背景：开展全球成人烟草调查（GATS）是为了系统监测烟草使用情况和跟踪主要烟草控制指标。材料与方法：采用三阶段抽样设计，共覆盖70,802户家庭，其中农村42,647户，城市28,155户。收集了有关烟草消费的社会人口特征、知识、态度和行为的数据。结果：GATS-India强调，其居民的烟草总使用量总体为34.6%，男性（47.9%）和女性（20.7%）各不相同。该国农村地区的患病率（38.4%）高于城市地区（25.3%）。总体而言，Khaini（一种无烟烟草产品）（12.0%）是男性和女性中最流行的烟草使用形式，其次是比迪（9.0%）。结论：服务贸易总协定数据的结果可作为评估印度烟草控制新方法的基线，以纳入文化上可接受且具有成本效益的措施。
Background: The Global Adult Tobacco Survey (GATS) was carried out for systematically monitoring tobacco use and for tracking key tobacco control indicators. Materials and Methods: A total of 70,802 households, including 42,647 in rural areas and 28,155 in urban areas, were covered with a three stage sampling design. Data were collected on sociodemographic characteristics, knowledge, attitude and practices of tobacco consumption. Results: GATS-India highlighted that total tobacco use among its residents is overall 34.6%, varying for males (47.9%) and females (20.7%). The rural areas of the country exhibit comparatively higher prevalence rates (38.4%) in comparison to urban areas (25.3%). Overall, Khaini, a smokeless tobacco product (12.0%), is the most popular form of tobacco use among males and females, followed by bidi smoking (9.0%). Conclusion: Results of GATS data can be used as baseline for evaluation of new tobacco control approaches in India integrating culturally acceptable and cost effective measures.
