High impact information on Tobacco Use Cessation

• Patients filled out baseline and follow-up questionnaires relating to lifestyle modifications, including statin utilization, diet, exercise, tobacco cessation and vitamin/antioxidant utilization [1].
• The results indicated tobacco cessation caused small and transient effects on plasma hormone levels which were not significantly influenced by nicotine replacement and were not related to other signs of withdrawal [2].
• CONCLUSIONS: Anti-tobacco media campaigns are a vital component of the National Action Plan for Tobacco Cessation [3].
• American College of Preventive Medicine practice policy. Tobacco-cessation patient counseling [4].
• RESULTS: Importance of PSA screening and tobacco cessation counseling were weakly associated with patients' receipt of preventive care; no association between attitudes and other services was observed [5].

Chemical compound and disease context of Tobacco Use Cessation

• Bupropion, a tobacco-cessation product, shares discriminative stimulus effects with cocaine and methamphetamine [6].
• Twelve months after intervention, 39% of the SF programme compared with 2% of the UC programme demonstrated cotinine validated tobacco cessation, representing a significant reduced relapse rate in the SF programme (chi2, P< 0.001) [7].
• The impact of caffeine use on tobacco cessation and withdrawal [8].
• All subjects received open-label bupropion SR, 300 mg daily, exercise instruction, and weekly behavioral counseling for tobacco cessation [9].
• Initial encounters with tobacco cessation on the Inpatient Substance Abuse Unit of the Medical College of Virginia [10].

Biological context of Tobacco Use Cessation

• RESULTS: Men were less likely than women to have received blood pressure screening (aOR 0.44;0.40-0.50), cholesterol screening (aOR 0.72;0.65-0.79), tobacco cessation counseling (aOR 0.66;0.55-0.78), and checkups (aOR 0.53;0.49-0.57) [11].

Gene context of Tobacco Use Cessation

• Thus, the present results do not support the use of ACTH as a treatment for tobacco cessation [12].
• The survey was administered to dentists recruited to participate in an evaluation of a CD-ROM and supportive electronic detailing to promote increased tobacco cessation activities [13].
• Logistic regression analyses showed that less nicotine dependence, as measured by the Fägerstrom Test of Nicotine Dependence, and greater age were associated with higher rates of tobacco cessation [14].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Tobacco Use Cessation

• After we developed and evaluated an interactive CD-ROM tobacco cessation training program, we evaluated the effect of using the program on the knowledge level and attitudes of forty-seven third-year dental students and thirty dental hygiene students and also obtained their opinions of program quality and utility [15].
