lüll Waterpipe tobacco smoking: an emerging health crisis in the United States Cobb C; Ward KD; Maziak W; Shihadeh AL; Eissenberg TAm J Health Behav 2010[May]; 34 (3): 275-85OBJECTIVE: To examine the prevalence and potential health risks of waterpipe tobacco smoking. METHODS: A literature review was performed to compile information relating to waterpipe tobacco smoking. RESULTS: Waterpipe tobacco smoking is increasing in prevalence worldwide; in the United States, 10-20% of some young adult populations are current waterpipe users. Depending on the toxicant measured, a single waterpipe session produces the equivalent of at least 1 and as many as 50 cigarettes. Misconceptions about waterpipe smoke content may lead users to underestimate health risks. CONCLUSION: Inclusion of waterpipe tobacco smoking in tobacco control activities may help reduce its spread.|Carbon Monoxide/analysis[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Inhalation Exposure/*statistics & numerical data[MESH]|Lebanon/epidemiology[MESH]|Nicotine/analysis[MESH]|Prevalence[MESH]|Smoke/analysis[MESH]|Smoking/adverse effects/*epidemiology/*trends[MESH]|Substance-Related Disorders/etiology[MESH]|Syria/epidemiology[MESH]|Tars/analysis[MESH]|United States/epidemiology[MESH] |
