“…These findings confirmed those of an earlier meta-analysis (N ϭ 11 studies), which found that smokers with the active patch were over 3 times more likely to be abstinent at short term (i.e., 3-10 weeks) and more than twice as likely to remain abstinent at long term (i.e., 24 -52 weeks) than smokers treated with placebo patches (Po, 1993). Silagy, Mant, Fowler, and Lodge (1994) conducted a metaanalysis on the efficacy of the four forms of NRT available at the time and included 53 trials: nicotine gum (n ϭ 42), patch (n ϭ 9), spray (n ϭ 1), and inhaler (n ϭ 1). Silagy et al (1994) found that all forms of NRT were significantly more effective than placebo or no treatment.…”

“…Overall abstinence rates were comparable to those achieved in previous studies. [16][17][18] The logistic regression models for the treatment and follow-up phase are shown in Table 1. Smokers carrying the OPRM1 Asp40 variant were significantly more likely to be abstinent at the end of the treatment phase (OR ¼ 1.79, 1.05-3.06, P ¼ 0.03).…”

“…16 To simplify the analysis, only one type of NRT (patches) was evaluated as nicotine patches and gum were largely comparable both in terms of effectiveness 28 and local cost. Bupropion with counselling as an aid in smoking cessation has also been found to be effective compared with placebo.…”
