Global Burden of Tobacco
Tobacco killed 100 million people worldwide in the 20th Century Leading preventable cause of death - kills up to half of people who use it Unless urgent action is taken By 2030 tobacco will kill >8 million people each year - 80% in developing countries Tobacco could kill 1 billion people during the 21st Century - unless we act now ACCP Tobacco-Dependence Treatment Tool Kit, 3rd Edition Slides Prepared by Gary A Giovino, PhD, MS 8

 Coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, atherosclerosis, and abdominal aortic aneurysm  Cancers of the lung, larynx, mouth, esophagus, bladder, pancreas, kidney, cervix, stomach, and acute myeloid leukemia  Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pneumonia, premature onset of and an accelerated age-related decline in lung function, all major respiratory symptoms (e.g., coughing, phlegm, wheezing, dyspnea), poor asthma control Source: US DHHS The Health Consequences of Smoking.

Disease Caused by Tobacco Use
Tobacco smoke pollution (secondhand smoke, environmental tobacco smoke) is a cause of:  Lung cancer and coronary heart disease in nonsmokers - 49,400 annual deaths (11% of SAM)  Respiratory infections and symptoms in the children of parents who smoke Smokeless tobacco causes:  Oral cancer  Oral leukoplakia  Dental caries (possibly) Cigars cause:  Cancers of the mouth, larynx, and lung  Coronary heart disease  COPD ACCP Tobacco-Dependence Treatment Tool Kit, 3rd Edition Slides Prepared by Gary A Giovino, PhD, MS

The Health Consequences of Involuntary Exposure to Tobacco Smoke Major Conclusions: Secondhand smoke causes premature death and disease in children and in adults who do not smoke. Children exposed to secondhand smoke are at an increased risk for sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), acute respiratory infections, ear problems, and more severe asthma. Smoking by parents causes respiratory symptoms and slows lung growth in their children.

The Health Consequences of Involuntary Exposure to Tobacco Smoke 3) Exposure of adults to secondhand smoke has immediate adverse effects on the cardiovascular system and causes coronary heart disease and lung cancer. The scientific evidence indicates that there is no risk-free level of exposure to secondhand smoke. Many millions of Americans, both children and adults, are still exposed to secondhand smoke in their homes and workplaces despite substantial progress in tobacco control.

The Health Consequences of Involuntary Exposure to Tobacco Smoke 6) Eliminating smoking in indoor spaces fully protects nonsmokers from exposure to secondhand smoke. Separating smokers from nonsmokers, cleaning the air, and ventilating buildings cannot eliminate exposures of nonsmokers to secondhand smoke.

The Health Consequences of Smoking: Nicotine Addiction Major Conclusions: Cigarettes and other forms of tobacco are addictive. Nicotine is the drug in tobacco that causes addiction. The pharmacologic and behavioral processes that determine tobacco addiction are similar to those that determine addiction to drugs such as heroin and cocaine.

“Moreover, nicotine is addictive… We are, then, in the business of selling nicotine, an addictive drug….” Addison Yeaman; General Counsel to the Brown & Williamson Tobacco Company; July 17, 1963.

Philip Morris on Nicotine….
“Think of the cigarette pack as a storage container for a day’s supply of nicotine…. Think of the cigarette as a dispenser for a unit dose of nicotine… Think of a puff of smoke as a vehicle of nicotine… Smoke is beyond question the most optimized vehicle of nicotine and the cigarette the most optimized dispenser of smoke.” Dr. William Dunn; Philip Morris Tobacco Company, 1972.

R. J. Reynolds chimes in…. “In a sense, the tobacco industry may be thought of as being a specialized, highly ritualized, and stylized segment of the pharmaceutical industry. Tobacco products uniquely contain and deliver nicotine, a potent drug with a variety of physiological effects.” Claude Teague, R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, 1972.
