目的：我们探讨吸烟是否与癌症筛查行为相关。方法：我们使用 2007 年佛罗里达州行为危险因素监测系统和佛罗里达州烟草回调调查的数据来检查与四种癌症类型（乳腺癌、宫颈癌、前列腺癌和结直肠癌）相关的筛查行为。使用多重逻辑回归分析，我们检查了吸烟状况与健康筛查行为之间的关联。结果：对于 11 个癌症筛查变量中的 10 个变量，当前吸烟者与不太可能接受过筛查以及不太可能遵守筛查指南显着相关。对于乳腺癌和宫颈癌，尼古丁依赖程度也与筛查建议的依从性显着相关；依赖性程度较高的女性不太可能顺从。结论：我们的结果支持这样的观点：个人与健康相关的行为在不同类型的行为中是一致的。我们发现吸烟者不太可能进行癌症筛查行为。此外，在吸烟者中，尼古丁依赖程度较高的人对某些筛查测试的依从性较低。医生应确保吸烟患者接受适当且充分的癌症筛查。 (C) 2010 年，爱思唯尔有限公司出版。
Objective: We explored whether smoking is associated with cancer screening behaviors. Methods: We used data from the 2007 Florida Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System and the Florida Tobacco Callback Survey to examine screening behaviors related to four cancer types (breast, cervical, prostate, and colorectal). Using multiple logistic regression analyses, we examined the association between smoking status and health screening behaviors. Results: For 10 of the 11 cancer screening variables, being a current smoker was significantly associated with being less likely to ever have been screened and also less likely to be compliant with screening guidelines. For breast and cervical cancer, level of nicotine dependence was also significantly related to compliance with screening recommendations; women with higher levels of dependence were less likely to be compliant. Conclusions: Our results support the notion that individuals' actions related to their health are consistent across different types of behaviors. We found that smokers were less likely to engage in cancer screening behaviors. In addition, among smokers, individuals with greater nicotine dependence had lower compliance with some screening tests. Physicians should ensure that their patients who smoke are receiving appropriate and adequate screening for cancer. (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
