abstract = {Dissemination and Implementation Science focuses on bridging the gap between scientific research and its practical application in the real world. By identifying and promoting effective strategies, the Science of Dissemination and Implementation disseminates and implements evidence-based interventions in healthcare settings, taking into account the needs, barriers, context, resources, and end users. This special article introduces and debates the most recent advances in this field, highlighting key approaches, theoretical frameworks, as well as specific challenges and opportunities applied to primary and community care. Additionally, concrete examples tailored to the Spanish context are presented. Given the nascent state of the use of the Dissemination and Implementation Science in Spain, the authors recommend strategically adopting this approach and its principles in primary and community care to expedite the adoption of effective interventions that promote health.},

abstract = {OBJECTIVES: To examine prevalence trends in the use of smoked tobacco products in 11 South American (SA) countries (i.e., Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru, Suriname, Uruguay, and Venezuela) and their association with country-specific socio-demographic index (SDI) over 30 years.nnDATA AND METHODS: The estimates of SDI and smoked tobacco prevalence stratified by age, sex, and country were extracted from the Global Burden of Disease Study (1990-2019) on individuals aged 15+. The annual percentage changes (APCs) of trends in country-specific prevalence of smoked tobacco were evaluated using Joinpoint regression. Correlation analysis was also used to explore the association between country-specific prevalence of smoked tobacco and their SDIs, a measure of developmental status considering income per capita, educational attainment, and total fertility rate.nnRESULTS: While all SA countries showed an overall decline in smoked tobacco use prevalence between 1990 and 2019 (APCs between -0.52%-and -4.73%;  < 0.05), Bolivia and Ecuador showed a significant increasing trend (APCs of 0.34% and 0.20%). Country-specific SDI was strongly and significantly correlated (rs = -0.99 to -0.85) with smoking prevalence in SA countries, except for Ecuador and Bolivia (rs = 0.16 and 0.36, respectively).nnCONCLUSION: In recent decades, most SA countries have experienced a significant reduction in the prevalence of smoked tobacco use, except Ecuador and Bolivia, where smoking rates have risen, showing a direct correlation with SDI. These findings can contribute to the design and implementation of strategies and policies for tobacco prevention and control in the SA region especially within the two affected countries - Ecuador and Bolivia.},
