导语：在大学生中使用不止一种烟草产品越来越受欢迎，导致尼古丁成瘾和额外的健康风险。这项研究(1)调查了曾经使用过烟草的大学生中使用多种烟草的模式；(2)评估了与当前使用多种烟草相关的社会人口学和个人因素，并与现在使用单一产品和曾经使用烟草的大学生进行了比较。方法：从东南一所大型公立大学随机抽取10000名大学生，对1593名18岁及以上的大学生进行在线调查，评估他们的烟草使用和态度。结果：约15%的曾经吸烟者报告目前使用多种烟草，超过70%的吸烟者吸食雪茄、少量雪茄或丁香香烟并吸食一种或多种产品。在单身用户中，香烟是最常用的产品，其次是水烟。男性、低年级学生和对香烟的接受度较高的学生更有可能成为复式烟草使用者。种族/民族与多用途烟草使用者的关系不大，白人/非西班牙裔多用途烟草使用者比单一产品使用者低28%。结论：多用途烟草使用者比单一产品使用者更倾向于消费新兴烟草产品(即水烟和电子烟)。男性、低年级学生和种族/少数民族使用多种烟草的风险更大。由于年轻人特别容易对尼古丁上瘾，有必要进一步调查大学生中使用多种烟草的情况。
Introduction: Use of more than one tobacco product among college students is increasing in popularity, leading to nicotine addiction and additional health risks. The study (1) examined polytobacco use patterns among college students who had ever used tobacco; and (2) assessed the sociodemographic and personal factors associated with current polytobacco use, compared to current single product use and former tobacco use among college students.Methods: Of 10 000 randomly selected college students from a large public university in the Southeast, a sample of 1593 students age 18 or older completed an online survey assessing tobacco use and attitudes. Ever tobacco users were included in this study (n = 662, or 41.6% of survey completers).Results: About 15% of ever users reported current polytobacco use, and more than 70% of polytobacco users smoked cigars, little cigars, or clove cigarettes in combination with one or more products. Cigarettes were the most commonly-used product among single users, followed by hookah. Males, underclassmen, and students with greater acceptance of cigarette use were more likely to be polytobacco users. Race/ethnicity was marginally related to polyuse status, with white/non-Hispanics 28% less likely to be polytobacco users versus single product users.Conclusions: Polytobacco users were more likely than single users to consume emerging tobacco products, (ie, hookah and electronic cigarettes). Males, underclassmen, and racial/ethnic minorities were more at risk for polytobacco use. As young people are particularly prone to nicotine addiction, there is a need to further investigate polytobacco use among college students.
