Carbon monoxide (CO) quitter: <8 ppm, Cotinine (COT) quitter: <20 ng/ml
*COT >20 ng/ml but evidence of NRT use at time of sampling
**COT >20 ng/ml but CO <<8 ppm
†self reported quitter but cotinine level above cut-offs (373 ng/ml and 385 ng/ml)
‡self reported quitter but did not return biochemical sample
