Summary

This study looked at whether little cigars and cigarillos (LCCs) are addictive, especially when flavored like fruit, and if addiction differs between men and women. Researchers studied 65 young adults aged 18-34 who smoke both LCCs and cigarettes. They measured how much people would smoke as prices went up to understand addiction potential.
