结局指标
主要结局
Self-reported Stress as Assessed by the Visual Analog Scale (VAS)
时间窗: 7 days
The Visual Analog Scale is scored from 0-10, with 0 being no stress, 10 being extreme stress.
Self-reported Sleep as Assessed by the PITTSBURGH SLEEP QUALITY INDEX (PSQI)
时间窗: 7 days
Each component score of the PSQI ranges from 0 to 3, with 3 indicating the greatest dysfunction or disturbance. The seven component scores are then summed to obtain a global PSQI score, which ranges from 0 to 21, higher score indicating a worse outcome. The global PSQI score is reported.
Resting State Alpha Power as Assessed by EEG
时间窗: 7 days
EEG will be used to assess electrical activity in the brain, specifically, to assess alpha power, which is the level of activity in the 8-12Hz frequency range. Resting state EEG means that EEG will be assessed during wakeful rest. Alpha power will be assessed in each of the 4 brain lobes (frontal, central, parietal, and occipital) for 3 minutes during eyes closed wakeful rest and also for 3 minutes during eyes open wakeful rest. Alpha Power will be reported in microvolts squared (μV²). Higher alpha power indicates more sleepiness and lower alpha power indicates less sleepiness
Amplitude of the Late Positive Potential (LPP) in Microvolts in Response to Visual Stimuli on the Picture Viewing Task as Assessed by the EEG
时间窗: 7 days
The Picture Viewing Task will be used to elicit the late positive potential (LPP), reflecting the motivational salience of a stimulus. During this task, participants are asked to view a slideshow of images including pleasant, unpleasant, neutral, and Methamphetamine-related images. The amplitude of the LPP in microvolts in response to visual stimuli is reported.
Self-reported Stress as Assessed by the Stress Subscale of the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21)
时间窗: 7 days
The Stress Subscale of the Depression, Anxiety and Stress scale (DASS-21) assesses stress levels. Total score on the DASS-21 stress subscale ranges from 0 to 21, with a higher score indicating greater stress.
Average Sleep Time Per Night Measured Nightly Via Actigraphy Watch Over 7 Nights
时间窗: 7 days
The average sleep time per night (averaged over 7 days) will be reported.
Average Time Awake After Sleep Onset Measured Nightly Via Actigraphy Watch Over 7 Nights
时间窗: 7 days
The average time awake after sleep onset per night (averaged over 7 days) will be reported.
Change of Cortisol Level
时间窗: baseline, about 32 minutes after the start of the cold pressor task
During the cold pressor task (CPT), participants will submerge their dominant arm in an ice-water bath for up to 2 minutes. Saliva samples will be collected before and after the CPT, and cortisol levels in the saliva samples will be assessed. The change in cortisol level will be reported as \[(cortisol level at post cold pressor task) - (cortisol level pre cold pressor task)\].
次要结局
- Number of Participants Who Had Side Effects(7 days)
- Depression as Assessed by the Beck's Depression Inventory (BDI)Scale(7 days)
- Number of Days of Methamphetamine Use as Assessed by the Time Line Follow Back (TLFB) Method(7 days)
- Number of Participants Positive for Methamphetamine Use as Assessed by the Urine Drug Screen (UDS)(Day 7)
- Suicidal Ideation and Behavior as Assessed by the COLUMBIA-SUICIDE SEVERITY RATING SCALE (CSSR)(7 days)
