DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a competitive renewal application for a Fogarty International Center Tobacco control research and capacity building project focused in Argentina. This project is based in the Southern Cone of South America that has the highest attributable mortality to tobacco in the Americas. In the first funded cycle, we developed methods to recruit and survey a cohort of 3,500 13 to 15 year old adolescents from Jujuy, a province in the Northwest of Argentina with a predominantly indigenous population. We have completed a baseline and two follow-up surveys and will be able to generate smoking initiation and transition rates that will include 3 years of follow up with a final survey in 2007. In this proposal we aim to 1) Use the cohort data to develop an intervention to prevent tobacco use among diverse youth in Northwest Argentina; 2) Implement and evaluate a system-based smoking cessation intervention using a randomized trial design among physicians to promote smoking abstinence and quit attempts in their patients who smoke over a one-year period; 3) Continue to follow the cohort for three additional years or until age 20; 4) Develop policy interventions to promote smoke free indoor space and regulation of tobacco products advertising by continuing to analyze the tobacco industry documents on Argentina, using data generated from the heart disease policy model, and evaluation of tobacco use in popular films in Argentina; and 5) Build research capacity by expanding training opportunities in Argentina at all levels, selecting 2 scholars annually to visit UCSF for development of tobacco control research methods, and support the application of promising scientists in Latin America to the Tobacco Control Research Fellowship at UCSF.

描述(由申请人提供)：这是一个以阿根廷为重点的福格蒂国际中心烟草控制研究和能力建设项目的竞争性续签申请。该项目的总部设在南美洲烟草死亡率最高的南美洲南锥体。在第一个资助周期中，我们制定了从Jujuy招募和调查3,500名13至15岁青少年的方法，Jujuy位于阿根廷西北部，人口主要是土著人口。我们已经完成了一次基线调查和两次后续调查，并将能够产生开始吸烟和过渡吸烟的比率，其中将包括3年的跟踪调查和2007年的最后一次调查。在这项提案中，我们的目标是：1)使用队列数据制定干预措施，以防止阿根廷西北部不同的年轻人使用烟草；2)在医生中使用随机试验设计实施和评估基于系统的戒烟干预措施，在吸烟一年以上的患者中促进戒烟和戒烟尝试；3)继续跟踪队列三年或直到20岁；4)制定政策干预措施，通过继续分析烟草行业关于阿根廷的文件，使用心脏病政策模型产生的数据，并评估阿根廷流行电影中的烟草使用情况，来促进室内无烟空间和烟草产品广告的监管；以及5)通过扩大阿根廷各级培训机会建设研究能力，每年挑选2名学者访问加州大学旧金山分校，以开发烟草控制研究方法，并支持拉丁美洲有前途的科学家申请加州大学分校的烟草控制研究奖学金。
