To determine whether cigarette smokers in New Jersey substituted cigars following a cigarette excise tax increase.
We examined data from New Jersey's 2001 and 2002 Adult Tobacco Survey (NJATS). Adjusted odds ratios were generated for ever and current cigar use, controlling for demographics and cigarette smoking status.
Males, whites, ever cigarette smokers, and those with higher education reported greater ever and current cigar use in both years. The adjusted odds for cigar use among recent quitters were higher in 2002 than in 2001.
When other tobacco products' excise taxes fail to keep pace with cigarettes, there is a real potential for product substitution. Cessation of all tobacco products is necessary for the best public health outcome.
确定新泽西州的吸烟者在卷烟消费税提高后是否会改用雪茄。
我们研究了新泽西州2001年和2002年成人烟草调查(NJATS)的数据。针对曾经和当前使用雪茄的情况生成了调整后的优势比,并对人口统计学和吸烟状况进行了控制。
男性、白人、曾经吸烟的人以及受过高等教育的人在这两年中报告的曾经和当前使用雪茄的情况更多。2002年近期戒烟者中使用雪茄的调整后优势比高于2001年。
当其他烟草产品的消费税跟不上卷烟时,确实存在产品替代的可能性。为了实现最佳的公共卫生结果,必须全面戒烟。
