Resumen
ZAVALA-ARCINIEGA, Luis et al. Profile and patterns of dual use of e-cigarettes and combustible cigarettes among Mexican adults. Salud pública Méx [online]. 2021, vol.63, n.5, pp.641-652. Epub 27-Feb-2023. ISSN 0036-3634. https://doi.org/10.21149/12365.
Objective:
To describe the profile and patterns of dual uses (n=954) and exclusive cigarette users (n=2 070) and determine the correlates of more frequent e-cigarette use among dual users and their reasons for e-cigarette use.
Materials and methods:
An online survey of Mexican adult smokers. Logistic models regressed dual-use (exclusive smoking vs. dual user) on sociodemographic, smoking variables and substance use behaviors. We conducted censorial binomial models to estimate the correlates of frequency of e-cigarette use among dual users.
Results:
Dual users were younger had higher education (AOR=2.22) and higher levels of smoking dependence (AOR=1.31), preferred cigarettes with flavor capsules (AOR=1.58) and had recently attempted to quit smoking (AOR=1.38). Marijuana use and being daily smokers were correlates of higher frequency of use among dual users.
Conclusion:
Dual users had a higher risk profile than exclusive smokers, which was even more prominent in dual-users who used e-cigarettes frequently.
