Smoking Cessation
A new study suggests that smoking may interfere with the brain's ability to recover from the effects of chronic alcohol abuse. Researchers found that after one month of sobriety, recovering alcoholics who smoked showed much less improvement in brain function and brain health than those who did not smoke. Comparing the brains of alcoholics who smoke with those who do not, the researchers used a form of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), called spectroscopic imaging, to measure two markers of brain cell function and health. The scans showed that after one month of abstinence from alcohol, significant positive increases were found in both the markers of brain function and health. However, the researchers did not find the same pattern or magnitude of recovery in recovering alcoholics who smoked. In fact, they found a decrease in some of these indicators of brain cell health and function in areas of the brain that deal with sensory processing and manipulating objects. Tests of the participants' brain function, including learning and memory, attention and concentration, and overall processing speed also revealed that nonsmokers' increases in these markers were associated with improvement in function. Researchers say these results are preliminary and further study is needed to confirm these results. If those results are confirmed, smoking cessation may need to be added to the treatment plan for recovering alcoholics.
