RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major global health concern, the leading cause of death and disability. Thus, preventive interventions targeting modifiable risk factors are essential. Mobile-health technologies have emerged as promising tools for improving prevention by modifying risk factors. We created the "Green Heart" mobile app to help coronary artery disease (CAD) patients control their risk factors. The app has three modules: smoking cessation, dyslipidemia (DLP) control, and blood pressure (BP) management. This study evaluated the app's performance in monitoring hypertension (HTN) and DLP among known CAD cases. METHODS: A randomized controlled trial enrolled 1590 CAD subjects, including 1114 hypertensive patients and 1488 subjects with DLP, and assigned them randomly to paper-based education or application-based groups. RESULTS: Regarding HTN, after 6 months, we finally analyzed 545 and 546 hypertensive patients, assigned to the conventional and app groups, respectively. Patients in the app group were more likely to have their BP managed successfully (88.6% vs. 78.5%; P<0.001). The app group showed higher odds of successful BP management (odds ratio [OR]: 2.13; 95% CI: 1.51 - 3.03). Regarding DLP, we analyzed 728 patients in the conventional and 714 patients in the app group. A higher percentage of patients in the app group (24.8%) had low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels less than 70 mg/dL (16.1%; P<0.001). The app group showed higher odds of reducing LDL-C (OR: 1.72; 95% CI: 1.32-2.26). CONCLUSION: We found that using the Green Heart app in the self-monitoring setting significantly improved BP and DLP management across the study population.

RESUMO

Responsible for a significant morbidity and mortality, smoking remains a major public health issue. Smoking cessation clinics are an integral part of the fight against smoking. This retrospective study, carried out between January 2022 and January 2023 on 106 patients who attended the smoking cessation clinics in the Respiratory Department of the University Hospital of Liège, was designed to assess patient cessation rates at 6 months and 1 year, and to identify any factors predicting success or failure. Our data showed a cessation rate of 25 % at 6 months and 19 % at 1 year. Age was slightly more advanced in those who succeeded in smoking cessation at one year (p = 0.05). The obtained cessation rate strongly supports the utility of our smoking cessation clinic for patients wishing to quit smoking.


Responsable d'une morbi-mortalité importante, le tabagisme reste un enjeu, non négligeable, de santé publique. Les consultations d'aide au sevrage font partie intégrante des moyens mis en œuvre pour lutter contre le tabagisme dans une optique de prévention. Cette étude rétrospective, menée entre janvier 2022 et janvier 2023, auprès de 106 patients ayant fréquenté les consultations de tabacologie du Service de Pneumologie du CHU de Liège, avait pour objectifs d'évaluer les taux de sevrage des patients à 6 mois et à 1 an et d'identifier d'éventuels facteurs prédictifs de succès, ou d'échec, au sein de l'échantillonnage étudié. L'analyse des données a démontré un taux de sevrage de 25 % à 6 mois et de 19 % à 1 an. L'analyse des facteurs démographiques montre une moyenne d'âge plus élevée chez les patients qui réussissent leur sevrage à 1 an (p = 0,05). Le taux de sevrage obtenu atteste de la pertinence et de la nécessité de notre accompagnement auprès des patients désireux de cesser de fumer.

RESUMO

Smoking cessation appears to be the response that provides the best cost/benefit ratio among cardiovascular prevention actions. However, hospitalization precisely offers a strategic opportunity to initiate smoking cessation. This work evaluates the assistance in smoking cessation of patients treated by coronary angioplasty at the University Hospital of Liege over the last 6 years. It aims to provide food for thought regarding optimal management of smoking. Analysis of data showed a withdrawal rate of 55 % at year one. Strengthening motivation (with motivational interviewing and conversational hypnosis), the use of nicotine replacement and participation in cardiac rehabilitation have been identified as factors in consolidating abstinence. This work attests to the relevance and necessity of the intervention of a tobacco specialist in hospitalization and outpatient settings to ensure follow-up and improve the success rate of smoking cessation.


Le sevrage tabagique apparaît comme la réponse qui permet le meilleur rapport coût/bénéfice parmi les actions de prévention cardiovasculaire. Or, l'hospitalisation offre précisément une opportunité stratégique pour initier l'arrêt du tabagisme. Ce travail évalue l'aide au sevrage tabagique des patients traités par angioplastie coronaire au CHU de Liège durant ces 6 dernières années. Il vise à nourrir la réflexion quant à une prise en charge optimale du tabagisme. L'analyse des données a montré un taux de sevrage de 55 % à un an. Le renforcement de la motivation (avec l'entretien motivationnel et l'hypnose conversationnelle), l'utilisation d'une substitution nicotinique et la participation à la revalidation cardiaque ont été identifiés comme des facteurs de consolidation de l'abstinence. Ce travail atteste de la pertinence et de la nécessité de l'intervention d'un tabacologue en hospitalisation et en ambulatoire pour assurer un suivi et améliorer la réussite du sevrage tabagique.

