Abstract:
Despite countries’ commitments to improve nutrition, starting with the protection of breastfeeding, aggressive marketing of breastmilk substitutes continues to promote their indiscriminate use. The baby food industry appears to use similar interference tactics as the tobacco industry to influence public health, promote their products and expand their markets.
 Learning from the tobacco experience, this paper assesses whether the baby food industry uses any of the six tobacco industry interference tactics recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) and summarizes examples of document

Of H&N sites, mouth is most common [∼300,373 cases pa, cf oropharynx ∼142,387; larynx ∼156,877; nasopharynx 86,691]. Across south Asia, cancer of lip & mouth [oral cancer: OSCC] is a serious public health problem. In many, it is the most common cancer among men, 5th/6th in women, second overall. Five year survival rates are < 50%. Treatment is devastating. It is difficult to get authorities and public to recognize the

Abstract:
Background Companies use brand websites as a promotional tool to engage consumers on the web, which can increase product use. Given that some products are harmful to the health of consumers, it is important for marketing associated with these products to be subject to public health surveillance. However, terms of service (TOS) governing the use of brand website content may impede such important research. Objective The aim of this study is to explore the TOS for brand websites with public health significance to assess possible legal and ethical challenges for conducting research on consumer pro

Abstract:
There are accumulative evidences that the prevalence of cigarette smoking has gradually declined in most high-income countries since the 1990s, in part due to public health campaigns emphasizing on the relationship between tobacco use and detrimental health effects. In late 2000s electronic (e)-cigarettes were introduced in the world, as less harmful nicotine products that may also help people in quitting smoking. Since then, the use of e-cigarettes has increased rapidly from the time when their introduction in the global market. In this work we present a collection of position statements and

Abstract Background. Tobacco use remains a significant public health issue, particularly among the LGBTQ+ community. Los Angeles County, which is home to the second-largest LGBTQ+ population in the US, has notably higher prevalence of tobacco use compared to the general population, partly due to targeted marketing by the tobacco industry, social stressors, and discrimination. These factors contribute to higher rates of smoking and tobacco-related health disparities; however, little is known about the capacity of community-based organizations, clinical providers, support staff, and other person

Dentists play a key role in the primary prevention of oral diseases and related systemic complications; therefore, their views on behavioural interventions need to be aligned with the current agendas for oral health. Likewise, dental students’ oral health-related knowledge, attitudes, and behaviours (KAB) are of practical importance, as they are the future opinion leaders for oral health in their respective communities. A cross-sectional survey-based study was designed to evaluate the oral health KAB of dental students in both the Czech Republic and Slovakia. The study utilized translated vers

The development of these cancers is influenced by several risk factors, including human papillomaviruses (HPV types 16 and 32), tobacco use, alcohol consumption and in some cases vaping. Although earlier studies have shown an increasing incidence of oral cancer, there are still gaps in public knowledge about its symptoms and risk factors.
