The purpose of this study was to describe trends in the prevalence of cigarette smoking between 1980 through 1982 and 1990 through 1992 in Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minn.
Three population-based surveys were conducted among adults 25 to 74 years of age in 1980 through 1982, 1985 through 1987, and 1990 through 1992.
Overall age-adjusted prevalences of cigarette smoking declined significantly between 1980-1982 and 1985-1987 and between 1985-1987 and 1990-1992. Serum thiocyanate, a biochemical marker for tobacco use, also declined significantly over the 3 periods.
Favorable trends in smoking prevalence and cigarette consumption among smokers were observed, but disturbing trends in some smoking behaviors were also noted.
本研究旨在描述1980年至1982年以及1990年至1992年期间,明尼苏达州明尼阿波利斯市和圣保罗市吸烟率的变化趋势。
在1980年至1982年、1985年至1987年以及1990年至1992年期间,对25至74岁的成年人进行了三项基于人群的调查。
在1980 - 1982年与1985 - 1987年之间以及1985 - 1987年与1990 - 1992年之间,经年龄调整后的总体吸烟率显著下降。血清硫氰酸盐作为烟草使用的生化标志物,在这三个时期也显著下降。
观察到吸烟率和吸烟者卷烟消费量呈有利趋势,但也注意到一些吸烟行为存在令人不安的趋势。
