Abstract:
Tobacco use is a serious public health problem impacting both the length and quality of life. Cigarette smoking significantly depletes American health care resources while also lowering the national state of the military readiness. In the United States, one out of every five deaths is associated with tobacco use, and many of these deaths involve a loss of 20 to 25 years of life. In light of the tremendous financial and social impacts of nicotine dependence and the limited success rates demonstrated by current interventions (the majority of cessation attempts are largely unsuccessful), an inten

Abstract:
Assisting smokers to quit and stay quit is the most important intervention clinicians can undertake to improve the length and quality of life of patients who use tobacco. The chronic, relapsing nature of tobacco dependence complicates tobacco treatment. Tobacco treatment counseling programs provide on-going support to help patients avoid relapse. Assistance with a referral increases the likelihood that patients will participate in counseling, but few clinicians regularly assist with referrals to tobacco treatment programs.

Abstract:
Tobacco use among people with mental illness remain a significant problem in the western United States. At the project site, there is widespread tobacco use among patients with mental illness and lack of training for nurses to address the issue. The purpose of this project was to educate nurses working in the acute psychiatric setting about evidence-based tobacco treatment interventions. The practice-focused question addressed whether a tobacco education program would increase nurses' knowledge, confidence, and skills to provide tobacco treatment interventions to patients with a mental illness

A grounded theory approach was used to explore the reasons why staff who work in alcohol and drug treatment services smoke cigarettes. Eleven in-depth interviews were conducted with staff in Victoria across a variety of service types and roles. Data gathered from the interviews were analysed and grouped into categories. From analysis of the interviews it appeared that cigarette smoking is given legitimacy in the alcohol and drug treatment field that reinforces its place in these services. Legitimacy was evident in three main ways - Permission, a Therapeutic Tool and Rewards. Permission

Lipochitooligosaccharides (LCOs) are molecules secreted by rhizobia during the establishment of rhizobia-legume N2-fixing symbiosis. Some recent reports have shown that there are physiological effects on host and non-host rhizobia after LCO treatment. However, the cellular mechanisms underlying these observations are not known. Therefore, the study was aimed at assessing phenotypic changes by measuring photosynthesis, leaf area and dry weight on a non-host plant (tobacco). Our results did not show any significant physiological changes following LCO treatment. We also wanted to explore t

As a result, these individuals experience increased tobacco related morbidity and mortality.

Abstract:
