■由于行业营销技术,中学生和高中生使用替代尼古丁产品越来越受到关注,可用性,和新产品的普及,和不明确的尼古丁浓度。2021年全国青年烟草调查(NYTS)提供了有关频率的信息,和中间的特点,和使用尼古丁袋的高中生。
■全国青少年烟草调查提供了有关美国学校代表性学生样本使用烟草和替代尼古丁产品的频率的重要信息。2021年的调查包括有关尼古丁袋/可溶性烟草产品使用的问题。调查结果采用描述性统计分析,和逻辑回归来建立这些替代尼古丁产品使用之间的关联模型,以及使用电子香烟或使用传统香烟。
■共有20413名学生参加了2021年的调查;最终数据分析中包括17842名学生。他们的年龄从9岁到18岁不等。确定使用替代尼古丁产品的风险因素包括种族,和年龄。非西班牙裔黑人和西班牙裔学生的调整后优势比(OR)较低,与非西班牙裔白人学生相比。年龄较大的学生使用尼古丁/可溶性烟草制品的风险要高得多,具体来说,与小于或等于13岁的学生相比。17岁学生的OR增加了174%(OR:2.74;1.70-4.41)。对与电子烟相关的危害的感知增加了使用替代尼古丁产品的可能性。不吸烟(OR:0.39;0.27-0.56)或不吸烟电子烟(OR:0.20;0.18-0.40)的学生使用替代尼古丁产品的OR显着降低。
■2021年全国青年烟草调查显示,初中和高中学生中使用尼古丁袋的比例相对较小。然而,随着新的增加,替代烟草产品,与其他烟草制品相比,了解青少年的使用是一个重要的监测趋势。
The use of alternative nicotine products by middle and high school students is a growing concern due to industry marketing techniques, availability, and popularity of new products, and ambiguous nicotine concentrations. The 2021 National Youth Tobacco Survey (NYTS) provides information about the frequency, and characteristics of middle, and high school students who have used nicotine pouches.
The National Youth Tobacco Surveys provide important information about the frequency of use of tobacco and alternative nicotine products by a representative sample of students in schools in the United States. The 2021 survey included questions about the use of nicotine pouches/dissolvable tobacco products. The results from the survey were analysis using descriptive statistics, and logistic regression to model the association between the use of these alternative nicotine products, and the use of electronic cigarettes or the use of conventional cigarettes.
A total of 20 413 students participated in the survey year 2021; 17 842 were included in the final data analysis. Their ages ranged from 9 to 18+. Identified risk factors for the use of alternative nicotine products included race, and age. The adjusted odds ratio (OR) was lower in non-Hispanic Black and Hispanic students, as compared to non-Hispanic White students. Older students had a substantially higher risk of using nicotine/dissolvable tobacco products, specifically, compared to students less than or equal to 13 years old. The OR increased 174% (OR: 2.74; 1.70-4.41) in 17-year-old students. The perception of harm associated with electronic cigarettes increased the likelihood of using alternative nicotine products. Students who did not smoke cigarettes (OR: 0.39; 0.27-0.56) or did not smoke electronic cigarettes (OR: 0.20; 0.18-0.40) had significantly lower OR for using alternative nicotine products.
The 2021 National Youth Tobacco Survey indicates that a relatively small percentage of middle school and high school student have used nicotine pouches. However, with the increase in new, alternative tobacco products, understanding adolescent use in comparison to other tobacco products is an important trend to monitor.
