Tobacco smoking is a major public health issue. One in two lifelong smokers will die from a disease related to tobacco use. Recent data show an increase in the prevalence of smoking in the lowest socioeconomic population. It induces a higher morbidity and mortality in this group of people than in the general population; however, stopping smoking induces an equal benefit in terms of reducing disease and mortality for everyone. Improving tobacco control requires a greater understanding of smoking and cessation in this population. The aim of this article is to review the relationship between socioeconomic status and smoking cessation. Outcomes about the intentions and behaviour of stopping and maintaining abstinence are presented. Some ways to improve smoking cessation in lower socioeconomic smokers are proposed.
吸烟是一个重大的公共卫生问题。每两名终身吸烟者中就有一人会死于与烟草使用相关的疾病。最近的数据显示，社会经济地位最低的人群中吸烟率有所上升。与普通人群相比，这一人群的发病率和死亡率更高；然而，戒烟对每个人在减少疾病和死亡率方面带来的益处是相同的。加强烟草控制需要更深入了解这一人群的吸烟和戒烟情况。本文旨在综述社会经济地位与戒烟之间的关系。文中呈现了关于戒烟意图、行为以及维持戒烟状态的结果。还提出了一些改善社会经济地位较低的吸烟者戒烟情况的方法。