RESUMO

SIGNIFICANCE: For decades, tobacco advertisements and promotions have been common in mass media and public places in China. In 2015, China amended the Advertising Law to prohibit the distribution of tobacco advertising, while also initiating waves of tobacco control media campaigns. This study investigates the associations between exposure to anti- and pro-smoking messages, smoking status, and people's smoking-related beliefs and willingness to support tobacco control policies. METHODS: A secondary data analysis was performed with the 2018 Global Adult Tobacco Survey of 19,376 adults aged ≥15 years in China. Anti- and pro-smoking message exposures were measured as the sum of sources (media or places) where respondents have seen the messages. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were conducted to examine the relationships among smoking status, message exposure, and the outcome variables (health harm beliefs, support for increasing tax on cigarettes, support for using part of the increased tax on tobacco control) controlling for smoking status and demographic differences. RESULTS: Overall, 63.3% of the respondents reported being exposed to anti-smoking messages from at least 1 source, while 18.1% were exposed to pro-smoking messages from at least 1 source. Adults who currently, formerly, and never smoked differed in their beliefs about smoking and willingness to support tobacco control policies. Greater reported exposure to anti-smoking messages was positively associated with belief that smoking is harmful, support for increased cigarette tax, and support for using increased tax revenue for tobacco control measures. Meanwhile, greater reported exposure to pro-smoking messages was negatively related to willingness to support cigarette tax increases. CONCLUSIONS: While national and local tobacco control campaigns in China have reached a large proportion of the adult population, there is still room for improvement. China might consider expanding anti-tobacco campaigns, as reported exposure to these messages is associated with increased public awareness of the health hazards of smoking and support for increasing cigarette taxes.

