“…Otros estudios demostraron que la exposición al marketing aumentó la susceptibilidad y las ganas de probar el cigarrillo en Buenos Aires (29), que la mayoría los kioscos evaluados (79.7%) tenían publicidades en su interior, solo el 35.2% de las tiendas tenían carteles claramente visibles de prohibida la venta de cigarrillos a menores y el 93.9% de los kioscos refirió haber negado la venta de cigarrillos individuales. Ninguno de los kioscos tenía publicidades en el exterior, aunque el 52.3% tenía anuncios interiores que eran claramente visibles desde el exterior (30). Un estudio realizado en 6 ciudades del país reveló que el 86% de los kioscos exhibían los paquetes de cigarrillos, que eran visibles desde el exterior del comercio y que constituye una estrategia para publicitar eludiendo la normativa vigente (31).…”

Health impact of the total ban on advertising of tobacco products The objective was to estimate the health impact of the total ban on advertising of tobacco products in terms of avoided cardiovascular events in those over 35 years of age in Argentina. The Cardiovascular Disease Policy Model (CVDPM) was used, which is a Markov simulation model used to represent and project mortality and morbidity due to cardiovascular disease (CVD) in the population aged 35 or over. It constitutes a demographic-epidemiological model, which represents the population between 35 and 95 years of age and uses a logistic regression model based on the Framingham equation to estimate the annual incidence of cardiovascular disease. We assumed that implementing a complete ban on the advertising of tobacco products would lead to a 9% reduction in tobacco consumption. The complete ban on advertising could prevent 15,164 deaths over a period of 10 years, of which 2610 would be the result of coronary heart disease and 747 due to stroke. These reductions would mean an annual decrease of 0.46% of total deaths, 0.60% of deaths from coronary heart disease and 0.33% in deaths from stroke. In addition, during the same period, it would avoid 6630 acute myocardial infarctions and 2851 strokes (reductions of 1.35% and 0.40%, respectively). We hope that these findings might contribute to the strengthening of sanitary tobacco control policies in Argentina based on the remarkable benefits of banning the advertising of tobacco products in full and in line with current global recommendations.

The present study addresses the perceived effects of the implementation of the Law on Alcohol Control passed by the Lithuanian Parliament. The current study provides initial scientific insights into the rationale and the outcomes of that piece of legislation. The results of the research were analyzed from both economic and social perspectives. The study revealed that although the implementation of the Law on Alcohol Control did induce significant positive changes in society’s perception towards consumption of alcohol, it also provoked some side effects in economic and social perspectives.
