Narghile正在成为全球年轻人最喜欢的烟草使用形式。这个问题近年来受到更多的关注。本研究的目的是调查在约旦三所公立大学的学生之间的narghile使用的患病率和模式，以评估他们的信念narghile的不良健康后果，并评估他们的口腔健康和口腔卫生的意识。这项研究是对大学生的横断面调查。2008年12月，向约旦三所公立大学的大学生随机分发了一份自填式匿名问卷。调查问卷的目的是询问与吸烟有关的具体问题，特别是与吸烟有关的问题。还有关于口腔健康意识和口腔卫生习惯的问题。36.8%的受访学生表示他们是吸烟者，其中61.9%的男生和10.7%的女生表示他们是吸烟者。香烟和narghile是男生（42%）的首选吸烟方式。另一方面，女学生只喜欢narghile（53%）。父母吸烟状况与学生吸烟状况相关，而与其受教育程度无关。吸烟者的牙科护理和口腔卫生习惯也很差。这项研究证实了约旦和东地中海地区邻国的年轻人中narghile流行病的蔓延。令人担忧的迹象是学生特别是吸烟者的口腔健康意识很差。
Narghile is becoming the favorite form of tobacco use by youth globally. This problem has received more attention in recent years. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and pattern of narghile use among students in three public Jordanian universities; to assess their beliefs about narghile's adverse health consequences; and to evaluate their awareness of oral health and oral hygiene. The study was a cross-sectional survey of university students. A self-administered, anonymous questionnaire was distributed randomly to university students in three public Jordanian universities during December, 2008. The questionnaire was designed to ask specific questions that are related to smoking in general, and to narghile smoking in specific. There were also questions about oral health awareness and oral hygiene practices. 36.8% of the surveyed sample indicated they were smokers comprising 61.9% of the male students and 10.7% of the female students in the study sample. Cigarettes and narghile were the preferred smoking methods among male students (42%). On the other hand, female students preferred narghile only (53%). Parental smoking status but not their educational level was associated with the students smoking status. Smokers had also significantly poor dental attendance and poor oral hygiene habits. This study confirmed the spreading narghile epidemic among young people in Jordan like the neighboring countries of the Eastern Mediterranean region. Alarming signs were the poor oral health awareness among students particularly smokers.
