Preface
Tihi~sreport is acornprehensivereviewof rn~orethan 20! years
of research intlo the problemi of smoking and health. This re-
search has been carried on under the sponsorship of many groups
ini this country andi abroad,, including governments, universities,,
private research institutions„ voluntary healtli, agencies, and; the
tobacco: imdustry.S'even, years ago, an advisory committee to the Surgeon General
concluded that cigarette smoking is a serious hazard tolhealth and
is relatedl to illness and deathl from lung cancer, chronic broncho-
pulmonary disease, cardiovascular disease and other diseases. In
the intervening years, a great deal of new research has been com
pleted.. This has resulted, in ai growing understanding, of the bio-
mechanisms whereby cigarette smoking adversely affects the hu-
rnan organism and, contributes to the~ development of serious
illness.,
It is& encouraging that cigarette consumption in this country is
declining. If this decline can be maintained, it will result in better
health for our population and in fewer deaths among those of' our
citizens who are in their most productive years of life:

GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
T': nia jor develbpment in the modern historyoftlhee#fectsaf ,rr,oK} ng on health occurred in 1950
with the publication of four
rr"r( •,r~~rt.ive studies on smoking, habits among lung cancer pa-
twn, -;:,nd among controls (I„ 4, G„7)., At that time,, the question.

~~,, The first report of Hammond and Horn in 1954t_~. si~,•nificantlyelevated overall death rates
for smokers,
to nonsmokers.. This elevation in death rates, almost
,.c-niined to those,whosmoked!cigarettes, together with~the:c- r-)r a ~;radient according to the
amount smoked, changed
~-ion f rornione concerning only liang, cancer to one concern-
r;ai (ieath rates and from one concerning smoking, to one.
coTacer:nedd with cigarette snaoking:In effect, the question
: r:.•. .'L)o cigarette smokers have higher overall death rates
,.,,n:.niokers and'smokers, of pipe& and cigars?;"
theimbliicationi of thel:at'er reports ofthe majiorprospec-:r. ;adie in the late 1950's and,early
1960's, it became clear that
cIWart•t,e. ;mokers had higher overall death rates than nonsmokers,
a-, v:ril as higher death rates from a number of individiZaI causes
of deuth..The question then becazne,"Why?,"«'hen the Advisory Committee on Smoking and Health to:
the
Surgeon General was established in 1962, it undertook the evalua-
tion of the scientific evidence up to that time. The:conclusion of the
Cc,ngmittee in its 1,9~6'4I Repbrt was that: "`Cigarettesrnoking, is a
health hazard of sufficient importance in, the United States to war-
rant appr opriateremedial action.'"" Not onlxdid theC~ommitteeconclud'e that the evidence clearly
showed that male cigarettee
smokers do in fact have higher death rates than nonsmokers butt
that the convergence of epidemiological, experimental, and path-
olUricad evidence also clearly imdicateda a cause-and-effect relation-
ship for several, of the implicated diseases,, particularly cancer of
tlhelung and, chronic bronchQtis,,, In several ot'herimportantdis-
eases, the evidence oni biornechanisrns to explain epidenlio]ogical
3

associations was felt to: be inadequate at that time to draw firm,
conclusions about a cause-and-effect relationship.
Three and one-half years later:,, when The Health Consequences
of Smoking : A Public Health Service Review, 1967' was publi'shed;,
the conclusions of'the 1964 review were taken as a starting, point,,
and the nature of the task of interpreting the scientific evidence
was& restated as follows :
1. How much mort'ality and excess disability are associated with
smoking?'
2. How much of this early mortality andl excess disability wouldl
not have occurred if people had not taken up~ cigarette smoking?'
3. How much of this early mortality: and excess disability couldd
be averted by the cessation or Vreduction of cigarette smoking,?'
4'. What are the biomechanisrns whereby these effects take place
andl what are the critical factors in these mechanisms?
That and subsequent reviews in 1968 and 1969 have provided
some answers to these questions, particularly in summariziing the
evidence for various theories as to how cigarette smoking affects
the human~ organism to: produce elevated disease and death rates..
At least five different processes have been suggested whereby:
cigaret!te smokers experience higher mortality or morbidity rates
than do nonsmokers,
1. Cigarette smoking initiates a disease process by producing
progressive irreversible damage. In this case, the total effect would
be approximately proportional to: the total accumulated' dosage
experienced over the years. Cessation of' smoking leaves impaire&
function which does not improve appreciably but does not continue
to deteriorate from continued exposure to cigarette smoke. How-
ever, such function may deteriorate through aging or through
exposure.to other harmfull agents. It appears that such a relation-
ship probably exists for chronic obstructive lung disease and posr
sibly for the development of atherosclerotic heart d7sease..
2. Cigarette smoking initiates a disease process with continual
repair and' recovery until some critical'! point is reached at which
the process is no longer reversible: The totall effect would therefore
be affected', to some extent by accumul'atedl exposure but would be
affected also by the level of' contemporary smoking. Cessation of
smoking, would result in a rapid reduction of risk provided the
critical levell ini'tiatimg, an irreversible process has not been
.
reached. The evidence supports this kind of mechanism accounting
both for the high d'ose-response relationshipl in lung cancer and for
the reduction in risk frorn lung cancer among ex-smok:ers:
3. Cigarette smoking promotes a disease process either by
provi:ding positive support to the development of a pathological
condition or by interfering witlh and diminishing the normal capa- .

