Abstract Introduction Differences in smoking prevalence across socioeconomic groups are a major driver of health inequalities. Although continues to decline most developed countries, inequalities still persist. While Ireland is among small number countries with tobacco-endgame goal set achieve 5% by 2025, the challenge this presents status uncharted. Aims and Methods We analyzed how differences various have changed over time adult population Ireland. used cross-sectional data from national population-based Healthy Survey for 2015–2022 (n = 52 494). Educational attainment area-based deprivation were as indicators. Socioeconomic changes inequality identified using relative index (RII). Multinomial logistic regression was analyze association between daily smoking, occasional former never adjustment sex, age, survey year. Results observed highest rates least educated (OR 11.62; 95% CI 9.91, 13.63) individuals living deprived areas 4.23; 3.55, 5.04). Additionally, we significant observation period continued increase, (RII 2.86, 95%CI 2.63, 3.09) 2.64, 2.36, 2.93) Conclusions Despite generally reducing prevalence, continue widen Implications As tobacco endgame deadline 2025 fast approaching, study highlights urgent need consider potential effects lowest when implementing equity-oriented control policies.

Abstract Objectives This study aimed to examine disparities in cancer incidence, stage at diagnosis, and survival rates across districts with differences education levels Oslo, Norway. Methods Aggregated data from the Cancer Registry of Norway period 2013-2021 were used describe distribution incidence Oslo’s 15 administrative districts, subsequently grouped into three areas based on population’s level education. Age-standardised five-year relative calculated for colon, rectal, lung, melanoma, breast, prostate cancer. The time diagnosis was categorised as localised, regional, distant, unknown all types except breast cancer, which I-IV unknown. Results Mid- high-education had higher incidences while low-education area lung a proportion diagnosed distant than other groups studied, mid- overall. Conclusions Incidence, varied between areas. variation indicates healthcare access, quality care, health behaviours. Addressing these can help improve overall outcomes promote equity.
