背景癌症患者的烟草使用与不良健康结果相关。在包括俄罗斯在内的发展中国家,烟草使用率极高,几乎没有公共卫生基础设施来解决这一问题。新诊断的俄罗斯癌症患者的吸烟状况和戒烟意图的心理相关性。对294例新诊断为癌症的吸烟者进行了横断面研究。结果与戒烟者相比,继续吸烟的患者更有可能报告吸烟的冲动,以满足烟草使用的积极强化方面。与正在吸烟并报告在未来3个月内不打算戒烟的患者相比,正在吸烟但打算戒烟的患者报告了更高水平的与继续吸烟相关的感知风险和更高水平的戒烟自我效能。这些数据可以帮助指导行为干预的发展,以帮助患者戒烟,提高他们改善临床结果的机会。
BackgroundTobacco use among cancer patients is associated with adverse health outcomes. Little attention has been paid to tobacco use among cancer patients in developing countries, including Russia, where tobacco use is extremely high, and there is little public health infrastructure to address this issue.PurposeThis study examined medical, socio-demographic, and psychological correlates of smoking status and intention to quit smoking among newly diagnosed Russian cancer patients.MethodA cross-sectional study was conducted with 294 current or former smokers newly diagnosed with cancer.ResultsCompared with patients who quit smoking, patients who continued to smoke were more likely to report urges to smoke to satisfy positive reinforcing aspects of tobacco use. Compared with patients who were smoking and reported no intention to quit smoking in the next 3 months, patients who were smoking but intended to quit smoking reported higher levels of perceived risks associated with continued smoking and higher levels of self-efficacy to quit smoking.ConclusionAs commitment to developing smoking cessation treatment programs for cancer patients in Russia emerges, these data can help guide the development of behavioral interventions to assist patients with quitting smoking, enhancing their chances for improved clinical outcomes.
