Association between single, dual, poly use of tobacco products and smoking cessation in Korean adult smokers.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

This study examined the association between smoking cessation and different usage combinations of three tobacco products (combustible cigarette [CC], electronic cigarette [EC], heated tobacco product [HTP]) in Korean adults.

Methods

We analyzed repeated data from the Korea Health Panel Survey (KHPS), which consisted of nationally representative samples. A total of 1380 Korean adults participated in the study. The outcome of interest was whether the participant succeeded in quitting smoking all types of tobacco products. Participants were classified according to whether they smoked any of the three tobacco products (CCs and/or ECs and/or HTPs) based on their self-reported responses.

Results

A total of 211 participants had quit smoking during the follow-up
