*For the purposes of this manuscript, we have attempted to reduce the stigma associated with smoking and support a more holistic approach by referring to''' “individuals who smoke” or “patients who smoke” rather than referring to people as “smokers.” '''In other words, tobacco dependence is just one component of an individual’s health behaviors and diagnoses. [emphasis added]

*'''Smoker: Do not use. In line with our house style, we do not label people. Use 'people who smoke'.''' [emphasis added]

*Don't label people with their condition: we would never say 'epileptics', 'schizophrenics', 'smokers', 'drug-takers'. Use the following as a guide: 'people with epilepsy', 'people with schizophrenia', 'people who smoke', 'people who take drugs'.
