Prevalence of alcohol and tobacco use among Brazilian adolescents: a systematic review

2012

OBJECTIVE:To analyze alcohol and tobacco use among Brazilian adolescents and identify higher-risk subgroups. METHODS:A systematic review of the literature was conducted. Searches were performed using four databases (LILACS, MEDLINE /PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar), specialized websites and the references cited in retrieved articles. The search was done in English and Portuguese and there was no limit on the year of publication (up to June 2011). From the search, 59 studies met all the inclusion criteria: to involve Brazilian adolescents aged 10-19 years; to assess the prevalence of alcohol and/or tobacco use; to use questionnaires or structured interviews to measure the variables of interest; and to be a school or population-based study that used methodological procedures to ensure representativeness of the target population (i.e. random sampling). RESULTS:The prevalence of current alcohol use (at the time of the investigation or in the previous month) ranged from 23.0% to 67.7%. The mean prevalence was 34.9% (refl ecting the central trend of the estimates found in the studies). The prevalence of current tobacco use ranged from 2.4% to 22.0%, and the mean prevalence was 9.3%. A large proportion of the studies estimated prevalences of frequent alcohol use (66.7%) and heavy alcohol use (36.8%) of more than 10%. However, most studies found prevalences of frequent and heavy tobacco use of less than 10%. The Brazilian literature has highlighted that environmental factors (religiosity, working conditions, and substance use among family and friends) and psychosocial factors (such as confl icts with parents and feelings of negativeness and loneliness) are associated with the tobacco and alcohol use among adolescents. CONCLUSIONS:The results suggest that consumption of alcohol and tobacco among adolescents has reached alarming prevalences in various localities in Brazil. Since unhealthy behavior tends to continue from adolescence into adulthood, public policies aimed towards reducing alcohol and tobacco use among Brazilians over the medium and long terms may direct young people and the subgroups at higher risk towards such behavior. DESCRIPTORS: 902Use of alcohol and tobacco among adolescents Barbosa Filho VC et al Tobacco use is an important modifi able risk factor for the development of non-communicable diseases (NCD). Globally, 60% of deaths are caused by NCD, which is the leading cause of mortality. Tobacco use is responsible for 5.1 million deaths per year, second only to high blood pressure, which kills 7.5 million people per year.65 If serious action is not taken, annual tobacco-related deaths are projected to increase to 8 million by 2030 (10% of all deaths). 67Use of alcohol is responsible for 2.3 million deaths per year (4% of all deaths). Alcohol use is associated with more than 60 types of disease and injury. It can also decrease the risk of coronary heart disease, stroke and RESUMO OBJETIVO: Analisar o uso de álcool e tabaco em adolescentes brasileiros e identifi car os subgrupos de mai...

“…Smoking among adolescents is multifactorial and dependent on the social, economic and family spheres. The habit was higher among adolescents of more advanced ages (11,35) . Taking into consideration that experimentation and the use of tobacco does not occur in early adolescence, it is urgent that prevention and awareness of the harmful effects of smoking occur still in childhood.…”

Introdução: O uso de álcool, tabaco e drogas ilícitas é um problema de saúde pública mundial, trazendo sérios problemas aos indivíduos que fazem o uso e para as pessoas que estão ao seu redor. Foi observado que o uso entre estudantes do curso de medicina parece ser maior comparado com outros jovens, o que gera uma contradição, tendo em vista que esse comportamento acaba não refletindo o maior acesso e conhecimento sobre informações científicas a respeito dos problemas que esse consumo trás. Objetivo: Determinar o padrão de consumo de drogas lícitas e ilícitas entre os estudantes de medicina Metodologia: Estudo observacional transversal, incluindo estudantes de medicina da capital do Paraná. Realizou-se a coleta de dados por meio de questionário online a respeito do consumo dessas drogas e aplicação de questionários validados. Os resultados foram expressos por médias, desvios padrões, frequências e percentuais. Valores de p < 0,05 foram considerados significativos. Resultados: Evidenciou-se um maior consumo de bebidas alcoólicas entre o sexo feminino. Um maior consumo de tabaco relacionado com influência de familiares e amigos. Maior consumo de drogas ilícitas com o passar do curso, principalmente durante o internato. Conclusão: Tendo em vista os resultados obtidos, mostra-se a importância de abordar esse tema com os universitários de uma maneira a incentivar frear esse consumo, avaliar o nível do estresse que os alunos estão passando, buscando formas de fazer com que não usem as drogas como meio para se distrair, bloqueando esse ciclo vicioso.
