Global burden of disease due to smokeless tobacco consumption in adults: analysis of data from 113 countries

Smokeless tobacco results in considerable, potentially preventable, global morbidity and mortality from cancer; estimates in relation to ischaemic heart disease need to be interpreted with more caution, but nonetheless suggest that the likely burden of disease is also substantial.

Towards estimating the burden of disease attributable to second-hand smoke exposure in Polish children

This study provides a conservative estimate of the public health impact of SHS exposure on Polish children and indicates that lack of comprehensive, up to date health data concerning children, as well as lack of measures that would best reflect actualSHS exposure are major limitations of the study.

Second-hand smoke's worldwide disease toll

Burden of disease from exposure to secondhand smoke in children in Europe

In 2017, the number of deaths and disability-adjusted life years in children attributable to exposure to secondhand smoke in the European Union countries were, respectively, 335 and 35,633.

Mortality Attributable to Secondhand Smoke Exposure in Spain (2011).

Assessment of mortality attributable to secondhand smoke (SHS) exposure among never-smokers in Spain in 2011 found efforts are still needed to reduce the current prevalence of exposure-mainly due to exposure in nonregulated settings such as homes or cars and some outdoor spaces-and the associated morbidity and mortality.

Mortality attributable to passive smoking in Spain, 2002

Exposure to ETS at home and at work in Spain could be responsible for 1228–3237 of deaths from lung cancer and ischaemic heart disease, confirming that passive smoking is an important public health problem in Spain that needs urgent attention.

How many deaths are caused by second hand cigarette smoke?

Attributable risk estimates provide an indication for policy makers and health educators of the magnitude of a health problem; they are not precise predictions.

Disease burden of adult lung cancer and ischaemic heart disease from passive tobacco smoking in China

Even without considering the passive smoking risks for other diseases and among children that have been documented in other countries, passive smoking poses serious health hazards for non-smokers, especially for adult female non-Smokers in China, adding more urgency to the need for measures to be taken immediately to protect the health of non- Smokers and curb the nation’s tobacco epidemic.

Impact of smoke-free workplace legislation on exposures and health: possibilities for prevention

PAFs in Europe and the USA showed that, at current workplace ETS exposure prevalences, the public health impact is substantial and national and statewide smoke-free workplace legislation from different countries shows that such legislation leads to significant reductions in employees' environmental tobacco smoke exposure at work, as well as improvements in respiratory and cardiac health.

Smoking and oral tobacco use

This chapter provides global and regional estimates of premature mortality and disease burden in 2000 caused by tobacco use, including an analysis of uncertainty, and describes a method for estimating the future burden of disease that could be avoided through smoking cessation or prevention.

Environmental tobacco smoke and adult-onset asthma: a population-based incident case-control study.

It is indicated for the first time that both cumulative lifetime and recent ETS exposures increase the risk of adult-onset asthma.

Selected major risk factors and global and regional burden of disease

A prospective study of passive smoking and coronary heart disease.

Regular exposure to passive smoking at home or work increases the risk of CHD among nonsmoking women, and there was no relation apparent between duration of living with a smoker and risk ofCHD.

The abundance of evidence, consistency of finding across continent and study type, dose-response relationship and biological plausibility, overwhelmingly support the existence of a causal relationship between passive smoking and lung cancer.
