The health effects of vaping and e-cigarettes
Guidance has been informed by best available evidence and expertise, providing direction to support decision-making. The use of established methods to evaluate divergent published literature combined with consensus-building methods among a range of stakeholders on vaping is possible. As higher quality evidence continues to emerge, recommendations will require iterative refinement
Mammon’s Revenge
This adapted version of a previously unpublished 2011 paper reflecting on the financial crisis of 2007/8 is reproduced because so little seems to have been learned from that crisis and what followed. Beginning with two money parables from the New Testament, the article sketches the way in which money has developed and its relation to the 2007/8 financial crisis and to its position of dominance, exemplified in the rise of gambling and expansion of…
A systematic review of theories, models and frameworks used for youth engagement in health research
Partnered Recruitment
BACKGROUND: Young adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) face complex health challenges, including a heightened risk for distress. To counter this distress, there is a need to develop accessible, acceptable comprehensive care solutions that integrate diabetes and mental health care to enhance self-efficacy and counter mental health challenges in this population. OBJECTIVE: To describe the engagement of individuals with lived experience of T1D and ment…
Prototyping the implementation of a suicide prevention protocol in primary care settings using PDSA cycles
Although there are barriers to implementing a suicide prevention protocol within primary care, it is possible to overcome them with strategies deemed both acceptable and feasible. These results offer promising practice solutions to implement a suicide prevention protocol in smoking cessation programs delivered in primary care settings. Future efforts should track implementation of these strategies and measure outcomes, including provider confiden…

Cannabis Use Among Adults in Cigarette Smoking Cessation Treatment in Ontario, Canada
Objectives. To examine cannabis use prevalence and its association with tobacco cessation among adults enrolled in cigarette smoking cessation treatment before and after Canada legalized recreational cannabis in October 2018. Methods. The sample comprised 83 206 adults enrolled in primary care–based cigarette smoking cessation treatment between 2015 and 2021 in Ontario, Canada. Past-30-day cannabis use was self-reported at enrollment and cigarett…
Clarifying rural‐urban disparities in alcohol‐related emergency department visits and hospitalizations in Ontario, Canada
PURPOSE: Rates of alcohol-related harm are higher in rural versus urban Canada. This study characterized the spatial distribution and regional determinants of alcohol-related emergency department (ED) visits and hospitalizations in Ontario to better understand this rural-urban disparity. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional spatial analysis of rates of alcohol-related ED visits and hospitalizations by Ministry of Health subregion (n = 76) in Ontar…
Technology-Enabled Collaborative Care for Diabetes and Mental Health (Tecc-D)
Objective: For individuals living with Type-2 Diabetes (T2D), mental health issues such as distress, anxiety, and depression are common. However, current models of care require those living with T2D and mental health issues to navigate a fragmented healthcare system to receive physical and mental health services. This is especially true in rural areas where there are additional barriers at the individual and provider level. To address these gaps,…

Chronic Pain and Opioid Prescribing
Clinically focused interventions for people living with pain, such as health professional education, clinical decision support systems, prescription drug monitoring programs, and multidisciplinary care to support opioid tapering, have all been promoted as important solutions to the North American opioid crisis. Yet none have so far delivered substantive beneficial opioid-related population health outcomes. In fact, while total opioid prescribing …
Co-designing Behavior Change Resources With Treatment-Seeking Smokers
Background: Primary care organizations are well-suited to help patients change their unhealthy behaviors. Evidence shows that risk communication and self-monitoring of behavior are is an effective strategy practitioners can use to promote health behavior change with their patients. In order for this evidence to be actionable, it is important to understand how patients would like this information to be communicated and to operationalize the self-m…
Adapting Evidence-Based Tobacco Addiction Treatment for Inuit Living in Ontario
Settler introduction of tobacco to Inuit Nunangat (homeland of Inuit in Canada) has led to high tobacco use prevalence among Inuit. Inuit are moving from traditional territories to the province of Ontario to access resources, including health services. Indigenous-specific tobacco cessation approaches in Ontario lack cultural relevance among Inuit, as they often reflect First Nations and Métis worldviews. To improve effectiveness of tobacco cessat…
Building on existing tools to improve chronic disease prevention and screening in public health
NCT03052959 , registered February 10, 2017
Primary care-based smoking cessation treatment and subsequent healthcare service utilisation
Patients who enrolled in smoking cessation treatment offered through primary care clinics in Ontario displayed a modest but significantly greater rate of outpatient visits, ED visits and hospitalisations over a 5-year follow-up period
Treatment use patterns in a large extended-treatment tobacco cessation program
Treatment use results imply that the marginal costs of extending treatment programmes are relatively low. The prevalence of single contacts supports additional engagement efforts at the initial visit, while interruptions in care highlight the ability of longer term care to address relapse. Results show that use of the nicotine patch is associated with retention in care, and that improving engagement of younger patients should be a priority

