The dataset contains 1120 images divided equally into two classes, where 560 images are of Smoking (smokers) and remaining 560 images belong to NotSmoking (non-smokers) class. The dataset is curated by scanning through various search engines by entering multiple keywords that include cigarette smoking, smoker, person, coughing, taking inhaler, person on the phone, drinking water etc. We tried to consider versatile images in both classes for creating a certain degree of inter-class confusion in order to better train the model. For instance, Smoking class contains images of smokers from multiple angles and various gestures. Moreover, the images in NotSmoking class consists of images of non-smokers with slightly similar gestures as that of smoking images such as people drinking water, using inhaler, holding the mobile phone, coughing etc. The dataset can be used by the prospective researchers to propose deep learning algorithms for automated detection and screening of smoker towards ensuring the green environment and performing surveillance in smart cities. All images in the dataset are preprocessed and resized to a resolution of 250×250. We considered 80% of the data for training and validation purposes and 20% for the testing.

This report contains results from the latest survey of secondary school pupils in England in years 7 to 11 (mostly aged 11 to 15), focusing on smoking, drinking and drug use. It covers a range of topics including prevalence, habits, attitudes, and wellbeing. This survey is usually run every two years, however, due to the impact that the Covid pandemic had on school opening and attendance, it was not possible to run the survey as initially planned in 2020; instead it was delivered in the 2021 school year. In 2021 additional questions were also included relating to the impact of Covid. They covered how pupil's took part in school learning in the last school year (September 2020 to July 2021), and how often pupil's met other people outside of school and home. Results of analysis covering these questions have been presented within parts of the report and associated data tables. It includes this summary report showing key findings, excel tables with more detailed outcomes, technical appendices and a data quality statement. An anonymised record level file of the underlying data on which users can carry out their own analysis will be made available via the UK Data Service later in 2022 (see link below).

IntroductionPromoting smoking cessation is a global public health priority. E-cigarettes are increasingly being used by individuals to try quitting smoking. Identifying sources and types of information available to adults who are trying to quit, and the impact of this information during a quit attempt, is critical to augment the potential public health benefit of e-cigarettes for reducing cigarette smoking.MethodsUS adults (N = 857) who reported using e-cigarettes in a recent smoking cessation attempt completed an anonymous, cross sectional, online survey. We examined sources of information and type of information received when using e-cigarettes to quit smoking and their associations with the duration of abstinence achieved.ResultsThe two most commonly reported information sources were friends (43.9%) and the internet (35.2%), while 14.0% received information from a healthcare provider. People received information on type of device (48.5%), flavor (46.3%), and nicotine concentration (43.6%). More people received information about gradually switching from smoking to vaping (46.7%) than abruptly switching (30.2%). Obtaining information from healthcare providers (β (SE) = 0.16 (0.08), p = 0.04), getting information about abruptly switching to e-cigarettes (β (SE) = 0.14 (0.06), p = 0.01) and what nicotine concentrations to use (β (SE) = 0.18 (0.05), p = 0.03) were associated with longer quit durations.ConclusionsAmidst the growing popularity of e-cigarettes use for quitting smoking, our results highlight common sources of information and types of information received by individuals. Few people received information from healthcare providers indicating a gap in cessation support that can be filled. Providing information about immediate switching to e-cigarettes and nicotine concentrations to use may help in increasing quit rates and duration.

Tobacco smoking stands as a significant global health crisis, affecting millions worldwide and leading to severe health complications and premature deaths. This issue has persisted for decades, with an estimated 100 million people succumbing prematurely due to smoking-related causes throughout the 20th century, predominantly in affluent nations. However, a decline in the global smoking rate signals a positive shift in global health, potentially enabling millions to enjoy longer, healthier lives.
Annually, smoking is responsible for approximately 8 million premature deaths. These figures highlight the urgent need for effective measures to combat this epidemic. The World Health Organization (WHO) and the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) provide critical data on the mortality rates associated with tobacco use, emphasizing the gravity of the situation. According to the latest WHO estimates as of November 2023, over 8 million people die each year due to tobacco use, with more than 7 million of these deaths directly linked to smoking. Additionally, around 1.3 million nonsmokers die from exposure to second-hand smoke. The IHME's Global Burden of Disease study further supports these findings, estimating that 8.7 million deaths annually can be attributed to tobacco use, including 7.7 million from smoking and 1.3 million from second-hand smoke exposure, alongside an additional 56,000 deaths from chewing tobacco.
The impact of smoking on mortality is disproportionately higher among men, who account for 71% of premature deaths due to smoking. This disparity underscores the need for targeted interventions that address the specific risks and behaviors associated with smoking among different demographics.
Understanding the vast death toll from tobacco use requires a comprehensive approach that encompasses all forms of tobacco consumption, including smoking and chewing tobacco. The data indicate that the vast majority of tobacco-related deaths are due to smoking, with figures from the IHME suggesting that smoking-related deaths constitute more than 99.9% of all tobacco-use deaths. This emphasizes the critical importance of focusing public health efforts on reducing smoking rates to mitigate the overall impact of tobacco on global health.
The interactive charts and studies provided by organizations like the WHO and IHME offer valuable insights into the global and regional dynamics of smoking-related health issues. These resources allow for a detailed examination of smoking trends and their health consequences, facilitating evidence-based policy-making and public health strategies aimed at reducing smoking prevalence and its associated health burden.
Efforts to combat smoking must take into account the various factors that contribute to its prevalence, including societal norms, economic factors, and the addictive nature of nicotine. Public health campaigns, legislative measures, and support programs for those trying to quit smoking are essential components of a comprehensive strategy to address this issue.
Furthermore, research into the health effects of smoking and the mechanisms by which it contributes to diseases such as cancer, heart disease, and respiratory illnesses is crucial for developing effective treatments and prevention strategies. By understanding the full scope of smoking's impact on health, researchers and policymakers can better target interventions to reduce smoking rates and improve public health outcomes.
In conclusion, the global health crisis posed by tobacco smoking is a multifaceted issue that requires concerted efforts from governments, public health organizations, and communities worldwide. The declining trend in smoking rates offers hope, but the continued high prevalence of smoking-related deaths underscores the need for ongoing action. Through research, public health initiatives, and policy interventions, it is possible to further reduce smoking rates and alleviate the tremendous health burden it imposes on societies around the globe.

