AIHW - Health Risk Factors - Adults who are Daily Smokers Crude (%) (PHN) 2011-2015

This dataset presents the footprint of the crude percentage of adults who are daily smokers. A current daily smoker was defined as a person who smokes one or more cigarettes, roll-your-own cigarettes, cigars or pipes at least once a day. Chewing tobacco, electronic cigarettes (and similar) and the smoking of non-tobacco products were excluded. As an indication of the accuracy of estimates, 95% confidence intervals were produced. These were calculated by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) using standard error estimates of the proportion. The data spans the financial years of 2011-2012 and 2014-2015, and is aggregated to 2015 Department of Health Primary Health Network (PHN) areas, based on the 2011 Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS).\n\nHealth risk factors are attributes, characteristics or exposures that increase the likelihood of a person developing a disease or health disorder. Examples of health risk factors include risky alcohol consumption, physical inactivity and high blood pressure. High-quality information on health risk factors is important in providing an evidence base to inform health policy, program and service delivery.\n\nFor further information about this dataset, visit the data source: [Australian Institute of Health and Welfare - Health Risk Factors in 2014-2015 Data Tables.](https://www.aihw.gov.au/reports/risk-factors/health-risk-factors-in-2014-15/data)\n\nPlease note:\n\n * AURIN has spatially enabled the original data using the [Department of Health - PHN Areas.](https://www1.health.gov.au/internet/main/publishing.nsf/Content/PHN-Home)\n\n * The health risks factors reported are known to vary with age and the different PHN area populations are known to have a range of age structures. As such, comparisons of results between the PHN areas should be made with caution because the crude rates presented do not account for these age differences.\n\n * Adults are defined as persons aged 18 years and over.\n\n * Values assigned to "n.p." in the original data have been removed from the data.\n\n * Data for PHN102, PHN107, PHN109 and PHN110 should be interpreted with caution, as the estimates have a relative standard error of 25% to 50% and should be used with caution.\n\n * Data for PHN701 (Northern Territory) should be interpreted with caution as the National Health Survey excluded discrete Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and very remote areas, which comprise around 28% of the estimated resident population of the Northern Territory living in private dwellings.\n

本数据集呈现了成年每日吸烟者占比的粗估算值。本次研究将当前每日吸烟者定义为：每日至少吸食1支或以上机制卷烟、自制卷烟、雪茄或烟斗的人群。咀嚼烟草、电子烟（及同类产品）与非烟草制品的吸食行为均被排除在统计范围之外。为体现估算结果的准确性，研究生成了95%置信区间，该区间由澳大利亚统计局（Australian Bureau of Statistics，ABS）基于比例的标准误估算值计算得到。本数据集覆盖2011-2012与2014-2015两个财政年度，数据聚合至2015年澳大利亚卫生与体育部基层医疗网络（Primary Health Network，PHN）区域，聚合依据为2011年澳大利亚统计地理标准（Australian Statistical Geography Standard，ASGS）。

健康风险因素指可提升个体罹患疾病或健康紊乱风险的属性、特征或暴露因素。常见的健康风险因素包括过量饮酒、身体活动不足与高血压。获取高质量的健康风险因素相关数据，可为卫生政策制定、项目实施与服务供给提供坚实的循证基础。

重要提示：
* 澳大利亚城市研究基础设施网络（AURIN）已依托[澳大利亚卫生与体育部基层医疗网络区域](https://www1.health.gov.au/internet/main/publishing.nsf/Content/PHN-Home)对原始数据完成空间适配处理。
* 本次报告的健康风险因素数据会随年龄变化而存在差异，且不同基层医疗网络区域的人口年龄结构各不相同。因此，对不同基层医疗网络区域的结果进行横向比较时需谨慎，因本次呈现的粗率未纳入年龄差异的校正。
* 本次研究中的成年人群定义为年满18周岁及以上的个体。
* 原始数据中标记为‘n.p.’（无有效数据）的条目已从本数据集中移除。
* PHN102、PHN107、PHN109与PHN110区域的数据需谨慎解读，因其估算值的相对标准误差介于25%至50%之间，使用时应格外留意。
* 北领地的PHN701区域数据需谨慎解读，因全国健康调查未覆盖离散的原住民与托雷斯海峡岛民社区以及极偏远地区，而该类区域约占北领地私人住宅中估计常住人口的28%。
