Tobacco Images Choice and its Association With Craving and Dependence in People Who Smoke Cigarettes.

Introduction: Increased salience of drug-related cues over nondrug reinforcers can drive drug use and contribute to tobacco use disorder (TUD). An important scientific and clinical goal is to effectively measure this elevated drug-seeking behavior in TUD. However, most TUD assessments rely on self-reported cravings and cigarette consumption, not providing an objective measure of the impact of drug cues on biasing behavior toward drugs.

Smokers with higher positive or negative urgency have lower rates of smoking cessation success 12 months after a quit attempt.

Impulsivity dimensions have been shown to be associated with smoking status and tobacco use disorder severity. However, it is important to determine the specific impulsivity traits associated with smoking relapse. This study aimed at investigating the associations between impulsivity traits and smoking cessation success among adult smokers at 12 months after a quit attempt.

Insomnia and parasomnia induced by validated smoking cessation pharmacotherapies and electronic cigarettes: a network meta-analysis.

We aim to assess the relationship between validated smoking cessation pharmacotherapies and electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) and insomnia and parasomnia using a systematic review and a network meta-analysis. A systematic search was performed until August 2022 in the following databases: PUBMED, COCHRANE, CLINICALTRIAL. Randomized controlled studies against placebo or validated therapeutic smoking cessation methods and e-cigarettes in adult smokers without unstable or psychiatric comorbidity were included.

Tobacco Images Choice and Its Association with Craving and Dependence in Cigarette Smokers.

Duration of the effectiveness of nicotine electronic cigarettes on smoking cessation and reduction: Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: The success of pharmacotherapies for smoking cessation in real-life remains limited, with a significant number of long-term relapses. Despite first promising results, the duration of the effectiveness of electronic cigarettes is still unknown. Our objective was to assess the duration of the effectiveness of electronic cigarettes on smoking cessation and reduction in daily smokers.

Effectiveness of drugs acting on adrenergic receptors in the treatment for tobacco or alcohol use disorders: systematic review and meta-analysis.

Aim: To assess the efficacy of drugs directly acting on alpha- and beta-adrenergic receptors in the treatment of patients suffering from tobacco or alcohol use disorder.

Methods: Using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, studies were identified through PUBMED, EMBASE, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and clinicaltrial.gov.

Motivations for using electronic cigarettes in young adults: A systematic review.

The most common reasons why adults use e-cigarettes are to stop or reduce tobacco smoking. However, it is unclear if this reason is evenly distributed between young and older adults. Objectives: describe the motivations for e-cigarette use amongst young adults aged 18-25 and compare the reasons for using e-cigarettes of people who currently or formerly used tobacco products to those who had never smoked tobacco prior e-cigarette use.

Efficacy of phloroglucinol for the treatment of pain of gynaecologic or obstetrical origin: a systematic review of literature of randomised controlled trials.

Purpose: Antispasmodics like phloroglucinol are commonly used to alleviate pain. Various authorities recommend the use of this drug for conditions such as dysmenorrhoea, threatened abortion or labour pains. The goal was to carry out a systematic review analysing the existing data concerning the efficacy of phloroglucinol to treat pain in obstetrical or gynaecologic cases.

[Relevancy and efficacy of advanced nursing practice in private practice to promote smoking cessation].

Raising awareness of the harmful effects of smoking on health and supporting smokers who wish to quit are important public health challenges. The involvement of nurses in these specific healthcare actions targeting the motivation to change seems to be a promising approach as revealed by a study summarised in this article.

Efficacy of acetylleucine in vertigo and dizziness: a systematic review of randomised controlled trials.

Purpose: To assess the efficacy of acetylleucine to improve or stop an attack of vertigo and dizziness (vertigo/dizziness).

Methods: Systematic review by 2 independent reviewers. Consultation of the Medline, Cochrane and ClinicalTrials.

Are patients' pejorative representations of buprenorphine associated with their level of addiction and of misuse?

Background: In France, buprenorphine is at once the most widely prescribed and the most commonly misused opioid maintenance treatment (OMT). Unlike other medicines, it is seldom prescribed as a generic drug. Several studies have underlined the influence of the patient's representations when choosing brand-name rather than generic forms.

Efficacy of phloroglucinol for treatment of abdominal pain: a systematic review of literature and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials versus placebo.

Aim: Phloroglucinol is a musculotropic anti-spasmodic drug. It is frequently prescribed in many European countries with a considerable cost for health services. The purpose of this study was to review the existing randomised controlled trials (RCT) comparing the efficacy of phloroglucinol treating abdominal pain versus placebo.

[Efficacy and security of electronic cigarette for tobacco harm reduction: Systematic review and meta-analysis].

Context: Smoking is the first cause of preventable death in France and in the world. Without help, it was shown that 80 % of smokers who try to quit smoking relapse after one month with a low long-term success rate. Smoking reduction can concern smokers who did not want to quit or failed in their attempt to weaning.
