Mentholated cigarette use was studied in relation to age and race in 29,037 current smokers who were Kaiser Permanente Medical Care Program members. The percentages of mentholated cigarette users were much higher in Blacks and Asians than in Whites, especially in the younger age groups. A marked inverse relationship between mentholated cigarette use and age was present in Blacks and Asians; mentholated cigarette use showed little difference with age in Whites. 相似文献

Parental cigarette smoking and the risk of spontaneous abortion. 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Although cigarette smoking is often considered a risk factor for spontaneous abortion, the epidemiologic literature is actually inconsistent. Therefore, the authors examined maternal and paternal smoking and maternal passive smoke exposure using data from a large case-control study of spontaneous abortion (626 cases and 1,300 controls) conducted in Santa Clara County, California, in 1986 and 1987. No excess risk of spontaneous abortion was seen in the 1% of women who smoked an average of more than 20 cigarettes per day in the first trimester. Moderate smokers (11-20 cigarettes per day) had a slightly elevated crude odds ratio of 1.3 (95% confidence interval 0.9-1.9), which was close to unity after adjustment for covariates. Paternal smoking showed a slight crude elevation for moderate and heavy smoking, but no association after adjustment. In contrast, maternal exposure to environmental tobacco smoke for 1 hour or more per day was associated with spontaneous abortion, even after adjustment (odds ratio = 1.5, 95% confidence interval 1.2-1.9). For both maternal direct and environmental exposure, the association appeared to be stronger in second-trimester abortions. Several studies have found stronger associations of smoking with late versus early abortions, perhaps reflecting smoking-associated placental insufficiency and fetal hypoxia. 相似文献

The association between maternal smoking and the occurrence of tubal pregnancy was evaluated in a population-based case-control study of members of the Group Health Cooperative of Puget Sound, Seattle, Washington. Women hospitalized with tubal pregnancy from October 1981 through September 1986 (n = 274) were compared with reproductive-age women who were at risk of becoming pregnant during the same time period (n = 727). The relative risk of tubal pregnancy associated with ever having smoked cigarettes was 1.3 (95% confidence interval (CI) 1.0-1.8). Compared with women who had never smoked, those who smoked at the time of conception had a 40% increase in the risk of tubal pregnancy (95% CI 1.0-2.0). These results support earlier epidemiologic and nonepidemiologic reports of a greater risk of tubal pregnancy associated with current or recent maternal cigarette smoking. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Although previous studies have found that maternal smoking decreases the risk of pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH), the difference of this effect between primiparous and multiparous women has not been well studied and the results of the exposure-response relationships between maternal smoking and PIH are inconsistent. No previous study has specifically examined the relationship between maternal smoking and eclampsia. METHODS: We analysed data from a population-based retrospective cohort study of 3 153 944 singleton pregnancies in the US. The data were derived from the national linked birth/infant mortality database for 1998. Multiple logistic regressions were used to describe the relationship between cigarette smoking and PIH and eclampsia. RESULTS: The adjusted odds ratios (ORs) [95% confidence intervals (95% CIs)] for PIH were 0.80 (0.77-0.83) for primiparous women and 0.81 (0.78-0.83) for multiparous women among smokers compared with non-smokers. The corresponding adjusted ORs (95% CIs) for eclampsia were 0.74 (0.66-0.82) and 0.75 (0.68-0.83), respectively. For PIH, the adjusted OR (95% CI) for smokers vs non-smokers were 0.82 (0.79-0.86), 0.81 (0.78-0.83), 0.80 (0.77-0.83), and 0.88 (0.79-0.98), respectively, for 1-5, 6-10, 11-20, and >20 cigarettes per day (test for trend: P = 0.86). The corresponding figures for eclampsia were 0.85 (0.75-0.95), 0.74 (0.66-0.82), 0.68 (0.58-0.78), and 0.73 (0.49-1.04), respectively (test for trend: P = 0.02). CONCLUSION: Maternal cigarette smoking decreases the risk of PIH and eclampsia, with a significant inverse exposure-response relationship apparent for eclampsia. 相似文献

