Dagens #fsvoversigt:
Overview of systematic reviews on the health-related effects of
government tobacco control policies.
BMC Public Health. 2015;15:744
Authors: Hoffman SJ, Tan C
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Government interventions are critical to addressing the
global tobacco epidemic, a major public health problem that continues
to deepen. We systematically synthesize research evidence on the
effectiveness of government tobacco control policies promoted by the
Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC), supporting the
implementation of this international treaty on the tenth anniversary
of it entering into force.
METHODS: An overview of systematic reviews was prepared through
systematic searches of five electronic databases, published up to
March 2014. Additional reviews were retrieved from monthly updates
until August 2014, consultations with tobacco control experts and a
targeted search for reviews on mass media interventions. Reviews were
assessed according to predefined inclusion criteria, and ratings of
methodological quality were either extracted from source databases or
independently scored.
RESULTS: Of 612 reviews retrieved, 45 reviews met the inclusion
criteria and 14 more were identified from monthly updates, expert
consultations and a targeted search, resulting in 59 included reviews
summarizing over 1150 primary studies. The 38 strong and moderate
quality reviews published since 2000 were prioritized in the
qualitative synthesis. Protecting people from tobacco smoke was the
most strongly supported government intervention, with smoke-free
policies associated with decreased smoking behaviour, secondhand smoke
exposure and adverse health outcomes. Raising taxes on tobacco
products also consistently demonstrated reductions in smoking
behaviour. Tobacco product packaging interventions and anti-tobacco
mass media campaigns may decrease smoking behaviour, with the latter
likely an important part of larger multicomponent programs. Financial
interventions for smoking cessation are most effective when targeted
at smokers to reduce the cost of cessation products, but incentivizing
quitting may be effective as well. Although the findings for bans on
tobacco advertising were inconclusive, other evidence suggests they
remain an important intervention.
CONCLUSION: When designing and implementing tobacco control programs,
governments should prioritize smoking bans and price increases of
tobacco products followed by other interventions. Additional studies
are needed on the various factors that can influence a policy's
effectiveness and feasibility such as cost, local context, political
barriers and implementation strategies.