RESUMO

Tobacco control, psychosocial and medical assistance regarding tobacco cessation is still a hidden potential within the German health care system. So far doctors rarely talk to their patients about their smoking status and physical and psychological benefits of quitting.This paper focusses on recommended current diagnostic and treatment standards, as well as evidence-based methods to address the topic on how to stop smoking and its association with certain diseases such as COPD, lung cancer and COVID-19 infection. The role of e-cigarettes as a cessation tool and its health related risks are critically examined. Consequences and advice how to implement smoking cessation procedures into daily practice are presented.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: The electronic cigarette is a new-generation smoking product whose mechanism of use could, in theory, minimize adverse health effects. AIM: Determine the knowledge and perceptions of a sample of Tunisian doctors regarding electronic cigarettes. METHODS: We conducted a descriptive cross-sectional study over a two-month period with a sample of Tunisian doctors. We used an online self-questionnaire on physicians' knowledge and perceptions of e-cigarettes. RESULTS: Data were obtained from 216 physicians. Of the participants, 97.2% were familiar with e-cigarettes, 56.5% reported low knowledge, and 83.4% expressed motivation to learn more about e-cigarettes. Overall, 83.8% of doctors felt that electronic cigarettes are harmful to the user's health. Use of this product would increase the risk of cancer according to 73.1% of participants, the risk of cardiovascular disease according to 68.5% of participants, and the risk of chronic lung disease according to 79.2% of participants. The perception of e-cigarettes as harmful to the user's health was associated with the physicians' medical specialty (p=0.032). The recommendation of e-cigarettes as a smoking cessation tool was negatively correlated with addictology training (p=0.027). CONCLUSIONS: Physicians' knowledge of electronic cigarettes is heterogeneous, reflecting the current lack of information and consensus.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Smoking during pregnancy is harmful to maternal and child health. Vaping is used for smoking cessation but evidence on health effects during pregnancy is scarce. We conducted a systematic review of health outcomes of vaping during pregnancy. METHODS: We searched six databases for maternal/fetal/infant outcomes and vaping, including quantitative, English language, human studies of vaping during pregnancy, to November 10th, 2023. We assessed study quality with the Mixed-Methods Appraisal Tool. We focused on comparisons of exclusive-vaping with non-use of nicotine and tobacco products and with smoking. Presentation is narrative as the studies were of insufficient quality to conduct meta-analysis. RESULTS: We included 26 studies, with 765,527 women, with one randomised controlled trial (RCT) comparing vaping and nicotine replacement therapy for smoking cessation, 23 cohort studies and two case-control studies. While the RCT met 4/5 quality criteria, the quality of the cohort studies and case-control studies was poor; none adequately assessed exposure to smoking and vaping. For studies comparing exclusive-vaping with 'non-use', more reported no increased risk for vaping (three studies) than reported increased risk for maternal pregnancy/postpartum outcomes (one study) and for fetal and infant outcomes (20 studies no increased risk, four increased risk), except for birth-weight and neurological outcomes where two studies each observed increased and no increased risk. When the RCT compared non-users with those not smoking but vaping or using NRT, irrespective of randomisation, they reported no evidence of risk for vaping/NRT. For studies comparing exclusive-vaping and exclusive-smoking, most studies provided evidence for a comparable risk for different outcomes. One maternal biomarker study revealed a lower risk for vaping. For small-for-gestational-age/mean-birth-centile equal numbers of studies found lower risk for vaping than for smoking as found similar risk for the two groups (two each). CONCLUSIONS: While more studies found no evidence of increased risk of exclusive-vaping compared with non-use and evidence of comparable risk for exclusive-vaping and exclusive-smoking, the quality of the evidence limits conclusions. Without adequate assessment of exposure to vaping and smoking, findings cannot be attributed to behaviour as many who vape will have smoked and many who vape may do so at low levels.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Smoking cessation is a dynamic process that often involves a series of unsuccessful quit attempts before long-term abstinence is achieved. To implement interventions that lead to long-term abstinence, it will be necessary to understand the determinants of smoking cessation. Therefore, the main objective of the present study was to determine the effect of factors influencing both smoking cessation attempts and successful smoking cessation in the general population of Iran. METHODS: The data of 1293 participants whose information was obtained through a national cross-sectional study entitled "Survey of Risk Factors of Noncommunicable Diseases in 2016" were analyzed. There were three response levels: "quit attempt and successful quit", "quit attempt and unsuccessful quit", and "no quit attempt and unsuccessful quit". A