Journal Article
Young, B., Vedhara, K., Kendrick, D., Littleford, R., Robertson, J. F. R., Sullivan, F. M., Schembri, S., das Nair, R., & in collaboration with the ECLS study team. (2018). Determinants of motivation to quit in smokers screened for the early detection of lung cancer: a qualitative study. BMC Public Health, 18(1), Article 1276. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-018-6211-1

Background: The promotion of smoking cessation within lung cancer screening could lead to benefits for smoking-related disease and improve cost-effectiveness of screening. Little is known about how smokers respond to lung cancer screening and how thi...

OP36 Decisions about smoking in patients screened with the early cdt-lung test for the early detection of lung cancer: a qualitative study. Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health, 71(Supp 1), Article A19. https://doi.org/10.1136/jech-2017-SSMAbstracts.36

Background:
Routine screening for lung cancer in high risk groups (characterised by age and smoking history) is recommended in the USA and may be implemented elsewhere. It is unclear whether being screened for lung cancer promotes smoking cessation...
