Pairing Neutral Cues with Alcohol Intoxication: New Findings in Executive and Attention Networks [PDF]
Rationale: Alcohol-associated stimuli capture attention, yet drinkers differ in the precise stimuli that become paired with intoxication. Objectives: Extending our prior work to examine the influence of alcoholism risk factors, we paired abstract ...

A Roadmap for Integrating Neuroscience into Addiction Treatment:A Consensus of the Neuroscience Interest Group of the International Society of Addiction Medicine [PDF]
Although there is general consensus that altered brain structure and function underpins addictive disorders, clinicians working in addiction treatment rarely incorporate neuroscience-informed approaches into their practice.

Individual differences in food-cue reactivity [PDF]
Previous studies have suggested that brief exposure to the sight and smell of food can elicit a momentary increase in desire to eat that food and can stimulate food intake. This thesis sought to explore individual differences in this 'food-cue reactivity.' Specifically, it aimed to explore associations between reactivity to food cues and i) dietary ...

An fMRI study of nicotine-deprived smokers' reactivity to smoking cues during novel/exciting activity. [PDF]
Engaging in novel/exciting ("self-expanding") activities activates the mesolimbic dopamine pathway, a brain reward pathway also associated with the rewarding effects of nicotine. This suggests that self-expanding activities can potentially substitute for

Neurobiologische Korrelate der Belohnungs- und Suchtreizverarbeitung im Rahmen der Alkoholabhängigkeit und deren pharmakologische Modifikation mit Baclofen [PDF]
Hintergrund: In der Erforschung alkoholbezogener psychischer Störungen konnte festgestellt werden, dass eine veränderte neurobiologische Verarbeitung des mesokortikolimbischen dopaminergen Systems, des sogenannten Belohnungssystems, vorliegt.

Effects of environmental tobacco smoke exposure on brain functioning in never‐smoking adolescents
Introduction Brain functioning, as indexed by event‐related potentials (ERPs) representing smoking cue reactivity, inhibitory control, and reward processing, has been found to be compromised in smokers.

Effects of irritability on craving before and after cue exposure in abstinent alcoholic inpatients: Experimental data on subjective response and heart rate [PDF]
Objective: Irritability is often linked with problem drinking. The aim of this study is to examine the possible influence of irritability on craving induced by a cue-exposure paradigm.

Cue reactivity in cannabis-dependent adolescents. [PDF]
The authors measured event-related potentials with a craving manipulation to investigate the neural correlates of drug cue reactivity in 13 adolescents who are cannabis dependent (CD; ages 14-17). The P300 responses to marijuana (MJ) pictures (MJ-P300) and control pictures (C-P300) were assessed after handling neutral objects and again after handling ...

Repeated experience with artificial sweeteners increases food consumption and body weight gain in rats. Saccharin consumption may reduce the conditioned satiety response to sweet-tasting food. Rats were trained to press a lever to obtain sucrose for five

Background: Craving is the subjective experience of desire for specific drugs. Lack of reliability and untested construct validity are limiting factors for the existing questionnaires to assess craving.
