全国健康和营养检查调查、全国药物使用和健康调查、全国健康访谈调查和当前人口调查的烟草使用补充提供了目前使用薄荷醇卷烟的美国吸烟者总体和人口阶层内比例的估计。在过去一个月经常吸烟和每天吸烟的成年人中，薄荷醇卷烟的使用率为 26% 至 30%，统计数据显示，目前使用薄荷醇卷烟的女性吸烟者比例高于男性吸烟者（高出 8-11 个百分点）。与成年吸烟者总体相比，目前使用薄荷醇卷烟的非西班牙裔黑人吸烟者比例较高（72-79%），非西班牙裔白人吸烟者比例较低（19-22%），其他种族/族裔群体的吸烟者之间没有差异（18-20%至28-30%，具体取决于调查）。与老年吸烟者（26-29 岁和/或 >= 30 岁）相比，过去一个月经常吸烟和每天吸烟的年轻人（18-25 岁）目前使用薄荷醇卷烟的比例较高；然而，差异幅度很小，目前使用薄荷醇卷烟的绝大多数成年吸烟者 (70-75%) 年龄 >= 30 岁。提供了青少年和成年吸烟者之间的比较，尽管青少年吸烟者的数据较少，并且提供的薄荷醇卷烟使用模式不太一致。 (C) 2014 年作者。由爱思唯尔公司出版
The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, National Survey on Drug Use and Health, National Health Interview Survey and Tobacco Use Supplement to the Current Population Survey provide estimates of the proportions of U.S. smokers who currently use menthol cigarettes, overall and within demographic strata. Among adult past-month, regular and daily smokers, menthol cigarette use ranges from 26% to 30%, with statistically higher proportions of female versus male smokers (8-11 percentage points higher) currently using menthol cigarettes. Compared to adult smokers overall, statistically higher proportions of non-Hispanic Black smokers (72-79%) and statistically lower proportions of non-Hispanic White smokers (19-22%) currently use menthol cigarettes, with no differences among smokers of other race/ethnicity groups (18-20% to 28-30%, depending on the survey). Higher proportions of younger adult past-month, regular and daily smokers (aged 18-25 years) currently use menthol cigarettes compared to older adult smokers (aged 26-29 years and/or >= 30 years); however, differences are small in magnitude, with the vast majority of adult smokers (70-75%) who currently use menthol cigarettes being aged >= 30 years. Comparisons between youth and adult smokers are provided, although data for youth smokers are less available and provide less consistent patterns of menthol cigarette use. (C) 2014 The Authors.
