“…Tobacco Prevention & Cessation as a protective factor for hookah use among young people [15][16][17][18] , other findings have shown no statistically significant differences between male and female use among adolescents 19,20 and young adults 21 , including an example when female point prevalence was higher than that for males 6 . The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has recently reported rates of past 30-day use of hookahs among adolescents.…”

INTRODUCTION The use of hookah (waterpipe) is increasing rapidly among US adolescents, nearly doubling from2011-2014. Further information is needed about characteristics of those who use hookahs and how key characteristics associated with use may be changing. METHODS Data from the nationally representative 2014 National Youth Tobacco Survey (NYTS), n=22,007, were analyzed to determine adolescents' characteristics independently associated with use of hookahs, using bivariate and multivariate analyses. Additionally, NYTS 2011-2014 data were analyzed to investigate changes in prevalence of hookah use over time, by sex. RESULTS Among adolescents in 2014, female sexand past 30-day use of cigarettes or e-cigarettes were each independently associated with higher odds of past 30-day use of hookahs (AOR=1.41, 95% CI1.15-1.72; AOR=4.01, 95% CI3.19-5.05; AOR=6.85, 95% CI 5.29-8.88, respectively). Hispanic adolescents (AOR=1.91, 95% CI 1.51-2.42) and adolescents who live with someone who uses hookah (AOR=8.56, 95% CI 6.02-12.18) had greater odds of past 30-day use. From 2011 to 2014, use among males and females increased, with a percent change of 87% for males (1.60% to 2.99%) and 175% for females (1.21% to 3.33%). CONCLUSIONS These data demonstrate the magnitude of adolescent hookah use, particularly among adolescents who use electronic or traditional cigarettes. Most strikingly, rates of female adolescent use have increased much more rapidly than has male use, and adolescent females are for the first time more likely to smoke hookahs than adolescent males in the US nationwide. These findings urgently call for better understanding of the changing correlates of hookah use, including polytobacco use.

“…Among twelfth grade students in the US, the annual prevalence rate has increased from 17.1% in 2010 to 21.4% in 2013, with a 3.1 percentage point increase from 2012-2013 alone (Johnston, 2013). Similarly, in convenience samples of undergraduate students, the annual prevalence of hookah use ranges from 9.6 to 20.1% Dugas et al, 2010;Goodwin et al, 2014). The increase in hookah use is understood to be largely attributed to the increased regulation of cigarette smoking (Primack et al, 2008) and the commonly-held false belief that hookah smoking is not physically harmful (Daniels and Roman, 2013;Jacob et al, 2013;Jawad et al, 2013;Nuzzo et al, 2013).…”

“…[37][38][39] Our findings are based on a unique online and nationally representative sample of adults and help to corroborate the existing studies that suggest that misperceptions about the consequences of hookah smoking may facilitate its use. [40][41][42] Health professionals are encouraged to work towards increasing awareness of the associated harms and addictive potential that is linked to hookah use in an effort to counter such misperceptions and curb this new potential health threat.…”

Background: Potential harms associated with hookah smoking are largely unrecognized and it is emerging as a trendy behavior. To help inform policy and preventive interventions, we used responses from a population survey of US adults to examine risk factors associated with hookah involvement. Method: An online survey of 17 522 US adults was conducted in 2013. The nationally representative sample was drawn from GfK Group's KnowledgePanel plus off-panel recruitment. Multinomial logistic regression was used to examine the relationships between tobacco use patterns across multiple products (cigarettes, cigars, and dissolvables), perceived harms towards regular pipe/ hookah use, and demographic characteristics with hookah involvement (never used, ever used with/without reusing intent). Result: Nearly one in five (16%) of the respondents had smoked hookah at least once in their life ("ever users"). Ever users of hookah were at higher risk of having used cigarettes, cigars, and dissolvable tobacco products (all P < .01). Odds for hookah use were greater for those who perceived regular pipe/hookah use as less dangerous (P < .05). Odds for hookah involvement were higher among young adults (P < .001), individuals with higher educational attainment (P < .01), and Hispanics/Latinos (P < .05). Conclusions: Information about the public health harms associated with hookah smoking should be delivered to individuals at-risk for hookah smoking. It is likely that misconceptions about the safety of hookah smoking could be driving, at least in-part, its increase in popularity.
