“…There are many ways cigarettes are sold, such as in tins, cartons, packs, "kiddie" packs, and loose sticks [5]. Small cigarette pack sizes (hereafter referred to as kiddie packs) consist of less than 20 cigarette sticks per pack [6].…”

“…Nevertheless, there is still a lack of experimental evidence for a causal relationship between pack size and consumption [10]. On the other hand, the affordability of kiddie packs would encourage smoking among the lower income groups, mainly teens and minors [5]. This would demean efforts in combating tobacco consumption, as numerous studies have shown that tobacco consumption dropped in response to higher prices [11][12][13].…”

Small cigarette pack sizes contain less than 20 cigarette sticks in a pack. Smaller packs may suggest lower costs, increasing affordability among lower-income users, especially the younger generation, which could lead to tobacco-related diseases and economic costs, including human capital lost results from tobacco-attributable morbidity and mortality. This concern has caused many countries to ban the sale of single cigarette sticks or kiddie packs. However, small cigarette pack sizes were proposed recently to be reintroduced by the tobacco industry with an excuse to prevent consumers from buying illicit cigarettes. This would demean efforts in combating tobacco consumption based on the existing tobacco control policies to prevent minors from purchasing cigarettes. Given the competing influences of affordability and availability of tobacco on consumption and the dearth of evidence-based review on the impact of pack size on smoking, this systematic review was conducted to identify the link between kiddie packs and smoking specifically on the initiation of smoking, urge/tendency to buy cigarettes among the general population and attempt to reduce cigarette consumption and prevalence of smoking using kiddie packs among current smokers. Methods: We include all studies except for reviews, guidelines, conference papers, commentaries, editorials, or opinion pieces. A database search was conducted in PubMed, EMBASE, CENTRAL, Web of Science and Scopus on 27 November 2021. The results were presented in the form of narrative synthesis under four groups: initiation of smoking; urge/tendency to buy cigarettes; the prevalence of smoking, and attempt to reduce cigarette consumption. The literature search identified 1601 articles, of which 21 articles had met the inclusion criteria. The methodological quality of all included articles was determined using a validated 16-item quality assessment tool (QATSDD). The average quality score for all papers was 34.8%. Discussion: Given the diverse study settings of the articles and despite the challenges of the methodological quality of some articles, this review provides some evidence that kiddie packs may increase the urge/tendency to buy cigarettes and mixed evidence on the attempt to reduce cigarette consumption. This review also found some evidence that kiddie pack purchasing among teenage smokers was higher compared to adults. However, we are uncertain about the link between kiddie packs and smoking initiation. Nevertheless, since most studies were of low quality, further high-quality studies are needed to conclude about the impact of kiddie packs on smoking to assist the policymakers and stakeholders in formulating new policies and strengthening existing strategies related to the kiddie packs.

Assessment of the state of free radical oxidation in patients with lichen plus by the chemiluminescence method

et al. 2023

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

One of the non-invasive methods for assessing oxidative stress is the study of the oral fluid of patients by chemiluminescence. Based on the data obtained, it is possible to quantify the degree of oxidative stress and adjust the prescribed therapy.Objectives. To assess the state of free radical oxidation of the oral fluid by chemiluminescence (CL) in patients with various verified forms of oral lichen planus (OLP), compare the data obtained with those in the control group.Materials and methods. 287 patients with various forms of OLP of the oral mucosa and 32 patients of the control group, comparable in sex and age, were studied. The assessment of oxidative stress was carried out using the device HL-003, examining the oral fluid.Results. The parameters S, Imax of individual forms of OLP had statistically significant differences compared with those of the control group of patients. Thus, the erosive-ulcerative form of OLP by the S parameter exceeded the conditional norm by 2.45 times, by the Imax parameter it exceeded by 2.37 times; exudative-hyperemic form exceeded the norm in parameter S, exceeded the conditional norm by 2.12 times, in parameter Imax exceeded 1.71 times; atypical form of OLP had a statistically significant excess in Imax by 1.49 times; the bullous form of OLP had a statistically significant excess in the S parameter by 2.18 times. Other forms of OLP (typical, hyperkeratotic) did not have statistically sign100ificant differences in the parameters S, Imax.Conclusions. The obtained data substantiate the inclusion of antioxidant therapy in the ongoing OLP therapy; indicators of CL in the oral fluid can be one of the biomarkers in the diagnosis and monitoring of therapy in OLP, especially in the long term, mainly in erosive-ulcerative, exudative-hyperemic, atypical and bullous forms of OLP.