multinomial logistic regression model was used to assess the effect of covariates on response. RESULTS: The mean (sd) age of all participants was 47.21 (13.65) years. According to the results, 883 people (68.29%) did not attempt to quit smoking, and of those who attempted to quit smoking, only 64 (15.61%) men were successful. The factors of living in an urban area (OR = 1.71) and past smoking intensity (OR = 1.967) were associated with no quit attempt and unsuccessful quitting. In addition, physician recommendation to quit smoking was a protective factor for no quit attempt and unsuccessful quit (OR = 0.599). Alcohol consumption was also a protective factor against successful quitting for both attempters (OR = 0.351) and nonattempters (OR = 0.359). CONCLUSIONS: Tobacco control programs should be implemented with a greater focus on heavy smokers and alcohol users. In addition, the role of health professionals in encouraging smokers to quit smoking should not be ignored.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND & AIM: Smoking is a major risk factor for multiple gastrointestinal cancers, and adversely affects peptic ulcer disease, gastroesophageal reflux, pancreatitis and Crohn's disease. Despite key recommendations for diagnosing and treating tobacco use disorder in healthcare settings, the degree to which this is implemented in Gastroenterology (GI) clinics is unknown. We aimed to assess our providers' practices, identify barriers for implementing evidence-based smoking cessation treatments, and address these barriers by implementing a novel low-burden point of care Electronic health record-enabled evidence-based tobacco treatment (ELEVATE), in GI clinics. METHODS: An online survey was distributed to clinic gastroenterologists. ELEVATE module training was implemented in 1/2021. Data were evaluated during pre (7/2020-12/2020) and post (1/2021-12/2021) implementation periods to evaluate the reach and effectiveness of ELEVATE. Generalized estimating equations (GEE) were used to generate rate ratios (RR) to evaluate the intervention. RESULTS: 91% (20/22) of GI physicians responded to our survey, and only 20% often assisted patients who smoke with counseling. Lack of a systematic program to offer help to patients was reported by 80% of providers as an extremely/very important barrier limiting their smoking cessation practices. The proportion of current patients who smoke receiving cessation treatment increased from pre-ELEVATE to post-ELEVATE (14.36-27.47%, RR = 1.90, 95% CI 1.60-2.26, p < .001). Post-ELEVATE, 14.4% (38/264) of patients with treatment quit smoking, compared to 7.9% (55/697) of patients without treatment (RR = 1.89, 95% CI 1.26-2.82, p = .0021). CONCLUSION: Smoking practices are frequently assessed in GI clinics but barriers limiting cessation treatment exist. The use of a low burden point of care EHR enabled smoking cessation treatment module has led to a significant improvement in the treatment of smoking and subsequent cessation in our clinics. This study sheds light on an often under-recognized source of morbidity in GI patients and identifies an efficient, effective, and scalable strategy to combat tobacco use and improve clinical outcomes in our patients.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Smoking cessation is an essential, but often overlooked aspect of diabetes management. Despite the need for tailored smoking cessation support for individuals with diabetes, evidence of effective interventions for this cohort is limited. Additionally, individuals with diabetes do not easily adopt such interventions, resulting in low uptake and abstinence rates. This protocol describes a study that aims to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a unique smoking cessation intervention, based on the best evidence, theory and the needs of individuals with diabetes, among patients and service providers, the diabetes nurse educators. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This is an open-label pragmatic randomised controlled trial. Between 80 and 100 individuals with type 1 or type 2 diabetes who smoke will be recruited from the diabetes outpatients at the main acute public hospital in Malta, starting in August 2023. Participants will be randomly assigned (1:1 ratio) to the intervention or control arm for 12 weeks. The experimental intervention will consist of three to four smoking cessation behavioural support sessions based on the 5As (Ask, Advise, Assess, Assist and Arrange) algorithm, and a 6-week supply of nicotine replacement therapy. The control intervention will consist of an active referral to the Maltese National Health Service's one-to-one smoking cessation support service, which is based on motivational interviewing. The primary feasibility and acceptability outcomes include the recruitment and participation rates, resources used, problems identified by the nurses, the nurses' perceived challenges and facilitators to implementation and the nurses' and patients' acceptability of the study intervention. Data analyses will be descriptive, with quantitative feasibility and acceptability outcomes reported with 95% confidence intervals. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethical clearance was obtained from the Faculty of Health Sciences Research Ethics Committee, University of Malta. The study results will be disseminated through conference presentations and a publication in a peer-reviewed journal. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT05920096.

