  1. Each analysis was performed for the whole cohort (the left side) and the male subgroup only (the right side). #DAT alleles with less than 10 repeats. Number, numbers of subjects respectively indicated with high (≥ 4) per low scores (< 4) of HSI, Heavy Smoking Index (summary score of the number of cigarettes smoked per day and the time to the first cigarette of the day extracted from the Fagerstrom Test for Nicotine Dependence) in current smokers; OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval.
