Publication Consumo actual de cigarrillos electrónicos entre estudiantes de secundaria que nunca han fumado(2022) Peruga, Armando; Martínez, Cristina; Fu, Marcela; Ballbè, Montse; Tigova, Olena; Carnicer-Pont, Dolors; Fernández, EsteveObjetivo: Examinar si en España el uso de los cigarrillos electrónicos está asociado a la iniciación del consumo de nicotina entre los estudiantes de secundaria. Método: Análisis secundario de datos de la encuesta ESTUDES 2019, estudio transversal realizado a una muestra representativa de estudiantes entre 14 y 18 años. Seleccionamos los alumnos que nunca habían fumado (n=16.705). Calculamos la prevalencia y estimamos los factores asociados al consumo de cigarrillos electrónicos al menos una vez en el mes anterior a la entrevista, con y sin nicotina. Resultados: La prevalencia de consumo actual de cigarrillos electrónicos entre estudiantes que nunca han fumado es del 2,5% (intervalo de confianza del 95% [IC 95%]: 2,2-2,9). El 0,1% (IC 95%: 0,08-0,2) reportó haber utilizado alguna vez líquidos con nicotina y el 2,4% (IC 95%: 2,1-2,8) siempre sin nicotina. Ser varón, menor de 17 años, hacer botellón y tener amigos habituales que consumen cannabis aumenta la probabilidad de consumo actual de cigarrillos electrónicos. Estas dos últimas variables parecen actuar como variables contextuales asociadas al consumo de cigarrillos electrónicos. Conclusiones: El porcentaje de estudiantes españoles que nunca han fumado, pero que consumen cigarrillos electrónicos actualmente, es menor que en los países de nuestro entorno, a excepción del Reino Unido. Solo uno de cada 1000 estudiantes españoles de secundaria que nunca han fumado se inicia en el consumo actual de nicotina con un cigarrillo electrónico. No obstante, debemos vigilar cómo evoluciona este indicador.Publication Transitions in smoking status in nursing students: A prospective longitudinal study(2023) Laroussy, Kenza; Castellano, Yolanda; Fu, Marcela; Baena, Antoni; Feliu, Ariadna; Peruga, Armando; Margalef , Mercè; Aldazabal, Jon; Tigova, Olena; Galimany, Jordi; Puig, Montserrat; Moreno, Carmen; Bueno, Albert; López, Antonio; Roca, Judith; Saura, Judith; Fernández, Esteve; Martínez, CristinaAim: To describe transitions in smoking status and their determining factors among nursing students between baseline (2015-2016) and follow-up (2018-2019). Design: Observational prospective longitudinal study of 4381 nursing students in Catalonia (Spain). Methods: We examined transitions in smoking status from: (i) current smokers to recent quitters, (ii) never smokers to new smokers and (iii) former smokers to quitters who relapsed. We fitted logistic regression models to assess the predictors of quitting smoking. Results: The proportion of current smokers decreased from 29.7% at baseline to 23.6% at follow-up, with a cumulative incidence rate of quitting of 28.3% during follow-up. Nondaily smokers were more likely to quit than daily smokers. Of those who were never smokers at baseline, 4.6% were smokers at follow-up, and 23.2% of former smokers at baseline had relapsed at follow-up. Conclusions: Nondaily smokers were more likely to have quit smoking at follow-up among this cohort of nursing students. The early implementation of a comprehensive tobacco control program that includes tobacco-free campus policies, tobacco prevention interventions and cessation support during college years may decrease tobacco use among nursing students. Impact: Nursing students' tobacco use is concerning, as they are the future workforce of nurses who have a key role in tobacco product use prevention and cessation. During college years, nursing students have a greater likelihood of experimenting with several smoking status changes as well as to consolidate smoking behaviors. This is the first longitudinal study to highlight the factors associated with quitting smoking among a cohort of Spanish nursing students. Being a nondaily smoker at baseline predicted quitting at follow-up. Our findings support the early implementation of a comprehensive tobacco control program that includes tobacco-free campus policies, tobacco prevention interventions and tobacco cessation support during college years to decrease tobacco product use prevalence among nursing students. Reporting method: We have adhered to STROBE guidelines. No Patient or Public Contribution. This observational study has not been registered.
