Cigarette Smoking Among US Adults With Selected Chronic Diseases Associated With Smoking, 2010-2019

CONCLUSION: Overall, smoking prevalence remains high and relatively unchanged among people with chronic diseases associated with smoking, even as the overall prevalence of cigarette smoking in the US continues to decrease. The lack of progress in smoking cessation among adults with chronic diseases associated with smoking suggests that access, promotion, and integration of cessation treatment across the continuum of health care (ie, oncology, pulmonology, and cardiology settings) may be important in the success of smoking cessation in this population.PMID:36173703 | DOI:10.5888/pcd19.220086
