Filter by:Smoking is the leading cause of preventable death in the United States. An FDA-mandated reduction in the nicotine content of cigarettes might reduce the health burden of tobacco by reducing the prevalence of smoking. The proposed project will test the impact of nicotine reduction on smoking behavior and smoke exposure in a setting where participants are restricted from using their usual brand cigarettes.
This study evaluates the efficacy of scaling and root planing with and without adjunct antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) in the treatment of chronic periodontitis (CP) among cigarette-smokers and never-smokers.
Lung cancer screening programs are still discussed in Europe today, and one of the concern is radiation due to iterative CT. The aim of this monocentric, prospective, non randomized study is to compare an ultra low dose chest CT (approaching a two views X ray) versus a standard low dose chest CT for ≥4mm lung nodules detection, and secondary for lung nodule characterization and smoking associated findings (emphysema, bronchial abnormalities and coronary calcifications).
To determine the rate and amount of nicotine uptake with 10-minute ad libitum use of five different marketed electronic cigarettes, or one combustible cigarette (CC). Furthermore, to measure overall product liking by subjects to assess potential willingness to seek out the Electronic Cigarette (EC) again in the future.
This study will examine the level of toxicity of e-cigarette use compared to smokers and nonsmokers including inflammation markers, toxicant and carcinogen exposure. Additionally, the study will look at the effect of varying voltage levels for e-cigarette users.
This study will compare nicotine delivery and smoking behaviour in healthy subjects using several combustible cigarette prototypes containing different ingredients which are commonly used in the European Union.
The aim of this study was to investigate whether cigarette smoking had any impact on the clinical outcomes 1 year after active periodontal treatment. Eligible for the study were 5680 individuals 20-85 years, referred to the specialised clinic for periodontal treatment at Gävle County Hospital between the years of 1980 and 2015. Before examination, all individuals filled in a questionnaire regarding their medical health, medication and smoking habits. Excluded were edentulous individuals and where clinical data 1-year after active treatment, or smoking habits were missing (n=1453). Complete data for analyses was available for 4227 individuals.
The 2-year research plan will test the Put It Out Project (POP) in a pilot randomized trial (N=120) compared to TSP and two historical control conditions. Participants will be young adults who smoke, identify as sexual or gender minorities, and use Facebook. The primary outcome will be biochemically verified 7-day abstinence from smoking at 3 and 6 months. Secondary outcomes will be a quit attempt (y/n), stage of change, and thoughts about tobacco abstinence at 3 and 6 mos.
The current study aimed to test a culturally tailored program designed to help Pacific Islanders (PIs) between the ages of 18 and 30 quit smoking cigarettes by using a randomized controlled trial design with one intervention group and one control group.
To determine the rate and amount of nicotine uptake with 10-minute ad libitum use of four different marketed electronic cigarettes. Furthermore, to measure overall product liking by subjects to assess potential willingness to seek out the Electronic Cigarette (EC) again in the future.
