Effectiveness of a Post-discharge Phone-Based Smoking Cessation Intervention for Patients with Severe Mental Health Disorders
A pragmatic double-blind randomized controlled trial was conducted in Barcelona to assess a telephone-based smoking cessation intervention's effectiveness for individuals with mental health disorders post-discharge. Participants were divided into an Intervention Group (IG) and Control Group (CG) with a 2:1 allocation ratio. The IG received proactive motivational assistance, while the CG received brief advice. Biochemically validated past 7-day ab…
Consumo de cigarrillos electrónicos entre estudiantes de secundaria durante la pandemia de Covid-19
Consumo actual de cigarrillos electrónicos entre estudiantes de secundaria que nunca han fumado
Examinar si en España el uso de los cigarrillos electrónicos está asociado a la iniciación del consumo de nicotina entre los estudiantes de secundaria. Análisis secundario de datos de la encuesta ESTUDES 2019, estudio transversal realizado a una muestra representativa de estudiantes entre 14 y 18 años. Seleccionamos los alumnos que nunca habían fumado (n = 16.705). Calculamos la prevalencia y estimamos los factores asociados al consumo de cigarri…
Tackling second-hand exposure to tobacco smoke and aerosols of electronic cigarettes
The TackSHS project aims to comprehensively elucidate the impact that exposure to second-hand smoke (SHS) from cigarettes and second-hand aerosols (SHA) from electronic cigarettes have on the respiratory health of the European population according to socioeconomic characteristics and other determinants. The TackSHS project involves a series of coordinated studies carried out by 11 academic and public health organisations from six European countri…
Impact of the Spanish smoking legislations in the adoption of smoke-free rules at home
The implementation of the smoke-free regulations in public and work places in Spain was associated with an increasing of voluntary adoption of smoke-free rules in homes. According to our data, the Spanish smoking bans did not shift the tobacco consumption from public and work places to private places (homes)
Exposure to secondhand smoke in the home and mental health in children
Among children, SHS exposure in the home during ≥1 h/day is associated with a higher frequency of mental disorder. This association was mostly due to the impact of SHS on ADHD
Impact of a long-term tobacco-free policy at a comprehensive cancer center
A long-term tobacco control project combined with two smoke-free national laws reduced smoking rates among health workers and increased their support for tobacco control policies. The decrease was more significant after the passage of the outdoor smoke-free ban
Secondhand smoke in psychiatric units
Patients and staff have substantial misperceptions about the extent of their exposure to SHS and low awareness about the harmful environment in which they stay/work. This might have an influence on the preference for less restrictive smoke-free bans. It is particularly noteworthy that less that one-third of mental health staff supported smoke-free units, suggesting an urgent need for further education about the harmful health effects of SHS
Smoke-free policies in psychiatric services
The former Spanish partial law has not been sufficiently successful in promoting tobacco control in psychiatric services. There is room for improvement in tobacco control policies, specifically in smoking interventions, staff training and resource availability
Tobacco control policies in hospitals before and after the implementation of a national smoking ban in Catalonia, Spain
The national smoking ban appears to increase tobacco control activities in hospitals combined with other non-bylaw initiatives such as the Smoke-free Hospital Network
