Abstract:
Smokers lose, on average, about ten years of life, while smokers who quit before age of 35 years have mortality rates similar to those who never smoked. There is lack of support for smokers in their quitting attempt as well as empirical data to design support strategies. This cross sectional study was conducted in 2012 in rural Tangail, to identify the smoking quitting attempts and its correlates in Bangladeshi population. A total of 505 adult rural smokers were enlisted, and interviewed using a pretested questionnaire in Bangla. Pearson’s chi-square tests and logistic regression analysis were

Abstract:
Abstract Introduction Observational and trial evidence conflict on the efficacy of two contrasting behavioral approaches to quitting smoking—gradual and abrupt. Observational data suggest an abrupt approach to quitting is superior to a gradual approach, whilst trials show no difference. One potential explanation is self-selection in observational data, whereby people can choose their quit approach, and those who find it harder to quit may be more likely to choose a gradual quit approach. This study aims to investigate potential explanations for these conflicting findings. Aims and Methods This

Aim: To investigate to what extent smokers and snus users in Sweden consider and plan their quit attempts in advance, and to assess if spontaneity is associated with success. Methods: A sample of 5999 Swedish men and women between 16 and 80 years were interviewed via telephone about current and former smoking and snus use and their latest quit attempts. Results: Among 2272 ex-smokers and current smokers who had ever made a serious quit attempt 48% reported to not having planned their latest attempt in advance.

AbstractBackground: Little is known about the extent to which smokers attending stop-smoking clinics experience conflicting motivations about their quit attempt, whether such conflict can be understood in terms of a single dimension and if this ‘conflict about quitting’ differs from motivation to stop smoking and is associated with a smoker's choice of method to stop smoking (stopping gradually or abruptly). Method: Sociodemographic, smoking and quit attempt characteristics as well as measures relating to conflict about stopping smoking were recorded in a cross-sectional survey of 198 smokers

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter considers how exercise can be used to increase the chances of success of difficult tasks, such as quitting smoking. It provides an overview of the process of quitting smoking and handling the subsequent smoking withdrawal symptoms. Exercise appears to reduce the client’s sensitivity to the withdrawal sensations and the low, anxious, or irritable moods that accompany a quit attempt, so regular exercise can help people become resilient to the classic causes of smoking relapse. The chapter presents a worksheet that can help the client build a quit plan for smoking cessation.

Abstract:
Despite the reality that smoking remains the most important preventable cause of death and disability, most clinicians underperform in helping smokers quit. Nearly 70 per cent of smokers want to quit, and 42.5 per cent attempt to quit each year. The most effective smoking cessation programmes involve a combination of pharmacotherapy and behavioural and/or cognitive counselling to improve abstinence rates. Ways to counter clinicians’ pessimism about cessation include the knowledge that most smokers require multiple attempts before they succeed in quitting.

Abstract The older population is growing steadily, and by the year 2010 will represent 20% of the total U.S. population. Only recently has special attention been paid to the needs of older smokers. Older smokers experience many significant health consequences from continued smoking and derive a number of important health benefits when they stop smoking. However, they also may face special barriers when they attempt to quit after a lifetime of smoking.

Abstract:
Abstract Cigarette smoking behavior during the teen and early adult years has been characterized as a sequence of developmental stages (Hirschman et al., 1984; Mayhew et al., 2000). Initiation or uptake of smoking and progression from one stage to another is influenced by economic, physiological, psychologic, environmental, and social factors. An understanding of the stages of acquisition of smoking behavior, the phenomenon of nicotine addiction and withdrawal, and the fac tors that influence these variables is critical to designing and delivering tobacco dependence interventions.

Abstract:
Abstract The vast majority of current tobacco users are interested in quitting smoking and have tried to quit at some point (USDHHS 1989). Although approximately one-third of all cigarette smokers attempt to quit each year, most quickly relapse in the first week or two (USDHHS 1989). For many, pharmacologic aids may make the transition from nicotine addiction to a stable abstinence more tolerable, and this may make the difference be-tween premature death due to tobacco exposure and the improved health achieved by abstinence from tobacco.

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.

Abstract This chapter reviews the global data on the prevalence of smoking and its incidence (or uptake), on consumption trends, and on smoking-attributable deaths. The vast majority of the world’s 1.1 billion smokers in 1995 lived in low-income and middle¬ income countries. Cigarette consumption bas risen over the past two decades in these countries, in contrast to declines in overall consumption in high-income countries. Most smokers start in youth, and there is some evidence that the average age of smoking uptake is falling. Because of the long delay between the age at which people take up
