Tobacco Use and Cessation in HIV-Infected Individuals

Abstract: Synopsis The smoking prevalence estimates among HIV-infected individuals range from 40%-84%; much higher than the overall adult prevalence in the United States. Characteristics that are associated with smokers who are HIV-positive include drug and alcohol abuse, psychiatric comorbidities, and lower education and socioeconomic status. There are important health implications for HIV-infected smokers, including bacterial and Pneumocystis pneumonia, tuberculosis, COPD, lung cancer and coronary artery disease. To d… Show more

“…Data from the general population demonstrate that benefits of quitting smoking are evident regardless of age[41]. While effective treatment strategies in the general population and older populations specifically integrate counseling and pharmacotherapy[4244], there have been only a limited number of treatment trials in HIV-infected populations[32, 45–49]. A large-scale trial compared the efficacy of a cell phone counseling-based smoking cessation intervention which occurred over 3 months plus access to a hotline to treatment as usual targeting a HIV-infected population (n=474).…”

“…However, while mortality from AIDS and other causes may result in reduced survival for HIV-infected individuals, few studies have examined cancer-specific mortality (16); furthermore, several were conducted among individuals living with AIDS, (13,14) who are at particularly high risk of death from non-cancer causes. Despite differences by HIV status in mortality risk factors, such as smoking (19,20) and cancer treatment (21,22), few studies have had available data or adequate sample size to adjust for these factors in analyses of individual cancers. (16,17) Finally, cancers may be diagnosed at a more advanced stage or earlier age among HIV-infected individuals; (23,24) although most studies of cancer prognosis have adjusted for age at diagnosis, few have adjusted for stage in analyses of individual cancers.…”

“…Compared to the general population, PLWH are far more likely to be current smokers (Browning et al, 2013) and, subsequently, are confronted with numerous tobacco- and HIV-related health risks (Feldman and Anderson, 2013; Palella and Phair, 2011; Smith et al, 2010). In fact, PLWH who smoke cigarettes are at higher risk for acute bronchitis, bacterial pneumonia, pulmonary disease, non-AIDS and AIDS-defining cancers, and overall mortality (Burke et al, 2004; Crothers et al, 2005; Engels et al, 2006; Lifson et al, 2010).…”