The morbidity and mortality associated with cigarette smoking is shifting from the developed world to developing countries, especially developing Arab countries. One such country is Egypt, which has the highest rate of tobacco consumption in the Arab world. To curb the rising smoking epidemic in Egypt, appropriate adolescent smoking prevention programs need to be developed. Most of the effective adolescent smoking prevention programs are based on the social influence approach, which targets the proximal psychosocial variables believed to promote adolescent smoking. However, most of our understanding of adolescents' psychosocial smoking risk factors is based mainly on Western studies. Whether these factors have the same influence on Egyptian adolescents' smoking behavior has not been investigated to date. An understanding of the psychosocial correlates of smoking behavior among Egyptian adolescents may help in designing the appropriate smoking prevention program aimed at this population. This study reports the results of a cross-sectional survey administered to a random sample of 1930 students in grades 7, 9 and 12 in the city of Alexandria, Egypt, in May 2003. Adolescent smoking behavior was positively associated with positive beliefs about smoking, sibling, parent and peer smoking, and social smoking norms, with sibling smoking and perceived adult smoking norms having a stronger influence on adolescents' smoking behavior than peer smoking and perceived peer smoking norms. Refusal self-efficacy was protective against smoking behavior, while knowledge of the short-term negative consequences of smoking was protective against susceptibility to future smoking among females only. The results suggest that adolescents from collective cultures, like Egypt, are more influenced by their family's smoking behavior and perceived adult smoking norms than their peers' smoking behavior and perceived peer smoking norms. Smoking prevention programs aimed at Egyptian adolescents should be accompanied by smoking cessation programs for the family and adult community members. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES. Further information is needed on modifiable factors associated with the occurrence of acute pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). Cigarette smoking has been implicated as a risk factor for PID sequelae, but the association between smoking and PID has yet to be fully examined. METHODS. We conducted a population-based case-control study to evaluate smoking as a risk factor for acute PID. The case patients (n = 131) were women health maintenance organization (HMO) enrollees between the ages of 18 and 40 years who were treated for a first episode of PID. The control patients (n = 294) were randomly selected from the HMO enrollment files. RESULTS. Relative to never smokers, current smokers were at increased risk of PID. Women who smoked 10 or more cigarettes per day had a higher risk than did those who smoked less. Available data indicate that smoking status is not serving as a marker for uncontrolled confounding by lifestyle factors. CONCLUSIONS. Our study results suggest that smoking represents a modifiable risk factor for acute PID. 相似文献

As part of a case-control study of ectopic pregnancy, we evaluated the potential etiologic role of cigarette smoking. Maternal cigarette smoking at the time of conception was associated with an increased risk of ectopic pregnancy with a dose-response relationship (adjusted odds ratios: 1.30 to 2.49). On the other hand, partner's smoking was not associated with ectopic pregnancy. The study provides a supplementary argument towards a causal effect of smoking in the development of ectopic pregnancy. 相似文献

We provide evidence for the causal relationship between unemployment insurance (UI) and individuals’ smoking behavior using the 1995–2011 Current Population Survey-Tobacco Use Supplement data. Our identification relies on the exploitation of the exogenous variations of the maximum UI weekly benefits across states and over years. Instead of focusing on all unemployed people, we concentrate on those who are eligible for UI benefits. We find that when the maximum UI weekly benefit level increases by $100, smoking cessation increases by approximately 2.9 percentage points among the UI-eligible unemployed. The results are robust to various model specifications. We also explore the mechanism and find suggestive evidence that the increase in the maximum UI weekly benefit leads to a decrease in the probability of over-work of the respective spouse. Moreover, the unemployed who are less educated are more responsive to the increasing UI benefits. 相似文献

