习惯性使用药物会对公众健康构成威胁。在通常使用一种或多种物质的国家，这是一个日益令人担忧的问题。中东和东非国家的许多人使用阿拉伯茶，这是一种经常伴随吸烟的兴奋剂。然而，很少有系统的尝试来描述同时使用阿拉伯茶和烟草的模式。在同时使用和只使用阿拉伯茶的使用者中，检查性别和使用阿拉伯茶和烟草的模式等相关因素。这项研究采用横断面设计和面对面访谈的方法，包括151名(74名女性)同时吸食阿拉伯茶和烟草的也门人和141名(76名女性)仅使用阿拉伯茶的也门人。数据收集工作于2012年完成。采用方差分析(ANOVA)和Logistic回归分析来检验性别和阿拉伯茶使用群体在使用模式上的差异。据报道，男性使用阿拉伯茶的频率和强度高于女性。在使用阿拉伯茶时，男性和女性使用不同的烟草产品和饮料。与仅使用阿拉伯茶的用户相比，并发用户使用阿拉伯茶的频率更高。较早开始使用阿拉伯茶的年龄与在典型的阿拉伯茶期间吸烟的数量较多有关。大约70%的同时使用者报告在使用烟草之前开始使用阿拉伯茶。研究结果支持了阿拉伯茶和烟草使用的性别差异、同时使用阿拉伯茶和烟草的人和仅使用阿拉伯茶的人之间的使用模式差异，以及阿拉伯茶和烟草使用之间的正相关关系。
Habitual substance use poses public health threat. This is a growing concern in countries where one or more substances are commonly used. Many individuals in Middle Eastern and East African countries use khat (Catha edulis), a stimulant often accompanied by smoking. However, few systematic attempts have been made to characterize patterns of concurrent khat and tobacco use. To examine correlates such as gender and patterns of khat and tobacco use in concurrent users and khat-only users. This study used a cross-sectional design with a face-to-face interview method including 151 (74 women) concurrent users of khat and tobacco and 141 (76 women) khat-only users in Yemen. Data collection was completed in 2012. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and logistic regressions were conducted to examine gender and khat use group differences in use patterns. Reported frequency and intensity of khat use were greater in men than in women. Men and women khat users used different tobacco products and beverages while using khat. Khat use was more frequent in concurrent users relative to khat-only users. Earlier age of onset of khat use was associated with greater number of cigarettes smoked during a typical khat session. Approximately 70% of concurrent users reported initiating khat use prior to tobacco use. The results provide support for gender differences in khat and tobacco use, differences in khat use pattern between concurrent users of khat and tobacco and khat-only users, and positive associations between khat and tobacco use.