ii:~ ni+ kers„and is itself responsible for the disease. The one
;, ,ieath for which cigarette smokers have elevated deathh
generally interpreted in this way is cirrhosis of the
:::cti mo;t heavy consumers of alcoholic beverages are smok-
+i:+i >iince aleohol consumption is an important part of' the
nat produces cirrhosis of the liver, the high rate of cirrho-
.,r7if4ias,rcigarettesmokersi~sdiscounted as,resulting, from thisni, ci ()f artificial relationship.
Some authors have proposed that
there may be genetic factors that link smoking andi certain diseases
in this fashion., Obviously, the cessat'iion, of'smokingwoul~dhave no
effect on morbidity or mortality from diseases which are artificially
related to smoking..
These different ways in which, cigarette smoking can be related
t'oie1e%,ated morbidity and mortality rates are important considera-
tions in attempting to estimate the potential public health benefits
of giving up smoking. Fbr some types of relationship, there would
haeno benefsts;for some,, rather small benefit'~s~~;for some,substan-
tial' benefits, taking piace over a long period of time; and for
others, substantial benefits taking place rather rapidly.
During the past few years, a sharp reduction has taken, place
in the cigarette smoking habits of the U.S'. population. The hTla-
5'

tional Center for Flealth~ Statistics has recently published a com-
parison of smoking habitls in the U.S. in 1955 and! 1966 based on
two large scale! household! surveys! (5). These! showed a drop, in,
cigarette consumption in men under 55 years of'age but no appre-
ciable change among those 55 or over. Among women, every age
group showed an increase in the eleven year period. A recent sur-
vey conducted for the National Clearinghouse forS'moking and~
Health, based on, a much smaller sample (approximately 5,000
intlerviews), was conduetied' in the Spring of 1970 (3) (itable 1).
Eveni with the smaller number of cases„ it is clear that a much
larger drop took place in the four years from 1966, to 1970 than
in the eleven years fromi 1955 to 196'6. The drop extendedl to the
age group 55-64 among men, again with no appreciable d'rop
among men over age 6'5'. For the first time, the increase in, smok-
ing among women leveled off,, or even dropped slightly among
women under 55. The increase among women over 551 was of a
lesser magnitude than previously observed.

With the massive changes in smoking behavior which have
taken place among adults in the past few years, largely as an
expression, of the desire to protect health, changes should be ex-
pected in mortality rates among those groups which have experi-
enced the greatest reduction bothiln accumulated dosage: and in
concurrent dosage. An analysis of U.S: mortality rates for 1970
and the years to follow will provide a, very valuable addition to the
knowledge concerning the effects of smoking on death rates.

SUMMARY OF THE REPORT
CARDIOVASCULAR DISEA'SES
Coronary Heart Disease
1. Data frorn numerous prospective and retrospective studies
confirm the judgment that cigarette smoking is a significant risk
factor contributing tlo the development of coronary heart disease,
including fatal CHD and its most severe expression, sudden an&
unexpectedi death. The risk of CHD incurred by smoking of pipes
and cigars is appreciably less tliani that incurred' by cigarette
smokers.
2. Analysis of' other factors associated' with CHD1 (highi serum
cholesterol, high biood' pressure, and physical inactivity) show
that cigarette smoking operates independently of these other fac-
tors andl can act jointly with certaini of them to increase the risk
of CHD appreciably.
3. There is evidence that cigarette smoking may accelerate the
patliophys'iol'ogical changes of pre-existing coronary heart disease
and' therefore contributes to sudden death from CHD.
4. Autopsy studies suggest that cigarette smoking is associated
withi a, significant increase in atherosclerosis of the aorta andl
coronary arteries.
5. The cessation of smoking is associated with the decreasedl
risk of' d'eathi from CHiD.
6. Experimental' studies in animals and humans suggest that
cigarette smoking may contribute to the deveiopment of'CHiD and/
or, its manifestations by one or more of the following rnechaniisms :
a~ Cigarette smoking, by contributing: toi the release of catecho-
lhmines, causes, increasedi myocardial wall tensilon„contractionvel'ocity; and heart rate,
and'thereby increases the work of the
heart andl the myocardial demand for oxygen and other
nutrients.
b:Amongilndividualswith coronary atherosclerosis, cigarette!
smoking appears to create an iinbalance between the increased
needs of the myocardiumi andl ani insufficient increase in cor-
onary blood& flow andl oxy genation.

1'. llnta, from ai number of retrospective studies have indicated
tl,at cigarette smoking is a likely risk factor in the development
of E eripherall vascular disease. Cigarette smoking also appears to
be al factor in the aggravation of peripher.all vascular disease.
2. Cigarette smoking has been observed to alter peripheral blood
iiuw and peripheral vascular resistance.
CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE BRONCHOPULMONARY DISEASE
1. Cigarette smoking is the most important cause of chronic
obstructi~~~e bronchopulmonary disease im the United States. Ciga-
rette smoking increases tlhe risk of d~ing fromi pulmonary ernphy-
senra and chronic bronchitis. Cigarette smokers show an increased
prevalence of respiratory symptoms, including coughy sputum pro-

duction, and' breathlessness, when compared with nonsmokers;
Ventilatory function is decreased in smokers when compared withh
nonsmokers.
2'. Cigarette smoking does not appear to be related to deathh
from bronchial ast'hmas although it may increase the frequency:
and severity of asthmatic attacks in patients already suffering
from this diisease..
3. The risk of'developing or dying frorn COPD among pipe and/
or cigar smokers is probably higher than that among nonsmokers,
while clearly: less than that among cigarette smoker.s..
4. D+ x-cigarette smokers have lower death rates from COPD
than do continuing smokers. The cessat'ion, of' cigarette smoking, is
associated with improvement in ventilatory function and with a
decrease in pulmonary symptom prevalence:.
5:., Young, relatively asymptomatic, cigarette smokers show
measurably alt'ered' ventilatory function wheni cornpared~, with non-
smokers of the same age.
6. For the bulk of the population of the United' States, the: im~
portance of cigarette smoking as a cause.of COPD is much greater
than that of atmospheric pollution or occupatilonall exposure. How-
ever, exposure to excessive atmospheric pollution or dusty occu-
pational materials and cigarette smoking may act jointly to pro-
duce greater COPD morbidity and mortality.
7. The results of experirnent'sin both animals and hurnans, have
demonstrated that the inhalation of cigarette smoke: ils associated
with acute andl chronic changes in ventilatory function and': pul-
monary histology. Cigarette smoking has been shown to alter the
mechanisrn of pulmonary clearance and adversely affect ciliary
function.
8. Pathological studies have shown that, cigarette, smokers who
die of diseases other than COPD have histolbgilc changes charac-
teristic of COPD in the bronchiall tree and pulmonary parenchymaa
more frequently than d'o nonsmokers.
9. Respiratory infections are more prevalent and severe among
cigarette smokers, particularly heavy smokers, than among
nonsmokers.
10. Cigarette smokers appear to develop postoperative pul-
monary complications more frequently: than nonsmokers.,

