Probability of Quitting Smoking and Use of Tobacco Cessation AIDS

Abstract

Davide Rasella*

Despite the fact that the number of people who smoke has been on the decline all over the world, many smokers still find it difficult to give up smoking for good. There are a variety of tools for quitting smoking, including nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) and electronic cigarettes, whose efficacy is still up for debate. Taking into account selection and confounding factors, the purpose of this study is to examine differences in successful smoking cessation based on the kind of aid used. We made use of the cross-sectional survey results from the 2017 French Health Barometer, which were collected by the Public Health Agency of France. We retrospectively collected three distinct findings regarding the relationship between e-cigarette use and NRT use: status of smoking six, twelve, and twenty-four months after the attempt to quit (yes vs. no). All of the results were weighted to be nationally representative and overlap weighting (OW) was used to control for propensity scores.
