尽管在减少烟草使用方面取得了进展,但美国的某些群体仍然面临高风险,并且不成比例地遭受与烟草相关的疾病和死亡。为了解决与烟草相关的差异研究中的差距并制定旨在减少此类差异的综合议程,来自资助机构、社区组织和学术机构的代表于 2002 年召开了全国烟草与健康差异会议。会议与会者回顾了当前的研究,确定了现有的差距,并优先考虑了科学建议。组织小组讨论的目的是解决影响服务不足和研究不足人群的研究领域。我们报告会议参与者在多个科学领域提出的主要研究建议。这些建议最终将有助于指导该领域减少和消除美国与烟草相关的差异。
Certain groups in the United States remain at high risk and suffer disproportionately from tobacco-related illness and death despite progress made in reducing tobacco use. To address gaps in research on tobacco-related disparities and develop a comprehensive agenda aimed at reducing such disparities, representatives from funding agencies, community-based organizations, and academic institutions convened at the National Conference on Tobacco and Health Disparities in 2002. Conference participants reviewed the current research, identified existing gaps, and prioritized scientific recommendations. Panel discussions were organized to address research areas affecting underserved and understudied populations. We report major research recommendations made by the conference participants in several scientific domains. These recommendations will ultimately help guide the field in reducing and eliminating tobacco-related disparities in the United States.
