Smoking Prevalence, Patterns, and Cessation Among Adults in Hebei Province, Central China: Implications From China National Health Survey (CNHS).

ABSTRACT: As part of the China National Health Survey, the objective of this study was to explore the prevalence, patterns, and influencing factors of smoking, and understand reasons for smoking cessation among adults in Hebei Province, central China. Using a multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method, 6,552 adults (2,594 males) aged 20-80 were selected in 2017. Demographic, socioeconomic, and tobacco use information were collected by questionnaire interview. The prevalence of ever-smoking, current smoking, and ex-smoking was 28.94, 21.08, and 7.86%, respectively. Male participants had a much higher prevalence of ever-smoking and current smoking (67.39 and 48.77%) than females (3.74 and 2.93%). In male participants, the daily cigarette consumption was 16.61, and the mean age of smoking initiation was 20.95, decreasing with birth year (27.50 in people born before 1946 vs. 17.9 for those born after 1985, p for trend < 0.001). Over 40% of male ever-smokers initiated regular smoking before 20. Compared with never drinking, the ORs (95% CI) of ever-smoking for low, moderate, and high alcohol consumption in male participants were 1.44 (1.11-1.86), 2.80 (1.91-4.11), and 2.40 (1.72-3.33), respectively. Among 479 male ex-smokers, 50.94% stopped smoking because of illness and 49.06% by choice. Among male ex-smokers, hypertensive men were more likely to quit smoking than the normotensive individuals (OR: 1.48, 95% CI: 1.13-1.96). For CVD patients, this effect was estimated as 2.27 (95% CI: 1.56-3.30). This study revealed a high prevalence of ever-smoking, especially in men, in a representative population in central China. Health education focus on tobacco control could be integrated with alcohol consumption reduction to achieve additional benefit.

Project description:BackgroundAcute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is a rare inherited disorder with extremely low prevalence. Early detection of patients with potential pathogenic hydroxymethylbilane synthase (HMBS) variants is crucial for clinical prognosis. This study was designed to investigate the prevalence of pathogenic HMBS variants in Chinese population.MethodsThe China Metabolic Analysis Project (ChinaMAP) database was employed to predict the prevalence of pathogenic HMBS variants in the Chinese population according to the variant interpretation guidelines of The American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG). And the prevalence of pathogenic HMBS variants in Mixed American (AMR), African/African American (AFR), and Non-Finnish European (NFE) populations were estimated based on the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) genome V3.0 database according to the guidelines of ACMG. An epidemiological investigation of AIP was conducted in Hebei Province, China through collecting the annual newly-diagnosed AIP cases of inpatients in 32 comprehensive grade III A hospitals from January 2011 to December 2020 in Hebei, China.ResultsA total of 5 pathogenic/likely pathogenic (P/LP) HMBS variants were identified and the prevalence of pathogenic HMBS variants was predicted to be 1/1,765. Furthermore, based on the gnomAD genome V3.0 database, the estimated prevalence of pathogenic HMBS variants was 1/1,367, 1/1,403, and 1/621 in AMR, AFR, and NFE populations, respectively. The distribution of these variants varied among different racial populations. Moreover, AIP patients were predominantly hospitalized in comprehensive grade III A tertiary hospitals in Hebei province over a 10-year period. A total of 39 patients were newly-diagnosed with AIP, and a majority of them were female (n=36). The annual incidence between 2011 and 2017 {0.03 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.01 to 0.11] to 0.05 (95% CI: 0.07 to 0.14) per million population} was generally lower than [0.07 (95% CI: 0.03 to 0.17) to 0.08 (95% CI: 0.03 to 0.18) per million] in 2018 and thereafter.ConclusionsChina has made great strides in the management of AIP. More nationwide epidemiological surveys and study of the prevalence rate of AIP patients in China are urgently required.
