Mean (M) and SDs for topography measures. P values estimated from repeated measures analysis of variance with Tukey adjustment for all pairwise comparisons. All measures were winsorised at the 1st and 99th percentiles. Superscripts denote differences in pairwise comparisons between study products at the p<0.05 level.
*Variable log transformed for analysis. See online supplemental table 2 for specific p values.

mFLC, menthol filtered little cigar; mRYO, menthol roll-your-own; NMC, non-menthol cigarette; UBMC, usual brand menthol cigarette.
