Effects of Smoking Cues on Tobacco Craving Responses and the Reinforcing Efficacy of Cigarettes in Smokers With and Without Schizophrenia

15 août 2019 mis à jour par: MPRC, University of Maryland, Baltimore

In this study, we will compare cue-reactivity in smokers with and without schizophrenia and the influence of smoking cues on responding for cigarette puffs under a PR schedule of reinforcement. Given the high prevalence of smoking among individuals with schizophrenia, understanding some of the environmental factors that serve to maintain nicotine dependence is a critical step in improving smoking cessation treatment outcomes. Establishing and validating a laboratory model of cue-elicited responsivity and cigarette self- administration will allow the investigation of the efficacy of anti-craving medications in people with schizophrenia.

Specific Aims 1) To compare the effects of smoking versus neutral cues on craving, mood, and autonomic responsivity in smokers with schizophrenia and smokers without schizophrenia. 2) To compare the effects of smoking versus neutral cues on the reinforcing efficacy of tobacco cigarettes in smokers with schizophrenia and smokers without schizophrenia.

Outcome Measures During cue trials, primary measures include craving (TCQ-SF, VAS), mood (mood form, VAS), and autonomic (heart rate, blood pressure, skin conductance and temperature) responsivity. During self-administration trials, primary measures include breakpoint (final ratio completed), total number of responses, and number of cigarette puffs earned and taken. Secondary measures include baseline smoking history, mood form, TCQ-SF, CO, FTND, and urinary cotinine and 3-hydroxycotinine (3-HC).

The ratio of 3-HC/cotinine is a phenotypic biomarker of the rate of nicotine metabolism, which has been shown to be associated with level of nicotine dependence, various smoking behaviors, and treatment outcome (Ho & Tyndale, 2007). We will correlate the primary measures with the 3-HC/cotinine ratio to explore possible relationships for future study.

Outcome Measures During cue trials, primary measures include craving (TCQ-SF, VAS), mood (mood form, VAS), and autonomic (heart rate, blood pressure, skin conductance and temperature) responsivity. During self-administration trials, primary measures include breakpoint (final ratio completed), total number of responses, and number of cigarette puffs earned and taken. Secondary measures include baseline smoking history, mood form, TCQ-SF, CO, FTND, and urinary cotinine and 3-hydroxycotinine (3-HC).
In the smoking cue condition, a pack of the participants preferred brand of cigarettes, a lighter, and an ashtray will be under the tray cover. In the neutral cue condition, a pack of unsharpened pencils, a pencil sharpener, and a small notepad will be under the cover. When instructed, the participant will lift the cover on the tray. In the smoking cue condition, participants will take one cigarette out of the pack, light it without puffing, hold it for 1 minute, extinguish the cigarette, and replace the cover on the tray.
In the neutral cue condition, participants will take one pencil out of the pack, sharpen it, hold it for 1 minute as if to write on the notepad, and then replace the cover. Participants will complete the VAS during cue exposure and the TCQ-SF, VAS, and mood form immediately and 15 minutes after cue presentation; physiological measures will be recorded continuously.
