Indeed, cigarette smoking remains the leading preventable cause of disease and premature mortality1,3 and the mortality risk from smoking has increased over time.1,4 At current consumption rates, about 400 million adults worldwide will be killed by smoking between 2010 and 2050. Half a million adults die from smoking-related causes every year in the United States alone.1,5,6 Smoking affects nearly every organ of the body and causes wide range of diseases and other adverse health effects. Smoking causes or contributes to nearly all the major causes of death in the U.S. including 16 different cancers, heart disease, chronic respiratory disease, cerebrovascular disease, diabetes, chronic liver disease, and kidney disease.1 SN - PB - McGraw Hill CY - New York, NY Y2 - 2024/04/18 UR - accessmedicine.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?aid=1182669139 ER -
