Data Sources for Understanding the Social Determinants of Health
The expansion in the scope, scale, and sources of data on the wider social determinants of health (SDH) in the last decades could bridge gaps in information available for decision-making. However, challenges remain in making data widely available, accessible, and useful towards improving population health. While traditional, government-supported data sources and comparable data are most often used to characterize social determinants, there are st…
Use of Data to Understand the Social Determinants of Depression in Two Middle‐Income Countries
Assessing the relationship between out-of-pocket spending on blood pressure and diabetes medication and household catastrophic health expenditure
Medication cost for managing two major NCDs and household catastrophic health expenditure have strong associations. The findings inform policies toward ensuring access to necessary healthcare services, and protecting households from NCD treatment related financial hardship
Waterpipe Tobacco Smoking in Turkey
Waterpipe tobacco smoking (WTS) is an emerging tobacco product globally, especially among adolescents and young adults who may perceive WTS as a safe alternative to smoking cigarettes. Monitoring the use of WTS in Turkey in relation to the tobacco control policy context is important to ensure that WTS does not become a major public health issue in Turkey. The Global Adult Tobacco Survey (GATS) was conducted in Turkey in 2008 and was repeated in 2…
Warning about the harms of tobacco use in 22 countries
Antismoking media messages appear effective for warning the public about the harms from tobacco use in all 22 countries, while warning labels are effective in the majority of these countries. Our findings suggest opportunities to motivate smoking cessation globally
Current manufactured cigarette smoking and roll-your-own cigarette smoking in Thailand
There appears to be a need for product targeted cessation and prevention efforts that are directed toward specific population subgroups in Thailand and include information on manufactured and RYO cigarettes
Cross-country comparison of waterpipe use
GATS data provide the ability to analyse waterpipe use within a country and across countries. Monitoring of waterpipe use at a national level will better enable countries to target tobacco control interventions such as education campaigns about the negative health effects of waterpipe use
Tobacco use in 3 billion individuals from 16 countries
A cross-country study of cigarette prices and affordability
In this sample of countries, cigarettes are most affordable in Russia, which has the most room for tobacco tax increase. Affordability is also relatively high in Brazil and China for cigarettes, and in India and Bangladesh for bidis. Although the affordability of cigarettes in India is relatively low, the range of cigarette prices paid is relatively high, providing additional evidence to support the call for simplifying the existing tax structure…
P2-417 Nicotine dependence among daily cigarette smokers in 14 countries
Introduction Tobacco use is the leading preventable cause of death globally, causing more than five million deaths a year. There have been studies on nicotine dependence in developed countries. However, it is little know about nicotine dependence at population level in high burden and high populated countries. Nicotine dependence is important for tobacco control strategies. In this paper, we will present nicotine dependence among daily cigarette …
Evaluation of the use of Global Youth Tobacco Survey (Gyts) data for developing evidence-based tobacco control policies in Turkey
Findings from the GYTS, with periodic repeats of the survey, can be used to monitor the impact of enforcing various provisions of the present law (No: 4207), the progress made in achieving the goals of the WHO FCTC, and the effectiveness of various preventive interventions against smoking. Such data would inform and help in the development of public health strategy
Prevalence of smoking and other smoking related behaviors reported by the Global Youth Tobacco Survey (Gyts) in four Peruvian cities
While few changes in tobacco use among youth have been observed in the GYTS in Peru, the data in this report can be used as baseline measures for future evaluation efforts. At this time, tobacco control efforts in Peru need to focus on enhancing Law 28705 to include enforcement of existing provisions and inclusion of new laws and regulations. Most of these provisions are required of all countries, such as Peru, that have ratified the WHO FCTC
Prevalence of smoking and other smoking-related behaviors reported by the Global Youth Tobacco Survey (Gyts) in Thailand
The key for Thailand is to implement and enforce the provisions on indirect tobacco advertising, smoking in public places, selling tobacco to youths under 18 years of age, and to use the data from the GYTS to monitor progress toward achieving the goals of the WHO FCTC. When these goals are met, tobacco consumption and exposure in Thailand will have declined substantially
