澳大利亚2010年烟草税增加对短期戒烟的影响:连续跟踪调查
2011/11/22
摘要
目的:采用群体水平数据,监测澳大利亚2010年4月开始实施的增加烟草税收制度对戒烟的影响。
设计和机构:新威尔士癌症研究所烟草跟踪调查(CITTS)采用持续的电话随访跟踪,每周进行约50次访谈。分析数据出自2009年2月至9月和2010年(比较2010年税收增加前3个月和后5个月内的戒烟人群数据,对2009年同期的戒烟数据也了进行分析)。
参与者:成人吸烟者和过去12个月戒烟的吸烟者;2009年参与者为1604例,2010年参与者为1699例。
主要检测指标:近期戒断(定义为停止吸烟或意欲在1个月内戒断)。
结果:22%参与者诉2010年5月戒断,而2010年4月仅为13%,2009年5月为12%。与税收增加前3个月相比,税收增加后3个月(5月至7月),接受访谈的吸烟者更有可能戒断(优势比:1.84; 95% CI, 1.26-2.69; P < 0.01)。戒烟人数的增加在随后2个月(8月和9月)中并未持续。
结论:烟草税收增加与新威尔士成人吸烟者的短期戒断率和近期戒烟者增加相关,说明规律性增加烟草税收能鼓励吸烟者戒烟。

Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To use population-level data to monitor the impact on smoking cessation activity of the April 2010 Australian tobacco tax increase.
DESIGN AND SETTING: The Cancer Institute NSW [New South Wales] Tobacco Tracking Survey (CITTS) is a continuous tracking telephone survey conducting about 50 interviews per week. Data from February to September in 2009 and 2010 were analysed (ie, data on people who quit smoking in the 3 months before and 5 months after the tax increase in 2010 were compared, and quitting activity over the same period in 2009 was also analysed).
PARTICIPANTS: Adult smokers and smokers who had stopped smoking in the previous 12 months; 2009 (n = 1604); 2010 (n = 1699).
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Recent quitting (defined as stopping smoking or trying to quit within a 1-month period).
RESULTS: 22% of the sample reported that they had quit smoking in May 2010, compared with 13% in April 2010 and 12% in May 2009. Respondents interviewed in the 3 months after the tax increase (May-July) were significantly more likely to report quitting than those interviewed in the 3 months before the tax increase (odds ratio, 1.84; 95% CI, 1.26-2.69; P < 0.01). This increase in quitting activity was not sustained in the subsequent months (August-September).
CONCLUSIONS: The tobacco tax increase was associated with a short-term increase in the rate of smoking cessation among NSW adult smokers and recent quitters, suggesting that regular increases in tobacco tax may further encourage quitting activity.