Whitcomb BW, Bodach SD, Mumford SL, Perkins NJ, Trevisan M, Wactawski‐Wende J, Liu A, Schisterman F. Ovarian function and cigarette smoking. Paediatric and Perinatal Epidemiology 2010. Cigarette smoking has been implicated in reproductive outcomes including delayed conception, but mechanisms underlying these associations remain unclear. One potential mechanism is the effect of cigarette smoking on reproductive hormones; however, studies evaluating associations between smoking and hormone levels are complicated by variability of hormones and timing of specimen collection. We evaluated smoking among women participating in the BioCycle Study, a longitudinal study of menstrual cycle function in healthy, premenopausal, regularly menstruating women (n = 259). Fertility monitors were used to help guide timing of specimen collection. Serum levels of oestradiol, progesterone, follicle‐stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinising hormone (LH) and total sex‐hormone binding globulin (SHBG) across phases of the menstrual cycle were compared between smokers and non‐smokers. We observed statistically significant phase‐specific differences in hormone levels between smokers and non‐smokers. Compared with non‐smokers, smokers had higher levels of FSH in the early follicular phase and higher LH at menses after adjusting for potential confounding factors of age, race, body mass index, parity, vigorous exercise, and alcohol and caffeine intake through inverse probability of treatment weights. No statistically significant differences were observed for oestradiol, progesterone or SHBG. These phase‐specific differences in levels of LH and FSH in healthy, regularly menstruating women who are current smokers compared with non‐smokers reflect one mechanism by which smoking may influence fertility and reproductive health. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to determine the rate of the decline in risk of a major coronary event after quitting cigarette smoking. It was a population-based case-control study of men and women aged 35 to 69 years in Newcastle, Australia, and men and women aged 35 to 64 years in Auckland, New Zealand, between 1986 and 1994. Cases were 5,572 people identified in population registers of coronary events and controls were 6,268 participants in independent community-based risk factor prevalence surveys from the same study populations. There was a rapid reduction in risk after quitting cigarette smoking. The risk of suffering a major coronary event for men who were current cigarette smokers was 3.5 (95% CI 3.0–4.0) times higher than the risk for never smokers but this fell to 1.5 (95% CI 1.1–1.9) for men who had quit for 1–3 years. Women who were current cigarette smokers were 4.8 (95% CI 4.0–5.9) times more likely to suffer a major coronary event than never smokers and this fell to 1.6 (95% CI 1.0–2.5) for women who had quit for 1–3 years. Those who had quit cigarette smoking for 4–6 years or more had a similar risk to never smokers. These results reinforce the importance of smoking cessation. The public health message is that the benefit of giving up smoking occurs rapidly. 相似文献

The effect of cigarette smoking on the risk of preeclampsia and gestational hypertension 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This case-control study assessed the relation of cigarette smoking during pregnancy to the risk of preeclampsia and gestational hypertension. All subjects were primiparous women without a history of high blood pressure who gave birth in Quebec City or Montreal, Canada, hospitals between 1984 and 1986. Cases (172 women with preeclampsia and 251 with gestational hypertension) and 505 controls were interviewed at the hospital after delivery. Adjusted relative risks were estimated by polychotomous logistic regression. Compared with women who had never smoked, women who were smokers at the onset of pregnancy had a reduced risk of preeclampsia (relative risk = 0.51, 95% confidence interval 0.34-0.77). Relative risks of preeclampsia decreased with increases in the number of cigarettes smoked daily at the onset of pregnancy: Relative risks among smokers of less than 11, 11-20, and more than 20 cigarettes per day were 0.79, 0.56, and 0.38, respectively (test for trend: p = 0.0002). The protective effect of smoking on preeclampsia was stronger for women who continued to smoke after 20 weeks of pregnancy. While smoking tended to reduce the risk of gestational hypertension, this effect was less evident than that for preeclampsia. Relative risks varied little with severity of disease as based on gestational age at the onset of hypertension, maximal blood pressure and, for preeclampsia, amount of proteinuria. The reduction in mean birth weight attributable to smoking during pregnancy was similar among cases and controls. Nicotine inhibition of thromboxane A2 production might explain the decreased risk of pregnancy-induced hypertension among smokers. Despite these findings, the harmful consequences of smoking on pregnancy outcome outweigh its protective effect against pregnancy-induced hypertension. 相似文献

The results of previous epidemiologic research on the possible association between maternal smoking during pregnancy and risk of oral clefts in offspring have been inconsistent. This may be due in part to methodological limitations, including imprecise measurement of tobacco use, failure to consider etiologic heterogeneity among types of oral clefts, and confounding. This analysis, based on a large case-control study, further evaluated the effect of first trimester maternal smoking on oral facial cleft risk by examining the dose-response relationship according to specific cleft type and according to whether or not additional malformations were present. A number of factors, including dietary and supplemental folate intake and family history of clefts, were evaluated as potential confounders and effect modifiers. Data on 3,774 mothers interviewed between 1976 and 1992 by the Slone Epidemiology Unit Birth Defects Study were used. Study subjects were actively ascertained from sites in areas around Boston, Massachusetts and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; the state of Iowa; and southeastern Ontario, Canada. Cases were infants with isolated defects--cleft lip alone (n = 334), cleft lip and palate (n = 494), or cleft palate alone (n = 244)--and infants with clefts plus (+) additional malformations: cleft lip+ (n = 58), cleft lip and palate+ (n = 140), or cleft palate+ (n = 209). Controls were infants with defects other than clefts, excluding defects possibly associated with maternal cigarette use. There were no associations with maternal smoking for any oral cleft group, except for a positive dose response among infants with cleft lip and palate+ (for light smokers, odds ratio (OR) = 1.09 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.6, 1.9); for moderate smokers, OR = 1.84 (95% CI: 1.2, 2.9); and for heavy smokers, OR = 1.85 (95% CI: 1.0, 3.5), relative to nonsmokers). This finding may be related to the additional malformations rather than to the cleft itself. 相似文献

