Health consequences of smoking : 50 Years of Progress: A Report of the Surgeon General, 2014

https://bccalibrary.andornot.com/en/permalink/catalog113524

Washington, DC: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services , 2014.

Audience: Professional

2 read online

Place of Publication: Washington, DC

Publisher: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services

Publication Date: 2014

Subjects: Smoking - United States; Nicotine; Substance Dependence; Smoking - adverse effects; Tobacco - adverse effects

Notes: Chapter 6 Cancer includes a section on Adverse Health Outcomes in Cancer Patients and Survivors. The conclusions of this section are (p. 291):; "1. In cancer patients and survivors, the evidence is sufficient to infer a causal relationship between cigarette smoking and adverse health outcomes. Quitting smoking improves the prognosis of cancer patients.; 2. In cancer patients and survivors, the evidence is sufficient to infer a causal relationship between cigarette smoking and increased all-cause mortality and cancer-specific mortality.; 3. In cancer patients and survivors, the evidence is sufficient to infer a causal relationship between cigarette smoking and increased risk for second primary cancers known to be caused by cigarette smoking, such as lung cancer.; 4. In cancer patients and survivors, the evidence is suggestive but not sufficient to infer a causal relationship between cigarette smoking and (1) the risk of recurrence, (2) poorer response to treatment, and (3) increased treatment-related toxicity."
