Rockville, MD: Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality; February 2014. www.effectivehealthcare.ahrq.gov/reports/final.cfm. ii Preface The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), through its Evidence-based Practice Centers (EPCs), sponsors the development of systematic reviews to assist public- and private-sector organizations in their efforts to improve the quality of health care in the United States. These reviews provide comprehensive, science-based information on common, costly medical conditions, and new health care technologies and strategies. Systematic reviews are the building blocks underlying evidence-based practice; they focus attention on the strength and limits of evidence from research studies about the effectiveness and safety of a clinical intervention. In the context of developing recommendations for practice, systematic reviews can help clarify whether assertions about the value of the intervention are based on strong evidence from clinical studies. For more information about AHRQ EPC systematic reviews, see www.effectivehealthcare.ahrq.gov/reference/purpose.cfm AHRQ expects that these systematic reviews will be helpful to health plans, providers, purchasers, government programs, and the health care system as a whole. Transparency and stakeholder input are essential to the Effective Health Care Program. Please visit the Web site (www.effectivehealthcare.ahrq.gov) to see draft research questions and reports or to join an e- mail list to learn about new program products and opportunities for input. We welcome comments on this systematic review.

Each step of a systematic review draws on the skills and attention of an entire team. The authors gratefully acknowledge the following individuals for their contributions to this project: Ms. Sanura Latham and Ms. Hollie Black assisted with formatting, data entry, and article retrieval. Ms. Nila Sathe provided guidance on logistics of the review process and organization of the report. Technical Expert Panel In designing the study questions and methodology at the outset of this report, the EPC consulted several technical and content experts. Broad expertise and perspectives are sought. Divergent and conflicted opinions are common and perceived as healthy scientific discourse that results in a thoughtful, relevant systematic review. Therefore, in the end, study questions, design, methodologic approaches, and/or conclusions do not necessarily represent the views of individual technical and content experts. Technical Experts must disclose any financial conflicts of interest greater than $10,000 and any other relevant business or professional conflicts of interest. Because of their unique clinical or content expertise, individuals with potential conflicts may be retained. The TOO and the EPC work to balance, manage, or mitigate any potential conflicts of interest identified. The list of Technical Experts who participated in developing this report follows: Susan A.

However, the conclusions and synthesis of the scientific literature presented in this report do not necessarily represent the views of individual reviewers. Peer Reviewers must disclose any financial conflicts of interest greater than $10,000 and any other relevant business or professional conflicts of interest. Because of their unique clinical or content expertise, individuals with potential nonfinancial conflicts may be retained.

  • ASH NEW ZEALAND Tobacco Returns Analysis 2013 1 TOBACCO
    ASH NEW ZEALAND Tobacco Returns Analysis 2013 TOBACCO RETURNS ANALYSIS 2013 Tobacco manufacturers and importers in New Zealand are required to file their annual tobacco returns pursuant to section 35 of the Smokefree Environments Act 1990. The tobacco returns consist of two components – Schedule A and Schedule B. Schedule A is the information about ingredients and amounts used in their tobacco products. Schedule B is the company list of all their products, retail price and sale quantity We analysed data from Schedule B in order to understand the brand positioning of the major tobacco companies. This includes analysis of retail price, sale volume and estimated sales returned of all tobacco brands. Market share also is estimated based on this data. This analysis accounted for cigarette and loose leaf tobacco products sold within New Zealand (or domestic market). Information provided by tobacco companies may vary and hence the results of the analysis. British American Tobacco New Zealand (BATNZ) provided recommended retail prices as at January 2013 while Imperial Tobacco New Zealand and Philip Morris provided theirs as at December 2013. This had resulted in artificially higher estimates of average retail price and sale return for BATNZ products due to the January 2014 tax increase. Having considered this, most of the results on overall tobacco market in this analysis were presented according to the sale quantity and hence better accuracy. Fourteen companies filed their tobacco returns in 2013. As this analysis only included cigarette and loose leaf tobacco products, three companies were excluded as they sold cigar or other tobacco products. Tobacco Returns 2012 can be accessed through the National Drug Policy New Zealand website (http://www.ndp.govt.nz/moh.nsf/indexcm/ndp-tobacco-returns-2012 ).

  • Tobacco Cessation Provider Toolkit 2015
    Tobacco Cessation Provider Toolkit 2015 Dear Doctor: L.A. Care Health Plan is pleased to provide you with this copy of the Tobacco Cessation Quality Improvement Toolkit. Tobacco use represents an important public health challenge that is preventable. Tobacco use remains the single largest preventable cause of death and disease in the United States. In Los Angeles County, tobacco use claims 8,500 lives annually, tobacco-related diseases cost $4.3 billion dollars each year, and the current smoking prevalence is 14%. Smoking during pregnancy is associated with premature birth, low infant birth weight, miscarriage and complications of pregnancy. Additionally, smokers expose others to secondhand smoke which causes other health problems, including a 20-30% increased risk for lung cancer for non-smokers exposed to secondhand smoke at home. L.A. Care Health Plan is taking an active role in addressing this personal and public health challenge. This toolkit is an example of our efforts to assist you with the evaluation and management of this condition. More effective education, monitoring and treatment of tobacco use can improve patients’ quality of life, and reduce avoidable ER visits and hospitalizations. Evidence based guidelines now recommend initial and annual monitoring of each member for tobacco use. This toolkit offers clinical guidelines and patient education materials to assist you in the care of your members. We hope you find the enclosed guidelines and patient education materials useful. We urge you to utilize the information and resources we have provided and to join us in the tobacco cessation effort. Thank you for joining us in this effort.

  • Nevada Directory of Compliant Cigarettes and Roll-Your-Own Brand Families Listed by Manufacturer
    INTRODUCTION AND HISTORY OF CHANGES TO THE NEVADA DIRECTORY OF COMPLIANT CIGARETTES AND ROLL-YOUR-OWN BRAND FAMILIES LISTED BY MANUFACTURER The Directory lists all Tobacco Product Manufacturers and brand families that are certified as being in compliance with Nevada law. Only cigarette brands and roll-your-own (RYO) tobacco products listed in the Directory may be sold, offered for sale or possessed for sale in Nevada. A manufacturer listed as a “PM” is a participating manufacturer to the National Tobacco Master Settlement Agreement. A manufacturer listed as an “NPM” is a non-participating manufacturer to the National Tobacco Master Settlement Agreement. The Nevada Department of Taxation, in consultation with the Attorney General, and State Fire Marshall will update the Directory on an as-needed basis to make corrections or to add or delete manufacturers or brand families, and/or or styles. Licensed Nevada distributors will be notified by e- mail, to the address provided to the Department of Taxation, whenever a manufacturer or brand family is added to or removed from the Directory. If you are a licensed Nevada distributor, you are responsible for checking the most recent update of this Directory and any e-mail notifications from the Department of Taxation or Attorney General before you stamp cigarettes or pay the tax on RYO tobacco. Three (3) asterisks *** means that the manufacturer and its brand family or families are listed in the Directory, pending completion of administrative review by the Attorney General. Please note that tobacco products commonly known as “little cigars” currently are not required to be listed in this Directory in order to be lawfully sold in Nevada.
