Abstract | As antiretroviral treatments prolong life in HIV-infected patients, smoking cessation is now a top priority. However, studies of HIV-infected smokers have not been conducted with uninfected controls. We determined factors associated with contemplating smoking cessation and making a prior quit attempt among HIV-infected and uninfected smoking Veterans. |
