简要总结
The purpose of this study is to use Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) methods to examine the influence of novel tobacco products on biomarkers of toxicant exposure and disease risk, reports of adverse events, and concurrent use of other tobacco products. In this case, the novel products are one type of electronic cigarette and an imitation cigarette or cigarette substitute.

研究组 & 干预措施
cigarette substitute
The QuitSmart cigarette substitute is a plastic tube that looks like a real cigarette and is designed to provide the same draw resistance as a smoker's usual cigarette. There is no drug delivery with this product. Two cigarette substitutes and a product manual are provided to participants following randomization and replacement products are provided throughout the intervention period (24 weeks).
干预措施: cigarette substitute (Other)
e-cigarette (with 0 mg/ml nicotine)
The e-cigarette used will be the EGO e-cigarette (marketed by www.liquidexpress.com). Each participant randomized to an ECIG condition will receive 2 e-cigarette batteries, 1 wall adapter, 1 USB charger, and a user manual. Cartomizers containing 0 mg/ml nicotine will be provided throughout the intervention period (24 weeks).
干预措施: e-cigarette (Other)
e-cigarette (with 8 mg/ml nicotine)
The e-cigarette used will be the EGO e-cigarette (marketed by www.liquidexpress.com). Each participant randomized to an ECIG condition will receive 2 e-cigarette batteries, 1 wall adapter, 1 USB charger, and a user manual. Cartomizers containing 8 mg/ml nicotine will be provided throughout the intervention period (24 weeks).
干预措施: e-cigarette (Other)
e-cigarette (with 36 mg/ml nicotine)
The e-cigarette used will be the EGO e-cigarette (marketed by www.liquidexpress.com). Each participant randomized to an ECIG condition will receive 2 e-cigarette batteries, 1 wall adapter, 1 USB charger, and a user manual. Cartomizers containing 36 mg/ml nicotine will be provided throughout the intervention period (24 weeks).
