To determine the relationship between body weight and reduction or cessation of cigarette smoking, body weight and height as well as serum thiocyanate concentration were measured in 107 persons before and after participation in smoking-cessation programs. Body weight increased in only 67.3 percent of cases, but increases in body weight were associated with the greater reduction in cigarette consumption while the absence of weight gain was associated with a small reduction in cigarette consumption. Body weight increases after participation in the program were significantly (P less than 0.05) greater in men than in women despite the absence of a significant difference in the reduction of cigarette consumption between men and women. Analysis of variance failed to show a significant deviation from linearity in the significant relationship between reduction in tobacco consumption and increase in body weight. A number of variables assessed at entry into the study, such as age, age at starting smoking, cigarette consumption, initial body weight or anxiety level (Manifest Anxiety Scale) did not correlate with the change in weight in men or women. These data suggest that the most important determinant of weight gain is the amount of reduction in cigarette consumption and that there are important sex differences in response of body weight to reduction of tobacco consumption.
为了确定体重与减少或戒烟之间的关系，在107名参加戒烟项目的人员参与项目前后测量了他们的体重、身高以及血清硫氰酸盐浓度。仅有67.3%的案例体重增加，但体重增加与香烟消耗量的更大幅度减少相关，而体重未增加则与香烟消耗量的小幅减少相关。尽管男性和女性在减少香烟消耗量方面没有显著差异，但参与项目后男性的体重增加显著（P小于0.05）高于女性。方差分析未能显示出烟草消耗量减少与体重增加之间的显著关系存在显著的线性偏差。在研究开始时评估的一些变量，如年龄、开始吸烟的年龄、香烟消耗量、初始体重或焦虑水平（显性焦虑量表），与男性或女性的体重变化均无关联。这些数据表明，体重增加的最重要决定因素是香烟消耗量的减少量，并且在体重对减少烟草消耗量的反应方面存在重要的性别差异。
