“…An interviewer-administered questionnaire was used to collect information about demographic characteristics (e.g., age, sex, education level, and race/ethnicity), smoking behaviors (self-reported smoking status, daily smoking amount, nicotine dependence based on the Fagerstrom score, cigarette brand name, number of packages smoked daily), and socioeconomic status. A clinical Research Support System (CReSS) pocket device (BORGWALDT, Richmond, VA, USA) was used to collect data containing the distributions of puff volumes, puff durations, and interpuff intervals from cigarette smoking during a 24-hour period, which was used in many previous studies as a valid tool [ 6 , 7 , 8 ]. Urine samples were collected from participants who completed topography analyses and were subjected to measurements of cotinine, OH-cotinine, and 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanol (NNAL) concentrations using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry [ 15 ].…”
