地塞米松靶向酒精渴望的压力和免疫系统机制

2026年9月28日 更新者:Helen Fox、Stony Brook University

地塞米松针对酒精使用障碍 (AUD) 患者早期戒酒期间的压力和免疫系统变化

This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, proof of concept laboratory study to recruit N=70 (35 Males / 35 Females) non-treatment seeking, heavy drinkers with alcohol use disorder (AUD). It is hypothesized that randomization to 1.5mgs dexamethasone versus placebo will decrease alcohol craving during stress by decreasing basal cortisol, increasing anti-inflammatory cytokine levels and potentially normalizing the immune response to stress.

Alcohol craving as assessed using subjective report following stress exposure
大体时间:Change from baseline to +5 minutes following stress exposure

The 8-item Alcohol Urges Questionnaire (AUQ) will be used to measure alcohol craving. There are 8 items, each with a Likert scale response from 1 to 7 (1: Strongly Disagree, 7: Strongly Agree). Total possible score of 56. The higher the score the higher the alcohol craving
