Objective Cigarette smoking has been found to be more prevalent among adults and youths with a minority sexual orientation (lesbian, gay, bisexual, LGB) than among the general population, while less is known about smoking among LGB youth in low-and middle-income countries. The goal of the study was to examine cigarette smoking in relation to sexual orientation in a community-based sample of youth in Shanghai, China. Methods A multi-center cross-sectional survey of 17,016 youth aged 15-24 years was conducted in rural and urban areas of Hanoi, Vietnam; Taipei, Taiwan; and Shanghai, China in 2006. In this article, analysis was restricted to the 6,299 respondents in Shanghai. Assessments included ever smoking, age at first smoking, frequency of smoking, and number of cigarettes smoked daily. Logistic regression was used to estimate the association between sexual orientation and cigarette smoking. Results Nine percent (594/6,299) of eligible participants considered themselves as LGB youths; 34.2 % ever smoked, 14.81 % initiated smoking before age 13, 15.9 % smoked in the past 30 days, and 14.1 % were moderate or heavy smokers. LGB identity predicted moderate or heavy smoking (OR 2.2, 95 % CI 1.3, 3.9). Male LGB youth smoked more cigarettes daily (OR 2.2, 95 % CI 1.3, 3.9) whilst female LGB youth reported less any prior cigarette use (OR 0.7, 95 % CI 0.5, 1.0). Conclusions Few meaningful disparities in cigarette smoking were related to sexual orientation, except male LGB youth consumed more cigarettes daily. Prevention and cessation should target this population, especially male LGB youth.

“…Locally, China is the world's leading producer and consumer of tobacco [3][4][5]. Smoking among youths with minority sexual orientations (i.e., lesbian, gay or bisexual, LGB) is of particular concern in the policies and programs of fighting against tobacco use, considering the higher risk of smoking rate among this group.…”

“…In diesem Zuge wird auch das legale Bezugsalter für Zigaretten von 16 auf 18 Jahre hochgesetzt. Dies entspricht den Forderungen des Rahmenabkommens der Weltgesundheitsorganisation zur Tabakkontrolle (Davis et al, 2007). Schon die Umstellung der Zigarettenautomaten im Januar 2007 von einer einfachen Münzzahlung auf eine Bedienung durch eine Geldkarte, die erst ab einem bestimmten Lebensalter erhältlich ist, ist ein erster richtiger Schritt der Politik zur Einschränkung der Zugangswege zu Tabakprodukten.…”

“…Najznačajniji je faktor rizika za nastanak raka pluća, ishemične bolesti srca, srčanog udara i hronične opstruktivne bolesti pluća. Bezbedan nivo upotrebe duvana, kao ni izloženosti duvanskom dimu praktično ne postoji [3,4]. Upotreba duvana, kao i izloženost istom predstavlja posebnu opasnost za mlade osobe.…”

Sažetak:Upotreba duvana i izloženost duvanskom dimu predstavlja opasnost za mlade osobe koje pušačko iskustvo ne povezuju sa zavisnošću, a pušačke navike roditelja prihvataju kao normalno i očekivano ponašanje. Cilj ove studije jeste da se utvrdi kolika je učestalost pušenja cigareta među decom viših razreda osnovnih škola na teritoriji opštine Inđija, te uticaj porodice na započinjanje pušenja i informisanost dece o štetnosti duvanskog dima. Istraživanje je dizajnirano kao studija preseka, sprovedeno februara i marta 2014. godine među decom viših razreda tri osnovne škole. Podaci su prikupljeni modifikovanom formom upitnika Global Youth Tobacco Survey. U studiji je učestvovalo 839 ispitanika, uzrasta 10-15 godina, 53,4% muškog i 46,6% ženskog pola. Ukupno 7,5 % ispitanika su probali cigarete, sa statistički značajnom razlikom među ispitanicima muškog (66,7%) i ženskog pola (33,3%). Značajan broj ispitanika probao je cigarete pod uticajem članova porodice (31,7%). Pušenje cigareta je nastavilo 3,82 %, a od ukupnog broja ispitanika, 66% je izloženo duvanskom dimu u porodičnoj kući. O štetnom dejstvu duvanskog dima 41,2% adolescenata je saznalo od članova porodice. Prevalenca pušenja u uzrastu 10-15 g. na teritoriji opštine Inđija manja je u odnosu na rezultate ranije sprovedenih istraživanja na teritoriji Srbije. Preventivne mere koje obuhvataju populaciju dece treba da su redovne, organizovane i da uključuju individualni i grupni rad sa decom što bi u kontinuitetu dovelo do unapređenja zdravlja i smanjenja bolesti. Ključne reči: pušenje, adolescenti, izloženost duvanskom dimu. Summary:Tobacco use and exposure to tobacco smoke is a threat to young people, who do not associate the experience of smoking with addiction and smoking habits of their parents accept as normal and expected behaviour. The aim of the research was to study the prevalence of cigarette smoking among children in higher grades of elementary schools in the municipality of Indjija as well as the family influence on their start of cigarette smoking and on their knowledge of tobacco threats. The research, in the form of cross-sectional study, was conducted among the pupils of higher grades of three elementary schools, during February and March 2014. Data collection was done by a modified form of the Global Youth Tobacco Survey. The study comprised 839 patients, aging 10-15, 53.4% male and 46.6% female. 7.5% of examinees had tried cigarettes, with a statistically significant difference among males (66.7%) and females (33.3%). A large number of the examinees tried a cigarette under the influence of family members (31.7%). 3.82% of the examinees continued cigarette smoking and 66% of them were exposed to tobacco smoke at their homes. 41.2% of the adolescents learned about the harmful effects of tobacco from their family members. The prevalence of smoking in the group 10-15 years of age in Indjija was lower as compared to the results of an earlier research conducted in the territory of Serbia. Preventive measures for the population of adolescents should...
