Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Cigarette smoking increases CVD risk and worsens insulin resistance, but also contributes to weight loss; smoking cessation reduces CVD risk and improves insulin sensitivity, but also contributes to weight gain. The mechanisms that underlie these metabolic changes of cigarette smoking and smoking cessation on insulin resistance, body composition, and fat distribution are poorly understood.
