1.烟草使用是老挝人民民主共和国的一项负担。没有任何已发表的报告审查各种烟草使用的决定因素，以便为适当的政策和预防战略提供信息。本文利用2015年老挝国家成人烟草调查（NATS）的数据，按社会人口学特征报告了烟草使用情况。方法NATS包括在18个省通过分层2阶段整群抽样方法招募的7562名年龄≥ 15岁的全国代表性样本。所有分析均加权。多变量逻辑回归模型被用来评估未调整和调整的利益之间的关联变量。结果NATS结果显示，32.4%的老挝人年龄>= 15岁是目前的烟草使用者（男性：51.2%，女性：15.4%）。吸烟约占男性所有烟草使用的95%，而咀嚼烟草占女性烟草使用的60%。目前的烟草使用与年龄较大和教育水平较低密切相关（p
INTRODUCTION Tobacco use is a burden for Lao People's Democratic Republic (Lao PDR). No published report has examined determinants of various tobacco uses to inform appropriate policies and prevention strategies. This paper reports tobacco uses by sociodemographic characteristics using data from the most recent Lao National Adult Tobacco Survey (NATS) in 2015.METHODS The NATS included a nationally representative sample of 7562 people aged >= 15 years, recruited through a stratified 2-stage cluster sampling approach in 18 provinces. All analyses were weighted. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to evaluate unadjusted and adjusted associations between variables of interest.RESULTS The NATS results showed that 32.4% of Lao people aged >= 15 years were current tobacco users (men: 51.2%, women: 15.4%). Cigarette smoking accounted for approximately 95% of all tobacco use in men, while tobacco chewing accounted for 60% of tobacco use in women. Current tobacco use was strongly associated with older ages and lower education levels (p
