    Determinants of tobacco use transitions in smoker nursing students in Catalonia: A prospective longitudinal study by Kenza Laroussy, Esteve Fernández, Yolanda Castellano, Marcela Fu, Antoni Baena, Ariadna Feliu, Armando Peruga, Mercè Margalef, Olena Tigova, Jordi Galimany, Montserrat Puig, Carmen Moreno, Albert Bueno, Antonio López, Judith Roca, Judith Saura, Cristina Martínez

    Published 2024-07-01
    “…We examined transitions in tobacco use patterns between baseline and follow-up among smokers from: 1) daily to nondaily smoking, 2) non-daily to daily smoking, 3) cigarette-only use to polytobacco use, 4) poly-tobacco use to cigarette-only use, 5) between products, 6) reducing consumption by ≥5 cigarettes per day (CPD); and 7) quitting smoking. We applied a Generalized Linear Model with a log link (Poisson regression) and robust variance to identify predictors of reducing cigarette consumption by ≥5 CPD and quitting smoking, obtaining both crude and adjusted (APR) prevalence ratios and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs). …”
