Smoking cessation treatment is now integrated into many health-care systems and a major research effort under way to improve current success rates. Until results from randomized clinical trials have been reported in different ways, leading problems of interpretation. We propose six standard criteria comprising the 'Russell Standard' (RS). These are applicable aids where participants defined target quit date there face-to-face contact with researchers or clinic staff, as follows. (1)...

Cassini has identified a geologically active province at the south pole of Saturn's moon Enceladus. In images acquired by Imaging Science Subsystem (ISS), this region is circumscribed chain folded ridges and troughs approximately 55 degrees S latitude. The terrain southward boundary distinguished its albedo color contrasts, elevated temperatures, extreme geologic youth, narrow tectonic rifts that exhibit coarse-grained ice coincide with hottest temperatures measured in region. Jets fine icy...

This paper updates the evidence base and key recommendations of Health Education Authority (HEA) smoking cessation guidelines for health professionals published in <i>Thorax</i> 1998. The strategy updating makes use updated Cochrane reviews supplemented by individual studies where appropriate. update contains additional detail concerning effectiveness interventions as well comments on issues relating to implementation. include clarification some important addressed only general terms...

Irradiation of 2,2-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)hexamethyltrisilane in hydrocarbon solution produces tetramesityldisilene, which can be isolated as a yellow-orange solid stable to room temperature and above the absence air. Like olefins carbon chemistry, tetramesityldisilene undergoes addition reactions across silicon-silicon double bond.

Devices and programs using digital technology to foster or support behavior change (digital interventions) are increasingly ubiquitous, being adopted for use in patient diagnosis treatment, self-management of chronic diseases, primary prevention. They have been heralded as potentially revolutionizing the ways which individuals can monitor improve their health behaviors care by improving outcomes, reducing costs, experience. However, we still mainly age promise rather than delivery....

Electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) are rapidly increasing in popularity. Two randomized controlled trials have suggested that e-cigarettes can aid smoking cessation, but there many factors could influence their real-world effectiveness. This study aimed to assess, using an established methodology, the effectiveness of when used cessation compared with nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) bought over-the-counter and unaided quitting general population.

Given the rapid increase in popularity of e-cigarettes and paucity associated longitudinal health-related data, need to assess potential risks long-term use is essential.
