"sourceDate": "2014-01-01T00:00:00+00:00",
"summary": "Tobacco use behaviors in the U.S. have changed significantly over the past century. After a steep increase in cigarette use rates over the first half of the 20th century, adult smoking prevalence rates started declining from their peak reached in 1964. Improved understanding of the health risks of smoking has been aided by the U.S. Surgeon General's Reports, issued on a nearly annual basis starting in 1964. Among the many forces driving down smoking prevalence were the recognition of tobacco use as an addiction and cause of cancer, along with concerns about the ill effects of breathing secondhand smoke. These factors contributed to the declining social acceptance of smoking, especially with the advent of legal restrictions on smoking in public spaces, mass media counter-marketing campaigns, and higher taxes on cigarettes. This article reviews some of the forces that have helped change the public image of smoking, focusing on the 50 years since the 1964 Surgeon General's Report on smoking and health.",

"summary": "We write to express deep concerns regarding the impact your drastic staffing cuts at the\r\nDepartment of Health and Human Services (HHS) will have on efforts to reduce smoking and\r\nother tobacco use. Dozens of staffers at the Food and Drug Administration\u2019s (FDA) Center for\r\nTobacco Products (CTP) have been placed on administrative leave, including the Center\u2019s\r\ndirector, and the Center for Disease Control and Prevention\u2019s (CDC) Office on Smoking and\r\nHealth (OSH) has been gutted. These actions risk undermining progress that has been made in\r\nreducing the death, disease, and addiction caused by tobacco use. Without these critical staff, we\r\nare concerned that more youth will start using tobacco products, fewer people will quit, and more\r\npeople will become ill and die from tobacco-caused disease. . . .\r\n\r\n\r\nThe firing of thousands of staff at HHS also effectively eliminates CDC\u2019s OSH, which plays a\r\ncritical role in preventing youth tobacco use and helping adult tobacco users to quit. Eliminating\r\nthis office will deprive states of the only dedicated source of federal funding for state tobacco\r\nprevention and cessation programs. It also means the end of its national public education\r\ncampaign, Tips from Former Smokers, which helped about one million people to quit, prevented\r\nan estimated 129,100 smoking-related deaths, and saved about $7.3 billion in health care costs \r\nfrom 2012 through 2018. Eliminating OSH will not improve efficiency. Instead, it will only cost\r\nlives and increase health care expenses.\r\nGiven the significant ramifications of the HHS proposed reorganization on the federal\r\ngovernment\u2019s ability to protect kids from nicotine-addiction and to reduce chronic diseases\r\ncaused by tobacco use, we request responses to the following questions by Friday, April 25,\r\n2025.",

"summary": "our findings from a large nationally representative population demonstrate a consistent pattern, further elucidating the increased risk and under-recognition of COPD in women. Our findings refine prior estimates of COPD among those without a smoking history and re-emphasise the high burden of COPD in women, underscoring the need for thoughtful efforts to prevent, diagnose and treat their disease. Additionally, our research raises uncertainty about the common assumption that increased vulnerability to cigarette smoke is driving the gender divide in COPD.",

"summary": "Women' are around 50% more likely than men to develop COPD, the umbrella term for chronic lung conditions, such as emphysema and bronchitis, even if they have never smoked or smoked much less than their male counterparts, suggests observational research, published in the open access journal BMJ Open Respiratory Research.\r\n\r\nThe findings challenge the widely held belief that women's increased vulnerability to cigarette smoke likely explains this disparity, conclude the researchers.\r\n\r\nSmoking is the principal cause of COPD. But despite significant falls in cigarette smoking over the past 50 years, it remains a leading cause of death in the USA, with the prevalence of COPD in women approaching that of men",