RESUMO

This review delves into the application and effectiveness of Very Brief Advice (VBA) for smoking cessation in Denmark's healthcare system. Despite some evidence, VBA's support remains limited, adopted by only a few hospitals and overlooked by many healthcare professionals. To enhance cessation efforts, we recommend elevating its status from optional to mandatory. Underlining VBA's significance as a referral catalyst is pivotal to ensuring its sustained influence within the broader cessation strategy.

RESUMO

Smoking has multiple negative effects on health; therefore, the Taiwanese government provides smoking cessation clinics to smokers. This study aimed to explore the trajectory of smoking cessation after smokers received treatment and the variables related to different trajectories. A retrospective longitudinal study was conducted, in which 735 adult smokers who received smoking cessation medications were recruited. The participants' demographic characteristics, chronic diseases, smoking characteristics, and cigarette dependence were collected from chart review. The amount of smoking was collected at baseline, and at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after treatment. The Proc Traj procedure for group-based modeling and multinomial logistic regression were used for statistical analysis. Three trajectories were identified: early quitters (28.03%), late quitters (11.43%) and reducers (60.54%). Compared with early quitters, reducers were younger and had a higher probability of severe cigarette dependence. Compared with early quitters, late quitters had a higher number of taking smoking cessation medications. The findings revealed that approximately 60% of participants who received smoking cessation treatment could not completely quit smoking, and that age, number of medications taken, and cigarette dependence were significant predictors of different trajectories.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Smoking cessation interventions are underutilized in the surgical setting. We aimed to systematically identify the barriers and facilitators to smoking cessation in the surgical setting. METHODS: Following the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) framework for scoping reviews, we searched 5 databases (MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane CENTRAL, CINAHL, and PsycINFO) for quantitative or qualitative studies published in English (since 2000) evaluating barriers and facilitators to perioperative smoking cessation interventions. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis and mapped to the theoretical domains framework (TDF). RESULTS: From 31 studies, we identified 23 unique barriers and 13 facilitators mapped to 11 of the 14 TDF domains. The barriers were within the domains of knowledge (e.g., inadequate knowledge of smoking cessation interventions) in 23 (74.2%) studies; environmental context and resources (e.g., lack of time to deliver smoking cessation interventions) in 19 (61.3%) studies; beliefs about capabilities (e.g., belief that patients are nervous about surgery/diagnosis) in 14 (45.2%) studies; and social/professional role and identity (e.g., surgeons do not believe it is their role to provide smoking cessation interventions) in 8 (25.8%) studies. Facilitators were mainly within the domains of environmental context and resources (e.g., provision of quit smoking advice as routine surgical care) in 15 (48.4%) studies, reinforcement (e.g., surgery itself as a motivator to kickstart quit attempts) in 8 (25.8%) studies, and skills (e.g., smoking cessation training and awareness of guidelines) in 5 (16.2%) studies. CONCLUSION: The identified barriers and facilitators are actionable targets for future studies aimed at translating evidence informed smoking cessation interventions into practice in perioperative settings. More research is needed to evaluate how targeting these barriers and facilitators will impact smoking outcomes.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Electronic (e-)cigarettes may help adult cigarette smokers achieve cigarette cessation, depending on patterns of e-cigarette use. Among cigarette smokers who do not use e-cigarettes, it is unclear if and how a-priori intentions for use are related to uptake patterns. Longitudinal studies have focused on established e-cigarette users or adolescent and young adult populations exclusively. METHODS: Within a nationwide randomized clinical trial (N = 638), adult cigarette smokers not currently using e-cigarettes were randomized (2:1) to receive (or not) one-month sampling of e-cigarettes. An exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was performed on an established 15-item measure assessing a-priori intentions for e-cigarette use to identify latent variables. Among those receiving e-cigarette products, regression models examined relationships between intentions and: 1) uptake (yes/no), 2) frequency (number of days per week), and 3) amount (puffing episodes per day) of e-cigarette use at one-month follow-up. RESULTS: Two factors emerged from the EFA: 1) cigarette-related intentions (e.g., cigarette cessation, no smell) and 2) novel appeal of e-cigarettes (e.g., flavors). Three items remained and were treated as separate intentions: "feels like cigarette smoking", "curiosity", and "affordability". In the final multivariable models, "feel like cigarette smoking" predicted more frequent e-cigarette use (ß = 0.187, SE = 0.086, p = 0.03); however, none of the five factors/intentions were significantly associated with uptake or amount of use. CONCLUSIONS: For adult cigarette smokers not currently using e-cigarettes, a-priori intentions for using e-cigarettes might not be predictive of if or how these products will be used in the future, suggesting that motives may not drive use behavior.

RESUMO

SMOKING AND TUBERCULOSIS. Tuberculosis and smoking are responsible for high mortality worldwide. Tuberculosis causes 9 million incident cases and 1.6 million deaths every year. Smoking increases the risk of infection by Mycobacterium tuberculosis and of severe tuberculosis disease with death or recurrence. Cessation of smoking improves the course of the disease, promoting adherence to anti-tuberculosis treatment and definitive cure. All health-care professionals involved in tuberculosis care must be involved to help smokers with tuberculosis to quit.


