Connecting Discovery and Delivery: The Need For More Evidence on Effective Smoking Cessation Strategies for People Living With HIV/AIDS
Jenine K. Harris, PhD
July 2010, Vol 100, No. 7 | American Journal of Public Health 1245-1249
DOI: 10.2105/AJPH.2009.172460

Smoking prevalence among the 1.1 million Americans living with HIV/AIDS is 2 to 3 times higher than the 19.8% rate among the general population. Since 1990, scientists have worked toward the discovery of health risks related to smoking in people living with HIV/AIDS; however, few studies have evaluated the delivery of smoking cessation interventions for this population. Increasing linkages between discovery science and delivery science may facilitate a faster transition to delivery of smoking cessation interventions for people living with HIV/AIDS.
