项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant) Analyzing tobacco documents on ciqarette desiqn. Tobacco documents will be searched, retrieved and analyzed for information on four focused topics related to cigarette design. First, we will focus on cigarette length, circumference, and puff number. Since the 1960s there has been a dramatic increase in the length of cigarettes (about 60% of the market are king size and about 40% are 100mm). Increases in cigarette length are related to increased burn times and puff counts and sometimes related to decreased circumferences. Length may also be related to promoting elasticity in a cigarette. Second, published work on filter ventilation, which made use of industry documents, will be updated in light of new documents posted since November 2000 and other documents not located in prior searches. A current collection of about 250 documents--used in published work--will be abstracted and posted on the Internet as a collection, along with selected additional documents as identified. Third, a historical analysis on as many brands as possible will be performed on the relationship between standard yields, filter ventilation and puff number. Fourth, the Barclay affair will be analyzed. Barclay was a cigarette introduced by BATCO/Brown& Williamson in the early 1980s in the United States. Barclay led to unprecedented complaints by other tobacco companies that the filter design was subject to unavoidable vent blocking by smokers and to a Federal Appeals Court ruling that excluded Barclay from Federal Trade Commission Testing. Barclay and related brands using the so-called Actron filter still receive special treatment in FTC tests. Behind-the-scenes industry research will be discussed, as well as the public information on the topic. For all topics, current policy implications will be addressed. These issues relate to smoker compensation and the testing of cigarettes. An understanding of these documents can help guide future research and policy on cigarette smoking as well as cigarette design and testing. Collections (with standardized abstracts controlled vocabulary terms) will be made available on the Internet. Reports will be submitted to peer-reviewed journals.

描述（由申请人提供）分析有关香烟设计的烟草文件。将搜索、检索和分析烟草文件，以获取与卷烟设计相关的四个重点主题的信息。首先，我们关注香烟的长度、周长和抽吸次数。自 20 世纪 60 年代以来，卷烟长度急剧增加（市场上约 60% 为特大号卷烟，约 40% 为 100 毫米卷烟）。香烟长度的增加与燃烧时间和抽吸次数的增加有关，有时与周长的减少有关。长度也可能与促进香烟的弹性有关。其次，已发表的过滤器通风工作利用了行业文件，将根据 2000 年 11 月以来发布的新文件以及之前搜索中未找到的其他文件进行更新。当前收集的约 250 份文档（在已发表的作品中使用）将被摘录并作为集合发布在互联网上，以及选定的其他已确定的文档。第三，将对尽可能多的品牌进行历史分析，以了解标准产量、过滤器通气量和抽吸次数之间的关系。第四，分析巴克莱事件。巴克莱是 BATCO/Brown&Williamson 于 20 世纪 80 年代初在美国推出的一款香烟。巴克莱引起了其他烟草公司前所未有的投诉，称其过滤嘴设计不可避免地会被吸烟者堵塞通风口，联邦上诉法院裁决将巴克莱排除在联邦贸易委员会测试之外。 Barclay和使用所谓Actron过滤器的相关品牌在FTC测试中仍然受到特殊待遇。将讨论幕后行业研究以及有关该主题的公共信息。对于所有主题，当前的政策影响都将得到解决。这些问题涉及吸烟者补偿和卷烟测试。了解这些文件有助于指导未来有关吸烟以及卷烟设计和测试的研究和政策。馆藏（带有标准化摘要控制词汇术语）将在互联网上提供。报告将提交给同行评审期刊。
