What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Changes From Baseline Smoking Behavior at 1,2,3,4,5,6 Months

    Self-reported smoking during the last 30 days was a dichotomous variable.

    Measured: baseline, 1-month, 2-month, 3-month, 4-month, 5-month, 6-month

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Changes From Baseline Quality of Life at 1,2,3,4,5,6 Months

    Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Lung, Version 4 (FACT-L v. 4) was a 36-item ordinal scale, five-point scale from 0 (not at all) to 4 (very much). There were 5 domains: Physical, social/family, emotional, and functional well-being; lung cancer subscale (symptoms, cognitive function, regret of smoking). Subscale scores added to obtain total score, with higher scores indicating better quality of life.

    Measured: baseline, 1-month, 2-month, 3-month, 4-month, 5-month, 6-month

  2. Proportion of participants with Overall Survival up to 2 years

    survival

    Measured: follow up to one or two years