Computerized Clinical Decision Support System for Prompting Brief Alcohol Interventions with Treatment Seeking Smokers
Although brief alcohol intervention can reduce alcohol use for both men and women, health care providers (HCPs) are less likely to discuss alcohol use or deliver brief intervention to women compared to men. This secondary analysis examined whether previously reported outcomes from a cluster randomized trial of a clinical decision support system (CDSS)-prompting delivery of a brief alcohol intervention (an educational alcohol resource) for patient…
Impact of comprehensive smoking cessation training of practitioners on patients’ 6-month quit outcome
Cancer-related symptoms, mental well-being, and psychological distress in men diagnosed with prostate cancer treated with androgen deprivation therapy
While the majority of men treated with ADT did not report poor psychological outcomes, a small proportion reported severe problems. Clinically significant fatigue was demonstrated as a possible indicator of poor outcomes. Healthcare systems need to have clear protocols in place which specifically and routinely target psychological distress and fatigue
Public health impact of a novel smoking cessation outreach program in Ontario, Canada
The smoking cessation program had a high rate of adoption and maintenance, reached smokers over a large geographic area, including individuals more likely to experience disparities, and helped them make successful quit attempts. This novel model can be adopted in other jurisdictions with limited resources

A Qualitative Evaluation of an Online Expert-Facilitated Course on Tobacco Dependence Treatment
Qualitative evaluations of courses prove difficult due to low response rates. Online courses may permit the analysis of qualitative feedback provided by health care providers (HCPs) during and after the course is completed. This study describes the use of qualitative methods for an online continuing medical education (CME) course through the analysis of HCP feedback for the purpose of quality improvement. We used formative and summative feedback …

Implications of the Normative Fallacy in Young Adult Smokers Aged 19–24 Years
We used a random-digit-dialed survey of 434 smokers to demonstrate that approximately three quarters of young adult (aged 19–24 years) smokers overestimated by 20% or more the proportion of their peers who smoked. The effect of this normative fallacy was significantly greater in young adult smokers than in smokers aged 25 years or older. Because of the strength of this false consensus effect in young adult smokers, normative feedback intervention…

An algorithm for tailoring pharmacotherapy for smoking cessation
An algorithm and guide were developed to assist clinicians in prescribing pharmacotherapy for smoking cessation. There appears to be good justification for "off-label" use such as higher doses of NRT or combination therapy in certain circumstances. This practical tool reflects best evidence to date of experts in tobacco cessation
Meaning behind measurement
Future Intentions Regarding Quitting and Reducing Cigarette Use in a Representative Sample of Canadian Daily Smokers
Pre-cessation reduction is associated with quitting smoking. However, many smokers reduce the amount consumed but may not quit altogether. Using a representative sample of adult current daily smokers, this project explored future intentions of smokers regarding cigarette consumption. This information is important because it can provide a framework within which to plan tobacco cessation initiatives. A random digit dialing telephone survey was cond…

Reach and effectiveness of mailed nicotine replacement therapy for smokers
Provision of free NRT by mail following a brief telephone intervention is an effective strategy to reach and assist a large number of smokers making a quit attempt
Softening up on the hardening hypothesis
The hardening hypothesis has intuitive and common sense appeal: in jurisdictions that have implemented evidence-based tobacco control policies, the smokers who have a relatively easy time quitting will quit, and as the future unfolds there will be an increasing proportion of remaining smokers who cannot quit and are more resistant to quitting than smokers in the past. In this context, ‘hardening’ is a measure of a group, or population, over time.…
A Pragmatic, Randomized, Controlled Study Evaluating the Impact of Access to Smoking Cessation Pharmacotherapy Coverage on the Proportion of Successful Quitters in a Canadian Population of Smokers Mot…
In this study, the adoption of a smoking cessation medication coverage drug policy was an effective intervention to improve 26-week quit rates in Canada. The advantages were lost once coverage was discontinued. Further study is required on the duration of coverage to prevent relapse to smoking. (clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT00818207; the study was sponsored by Pfizer Inc.)
