A vizsgálatról
Mit akar kideríteni a vizsgálat
The objective of this within-subject study is to test the effects of Episodic Future Thinking (EFT) and Low-intensity Focused Ultrasound (LIFU) interventions on the pain of subjects who have chronic pain and alcohol use disorder(s).
A vizsgálat 3 csoportja
- EFT and LIFUEgyéb csoport
Participants will generate positive future events they are looking forward to at several time points in the future (e.g., 2 weeks, 1 month, 3 months, 1 year, and 5 years). During the LIFU condition, participants will have an ultrasound transducer placed on their head, where brief ultrasound pulses are delivered to the desired brain area using the imaging collected during visit 1. A small amount of ultrasound gel will be placed on the face of the single-element focused ultrasound transducer. The transducer will then be fitted on the scalp over the desired brain area and held in place with a mechanical arm. Brief pulses (0.2 to 2 seconds; duty cycle 10 - 70%; pulse repetition frequency 100 - 1000 Hz) of low-intensity (\< 50 W/cm2 Isppa), sub-thermal ultrasound (0.3 - 0.5 MHz) will be delivered in order to determine the area of activation, as well as the patterns of brain activity generated.

Participants will generate positive recent past events that have happened to them at several time points in the previous day (e.g., 7pm-10pm, 4pm-7pm, 1pm-4pm, 10am-1pm, and 7am-10am). During Sham LIFU, the device will be set up identically as in real LIFU. However, the device will be turned off.
