Fifteen white patients participated in this study of a family-practice-based smoking cessation program in which corticotropin (ACTH) was used to assist patients during the first one to two weeks of abstinence from nicotine. All patients were habitual smokers who had made one or more attempts to quit smoking before entering this program. Treatment consisted of three single intramuscular injections of ACTH. In most cases, declining doses of 160, 80, and 40 U were administered at three-day intervals. The decision to provide additional treatment was based on the response by each volunteer and the investigator's judgment. The mean duration of follow-up was 33 days (range, 17 to 49 days), with the exception of two patients, who have just recently completed therapy. Evidence supporting complete smoking cessation or a significant reduction (80% to greater than 90%) in the number of cigarettes smoked per day was achieved in 13 of the 15 patients. The single nonresponder expressed an initial interest in the program, but showed a lack of motivation thereafter. There was insufficient follow-up on one other patient, who has not been available for monitoring since completion of therapy. Symptoms associated with the tobacco withdrawal syndrome that were reported by the patients included mild irritability and restlessness.

Since 1907 records have been kept of publications by staff members of the Mayo Clinic, and this information has been invaluable. The Author Catalog has proved itself such a useful tool for the Mayo Clinic that other libraries, large and small, may wish to consider adopting such a service. The Mayo medical complex is a large institution with more than 500 staff and faculty members engaged in the publication of clinical, educational, and research findings. The great amount of cross-disciplinary cooperation and interdepartmental research makes essential an up-to-date record of what is going on. The Mayo Clinic Library developed a comprehensive computerized method for identifying research and for identifying and indexing publications of Mayo staff members. At the end of 1971 more than 25,000 citations had been stored on computer tape.
