Research question (implied): How does marijuana use affect nicotine smoking cessation efforts for alcohol drinkers?
NRS 490 – Literature Evaluation Table & PICOT Question. Aim of the study: To determine whether marijuana use affects smoking cessation outcomes and whether smoking cessation treatment leads to changes in marijuana smoking among alcohol drinkers.
Research question (implied): What is the prevalence of cigarette, other tobacco products, and dual use in a USA nationally representative sample of young adults aged 18–34.
Aim of the study: To determine nicotine use prevalence among young adults in the USA
Research questions: (1) what is the effectiveness of different smoking cessation interventions for patients with substance use disorders?
(2) what is the impact of smoking cessation treatment on substance use outcomes?
Aim of the study: to evaluate the effectiveness of smoking cessation interventions for patients with substance use disorders.
Design (Type of Quantitative, or Type of Qualitative)
Quantitative design that included a pretest and posttest trial with the participants randomized.

Methods: Intervention/Instruments
The intervention entails subjecting the treatment group to a two-week nicotine replacement therapy.
The intervention entailed using marijuana as a substitute for tobacco smoking and alcohol use.

Report the sample proportion that used nicotine products against the proportion that did not use nicotine to determine prevalence.
Assessed emerging themes from the peer review.
Key Findings
Greater nicotine replacement therapy use among those who received training than those who did not receive training (12-weeks: 84.3% v. 41.9%, p<.001; 26-weeks: 87.6% v. 51.1%, p<.001).
Marijuana smokers reduced drinking by 47% over an 8-week period, to be followed by 24% reduction in tobacco smoking over the next 18 weeks.
23% of the participants used nicotine of which 30% reported dual use

Aim of the study: to identify the correlates of unsuccessful smoking cessation among adults in Bangladesh.

Design (Type of Quantitative, or Type of Qualitative)
Quantitative design that relied on secondary data
Quantitative design that relied on surveys
Quantitative design that relied on secondary from 2009 Global Adult Tobacco Survey (GATS) for Bangladesh.
Quantitative design that relied on data from Ontario Tobacco Survey.
Setting/Sample
Data was collected from Waves 1 and 2 of the National Epidemiologic Survey of Alcohol and Related Conditions
100 smoking individuals residing at a homeless shelter
1552 smokers who are older than 14 years of age.
592 young adult smokers
Methods: Intervention/Instruments
Information on smoking relapse and predictors
Presenting opinions on the research topic
Information on successful and unsuccessful smoking quitters
Information on smoking quit attempts
Analysis
Reported relapse and predictor statistics
Present recurring themes
Statistics on successful and unsuccessful smoking quitters among the participants
Statistics on factors that influence smoking quit attempts
Key Findings
Risk of relapse exceeded 50% within 1 year but dropped to 10% over the next 30 years. NRS 490 – Literature Evaluation Table & PICOT Question
90% of the participants engaged in at least one of the high-risk tobacco practices. Best smoking cessation aid was nicotine replacement therapy. Barriers to smoking cessation included excessive stress and anxiety. NRS 490 – Literature Evaluation Table & PICOT Question
Of the 1552 smokers, 1058 unsuccessfully quit while 494 successfully quit
25% of young adult smokers attempt cessation, and 14% are successful for the first 30 days.
Recommendations
Attention on persons who quit over the last year since they are at highest risk of relapse, although it should be noted that the risk is not eliminated over time.
There is a need to address excessive stress and anxiety as barriers to cessation even as nicotine replacement therapy is applied as the best strategy among homeless individuals.
Cessation programs require an integrated approach to improve successful outcomes
Cessation is predicted by resources, prior attempts and intention.
Abstinence is predicted by self-efficacy, resources, support, and level of addiction.
Explanation of How the Article Supports EBP/Capstone
The article supports the project by showing that smoking cessation is a continuous process and the risk of relapse only decreases over time and is not fully eliminated. NRS 490 – Literature Evaluation Table & PICOT Question
The article supports the project by showing that nicotine replacement therapy is an effective strategy for smoking cessation.
The article supports the current project by showing that cessation approaches are influenced by demographic factors such that what works for one group does not necessarily work for another group. As such, it would not be right to assume that nicotine replacement therapy would work for the population of interest since it works for other age groups.
The article supports the current project by presenting factors that influence smoking cessation and are likely to have a destabilizing effect on the current project unless they are controlled.
