吸烟草香烟会对经常吸烟者产生特征性的受试者评级和生理影响。很少有报告调查吸烟产生的生理和主观影响的潜在性别差异,尽管以前的报告表明男性和女性在吸烟行为上存在差异。吸烟的主观和/或生理影响的性别差异可能有助于确定为什么女性发现戒烟比男性更困难,并可能有助于指导计划戒烟时的性别特异性治疗。本实验室研究调查了男性(n = 38)和女性(n = 30)在吸烟前、吸烟期间和吸烟后,通过流量计型烟口地形测量装置吸烟和吸烟行为的主观和生理影响的性别差异。结果表明,女性吸烟产生的“吸烟欲望”的减少比男性更大,吸烟的生理影响与吸烟者的性别无关,女性比男性吸烟更少,更短。这些结果表明,女性可能比男性对吸烟的一些主观影响更敏感,但对吸烟的生理影响不敏感。
Smoking tobacco cigarettes results in characteristic subject-rated and physiological effects in regular tobacco smokers. Few reports have investigated potential sex differences in the physiological and subjective effects produced by tobacco smoking, though previous reports indicate that men and women differ in their tobacco smoking behavior. Sex differences in the subjective and/or physiological effects of smoking may help determine why women find quitting smoking more difficult than men and may help guide gender-specific treatment when planning smoking cessation. This laboratory study investigated sex differences in the subjective and physiological effects of cigarette smoking and smoking behavior in men (n = 38) and women (n = 30) before, during, and after they smoked two of their usual brand of cigarettes through a flowmeter-type puff topography measurement device. Results showed that the reduction in 'desire to smoke' produced by cigarette smoking was greater in women than in men, that the physiological effects of smoking were independent of smokers' sex, and that women take smaller and shorter puffs than men. These results suggest that women may be more sensitive than men to some of the subjective but not the physiological effects of smoking.