evidence, confirms the conclusion that cigarette smok-
i; the main cause of lung cancer in men. These studies reveal
t i1:.c th(P risk of developing, lung cancer increases with the number
,rci~carettes smoked per day, the duration of smoking, and earlier
i~:.rtion, and dilminisheswith cessation of smoking.
'. C'irarettesmokingisa cause of lung cancer in women~ but
::cV-)nnts for a smaller proportion of the cases than in men. The
n(,rt tlity rates for women who smoke; although significantly
r:~.,.•her than for female nonsmokers, are lower than for men who
<n10ke. This difference may be at least partially attributable to
;if~:rencesin exposures,: the use of fewer cigarette& perday,, the1_1<e otfiltered and low "tar"
cigarettes, and lower 1'evelsof inhal'a-
' :(ai~ \ evertheless, even when women are compared with men who.
: pnarently have similar levels of exposure to cigarette smoke, the.
n)rtaliO, ratios appear to be lower in women..
:~. Ttieriskof developing lung cancer among pipeand/orcigar~naokery is higher than for nonsmokers
but significantly Iowerthan for cigarette smokers.
-1'. The risk of developing lung cancer appears to be higher
among smokers who smoke high "tar" cigarettes, or smoke in such
a manner as to produce higher levels of' "tar'"' in the inhaled
smoke.
5. Ex-cigarette smokers have significantly lower death rates for
lung cancer than continuing smokers. There is evidence to support
the view that cessation of smoking by large numbers of cigarette
smokers would be followed by lower lung cancer death rates.
6. Increased death rates from lung cancer have beeni observed'
among urban populations when, compared, with populations from
rural environments. The evidence concerning the role of air pollu-
tion in the etiology of' lung cancer is presently inconclusive. Fac-
tors such as occupational and smoking habit differences may also
contribute to the urban-rural difference observe& Detailed epi-
demiologic surveys have showni that the urban factor exerts a,
small influence compared to the overriding effect of cigarette smok-
ing in the development of lung cancer.
mI

7. Certain occupational exposures have been found to be asso-
cilatled with an increased risk of dying, fron7i lung cancer. Cigarette
tobacco smoke. Lung cancer has been found in dogs exposed to t'he
inhalation of cigarette smoke over a period of more than 2' years.
smoke or its component compounds, have confirmed' the presence of
complete carcinogens as we111 as tumor initiators and promoters in~
tracheal instillation or impIantatiion, and inhalation of cigarette
cancer so as to produce very much higher lung, cancer death rates
in those cigarette smokers who are also exposed to such substances.
8. Ekperimental studies oni animals utili'zing, skin painting,
smoking interacts with these exposures in the pathogenesis of lung
Cancer, of the Larynx
1I. Epidemiological, experimental, and pathological studies
support the conclusion that cigarette smoking is a significant fac-
tor in the eausationi of cancer of the larynx. The risk of develop-
ing laryngeal cancer, among cigarette smokers as well as pipe and/
or cigar smokers ils significantly higher than, among nonsmokers:.
The magnitude of the risk for pipe and cigar smokers is about the
same order as that for cigarette smokers, or possibiy slightly
lower.
2. Experimental exposure to the passive inhalation of cigarette
smoke has been observed' to produce premalignant and malignant
changes in the larynx of hamsters.
Oral Cancer
11. Epidemiological andff experimental studies contribute to the
conclusion that smoking is a significant factor in the development
of cancer of the oral cavity and that pipe smoking, alone or in
conjunction with other forms of tobacco use, iis causally related to
cancer of ths lip.
2. Experimental studies suggest that tobacco extracts and to-
bacco smoke contain initiators and promoters of cancerous changes
in the oral cavitg..
Cancer o f the Esophagus
1. Epidemiological studies have demonstrated that cigarette
smoking is associated with the development of' cancer of the esoph-
agus. The risk of developing esophageall cancer among pipe and/
or cigar smokers is greater than for nonsmokers and of about the
same order of magnitude as for cigarette smokers, or perhaps
slightly Iower..
2'. Epidemiologicali studies have also indicated an association
between esophageal cancer and alcohol consurnption, and that alcoL
hol consumption may interact with cigarette smoking. This corn-
12

of exposures is associated with especially: high rates of
cancer of the esophagus.
eari ro r o f the Urinary Bl'adder and'Kidney
1i., Epidern2olbgical studies have demonstratedi ani association of
cigarette smoking with cancer of the urinary bladder among men.
The association of tobacco usage and cancer of the kidney is less&
clear-cut.
`?, f'linicall and pathological studies have suggested that tobacco
smoking may be relat'edI to alterations in the metabolism of tryp~
±cjahan and mayinthi'swaycontribute th~erebytothed'~evelopment
()f urinary tract cancer.
('%tnc•~li• of the Pancreas
l:I)idemiological studies have suggested an association between
cigarette srnoking and cancer of the pancreas. The significance of
the relationship is not clear at t'his tirne..

