  1. All values are means. “Engaged” refers to completion of the intervention counseling call; Column 3a comprises all participants who completed the intervention call, whereas Column 3b comprises all participants who both completed the intervention call and reported receiving their chosen smoking cessation medication during the study. “Retained” refers to completion of the 6-month follow-up survey. “Fast” and “slow” metabolizers correspond to NMR ≥ 0.31 and NMR < 0.31, respectively. “High,” “higher,” and “highest” risk correspond to polygenic risk scores of 1–4, 5–7, and 8–10, respectively