TABAC ET TUBERCULOSE. La tuberculose et le tabagisme sont à l'origine d'une importante mortalité dans le monde. La tuberculose cause 9 millions de cas incidents et 1,6 million de décès chaque année. Le tabagisme augmente les risques d'infection par Mycobacterium tuberculosis et de tuberculose maladie sévère avec décès ou récidive. L'arrêt du tabac améliore le cours de l'infection, favorisant l'adhésion des patients au traitement antituberculeux et la guérison définitive. Tous les professionnels de santé doivent s'investir dans la mission d'aide à l'arrêt du tabac des fumeurs atteints de tuberculose.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Describe the screening, referral, and treatment delivery associated with an opt-out tobacco treatment program (TTP) implemented in six hospitals varying in size, rurality and patient populations. METHODS: Between March 6, 2021 and December 17, 2021, adult patients (≥ 18 years) admitted to six hospitals affiliated with the Medical University of South Carolina were screened for smoking status. The hospitals ranged in size from 82 to 715 beds. Those currently smoking were automatically referred to one of two tobacco treatment options: 1) Enhanced care (EC) where patients could receive a bedside consult by a trained tobacco treatment specialist plus an automated post-discharge follow-up call designed to connect those smoking to the South Carolina Quitline (SCQL); or 2) Basic care (BC) consisting of the post-discharge follow-up call only. An attempt was made to survey patients at 6-weeks after hospitalization to assess smoking status. RESULTS: Smoking prevalence ranged from 14 to 49% across the six hospitals; 6,000 patients were referred to the TTP.The delivery of the bedside consult varied across the hospitals with the lowest in the Charleston hospitals which had the highest caseload of referred patients per specialist. Among patients who received a consult visit during their hospitalization, 50% accepted the consult, 8% opted out, 3% claimed not to be current smokers, and 38% were unavailable at the time of the consult visit. Most of those enrolled in the TTP were long-term daily smokers.Forty-three percent of patients eligible for the automated post-discharge follow-up call answered the call, of those, 61% reported smoking in the past seven days, and of those, 34% accepted the referral to theSCQL. Among the 986 of patients surveyed at 6-weeks after hospitalization quit rates ranged from 20%-30% based on duration of reported cessation and were similar between hospitals and for patients assigned to EC versus BC intervention groups. CONCLUSION: Findings demonstrate the broad reach of an opt-out TTP. Elements of treatment delivery can be improved by addressing patient-to-staffing ratios, improving systems to prescribe stop smoking medications for patients at discharge and linking patients to stop smoking services after hospital discharge.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To assess cigarette demand among Chinese smokers through a cigarette purchase task (CPT) and to evaluate cigarette prices under different hypothetical scenarios in order to meet the goals of smoking prevalence reduction in China. METHODS: In the study, 447 participants completed a hypothetical CPT at baseline assessments of a trial, thus, cigarette demand curves were individually fitted for each participant using an exponentiated version of the exponential demand model. Typically, five demand indices were derived, intensity (consumption when free), breakpoint (first price at which consumption is suppressed to 0), maximum output (Omax), maximum price (Pmax, price at which Omax occurred), and elasticity (the ratio of the change in quantity demanded to the change in price). A one-way analysis of variance was used to explore the correlations between the cigarette purchase task indices and socio-demographic and smoking characteristics. The one-way decay model was employed to simulate the smoking cessation rates and determine optimal cigarette prices in a series of scenarios for achieving 20% smoking prevalence. RESULTS: The price elasticity drawn from CPT was 0.54, indicating that a 10% price increase could reduce smoking by 5.4% in the participated smokers. Smokers with higher income were less sensitive to cigarette prices (elasticity=-2.31, P=0.028). Cigarette purchase task indices varied significantly among the smokers with different prices of commonly used cigarettes, tobacco dependence, and smoking volume. The smokers who consumed cigarettes of higher prices reported higher breakpoint, Omax and Pmax, but lower intensity (P=0.001). The smokers who were moderately or highly nicotine dependent reported higher intensity, breakpoint, Omax and Pmax, and they had lower intensity (P=0.001). The smokers who had a higher volume of cigarettes reported higher intensity and Omax, and lower intensity (P < 0.001). To achieve the goal of reducing smoking prevalence to 20% in mainland China, we estimated the desired increase on smoking cessation rate and prices accordingly in a series of scenarios, considering the gender variance and reduced smoking initiation. In scenario (a), to achieve a smoking prevalence goal of 20%, it would be necessary for 24.81% of the current smokers to quit smoking when there were no new smokers. Our fitting model yielded a corresponding value of 59.64 yuan (95%CI 53.13-67.24). Given the assumption in scenario (b) that only males quitted smoking, the desired cessation rates would be 25.82%, with a higher corresponding price of 62.15 yuan (95%CI 55.40-70.06) to induce desired cessation rates. In the proposed scenario (c) where 40 percent of the reduction in smoking prevalence came from reduced smoking initiation, and females and males equally quitted smoking due to increased cigarette prices, the price of a pack of cigarettes would be at least 37.36 yuan (95%CI 32.32-42.69) (equals to $ 5.20) per pack to achieve the cessation rate of 14.89 percent. In scenario (d) where only males quitted smoking due to increased cigarette prices considering the reduced smoking initiation, the respective smoking cessation rates should be 15.49% with the desired prices of 38.60 yuan (95%CI 33.53-44.02). After adjusting for education levels and income levels in scenario (c), the price of cigarettes would be at least 37.37 yuan/pack (equals to $ 5.20) (95%CI 30.73-44.94) and 37.84 yuan/pack (equals to $ 5.26) (95%CI 31.94-44.53), respectively. CONCLUSION: Cigarette purchase task indices are significantly associated with income levels and prices of commonly used cigarettes, levels of tobacco dependence, and smoking volume, which is inspiring in studying price factors that influence smoking behavior. It is suggested that higher cigarette prices, surpassing the current actual market level, is imperative in mainland China. Stronger policy stra-tegies should be taken to increase tobacco taxes and retail cigarette prices to achieve the Healthy China 2030 goal of reducing smoking prevalence to 20%.
