholaminergic and cardiovascular reactivity in disease-free adult smokers. Smokers participated in 2 laboratory sessions, including a baseline and a mental-stressor phase (reaction time and mental math), once while smoking-deprived overnight and once while nondeprived. Nonsmoking controls also participated in an identical laboratory session, without the smoking …
An evaluation of videotaped vignettes for smoking cessation and relapse prevention during pregnancy: The Very Important Pregnant Smokers (Vips) program
1This may be a particularly important time to focus on innovations in self help technology for pregnant smokers. Printed materials are the major media by which current self help interventions are delivered, and in the general population their overall eVectiveness has been shown to be similar to no treatment control conditions. 1 Moreover, currently available treatments for pregnant smokers have often emphasised provider delivered counselling but …
Smoking Cessation 3: Needed Healthcare Policy Changes
Smoking is the primary preventable cause of mortality and morbidity in our society, killing more than 430,000 people each year--more than 1,000 a day. Despite this deadly record, the treatment of nicotine dependence has not been integrated into routine medical care. Although professionals from many healthcare fields can be effective providers of smoking cessation treatment, relatively few actually advise patients to quit smoking; and even fewer a…