TwitterDeath rate has been age-adjusted by the 2000 U.S. standard population. Single-year data are only available for Los Angeles County overall, Service Planning Areas, Supervisorial Districts, City of Los Angeles overall, and City of Los Angeles Council Districts.Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related death in the US. People who smoke have the greatest risk of lung cancer, though lung cancer can also occur in people who have never smoked. Most cases are due to long-term tobacco smoking or exposure to secondhand tobacco smoke. Cities and communities can take an active role in curbing tobacco use and reducing lung cancer by adopting policies to regulate tobacco retail; reducing exposure to secondhand smoke in outdoor public spaces, such as parks, restaurants, or in multi-unit housing; and improving access to tobacco cessation programs and other preventive services.For more information about the Community Health Profiles Data Initiative, please see the initiative homepage.

This is the analysis code underlying the paper "Virtual Coaching for Smoking Cessation: What are Users Preference in Ethical Principles for Human Feedback Allocation" by Glebs Labunskis, Nele Albers, and Willem-Paul Brinkman. In this paper, we conduct a mixed-methods analysis of people's preferences of ethical principles that a virtual assistant for smoking cessation should follow for deciding how to allocate human feedback.
Data:
Our analysis is based on the data collected in an online experiment in which more than 500 daily smokers interacted with the text-based virtual coach (i.e., a conversational agent) in up to 5 sessions. In each session, the virtual assistant proposed a new preparatory activity for quitting smoking or becoming more physically active, with the latter possibly aiding the former. After the 5 sessions, participants filled in a post-questionnaire in which they answered a set of questions. Our paper focuses on people's free-text responses to the question "When a human coach cannot give feedback to everybody after each session due to time constraints, which principles/rules do you think the virtual coach should follow to decide when a human coach should give feedback to people who are preparing to quit smoking?".

The study from the National Statistical Office showed that there were more than 10 million active smokers in Thailand from 2000 to 2015, and the cost to society from tobacco use continued to mount, including direct medical costs and indirect costs from losing productivity due to early morbidity and mortality. Many people widely know about smoking's adverse effects. These effects are cardiovascular diseases such as Myocardial infarction and stroke, respiratory diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, gastrointestinal diseases, cancer, infertility, congenital anomalies, and socioeconomic problems. If someone can quit or reduce smoking, they can prevent all these health and economic problems. Past studies showed that many smokers try to quit smoking but do not succeed due to many factors. So, smoking reduction may be a more achievable goal for them. Once smoking reduction is encouraged, it can lead to further efforts to achieve cessation. So, the objective of this study is to find the associated factors of smoking reduction that will be used to develop further interventions to encourage people to reduce smoking and may lead to complete smoking cessation in the future. We aimed to investigate the prevalence and associated factors of smoking reduction among patients of the smoking cessation clinic, Thawung hospital, Lopburi, Thailand. A quantitative, cross-sectional study was conducted to investigate the prevalence and associated factors of smoking reduction among patients at the smoking cessation clinic at Thawung hospital. The data were collected from case record forms and the hospital database of the smoking cessation clinic of Thawung hospital, Lopburi, Thailand. There were 96 patients participated in this study. The prevalence of smoking reduction among patients at the smoking cessation clinic was 72.9% of all participants. Most of the participants were male patients. The significant factors correlated with smoking reduction were the number of visits to the smoking cessation clinic and being in the preparation stage from the stage of change model. A smoker who cannot suddenly stop smoking would benefit from the smoking reduction, which can lead to further success in smoking cessation. This study showed that the frequency of visit to the clinic affect the success of smoking reduction, so an intervention program should be developed aiming to increase the participants and follow-up rate of patient attending this clinic. Stage of change is also a basic method to evaluate the patient's mind and motivation to choose the proper interventions or treatment for each patient.
