“…In Colombia and around the world, one of the public health problems that has been recognised in recent years is smoking addict, which has developed into an epidemic causing many deaths [8]. Environmental pressure, curiosity and stress are factors that influence the development of a smoking habit [2]. The emergence of the habit occurs in stages such as: preparation, trying tobacco for the first time, experimentation and beginning repeated but irregular use, habitual use of tobacco and finally the development of dependence and addiction [6].…”

This study presents a mathematical model that represents the population growth dynamics of tobacco consumers based on a system of ordinary nonlinear differential equations. The model is used to determine the Basic Reproductive Number (R 0). Two points of equilibrium are found and their local stability is classified. Finally, the Matlab software is used to present numerical simulations using the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method, and it is shown that the solutions approach an asymptotically stable point, under the variation of R 0 .

“…However, in reality, there are many environmental perturbations that can affect smokers; such as environmental pressure, stress and curiosity. Those factors can influence the development of a smoking habit (Barreto et al, 2018). The emergence of the habit occurs in stages such as preparation, trying tobacco for the first time, experimentation and beginning repeated but irregular use, habitual use of tobacco and finally the development of dependence and addiction.…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effects of irregular unsettling on the smoking model in form of the stochastic model as in the deterministic model these effects are neglected for simplicity. Design/methodology/approach In this research, the authors investigate a stochastic smoking system in which the contact rate is perturbed by Lévy noise to control the trend of smoking. First, present the formulation of the stochastic model and study the dynamics of the deterministic model. Then the global positive solution of the stochastic system is discussed. Further, extinction and the persistence of the proposed system are presented on the base of the reproductive number. Findings The authors discuss the dynamics of the deterministic smoking model form and further present the existence and uniqueness of non-negative global solutions for the stochastic system. Some previous study’s mentioned in the Introduction can be improved with the help of obtaining results, graphically present in this manuscript. In this regard, the authors present the sufficient conditions for the extinction of smoking for reproductive number is less than 1. Research limitations/implications In this work, the authors investigated the dynamic stochastic smoking model with non-Gaussian noise. The authors discussed the dynamics of the deterministic smoking model form and further showed for the stochastic system the existence and uniqueness of the non-negative global solution. Some previous study’s mentioned in the Introduction can be improved with the help of obtained results, clearly shown graphically in this manuscript. In this regard, the authors presented the sufficient conditions for the extinction of smoking, if <1, which can help in the control of smoking. Motivated from this research soon, the authors will extent the results to propose new mathematical models for the smoking epidemic in the form of fractional stochastic modeling. Especially, will investigate the effective strategies for control smoking throughout the world. Originality/value This study is helpful in the control of smoking throughout the world.

“…Ante circunstancias adversas, numerosas personas en el mundo han buscado refugio en las drogas, donde el uso y abuso de estas, trae consigo consecuencias negativas para su salud (del Mar Molero-Jurado, del Carmen Pérez-Fuentes, Gázquez-Linares, & Barragán-Martín, 2017). Según indican las evidencias de estadísticas mundiales, el tabaquismo cobra una vida cada seis segundos, y es una causa de muerte prevenible, seis millones de personas mueren cada año en el planeta a causa de enfermedades asociadas a esta adicción (Barreto Niño, Bonilla Reyes, Calderón Bonilla, Cantillo Avilez, Viña Lopera, & Quitián-Reyes, 2018). A partir de los elementos abordados en las asambleas internacionales de salud, se concibe la proyección de estrategias para mejorar los estilos de vida, poder prevenir enfermedades evitables y rehabilitar a las personas, siempre que las condiciones lo propicien.…”

<p>El tabaquismo constituye uno de los flagelos que padece la sociedad contemporánea y los niños no se encuentran exentos ante este riesgo, hecho que se convierte en punto de partida para realizar esta investigación basada en los criterios de educación para la salud y particularmente, en la educación antitabáquica. El objetivo de la investigación busca analizar los conocimientos y los comportamientos obtenidos por un grupo seleccionado de escolares de cuarto grado en grupos de riesgo ante el tabaquismo permitiendo medir los cambios mediante los índices ponderados para su evaluación. Se aplicaron diferentes métodos e instrumentos de nivel empírico como el análisis de documentos, la observación, el análisis de los productos de la actividad, la prueba pedagógica en la etapa inicial y final, donde se organizaron y sistematizaron las fuentes de información en función del objeto de estudio. El análisis y discusión de los resultados en la etapa inicial y final se expresó a través del control y evaluación cuantitativa de las variables en orden con el propósito de garantizar la validez de los resultados, además se analizaron los criterios cualitativos logrados sobre la educación antitabáquica.</p>
