Very Light Daily Smoking in Young Adults: Relationships Between Nicotine Dependence and Lapse.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionVery light daily smoking is increasingly common among young adults. Evidence suggests that levels of nicotine dependence vary significantly among young adults who engage in very light daily smoking. However, the links between dependence and clinically relevant outcomes (eg, lapse) in this population remain unclear. The goal of this study was to address this gap by evaluating how well different nicotine dependence scales predict lapse behavior among very light daily smoking young adults. AIMS AND
methodsVery light daily smokers (1-5 cigarettes/day) aged 18-25 participated in an initial laboratory session, during which nicotine dependence was assessed using four commonly used measures: the Fagerstrӧm Test for Cigarette Dependence (FTCD), the Hooked On Nicotine Checklist (HONC), the Transdisciplinary Tobacco Use Research Centers (TTURC) Nicotine Dependence Inventory, and the Wisconsin Inventory of Smoking Dependence Motives (WISDM). After a baseline period, eligible participants (n = 40) completed a 10-day abstinence incentive period in which they attempted to refrain from smoking to earn monetary rewards. Cox proportional hazards models were used to test whether dependence predicted days to first lapse.
resultsFTCD scores significantly predicted days to lapse, as did scores on the FTCD item assessing time to first cigarette of the day (TTFC). No other dependence measures predicted time to lapse. Both the FTCD and TTFC continued to independently predict time to lapse after controlling for smoking frequency and duration.
conclusionsThe FTCD may be a particularly useful tool for capturing clinically meaningful variability in nicotine dependence among young adults who engage in very light daily smoking. IMPLICATIONS: This is the first study to directly link self-reported nicotine dependence with the ability to achieve and maintain abstinence among very light daily smoking young adults. The results may aid clinicians in selecting among variable measures of nicotine dependence when assessing and treating this population.
