ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
In November 2016, France implemented "Mois sans tabac", with the objective of promoting smoking cessation in November for at least one month. This study consisted of (1) the description of the characteristics of smokers registered in the French cessation database during November 2014-2015 compared to November 2016-2017; (2) the comparison of abstinence factors between the two periods.METHODS:
We used data from CDTnet with 4659 registered adults' smokers who came for a first visit in November from 2014 to 2017 and were followed up at least one month. Our endpoint was 1 month-validated abstinence among the 1943 smokers followed up. We performed descriptive analyses of smokers, and predictors of abstinence were determined using a logistic regression model.RESULTS:
A 6.9% significant increase of first visits was observed during "Mois sans tabac" versus before Mois sans tabac (P<0.001). Furthermore, more women (56.3% vs. 52.2%) as well as more light smokers (28.7% vs. 23.7%) sought help between these two periods. Finally, in 2016-2017, more smokers consulted by personal initiative than were hospital-referred (45.8% vs. 36.3%) in comparison with 2014-2015. Nevertheless, there was no significant difference of cessation rate between the 2014-2015 group (44.6%) and the 2016-2017 group (45.6%). In multivariate logistic regression, being a light smoker was the only factor that increased the chances of abstinence in 2016-2017 compared to 2014-2015 (OR 1.68 [1.03-2.75]).CONCLUSION:
It seems important to refer smokers to cessation services during Mois sans tabac to reach high rates of abstinence.Key words
