Abstract
Background
Tobacco use represents a significant public health burden, being especially harmful for smokers with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Effective smoking cessation interventions are required for this vulnerable population. The goal is to describe a study protocol of a randomized controlled trial (RCT) aimed at analyzing the effectiveness and efficiency of a multicomponent smoking cessation intervention for T2DM smokers, including a training protocol on healthy lifestyle habits and self-management of T2DM (DiMe-SALUD2 project).
Methods
This RCT will assign participants to: (1) Control Group (n = 30), including a brief psychoeducation advice about smoking cessation; (2) Cognitive-behavioral treatment (CBT) for smoking cessation (n = 30), based on a multicomponent program implemented in group-based sessions over an eight-week period; and (3) CBT plus DiMeSALUD2 protocol (n = 30), which will develop an additional psychoeducational protocol specifically designed to improve healthy lifestyle habits. Participants will be assessed at baseline, post-treatment and several follow-ups (1-, 6- and 12-months). Primary outcomes will include smoking abstinence (24-h point prevalence abstinence at post-treatment and 7-day point prevalence at follow-ups) and smoking continuous abstinence. Secondary outcomes will include treatment retention, changes in smoking patterns and nicotine dependence, as well as the impact on T2DM clinical variables, mental health, and quality of life.
Discussion
The DiMeSALUD2 program could assist T2DM smokers in quitting tobacco use and improving their overall quality of life. This project will help incorporating improvements in routine clinical practice with T2DM patients, offering a smoking cessation program adapted to their specific needs.

期刊介绍:
Contemporary Clinical Trials Communications is an international peer reviewed open access journal that publishes articles pertaining to all aspects of clinical trials, including, but not limited to, design, conduct, analysis, regulation and ethics. Manuscripts submitted should appeal to a readership drawn from a wide range of disciplines including medicine, life science, pharmaceutical science, biostatistics, epidemiology, computer science, management science, behavioral science, and bioethics. Contemporary Clinical Trials Communications is unique in that it is outside the confines of disease specifications, and it strives to increase the transparency of medical research and reduce publication bias by publishing scientifically valid original research findings irrespective of their perceived importance, significance or impact. Both randomized and non-randomized trials are within the scope of the Journal. Some common topics include trial design rationale and methods, operational methodologies and challenges, and positive and negative trial results. In addition to original research, the Journal also welcomes other types of communications including, but are not limited to, methodology reviews, perspectives and discussions. Through timely dissemination of advances in clinical trials, the goal of Contemporary Clinical Trials Communications is to serve as a platform to enhance the communication and collaboration within the global clinical trials community that ultimately advances this field of research for the benefit of patients.