The authors evaluated alcohol drinking and cigarette smoking in relation to risk of colorectal polyps in a Nashville, Tennessee, colonoscopy-based case-control study. In 2003-2005, cases with adenomatous polyps only (n = 639), hyperplastic polyps only (n = 294), and both types of polyps (n = 235) were compared with 1,773 polyp-free controls. Unordered polytomous logistic regression was used to calculate adjusted odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals. Consumption of at least five alcoholic drinks per week was not strongly associated with development of polyps. Odds ratios for all polyp types were increased for dose, duration, and pack-years of cigarette smoking and were stronger for hyperplastic polyps than for adenoma. Compared with never smoking, dose-response relations were particularly strong for current smoking and duration; for > or =35 years of smoking, odds ratios were 1.9 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.4, 2.5) for adenomatous polyps only, 5.0 (95% CI: 3.3, 7.3) for hyperplastic polyps only, and 6.9 (95% CI: 4.4, 11.1) for both types of polyps. Compared with current smoking, time since cessation was associated with substantially reduced odds; for > or =20 years since quitting, odds ratios were 0.4 (95% CI: 0.3, 0.6) for adenoma only, 0.2 (95% CI: 0.1, 0.3) for hyperplastic polyps only, and 0.2 (95% CI: 0.2, 0.4) for both polyp types. These findings support the adverse role of cigarette smoking in colorectal tumorigenesis and suggest that quitting smoking may substantially reduce the risk of colorectal polyps. 相似文献

Maternal cigarette smoking and pregnancy outcome 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Maternal smoking rates in pregnancy have declined, particularly in the non-manual social classes, and perinatal mortality rates have fallen over the last 20 years. We have therefore re-evaluated the relationship between maternal cigarette smoking and pregnancy outcome against this background. A total of 608 stillbirths and 634 infant deaths were identified using the All Wales Perinatal Survey. The cause of death was classified using the clinicopathological system. Maternal smoking rates and social class groupings were compared with those in a cohort of 16047 survivors born to women resident in South Glamorgan. The smoking rate was 37.8% in mothers of babies who died compared with 27.2% in mothers of survivors, an odds ratio (OR) of 1.63 [95% CI 1.44, 1.84]. The OR for unexplained stillbirth was 1.72 [95% CI 1.38, 2.13], placental abruption 2.07 [95% CI 1.29, 3.31], infection 3.70 [95% CI 2.23, 6.13] and sudden infant death syndrome 4.84 [95% CI 3.05, 7.69]. Maternal smoking was not associated with death due to prematurity or a congenital anomaly. Despite changes in smoking habits and the causes of perinatal death, smoking during pregnancy continues to be strongly associated with fetal and infant mortality. It is important that health promotion activities are effective in reducing smoking during pregnancy. 相似文献

BACKGROUND. A population-based sample of 893 white women ages 25 to 59 years from five San Francisco, California, Bay Area counties were queried about their demographic characteristics, height, reported weight at age 25, cigarette smoking history, and oral contraceptive and sunscreen use. METHODS. Multiple logistic regression techniques were used to analyze the data. Forty-three percent of the women in the sample had never smoked more than 100 cigarettes, while 27% were current and 30% were former smokers. Separated or divorced women were more likely to have ever smoked. RESULTS. Women who were less educated, single, separated, or divorced or had smoked between 10 and 30 cigarettes per day were less likely to quit smoking. Women with less education and a longer history of smoking smoked more cigarettes per day. Women who had never smoked were more likely to use sunscreen and to report their weight as slightly less at age 25 than were smokers. 相似文献
