TL;DR: Successful tobacco control may result in a higher dependence among the remaining smokers (due to selective quitting by low-dependent smokers) and the remaining highly dependent smokers may need more intensive treatment.

TL;DR: The study demonstrates that the intensity of nicotine dependence, several conditions of craving for nicotine, sleep disturbances and symptoms of depression appear to be enhanced in alcohol- dependent smokers compared with non-alcohol-dependent smokers.

TL;DR: Nocturnal sleep-disturbing nicotine craving (NSDNC) is characterised by craving for cigarettes during the individual sleep times, which can be explained by the decreasing nicotine levels during the sleep time, which results in nicotine craving.

TL;DR: The study aimed at subtyping smokers in an attempt to better understand the phenomenon of resistant smokers and provide more information that could potentially become useful to treatment centres assuming the subtypes correlate directly with outcomes of different smoking cessation treatments, tailor-made according to subtypes.

TL;DR: It is concluded that measures that increase awareness in patients at risk are vital to reduce delays in seeking medical care and hospital admission, and thus to improve the prognosis of acute myocardial infarction.
