“…[27][28][29] However, the lower quit rates and the additional barriers described by pregnant women with mental disorders are consistent with research on people with mental disorders outside pregnancy; this may be because they are more heavily addicted. 30 In addition, health professionals have not traditionally prioritised smoking cessation in people with mental disorders, possibly because of beliefs that people with mental disorders are less likely to want to stop smoking or that it will worsen the disorder.…”

Objective:To investigate whether 1) pregnant smokers with mental disorders are less likely to accept referrals to smoking cessation services compared to pregnant smokers without disorders; 2) they experience specific barriers to smoking cessation.Design:Cohort study supplemented by cross-sectional survey and nested qualitative study.Setting:Three maternity services, London, UKPopulation:Pregnant smokers with and without mental disorders.Methods:Case notes were examined on a cohort of 400 consecutive pregnant smokers; data were triangulated with routinely collected data on 845 pregnant smokers at 2 other sites; 27 pregnant smokers were interviewed using qualitative methods.Main outcome measures:Acceptance of referral to smoking cessation services; Perceived barriers to quitting.Results:Pregnant smokers with a mental disorder recorded by midwives were a quarter of the cohort (97, 23%), were more likely to accept referral to smoking cessation services (69% vs 56%, AOR 1.70), but more likely to still smoke at delivery (69% vs 56% AOR 2.63). Discussion about smoking was documented in 7.7% of subsequent antenatal visits in women with or without mental disorders. Pregnant smokers with diagnosed mental disorders reported that they and health practitioners did not prioritise smoking advice due to concern about adversely impacting mental health.Conclusions:Pregnant women with mental disorders appear more motivated, yet find it more difficult, to stop smoking. Prioritisation of mental health over smoking may thus lead to increasing health inequality for this group. Research into effective smoking cessation interventions is required for those with mental disorders.

“…This study observed an association between quit success and proximity of the quitter's home to a tobacco retailer, but not with retailer density. 31 Further research on the influence of retailer density around homes and workplaces on relapse is needed.…”

“…8 Recent years have seen a growing interest in reducing tobacco availability via retail outlets, 9 along with growing evidence that the distribution of outlets may impact tobacco use behavior. Studies have found that outlet density is associated with increased cigarette smoking among youth, [10][11][12][13][14] while outlet proximity [15][16][17][18] is associated with reduced smoking cessation among adults. However, evidence examining the impact of outlets on cigarette smoking or use of other tobacco products among young adults is scarce.…”

Background: A growing body of evidence indicates that the density of tobacco retail outlets around the home residence may influence tobacco use among youth and adults. The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of neighborhood tobacco retail outlet density on young adult initiation of different tobacco product types. Methods: Cross-sectional data from a 2013 nationally representative sample of young adults aged 18-34 was examined in relation to a 2012 geocoded listing of all outlets likely to sell tobacco in the United States. Separate multivariable logistic regression analyses examined associations between neighborhood outlet density and past 6 months first use of cigarettes, non-cigarette combustible products, and noncombustible products among adults aged 18-24 and 25-34. Results: Outlet density was significantly associated with recent initiation of cigarettes and other combustibles, but this impact varied for younger and older groups. Increased density was significantly associated with a higher likelihood of initiating cigarette use among adults aged 25-34 (OR = 3.75, 95% CI = 1.18, 11.90), and of initiating non-cigarette combustible use among 18-24 year olds (OR = 3.16, 95% CI = 1.03, 9.74). There was no impact of outlet density on recent noncombustible product initiation among either group. Conclusion: This study is the first to examine the impact of tobacco outlet density on young adult initiation of cigarettes and other tobacco products. Findings demonstrate that residential neighborhood outlet density is associated with recent initiation of combustible products and this effect varies by product type and age. The tobacco outlet environment may be a critical factor in promoting young adult tobacco use initiation.

The Effect of Tobacco Outlet Density and Proximity on Smoking Cessation

Abstract: Because residential proximity to tobacco outlets influences smoking cessation, zoning restrictions to limit tobacco sales in residential areas may complement existing efforts to reduce tobacco use.
