Background: Tobacco control efforts implemented in the United States since 1960s have led to considerable reductions smoking and smoking-related diseases, including lung cancer. Objective: To project tobacco use cancer mortality from 2015 2065 due existing efforts. Design: Comparative modeling approach using 4 simulation models of natural history that explicitly relate temporal patterns rates. Setting: U.S. population, 1964 2065. Participants: Adults aged 30 84 years. Measurements: Models...
IntroductionLittle is known about how U.S. smoking patterns of initiation, cessation, and intensity vary by birth cohort across education levels or these may be driven other demographic characteristics.MethodsSmoking data for adults aged ≥25 years was obtained from the National Health Interview Surveys 1966–2018. Age-period-cohort models were developed to estimate probabilities intensity, prevalence age, cohort, calendar year, gender levels: ≤8th grade, 9th–11th high school graduate GED,...
U.S. smoking prevalence varies greatly by race/ethnicity. However, little is known about how initiation, cessation, and intensity vary birth cohort
Electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) use has increased rapidly in recent years. Given the unknown effects of e-cigarette on smoking behaviors, regulation become subject considerable controversy. In absence longitudinal data documenting long-term behavior and population outcomes, computational models can guide future empirical research provide insights into possible prevalence over time.
It is unknown how recent changes in the tobacco product marketplace have impacted transitions cigarette and electronic nicotine delivery system (ENDS) use.
Introduction Smoking remains the leading cause of preventable death in USA but can be reduced through policy interventions. Computational models smoking provide estimates projected impact tobacco control policies and used to inform public health decision making. We outline a protocol for simulating effects on population outcomes. Methods analysis extend History Generator (SHG), microsimulation model based data from National Health Interview Surveys, evaluate projections prevalence mortality...
Nicotine vaping products (NVPs) are increasingly popular worldwide. They may provide public health benefits if used as a substitute for smoking, but create harms gateway to smoking or discourage cessation. This paper presents the Smoking and Vaping Model (SAVM), user-friendly model which estimates implications of NVPs in USA. SAVM adopts cohort approach. We derive by comparing smoking- NVP-attributable deaths life-years lost under No-NVP an NVP Scenario. The Scenario projects current,...
The public health impact of nicotine vaping products (NVPs) is subject to a complex set uncertain transitions between NVP and cigarette use. Instead, we apply an indirect method gauge the use on smoking prevalence smoking-attributable deaths (SADs) using well-established
Abstract Introduction The US Food and Drug Administration announced its intention to ban menthol in cigarettes. However, information is needed on how a federal would affect population health. Aims Methods We conducted an expert elicitation gauge the impact of cigarette cigar United States. developed pilot tested questionnaire that focused tobacco use transitions current smokers (age 18–24 menthol, age 35–54 nonmenthol) potential 12–24). Using structured elicitation, we estimated mean net...
We examine the trajectory of adult smoking prevalence in United States over period 1990-2014 to investigate whether cessation rate has changed during this period.We employ a dynamic model prevalence, and data from National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) on Drug Use (NSDUH), estimate 6-year intervals. use weighted nonlinear least squares perform estimation. then meta-regression test increased.The annual increased 2.4% 1990 4.5% 2014 according NHIS data, 3.2% 2002 4.2% NSDUH data. The...
A selected germplasm of scratchgrass (<i>Muhlenbergia asperifolia</i> (Nees & Meyen ex Trin.) [Poaceae]) has been released for restoration and rehabilitation riparian systems, wildlife habitat improvement, disturbed areas, increasing plant diversity along the Virgin River other lands in southern Nevada.
<h3>Background</h3> Namibia is typical of low-income and middle-income countries with growing tobacco use, but limited capacity to impose comprehensive control legislation. Despite initiating dialogue on national policy in 1991, the country took nearly 20 years pass Tobacco Products Control Act. <h3>Objective</h3> To use as a case study illustrate challenges faced by working forward <h3>Method</h3> Face-to-face telephonic interviews were conducted 13 bureaucrats advocates currently or...
ABSTRACT Background and aims Reports of youth e‐cigarette use often do not disaggregate by underlying smoking status. This study compared annual 2014–19 estimates past 30‐day prevalence frequency status in the United States. Design Nationally representative, cross‐sectional, school‐based survey [National Youth Tobacco Surveys (NYTS)]. General linear models accounting for complex design year, overall stratified frequency, separately high school (HS) middle (MS) students. The 2019 was analyzed...
U.S. smoking-related disparities persist, but data evaluating how smoking patterns across diverse populations have changed by birth cohort are lacking. Worldwide, continues to exact harm, especially low- and middle-income nations with less historical for analyses. The Cancer Intervention Surveillance Modeling Network Lung Working Group previously generated histories the whole population using an age, period, methodologic framework. These inputs been used in numerous models simulate future of...
