Abstract

Background & Objectives: TOBACCO SMOKING is known to cause a huge burden of disease throughout the world: SMOKING is responsible for 4 million deaths per year. This study is performed in order to fill the existing gaps in information regarding current trends for lifestyle and TOBACCO-related disease in IRAN.Methods: This was a cross-sectional study performed with the help of a questionnaire and using a multi-stage cluster sampling method. The final sample size, after the screening of the data, was 84706 out of 89457 records.Results: From a total of 84706 people in this study, 49.7% were men, 52% were uneducated and 64.8% cane from urban areas; 79.9% did not smoke, 15.3% smoked actively, 2.1% were non-active smokers and 2.7% were ex-smokers. The PREVALENCE of SMOKING was higher in people aged 35 to 64 years (P<0.001). Quitting rates increased with age, especially in women (P<0.001). SMOKING was more prevalent in men (P<0.001) and in rural areas (P<0.001). The average number of cigarettes smoked per day was 14.69. SMOKING PREVALENCE was lower among adults with higher levels of education compared to those with lower education levels (P<0.001).Conclusions: This nationwide survey provides a baseline for future longitudinal studies of SMOKING in IRAN. There is a need for effective SMOKING prevention and cessation programs with a focus on the young population.
