Abstract:

AbstractThe addiction literature contains numerous case reports of individuals dependent on a range of chemical substances, but strong dependence on cigarettes has not been similarly documented. This report attempts to fill this gap by describing two exceptionally dependent smokers. Both suffer with a smoking-related disease and have a very strong motivation to quit. Despite receiving intensive behavioural and pharmacological treatments to help them stop smoking, they have been unable to maintain even a short period of abstinence. The two cases provide reference examples for the assertion that while not all smokers are hopelessly hooked, some are. Such illustrative cases may stimulate research into the area of individual differences in cigarette dependence.

Abstract:

Background Because continued cigarette smoking after a cancer diagnosis is associated with detrimental outcomes, supporting cancer patients with smoking cessation is imperative. We evaluated the effect of the Smoking Cessation Program at the London Regional Cancer Program (lrcp) over a 2-year period.Methods The Smoking Cessation Program at the lrcp began in March 2014. New patients are screened for tobacco use. Tobacco users are counselled about the benefits of cessation and are offered referral to the program. If a patient accepts, a smoking cessation champion offers additional counselling. Follow-up is provided by interactive voice response (ivr) telephone system. Accrual data were collected monthly from January 2015 to December 2016 and were evaluated.Results During 2015–2016, 10,341 patients were screened for tobacco use, and 18% identified themselves as current or recent tobacco users. In 2015, 84% of tobacco users were offered referral, but only 13% accepted, and 3% enrolled in ivr follow-up. At the lrcp in 2016, 77% of tobacco users were offered referral to the program, but only 9% of smokers accepted, and only 2% enrolled in ivr follow-up.Conclusions The Smoking Cessation Program at the lrcp has had modest success, because multiple factors influence a patient’s success with cessation. Limitations of the program include challenges in referral and counselling, limited access to nicotine replacement therapy (nrt), and minimal follow-up. To mitigate some of those challenges, a pilot project was launched in January 2017 in which patients receive free nrt and referral to the local health unit.

Abstract:

Smoking during pregnancy is a global health problem which has devastating health implications. Behavioural support is an important part of smoking cessation support for pregnant women. Research has identified barriers and facilitators (B&Fs) and effective behaviour change techniques (BCTs) to aid women’s quit attempts. However, the extent to which and how these BCTs are used in practice is unclear. The research aimed to establish experts’ views on how behavioural support can be optimised and techniques operationalised in clinical practice, by identifying ways to address known B&Fs for smoking cessation in pregnancy. A focus group discussion took place with six experts, which highlighted how BCTs can be used in practice to support women in their quit attempts. A thematic analysis was conducted to elicit overarching themes. Five themes were found: involving the family, empowering women, using incentives to boost motivation, using practical techniques to help women with their quit attempts and managing expectations about nicotine replacement therapy. Empowering women to make their own decisions and encouraging small positive changes in smoking habits, using visual aids (e.g., growth charts) to inform women of the harms of smoking to the baby and treating families holistically were deemed important.

Abstract:

Abstract Introduction Raising the price of cigarettes is one of the most effective strategies to reduce cigarette smoking. The Vietnamese government is working toward the tobacco control goal of a 10% reduction in smoking prevalence by 2020. However, cigarette prices in Vietnam have not increased in the last two decades. The aim of this study was to estimate what cigarette prices would make smokers attempt to quit smoking, and to identify predictors of the price to quit and the intention to quit. Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted with 822 male current smokers in Da Nang, Vietnam. A structured questionnaire was adapted from the International Tobacco Control project survey. Bayesian quantile regression was applied to predict factors associated with expected cigarette price. Results Fifty-six percent of smokers suggested a price to quit. Their median suggested price to quit per pack, 62 000 VND (2.8 USD), was 2.8 times higher than the actual current price, 22 000 VND (1.01 USD). Suggesting a lower price to quit was significantly associated with awareness of warning labels and smoke-free policies. In contrast, being a heavy smoker was significantly associated with a higher suggested price to quit across all quantiles. Conclusions There may be sufficient room to increase cigarette prices in Vietnam. The price to quit is associated with various factors, including non-pricing policies. Implications Evidence suggests that a steep increase in cigarette prices, setting a high minimum tax, and introducing a large specific tax, which are policy-induced price increases that can raise prices substantially in Vietnam, are preferable strategies. In addition to increasing price and taxes, the government should also strengthen non-pricing policies.

