- W2187312915 abstract "ABSTRACrThereisconcernabouttheincreasing tobacco consumption indeveloping countries, especially inurban communities. Little information isavailable on theprevalence anddeterminants ofsmoking inblack townships inSouthAfrica. We therefore conducted a surveyofthesmoking practices inthree suchtownships inCapeTown,inwhich673higher primary schoolchildren and 1320adults were interviewed using a WHO questionnaire translated intoXhosa.Results were analysed using a multiple logistic regression model. Inhigher primary schoolpupils, boyssmoked muchmore thangirls [adjusted oddsratio (ORa) = 17-8; 95%confidence interval (CI): 52-609]; and smoking prevalence increased with age(ORa= 16;95%CI:13-19), peerpressure(ORa=4-4; 95% CI:19-69), andpoorhealth knowledge (ORa= 3-1;95%CI:1-6-58). Inadults, smoking prevalence was 53%inmen compared to6%inwomen. Inmen, anurbanexperience of6ormore yearswas significantly associated withsmoking (ORa = 19;95%CI:12-3-0) after adjustment forage,health knowledge andoccupation. No association was foundbetween level ofeducation andsmoking prevalence. Meninhigher paidoccupations smoked more thanthose inlowpaidoccupations (ORa=17;95% CI:10-2-8). Unemployment, however, was notassociated withsmoking prevalence. Thefindings emphasise theneedforprimary prevention ofsmoking inwomen andboys. Urbanisation andincreased earning power appeartoboost tobacco consumption intheabsence of active anti-smoking efforts." @default.
