Hawari FI, et al. - Using a retrospective cohort study design, researchers assessed the receipt of care at a smoking cessation clinic within Jordan’s only comprehensive oncology center. They determined how short-term (2-year) survival following a cancer diagnosis could be influenced by assisted abstinence through the smoking cessation clinic. The inclusion criteria were satisfied by 3,403 patients. Although an increased possibility of abstinence and lower short-term hazard of mortality during cancer therapy can be achieved via evidence-based smoking cessation interventions, the proportions of patients visiting the smoking cessation clinic were low, which suggested a deprioritization of smoking cessation interventions during cancer care.
