  • Offering free NRT through a tobacco quitline

    David Tinkelman, Steven M Wilson et al.ARTICLETobacco Control2007

    Offering free NRT through a state quitline is an effective means of increasing quitline utilisation and improving quit rates

  • Tobacco Cessation and Weight Loss

    Saul Shiffman, Christine T Sweeney et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Health Behavior2006

  • Characteristics of selectors of nicotine replacement therapy

    Saul Shiffman, Michael E Di Marino et al.ARTICLETobacco Control2005

    Smokers who elect to use NRT differ from non-NRT users in ways that predispose them to failure in cessation. Controlling for smoking rate and time to first cigarette does not eliminate these differences, even among light smokers. These differences must be considered when comparing the effectiveness of NRT among samples of smokers who self select their treatment and are likely to bias such outcome comparisons

  • Test of “Light” cigarette counter-advertising using a standard test of advertising effectiveness

    Saul Shiffman, Steven L Burton et al.ARTICLETobacco Control2001

    Addressing smokers' sensory perceptions of Light cigarettes and presenting this information in an impartial way is likely to be an effective communication strategy for counter-marketing Light cigarettes

  • Filter ventilation and nicotine content of tobacco in cigarettes from Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States

    Lynn T Kozlowski, Nidhi Mehta et al.ARTICLETobacco Control1998

    Filter ventilation appears to be the predominant method for reducing machine-smoked yields of tar, nicotine, and CO in three countries. However, some brands contain about twice as much nicotine (total content or percent nicotine) as do others, indicating that tobacco types or blends and tobacco castings can be used to manipulate nicotine content and nicotine delivery of cigarettes

  • Few smokers know their cigarettes have filter vents

  • Smokers are unaware of the filter vents now on most cigarettes

    Lynn T Kozlowski, Margaret Goldberg et al.ARTICLETobacco Control1996

    Smokers are generally unaware of the presence and function of filter vents-a major design feature subject to behavioural blocking by smokers and now present on most cigarettes in the United States. Smokers and policy-makers need to be informed about the presence of filter vents and how vent blocking increases tar and nicotine yields from ostensibly very low-yield cigarettes
