We conducted a phone survey of 1,669 San Francisco Hispanics ages 15 to 64 years. The age-adjusted overall smoking prevalence was 25.4 per cent (95% CI = 23.3, 27.5) with more men (32.4 per cent) smoking than women (16.8 per cent). Age-adjusted smoking rates were higher among the less acculturated males (37.5 vs 26.7 per cent) and among the more acculturated females (22.6 vs 13.6 per cent). The more acculturated, however, smoked a greater number of cigarettes per day independent of gender. Community-based smoking cessation interventions, adapted to local conditions, may have a greater potential for success among Hispanics.
我们对1669名年龄在15至64岁之间的旧金山西班牙裔进行了电话调查。年龄调整后的总体吸烟率为25.4%(95%置信区间 = 23.3,27.5),男性吸烟率(32.4%)高于女性(16.8%)。在文化适应程度较低的男性中(37.5%对26.7%)以及文化适应程度较高的女性中(22.6%对13.6%),年龄调整后的吸烟率更高。然而,无论性别如何,文化适应程度较高的人每天吸烟的数量更多。基于社区的戒烟干预措施,若因地制宜,可能在西班牙裔人群中取得更大的成功。
