The purpose of this study is to investigate cadmium concentrations among metals in ETS (Environmental Tobacco Smoke) of indoor environments and to evaluate the cadmium as a marker of ETS. The correlations of cadmium concentrations and nicotine, 3-EP, RSP, SD (Smoking Density), and SI (Smoking Index). Air samples of metals, nicotine, 3-EP, and RSP were taken in smoking room, smoking allowed office, corridor outside smoking room, and non-smoking office respectively. The SD, ACH, and SI were investigated during sampling. Airborne concentration of cadmium known as human carcinogen were qualified and quantified. The SD was 0.2 to $2.6cig/m^2{\cdot}hr$, and the mean value of SD in smoking rooms was $1.2cig/m^2{\cdot}hr$ that is higher than other researches. The mean of ACH in smoking rooms was 11.1. The concentrations of cadmium showed log-normal distributions and the geometric mean concentrations of cadmium in smoking rooms, corridor outside smoking rooms, smoking allowed offices, and non-smoking offices were $0.045{\mu}g/m^3$, $0.018{\mu}g/m^3$, $0.021{\mu}g/m^3$, and $0.017{\mu}g/m^3$ respectively. The concentrations of cadmium in smoking room showed significant difference according to category of indoor office environments (p<0.05) and showed compliance with occupational exposure limits. The correlation coefficients between cadmium and nicotine, 3-EP, and RSP were 0.53, 0.41, 0.43 respectively. The cadmium among metals showed the highest correlations (r=0.63) with SI. It was recommended cadmium among metals is a good indicator for ETS.

실내공기가 오염되었을 경우는 궁극적으로 환기를 강화시켜야함은 주지의 사실이다. 최근 미국의 ASHRAE에서는(1989년) 1인당 필요한 최소 외기량을 9$m^3$/hr/인에서 27$m^3$/hr/인까지 증가시키고, 흡연실과 금연실을 분리하지 않고 전체적으로 필요한 외기량을 설정하였다.

본 연구는 제주지역 일부 초, 중학생들의 간접흡연 실태와 그로 인한 현재 흡연 여부 관계를 분석하여 초, 중학생들의 흡연 예방 교육 계획 및 수립에 기초 자료를 제공하고자 본 연구를 시도하였다. 자료 수집 기간은 2009년 6월 29일부터 7월 11일까지 제주특별자치도내 초등학교 5, 6학년 아동 464명과 중학생 475명을 대상으로 설문지를 이용하여 조사하였다. 연구 대상자들의 간접흡연 노출 관련성은 가정불화, 성적, 친구관계스트레스가 있는 대상자에게서 높게 조사되었고, 가족 및 주변인의 흡연유무에 따른 간접흡연 실태는 부모 및 친구의 흡연으로 간접흡연에 노출되었으며 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 간접흡연의 주제공자는 아버지며, 주 간접흡연 피해 장소는 집으로 나타났다. 간접흡연 노출 유무를 종속변수로 한 로지스틱 회귀분석 결과는 흡연하는 아버지를 둔 대상자가 그렇지 않은 대상자에 비해 간접흡연 노출이 높았으며, 흡연하는 친구를 둔 대상자는 그렇지 않은 대상자에 비해 간접흡연 노출이 높게 나타났다. 현재흡연 여부를 종속변수로 한 로지스틱 회귀분석의 결과는 남학생이 여학생에 비해, 중학생이 초등학생에 비해 현재흡연율이 높았고, 엄한 가정 분위기 속에서 생활하고 있는 대상자와 흡연하는 친구를 둔 대상자는 그렇지 않은 대상자에 비해 현재흡연율이 높았으며, 간접흡연에 노출 되었던 대상자에게서 현재흡연율이 높게 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 볼 때 초, 중학생의 간접흡연 실태는 심각한 사회문제이다. 또한 대상자들의 현재 흡연은 간접흡연 노출과 관련이 있는 것으로 볼 수 있었다. 이러한 간접흡연의 노출 및 그로 인한 흡연율을 줄이기 위해서는 가정 및 학교와 공공장소 등에서 간접흡연에 노출되지 않는 제도적 및 환경적인 조치들이 우선되어야 할 것이며, 학생들을 대상으로 간접흡연에 대한 간접흡연 예방 교육 및 대처방안 교육이 조기에 지속적으로 실시되어야 하겠다. 또한 유치원에서부터 고등학교에 이르기까지 모든 학생들에게 필수적으로 흡연예방 교육을 수강하게 하고, 교사들을 위한 연수교육 실시, 학교 흡연예방사업에 부모나 가족을 참여, 흡연예방 사업의 정기적인 평가 실시 등 국가적인 정책이 동반되어야 할 것이다.

Because of space constraints of the ship, accessibility to supporting system for nonsmoking is poor in seafarers' group. This study was performed to find the smoking status, second-hand smoking status and factors related to smoking habit of Korean seafarers. So, we examined the rate of smoking and secondhand smoking, and knowledge about smoking, attitude for smoking behavior, smoking cessation intention and working environment related to smoking of 155 seafarers. Their smoking rate was 32.3% and secondhand smoke rate was very high by 86.5%. Their working place equipped a separate smoking room, but most of them had been smoked in where they were stayed. and we found the inadequate ventilation facility in 42.6%. Only 21.9% had a experience of education for smoking cessation. From the study Attitude for smoking behavior was negative and smoking knowledge was high. 90% of them tried to stop to smoke, but intention of smoking cessation was low. We need to motivate seafarers and increase their smoking cessation intention by regular education in available ways. From the study, we purpose that government will realign regulations related to ventilation facility and appointed smoking area on the board to prevent seondhand smoke, and the policy need to possess the regular survey of smoking status and customized smoking cessation education for seafarers.

This study investigated changes in the youth smoking rate and smoking cessation rates before and after a cigarette price increase in 2015. Specifically, the changes in smoking rate, smoking cessation attempt rate, selection rate and amount of smoking were investigated using primary data pertaining to Korean Youth Risk Behavior obtained from a web-based survey of youth general characteristics, mental health, subjective grade, drinking and smoking related characteristics before and after a cigarette price increase. To accomplish this, 800 middle school and high school students in 9th (2013), 10th (2014), 11th (2015) were surveyed. The current youth smoking rate was slightly decreased from 9.7% in 2013 to 9.2% in 2014, while the smoking rate in 2015 decreased significantly by 15.2% after the cigarette price increased to 7.8%. These results confirmed that increasing cigarette price is very effective at decreasing youth smoking rate, providing motivation to stop smoking and preventing smoking. The prevention of smoking and inducement to stop smoking during adolescence is very important because the majority of teenage smokers continue smoking into their adulthood. In addition to expanding a completely non-smoking area and a comprehensive ban on tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship should be urgently sought, and the effect can be maximized when the WHO FCTC faithfully implements the already-founded treaty.