Abstract:

Compensatory health beliefs (CHBs) are a means to cope with motivational conflicts between intended health goals and the temptation for an unhealthy behavior. As CHBs can fluctuate on a daily basis, this study examined how daily CHBs are associated with daily intention to quit smoking and daily number of cigarettes smoked before and after a quit date at the between- and within-person level. The study comprised a prospective longitudinal design and investigated 83 women and 83 men for 32 consecutive days during an ongoing joint self-set quit attempt. Daily CHBs varied from day to day and between individuals. At the between-person level, higher women’s mean CHBs were associated with lower intention (b = −0.23, p = 0.04) and at the 10% level with more cigarettes smoked after the quit date (rate ratio (RR) = 1.92, p = 0.07). At the within-person level, women’s higher than usual CHBs were unrelated to intention to quit, but were related to less smoking before (RR = 0.96, p = 0.03) and at the 10% level after the quit date (RR = 0.91, p = 0.09). A marginally positive association between daily CHBs and smoking at the within-person level emerged for men. The negative effect of daily CHBs at the between-person level on smoking seems to unfold after the quit attempt and for women only.

Abstract:

Smoking causes Type II diabetes (T2DM). However, there were limited research on the needs, concerns and intention of smokers with T2DM about quitting smoking. This study aimed to explore the behaviors and perceptions on smoking and quitting smoking in patients with T2DM. I conducted both qualitative and quantitative studies. The qualitative study involved T2DM patients who were current smokers or ex-smokers, and could communicate in Cantonese. Semi-structured focus group and individual in-depth interviews were conducted. The quantitative study was cross-sectional, using a standardized questionnaire to identify the intention to quit smoking, knowledge regarding the health risks of smoking and their determinants in T2DM smokers who (1) were aged 18 years or above; (2) can communicate in Cantonese; (3) had daily consumption of at least 2 cigarettes in the past 30 days; and (4) diagnosed with T2DM for at least 6 months with stable condition. Structured multiphase regression analyses were used to identify factors associated with intention to quit smoking and knowledge on the health impact of smoking. In the qualitative study, I recruited 22 current smokers and 20 ex-smokers with T2DM at data saturation. The current T2DM smokers did not quit smoking because of satisfaction with their current health status, misconceptions of no association between T2DM and smoking, and the perceived hazards of quitting. In contrast, ex-smokers had a positive evaluation of quitting smoking, accepted the quit advice from medical professionals and received more family support. Moreover, psychological addiction and weight gain after smoking cessation were the major barriers for T2DM patients to quit smoking. In the cross-sectional study, I recruited 526 smokers with T2DM from nine outpatient clinics specialized in diabetes. They scored on average 47.5 (95% CI=45.6-49.4) out of 0-100 in knowledge regarding health impact of smoking, and 389 (74%, 95% CI=70.3%-77.8%) of them were in pre-contemplation stage. The multiphase regression analysis showed that T2DM smokers with no intention to quit were those who smoked during alcohol drinking (OR=5.98, 95% CI=1.89-18.98, p=0.002). In contrast, those less likely associated with pre-contemplation stage were those who perceived a worse level of health (OR=0.41, 95%, CI=0.19-0.86, p=0.019), perceived greater importance of quitting (OR=0.67, 95% CI=0.58-0.78, p<0.0001), had higher confidence of quitting (OR=0.77, 95% CI=0.67-0.88, p<0.0001), or had more knowledge regarding health impact of smoking (OR=0.98, 95%, CI=0.97-0.999, p=0.035). In addition, a higher score on Decisional Balance Inventory-Cons of smoking (coefficient=1.61, 95% CI=0.56-2.66, p=0.003) or confidence in quitting was associated with a higher knowledge score (coefficient=1.30, 95% CI=0.59-2.01, p<0.001). Conclusively, this is the first study to assess the smoking behaviors and perceptions in patients with T2DM. Many T2DM smokers were reluctant to quit smoking due to inadequate knowledge of the health impact of smoking. Patient education, weight control and behavioral counseling are suggested as the critical components of an effective smoking cessation intervention for T2DM patients.

