| Abstract: | The authors emphasize that treatments for nicotine addiction should be considered a priority in the U.S. They described the prevalence of cigarette smoking in the country, along with the epidemiology of medical conditions associated with smoking. They argued that several smokers will try to quit smoking if effective and inexpensive treatment approaches are available. The authors added that despite efforts to search for lung cancer treatment, five-year survival rate only increased to 14 percent and mortality increased by only 2.5-fold. |
