“…woBasz and woBasz ii -the two main Polish representative epidemiologic studies, found that between the years 2003--2005 and 2014-2015 (respectively), the prevalence of smoking decreased for men -from 39.0% to 29.9%, and for women -from 23.8% to 20.5% [11]. However, the number of smokers is still high, especially in the group of 45-54 years old where the percentage of smokers is the highest and equals 35.9% [11]. in our study, only 8.1% of participants were of that age, the majority (91.9%) were less than 45 years old, confirming that vaping was typical for young people.…”

Background: Most smokers attempt to quit smoking, but few are successful. Data regarding the reasons for this relapse and the course of the relapse process may be helpful for determining efficient methods of smoking cessation. This study aimed to identify the causes of and scenarios associated with smoking relapse after effective smoking cessation. Methods: We conducted 20 semi-structured interviews with smokers who had previously unsuccessfully attempted to quit. The data underwent qualitative content analysis. Results: Three major themes were identified: Reasons for smoking relapse; Smoking relapse scenarios; and Perception of the influence of personal environments, including family and physicians, on refraining from smoking after cessation. The first theme comprised the following subthemes: insufficient willpower and self-discipline, contact with smokers, exposure to stressful situations, lack of family support, weight gain, and insufficient improvement in one’s mental and physical well-being. The second theme contained enjoyable social events, professional life, critical events, and encouragement to smoke from family members. The respondents frequently emphasized the large role of interaction with other smokers. Conclusions: The predominant factors underlying smoking relapse include insufficient willpower and self-discipline and exposure to stress. The most frequent relapse scenario concerned experiencing negative or positive emotions when interacting with other smokers.

“…As smoking is a major risk factor for COPD, it may seem that the identification of the population at particular risk of COPD development should be relatively simple. One recent Polish study showed that approximately 30% of men and 21% surveyed in 2014 were current smokers [8]. These patients should probably be a target for screening campaigns aimed at an early diagnosis of airway obstruction and COPD.…”