Abstract:

Tobacco use remains the single most important preventable cause of premature death and disability in the United States and is a critical health issue for our nation’s youths. Cigarette smoking is the most common form of tobacco use among adolescents (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2001), with over 90% of adult smokers initiating smoking at or before age 19 years (Mowery, Brick, & Farrelly, 2000). Consequently, reduction of tobacco use during adolescence is especially critical before lifelong smoking habits are established. Current national health objectives for children and adolescents focus on reducing health risks related to tobacco use and exposure to secondhand smoke (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2000). Specific objectives include reducing the initiation of tobacco use among children and adolescents, reducing their average age of first use of tobacco products, increasing cessation attempts by current smokers, and reducing the proportion of children who are regularly exposed to tobacco smoke in the home. These health objectives are especially important for children and adolescents with cancer, who may be at even greater risk than their healthy peers for tobacco-related health problems because of their compromised health status (Hollen & Hobbie, 1996). Exposure to environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) has similar serious consequences for the child with cancer (Alligne & Stoddard, 1997; Cook & Strachan, 1999). Interventions that attempt to prevent, reduce, or terminate tobacco use and ETS exposure could therefore contribute to a decrease in the morbidity and mortality of patients treated for cancer. This chapter reviews the prevalence of tobacco use, the magnified health effects associated with tobacco use, and some of the correlates associated with tobacco use among young patients treated for cancer. We also describe tobacco interventions that have been conducted with this population and discuss how health care providers involved in the treatment or long-term care of childhood cancer patients can assist their high-risk patients in making healthy lifestyle choices, including the decision to abstain from, reduce, or quit smoking and to avoid environmental tobacco exposures. Tobacco use is a significant behavioral health problem that poses serious health risks for young patients treated for cancer.

Abstract:

Smoking involves inhaling, exhaling, holding or otherwise having control over an ignited tobacco product. This practice remains a global budden and deaths caused by smoking-related conditions is believed to have escalated. Many countries in the world have policies in place that regulate the production, transportation, handling and utilization of tobacco products in order to compact this budden of smoking. Despite these effort, various contributing factors of smoking amongst which peer-pressure forms part, are believed to be cause of an increase in the number of new smokers. Nicotine is one of the constituents of tobacco smoke which causes a pleasant feelings which in return contributes to addiction. Cigarette smoke contains thousands of chemicals with some known to be carcinogens. Smoking during pregnancy poses danger to a pregnant mother and her unborn babe as they exchange blood. The public needs to be educated on the danger of smoking, and exposure to second-hand smoke as well as on strategies that one can follow to quit smoking.

Abstract:

This concluding chapter explores the persistence of addiction to nicotine at the turn of the twenty-first century, as well as the incentives for quitting smoking. Despite the development of behavioral and pharmaceutical assistance to help smokers give up their addictions to cigarettes, the transition from dependence to a smoke-free lifestyle can be, at least for some, “sheer hell.” Moreover, despite declining overall numbers of tobacco users since the mid-1960s, nicotine survived the “cigarette century” that was the twentieth century. While quitting smoking is the new normal among tobacco users, there are many “holdouts,” frequent relapses, aborted quit attempts, and harm-reducing electronic cigarettes that allow nicotine addiction to endure.

Abstract:

Nicotine is responsible for the psychoactive and habit-forming effects of tobacco. Approximately 30% of Americans use tobacco products; half of them are nicotine-dependent. Nicotine has mild stimulant effects. Overdose is rare in experienced users. Some may develop nausea, vomiting, weakness, and dizziness. Withdrawal symptoms include craving, irritability, anxiety, restlessness, and increased appetite. Smokers have elevated exhaled carbon monoxide and serum carboxyhemoglobin levels. Cotinine, a metabolite of nicotine, can be detected in blood and urine. Many medical conditions are associated with tobacco use (particularly smoking), including cardiovascular disease, chronic lung disease, and a variety of malignancies. A number of interventions can help increase smoking cessation rates, including physician advice, counseling, nicotine replacement, varenicline, and bupropion. Electronic cigarettes may help smokers quit or reduce their smoking.

Abstract:

Arterial blockages can occur in small or large arteries for a variety of reasons, such as obesity, stress, smoking and high cholesterol. This paper presents a feasibility study on a novel method to detect the behaviour of the blood pressure wave propagation for arteries in both healthy and diseased conditions in order to develop a relatively inexpensive method for early detection of arterial disease. The trend of this behaviour is correlated to the early development of the arterial blockage at various locations. Invasive sets of data (gathered from experiments performed on animals) are implemented into a 3D Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) model to determine how the arterial wall compliance changes when any abnormalities occur to the blood flow profile. At the same time, a 1D acoustical model is developed to transfer the information gathered (wave propagation for blood pressure, flow and arterial wall displacement) from the CFD model. Wave forms were collected at a location which was invasively accessible (the femoral artery). The computational and acoustical models are validated against the clinical trials and show good agreement. Any changes to the arterial wall displacement could be detected by systolic and diastolic blood pressure values at the femoral artery.
