A prospective, single-blind, randomized controlled trial was conducted among 150 adult tobacco users attending the Tobacco Cessation Centre, Government Dental College, Raipur and Chhattisgarh, India. Participants were randomized into three groups: Group I (NRT alone), Group II (NRT + counseling) and Group III (NRT + mCessation). Interventions lasted 12 weeks, with follow-ups at 1 and 3 months. The overall quit rate was 34%. Group II demonstrated the highest success rate (44%), followed by Group III (30%) and Group I (28%). Significant reductions in nicotine dependence, CO levels and cigarette consumption were observed in all groups, with Group II showing the most marked improvements. Behavioral counseling combined with pharmacotherapy is the most effective strategy for smoking cessation.
在印度赖布尔和恰蒂斯加尔邦政府牙科学院戒烟中心的150名成年烟草使用者中进行了一项前瞻性、单盲、随机对照试验。参与者被随机分为三组:第一组(仅使用尼古丁替代疗法)、第二组(尼古丁替代疗法+咨询)和第三组(尼古丁替代疗法+mCessation)。干预持续12周,在1个月和3个月时进行随访。总体戒烟率为34%。第二组显示出最高的成功率(44%),其次是第三组(30%)和第一组(28%)。所有组的尼古丁依赖、一氧化碳水平和香烟消费量均显著降低,第二组改善最为明显。行为咨询联合药物治疗是戒烟最有效的策略。
