Active clinical trials for "Substance-Related Disorders"

STRIDE2 is a longitudinal, non-randomized study of individuals living with HIV who are dependent on opioids. This study is funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (R01DA030768, Altice, PI; Taxman & Lawson, Co-PIs) and is being conducted by George Mason University, Yale University, and Howard University.

This pilot study evaluates the needs of opioid users for a device-based intervention for opioid overdoses. The results of this one-time short questionnaire will inform development of a novel naloxone delivery device.

The study aims (i) to identify which substances leading to hospitalizations at Mayotte are also called "chimique" and (ii) to correlate these substances with clinical pictures in order to favor a better approach of the treatments.

Drug abusers and addicts form a challenge to the anesthetist because of the added potential risks involved in the administration of anesthesia to this subset of patients, including potential unforeseen drug-drug interactions. In this study, we aimed at screening all patients scheduled for elective orthopedic or general surgeries at the Cairo University Teaching Hospital during a set period of time for the most commonly abused drugs in Egypt.

The primary objective of this study is to collect insights from first responders and military personnel on their need for, use of, and interest in physical and/or mental health medical marijuana or psychedelic-assisted therapy programs. These preliminary data will help to inform and guide the development of a larger patient-oriented study and the design of a clinical program geared towards enhancing therapy treatments for first responders and military personnel.

The present study registration relates to a quantitative sub-study of a larger mixed method study, including also a qualitative sub-study. Together, these investigations will provide complementary insights. The quantitative study is a follow-up study of close relatives (> 16 years) of patients in treatment for substance use disorder (SUD) who participated in a group-based 4-day psychoeducational program.

This Phase II SBIR project is designed to address the critical public health problem of bullying and cyberbullying among middle school age youth. The project involves developing and testing bullying and cyberbullying prevention materials, including interactive classroom sessions and corresponding serious games, based on the evidence-based substance abuse prevention approach called Life Skills Training. The product has the potential to fill a gap in the intervention tools currently available to schools that can be widely disseminated throughout the country using existing marketing and dissemination channels and decrease the adverse consequences of bullying and cyberbullying as well as substance abuse.

This is a 4-phase study to implement the NIDA (Common Data Elements) Common Data Elements (CDEs) in primary care settings. The study will be conducted at three adult primary care clinics, in two large health systems. Each phase will include deliverables essential to move to the next phase, and an independent Advisory Committee will review progress and make recommendations at each transition about how best to progress to each subsequent phase. Based on progress during earlier phases, the Advisory Committee may recommend expansion to additional clinics or health systems during the second part of Phase 4. Phase 2 prepares for implementation of the screening and CDS tools as part of routine clinical practice. A key component of this phase is tailoring the screening and CDS tools through an iterative process of usability testing and adaptation of their design. In the KTA framework, this phase corresponds to the 'select, tailor, and implement interventions' step. Simultaneously, investigators will plan for implementation in one clinic of the MSHS system by identifying clinical champions, educating clinic leadership and staff, and conducting a workflow analysis to identify barriers and facilitators of implementation.

Background: The way alcohol affects brain structure has been widely studied. But the way it affects all parts of the brain is still unknown. Researchers want to use magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans to study brain structure and function. They hope this will help them better understand changes that happen in brain regions during treatment of alcohol use disorders. Objectives: To study changes in the brain by using MRI in people with and without alcohol use disorders. To study how brain changes affect gait, balance, cognitive ability, and behavior. To see how the brain recovers when alcohol use stops. Eligibility: People with alcohol dependence who are currently hospitalized in a particular unit at NIH. Healthy volunteers 30 60 years old without an alcohol use disorder. Design: Participants will be screened under a separate protocol. Participants will give a urine sample for a drug test and pregnancy test at each study visit. They will also have to pass a breath alcohol test. At the first visit, participants will have an MRI. The scanner is a metal cylinder in a strong magnetic field. Participants will lie on a table that slides in and out of the cylinder. They will do behavior and memory tasks outside the scanner. They will have gait and balance tested. They will have to stand on both legs, stand on just one leg, and walk in a straight line. They will perform each task with eyes open, then with eyes closed. They will have tests of memory, thinking, and problem solving. Some participants will have a second visit. They will have another MRI and repeat some of the behavior and memory tasks.

The purpose is to validate the PRISM-5-Op as a measurement of prescription opioid substance use disorder.
