The impact of breastfeeding peer support for mothers aged under 25: A time series analysis
Breastfeeding has known positive health benefits for babies and mothers, yet the UK has one of the lowest breastfeeding initiation rates in Europe. Despite national guidance that recommends provision of breastfeeding peer support, there is conflicting evidence regarding its effectiveness, especially in high-income countries, and a lack of evidence among young mothers. This study evaluates the effectiveness of a breastfeeding peer support service …
A qualitative evaluation of a novel intervention using insight into tobacco industry tactics to prevent the uptake of smoking in school-aged children
These findings demonstrate that Operation Smoke Storm can be delivered by teachers to raise awareness about smoking-related issues. The ideas and issues raised are now being used to improve and extend the resource for further evaluation
What are the main sources of smoking cessation support used by adolescent smokers in England? A cross-sectional study
The majority of young smokers reported supported attempts to quit, though the support they used tended to be informal rather than formal. Evidence is needed to quantify the effectiveness of cessation support mechanisms which are acceptable to and used by young smokers
The effectiveness of tobacco control television advertisements in increasing the prevalence of smoke-free homes
Our findings provide tentative evidence that mass media campaigns specifically focussing on second hand smoke may be effective in reducing smoking in the home, and further evaluation of campaigns of this type is needed. General tobacco control campaigns in England, which largely focus on promoting smoking cessation, do not impact on smoke-free homes over and above their direct effect at reducing smoking
Smoking in cars in England: A study of school students in an English city
Absence of smoke free rules in a family car and travelling in a car where smoking was allowed was relatively common among secondary school students, was strongly related to social disadvantage and a higher risk of smoking experimentation. Measures to prevent such exposure are therefore indicated
Characteristics of smokers who have never tried to quit: Evidence from the British Opinions and Lifestyle Survey
Smokers who do not want to quit, who are in good health, whose friends and family are not trying to get them to quit, and who do not report receiving helpful advice to quit from a health professional, are more likely to report never having tried to quit
The impact of televised tobacco control advertising content on campaign recall: Evidence from the International Tobacco Control (ITC) United Kingdom Survey
Increased per capita exposure to negative emotive campaigns had a greater effect on campaign recall than positive campaigns, and was positively associated with increased recall even when the exposure had occurred more than three months previously
Economic cost of smoking in people with mental disorders in the UK
Smoking in people with mental disorders in the UK imposes significant economic costs. The development and implementation of smoking cessation interventions in this group should therefore be a high economic and clinical priority
Effectiveness of tobacco control television advertisements with different types of emotional content on tobacco use in England, 2004–2010
This is the first study to explore the effects of campaigns with different types of emotive content on adult smoking prevalence and consumption. It suggests that both types of campaign (positive and negative) are effective in reducing smoking prevalence, whereas consumption among smokers was only affected by campaigns evoking negative emotions
Socioeconomic variations in access to smoking cessation interventions in UK primary care: Insights using the Mosaic classification in a large dataset of primary care records
Wide socioeconomic variations exist in the delivery and/or uptake of smoking cessation interventions in UK primary care, though encouragingly the direction of this variation may help to reduce smoking prevalence-related socioeconomic inequalities in health. Groups with particularly low intervention rates may be best targeted through broadsheet media, the internet and perhaps workplace-based interventions in order to increase the delivery and upta…
Tobacco display and brand communication at the point of sale: Implications for adolescent smoking behaviour
Exposure to and awareness of PoS displays and brands in displays were associated with smoking susceptibility. The association between PoS display exposure and smoking susceptibility was predominantly due to exposure in small shops. These findings suggest that a one-off, comprehensive tobacco display ban is the recommended approach for countries considering a display ban
OP09 Prescribing of Nicotine Replacement Therapy in and Around Pregnancy in the UK – A Population Based Study using Primary Care Data
Background Smoking in pregnancy increases the risk of foetal and maternal problems; therefore reducing smoking in pregnancy is a public health priority. In 2005, licensing arrangements for nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) in the United Kingdom were broadened such that NRT could be prescribed to pregnant smokers. However, little is known about trends and uptake of NRT by pregnant women. We aimed to quantify annual trends of NRT uptake in and aro…
The impact of the Quality and Outcomes Framework (QOF) on the recording of smoking targets in primary care medical records: Cross-sectional analyses from The Health Improvement Network (THIN) database
Rates of recording smoking status and cessation advice plateaued after large increases during the QOF's introduction; however, recording remains most strongly associated with the presence of chronic disease as specified by the QOF, and suggests that incentivised targets have a direct effect on clinical behaviour
Can data from primary care medical records be used to monitor national smoking prevalence
BACKGROUND: Data from primary care records could potentially provide more comprehensive population-level information on smoking prevalence at lower cost and in a more timely fashion than commissioned national surveys. Therefore, we compared smoking prevalence calculated from a database of primary care electronic medical records with that from a 'gold standard' national survey to determine whether or not medical records can provide accurate popula…
Can primary care data be used to monitor regional smoking prevalence? An analysis of The Health Improvement Network primary care data
THIN primary care data could be used to monitor regional smoking prevalence and highlight regional differences in smoking in the UK
A comparison of patient recall of smoking cessation advice with advice recorded in electronic medical records
Since the introduction of the QOF, the rate of recording of cessation advice in primary care medical records has exceeded that of patient recall. Whilst both data sources have limitations, our study suggests that, in recent years, the proportion of smokers being advised to quit by primary care health professionals may not have improved as much as the improved recording rates imply
Insights into social disparities in smoking prevalence using Mosaic, a novel measure of socioeconomic status: An analysis using a large primary care dataset
Conventional socio-economic measures may underplay social disparities in smoking prevalence. Newer classification systems, such as Mosaic, encompass a wider range of demographic, lifestyle and behaviour data, and are valuable in identifying characteristics of groups of heavy smokers which might be used to tailor cessation interventions
Can national smoking prevalence be monitored using primary care medical records data
infectious and parasitic (1.57, 1.07 to 2.29), genitourinary (1.46, 1.04 to 2.04), circulatory (1.07, 1.01 to 1.12), and external (non-medical) (1.17, 1.00 to 1.37) causes and decreased for deaths attributed to in situ, benign and unspecified neoplasms (0.60, 0.37 to 0.99).There was no clear relation between chemical exposure group and causespecific mortality.The mortality of each group was lower than that of the general population (SMR 0.88, 0.8…
