Systematic review and meta-analysis investigating nicotine, cotinine, and carbon monoxide exposures in people who both smoke and use nicotine replacement therapy
CONCLUSION: People who smoke but who also use NRT reported smoking less heavily than when solely smoking, and when NRT was used as 'preloading' this reported smoking reduction was biochemically confirmed. There was no evidence concurrent smoking and NRT use resulted in greater nicotine exposure than smoking.PMID:37479301 | DOI:10.3399/bjgp23X734241

Smoking reduction using electronic nicotine delivery systems in combination with nicotine skin patches
CONCLUSIONS: The presence of nicotine in ENDS was associated with a large reduction in smoking. Additional studies will be needed to determine whether there may be additive effects of nicotine ENDS and nicotine patches on smoking abstinence.PMID:37458789 | DOI:10.1007/s00213-023-06401-y

Differences in biobehavioral measures of cigarette smoking by depression symptomology
CONCLUSION: Increased smoke exposure, greater withdrawal symptoms and urges to smoke, and anticipation of negative affect relief among smokers with subsyndromal depression symptoms suggest that depression symptoms need not reach syndromal levels to alter smoking-related outcomes.PMID:37437421 | DOI:10.1016/j.addbeh.2023.107800

The Effects of Scheduled Smoking Reduction and Precessation Nicotine Replacement Therapy on Smoking Cessation: Randomized Controlled Trial With Compliance
CONCLUSIONS: Scheduled smoking, when combined with precessation use of NRT, can result in significantly higher abstinence rates than usual care (abrupt quitting with NRT), particularly in the early postquit phase (2 and 4 weeks after cessation) when smokers are compliant with the procedure. Scheduled smoking also produced a better overall quitting experience by reducing symptoms of nicotine withdrawal and craving, in comparison with usual care, which could encourage future quit attempts. Studies in this area should focus on the use of counseling or other methods to improve adherence.PMID:37338956 | DOI:10.2196/39487

Energy and emission properties of burley tobacco stalk briquettes and its combinations with other biomass as promising replacement for coal
Arh Hig Rada Toksikol. 2023 Apr 4;74(1):61-68. doi: 10.2478/aiht-2023-74-3630. Print 2023 Mar 1.ABSTRACTAs a tobacco producer, Serbia has to deal with large amounts of leftover tobacco stalks after harvesting. One option for this type of biomass is to burn it, but burning is not encouraged in Serbia, since the levels of its combustion products have not been investigated yet. The aim of this study was therefore to determine the elemental composition, ash and nicotine content, heat values, and composition of gaseous combustion products of tobacco stalk briquettes and to see if their mixing with other types of biomass availab...
