简要总结
The goal of this clinical trial is to reveal the role and mechanism of orexin in nicotine addicts, compared to healthy control. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Whether nicotine addiction-related behaviors, including nicotine withdrawal symptoms, cue-induced increased psychological craving, and relapse behavior are related to plasma orexin levels ?
- What is the neural mechanism of the orexin system in the fMRI brain network?
Participants will be asked to do as followed:
- Day 1: Fill in the scale, test the concentration of exhaled CO, collect 5ml of blood from the vein, and take about 60 minutes.
- Day 1-3: Test and record the amount of smoking for 3 days, about 5 minutes.
- Day 4-5: Collect fMRI data, for about 60 minutes, perform extinction training, for about 30 minutes
- Day 6: Fill in the scale, test the concentration of CO in exhaled breath, collect 5ml of venous blood, test after subsidence and ignition test, and collect fMRI data, for about 60 minutes.
- Follow-up (2 weeks/4 weeks): Complete the follow-up on smoking craving and relapse by phone within 2 weeks, about 5 minutes, and complete the scale and collect fMRI data in the 4th week, about 60 minutes.
详细描述
Background: Smoking has always been a serious public health problem in my country. Nicotine is the main addictive ingredient in tobacco, the mechanism of nicotine addiction is not yet clear, and there is a lack of effective means to intervene in nicotine addiction. In recent years, the role of the orexin system in nicotine addiction has attracted great attention. Multiple preclinical studies have consistently found that orexin receptor antagonists have a significant intervention effect on nicotine addiction. Objective: This study focuses on the role and mechanism of orexin in nicotine addiction, and will reveal the neurobiological basis of orexin in nicotine addicts after withdrawal, and its potential as a biomarker for predicting and preventing relapse possible. Methods: This study will combine neuropsychology, neuroimaging, and detection of plasma orexin expression levels to explore whether nicotine addiction-related behaviors, including nicotine withdrawal symptoms, cue-induced increased psychological craving, and relapse behavior are related to plasma orexin Levels are associated, and further explore the neural mechanism of its brain network. Based on the detection of plasma orexin, it is of great theoretical and clinical significance to verify whether it is used as a peripheral blood biomarker of nicotine addiction and to establish an objective evaluation index of nicotine addiction. More specifically, participants need to finish following aims:
- Scale evaluation: Minnesota Tobacco Withdrawal Symptom Scale, Smoking Craving Scale, Short Smoking Craving Questionnaire, Nicotine Dependence Level Test to evaluate nicotine dependence and Smoking Intensity Index Scale, and record the subjects' smoking index (smoking Years × number of cigarettes smoked per day/20), and the smoking craving visual analog scale was used to indicate the degree of smoking craving. In addition, the Montreal Cognitive Scale, Barratt Impulsivity Scale, Self-Rating Anxiety Scale, Self-Rating Depression Scale, Hamilton Anxiety and Depression Scale and Pittsburgh Sleep Scale were collected for about 60 minutes.
- Behavioral extinction training: On the 4th and 5th days, combined with cue exposure therapy, nicotine addicts were repeatedly presented with nicotine cue/neutral cue picture stimulation for extinction training, which lasted for 25 minutes.
- Collect fMRI data: including resting state fMRI and task state fMRI on the 4th and 6th day, about 60 minutes.
- Detection of blood orexin level: 5ml of venous blood was collected on the 1st, 4th, and 6th day, and the plasma orexin-A level was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
- Time and method of follow-up: Follow up the subjects through outpatient clinics, telephone, WeChat, etc., record the relapse situation within 2 weeks after the intervention, record the number of cigarettes smoked every day, and return after 1 month for nicotine withdrawal Symptoms and smoking cravings were assessed, and DTI, resting state fMRI and task state fMRI data were collected for about 60 minutes.
