Chunk #33 — Results — Differences in smoking and smoking cessation attempt characteristics among past-year smokers between those at risk of alcohol dependence and those who drink not at risk of alcohol dependence
Among past-year smokers, drinkers at risk of alcohol dependence were more likely than those not at risk to smoke their first cigarette within 5 minutes of waking, see Table 4. No differences were detected between drinkers at versus not at risk of alcohol dependence in the start of the most recent quit attempt being made more than a week ago versus last week.Table 4Smoking and smoking cessation attempt characteristics among past-year smokers predicted by risk of alcohol dependence, adjusted for survey year (held constant at the median year, 2017).Table 4Time to first cigarette (>60 minutes [ref])Time since start of most recent quit attempt (last week [ref])30-60 minutes6-30 minutes<=5 minutesBetween a week and a month1-2 months2-3 months3-6 months6-12 monthsRRR (95% CI)1p-valueRRR (95% CI)1p-valueRRR (95% CI)1p-valueRRR (95% CI)1p-valueRRR (95% CI)1p-valueRRR (95% CI)1p-valueRRR (95% CI)1p-valueRRR (95% CI)1p-valueAt risk of alcohol dependence (versus drinker not at risk of alcohol dependence [ref])0·84 (0·63, 1·11)0·2161·01 (0·80, 1·27)0·9552·81 (2·25, 3·51)<0·0011·19 (0·51, 2·74)0·6891·21 (0·53, 2·79)0·6471·32 (0·59, 2·96)0·5011·29 (0·60, 2·77)0·5151·02 (0·48, 2·15)0·963Multinomial regression models were used for time to first cigarette and time since start of most recent quit attempt.1RRR = Relative Risk Ratio, CI = Confidence Interval.
