- Sex differences in smoking cessation: a retrospective cohort study in a psychosocial care unit in Brazil(2023) GUIMARAES-PEREIRA, Bruna Beatriz Sales; MARTINS-DA-SILVA, Anderson Sousa; LIMA, Danielle Ruiz; CARVALHO, Carlos Felipe Cavalcanti; LORETO, Aline Rodrigues; GALVAO, Lucas Pequeno; FRALLONARDO, Fernanda Piotto; ISMAEL, Flavia; TORALES, Julio; VENTRIGLIO, Antonio; ANDRADE, Arthur Guerra de; CASTALDELLI-MAIA, Joao MauricioIntroduction: Despite the results of epidemiological and psychometric studies reporting comparable levels of tobacco dependence among males and females, some clinical studies have detected disparities. Some smoking cessation studies based on clinical setting programs reported poorer outcomes among women than men.Methods: This retrospective cohort study aimed to compare treatment success and retention between men and women on a smoking cessation program (n=1,014) delivered at a CAPS-AD unit in Brazil. The psychological intervention lasted 6 weeks for each group of 15 patients. Each patient had to participate in weekly group cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) sessions and individual medical appointments during this period. These appointments were focused on the possibility of prescribing pharmacological treatment (i.e., nicotine replacement therapy, bupropion, or nortriptyline) as adjuvants to group therapy.Results: The women had lower smoking severity at baseline, more clinical symptoms, and lower prevalence of alcohol and drug use disorders and were older than the men. Females had significantly higher levels of success (36.6% vs. 29.7%) and retention (51.6% vs. 41.4%) than males. Sensitivity analysis showed that female gender was significantly associated with both retention and success, among those without drug use disorders only.Conclusion: Depending on the smoking cessation setting (i.e., low and middle-income countries and mental health and addiction care units), females can achieve similar and even higher quit rates than males. Previous drug use disorder was an important confounding variable in the gender outcomes analyses. Future studies should try to replicate these positive smoking cessation effects of CBT-based group therapy plus pharmacotherapy in women.
- The effect of a real-world intervention for smoking cessation in Adults with and without comorbid psychiatric and substance use disorders: A one-year follow-up study(2022) LIMA, Danielle Ruiz; GUIMARAES-PEREIRA, Bruna Beatriz Sales; MANNES, Zachary L.; CARVALHO, Carlos Felipe Cavalcanti; LORETO, Aline Rodrigues; DAVANSO, Lucas Carvalho; FRALLONARDO, Fernanda Piotto; ISMAEL, Flavia; ANDRADE, Arthur Guerra De; CASTALDELLI-MAIA, Joao MauricioThis study evaluated short-term abstinence and prolonged abstinence following a real-world intervention for smoking cessation in a sample of 1,213 adults with nicotine dependence only (ND), nicotine dependence and past history of another substance use disorder (ND-SUD), nicotine dependence and a non-substance use mental health disorder (ND-MD), or nicotine dependence and comorbid substance use disorder and mental health disorder (ND-SUMD). Participants received six sessions of group Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and pharmacotherapy. Abstinence was assessed following completion of treatment and at 12-month follow-up. Logistic regression and survival analyses were performed. Participants who were lost to follow-up were included as censored and baseline differences were used as covariates in multivariate analyses. Rates of short-term abstinence and pro-longed abstinence were significantly different between ND and ND-SUMD (20.9% versus 36.5%; 14.9% versus 22.4%, respectively). Among participants with follow-up, 37.7% were abstinent at 12-month. Diagnostic group was not associated with abstinence at 12-month follow-up after adjusting for nicotine dependence severity, which was associated with lower likelihood of abstinence (HR=1.11;95%CI:1.03-1.19). CBT plus pharmaco-therapy had a positive effect on smoking cessation among the participants in this study. Special attention should be given to adults with more severe nicotine dependence and comorbid psychiatric and substance use disorders.
- Intention to Drive After Drinking Among Medical Students: Contributions of the Protection Motivation Theory(2017) AMARAL, Ricardo Abrantes; MALBERGIER, Andre; LIMA, Danielle Ruiz; SANTOS, Verena Castellani Vitor; GORENSTEIN, Clarice; ANDRADE, Arthur Guerra deObjective: The aim of this study was to investigate whether cognitive variables proposed by the protection motivation theory (PMT) were predictive of occasional and frequent intention to drive after drinking in medical students. Methods: One hundred fifty-five students attending preclinical years at a Medical School in Sao Paulo, Brazil, participated in the study. They were asked about their last month substance use, history of drinking and driving, including driving after binge drinking, and risk perceptions based on a self-report questionnaire with statements about protection motivation, threat, and coping appraisals from the PMT model. Results: Fifty-two students (33%) had previous experience of driving after drinking during the last year, and 54 students (35%) reported intention to drive after drinking within the next year. Regression analysis showed that higher scores in perception of personal vulnerability to risks were associated with occasional and frequent intention to continue pursuing this particular behavior. Poorer evaluations about short-term consequences of alcohol consumption and cognitions regarding external rewards were significantly associated with reported intention to continue driving after drinking. Conclusions: Considering the social and health impact of alcohol-impaired behaviors, our findings suggest the need of interventional efforts focused in increasing students' awareness about the negative consequences of drinking and driving aiming to enhance their motivation towards more adaptive behaviors.