S,rz ()1; i ng and Ca~n¢er.-Epidemiological studiieshave : confi~rmedlth~atci;;arette smokers
incur, an increased risk of dlying from lung, ean-
cer and that those smokers who switched to; filter cigarettes incur
a'esser risk. Pathologicall studies have showni that cancer of the
iuag and cancer of the larynx have.been found in animals exposed
to the long-term inhalation of cigarette smoke.
SMOKING AND PREGNANCY
.l'laternal smoking during pregnancy exerts a retarding influence
on fetal growth as manifested by decreased infant birthweight and
-in increased incidence of prematurity, defined' by weight albne.
There is strong evidence to support the view that smoking mothers
have a significantlly greater number of' unsuccessful pregnancies
due to stillbirth and neonatal death as cornpared! to~ nonsmoking
mothers, There is insufficient evidence to support a comparable
statement for abortions. The recently published ,Second Report off
the.1958' British Perinatal Mortality Survey, a carefully: designedd
and controlledl prospective study: involving large: numbers of
patients, adds further support to t'he conclusions.
PEPTIC ULCER
Cigarette smoking males have an increased prevalence of peptic
ulcer disease and a greater pept'ic~ ulcer mortality ratio. Theses relationships are stronger for
gastric ulcer than for duod'enall
ulcer. Smoking appears to reduce the effectiweness of' standard
peptic ulcertreatrn~ent and to slow the rate of ulcerheaTiing.

Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) cuts short the lives of many
men, intheWestern World in their primeprodluctive years. More
Americans die from heart disease than, from any other disease. In
1967i, in this country, a total of' 345,1154 men and 227,999 womeni
were classified as dying of arteriosclerotic heart disease (ASHD)
(196),a category which consi6ts largely of what is commonly:
called CHD. During the years from 1950 to 1967,, the age-adjusted
death rate from ASHD, increased 15.1 percent (196,197).
Besides the many deaths attributed to CHD, much morbidity:
results from this disease. The National Health I;xamination Sur-
vey of 1960-1962 estimated that 3.1 million American adults,, ages
18 to 79, had definite CHD and. 21.4 million had suspect CHD,
together representing about 5 percent of the populationL It vTas
further estimated that of Americans under age 65;, almost 1.8 mil-
lion had definite CHD and 1.6 million had suspect CHD1 (195).There are severall manifestations of
CHD, all related in part to
the basic process of severe atherosclerosis, a disease of arteries in
which fatty materials (lipids) accumulate in the form of plaques
in the walls of medium and largearteries. This process, as it occurs
in the coronary arteries, leads to stiffening of the wall and narrow-
ing of the lumen which, when severe, result in a diminution in the
blood supply to: the cardiac muscle. Angina pectoris, a major mani-
festation ofCHD; resultsfromd'im2nution in blood supply relative
to the needs of the myocardium. If the blood supply to, a portion
ofthe myocardium. is completely obstructed., due for example to the
formation of a thrombus at the site of atherosclerotic narrowing,
necrosis or deathi of a portion of heart muscle may occur. This
occurrence is known as a myocardial infarction. In many cases, a
dlisturbance of cardiac rhythm occursat, thetimeofthrombosis;,
and the patient may die immediately. It is estimated that approxi-
mately 25: percent of patients suff ering coronary artery occlusion
die within the first three hoursfoldowing the occlusion: (table1)~
(88). Not infrequently, sudden death occurs in patientswithi severe
coronary atherosclerosis but without a demonstrable arterial occhz~
sibn. In these cases, it is thought that the, meager blood flbw to: a
portibn ofthemyocardiurn becomes so diminished with respect to
cardiac needs as to lead to a fatal arrhythmia, as well as to, per-
haps, a myocardial infarction.

Numerous epidemiological studies have indicated t'hat cigarette
smokers have increased mortality ratios for CHD ;; that is, cigarette
smokers show significantly increased deat'h rates compared With
nonsmokers (table: 2')~. The risk incurred by cigarette smoking', in-
creases With, increasing dosage and,, as measured by rnartality
ratias, iis' more marked for men in the younger age groups, under
age 60; although the' absolute increment in death rates experieneedl
by smokers over that of nonsmokers continues to increase with,
increasing,age: Table 2' lists the mortality: ratiosf©und in the major
studies. Certain of'these studies, i'nc'luding, those' at Framingham,
Massachusetts, the Health Insurance Plan of New York City
(HIP)i, and at Tecumseh, M!ichigan, have analyzed morbidity as
Welll as mortality from CHD and have indiicatedi that the risk of'
developing fatal and nonfatall CHD' is greater among cigarette
smokers than among nonsmokers (tables 3 and 4):. Conflicting
evidence has been published concerning the relationship of ciga,

studies have shown an increased' risk of this manifestation among
smokers, others have not (see table 5).
.
From these longitudinal studies, it has become increasingly clear
that cigarette srnoking, is one of several risk factors for CHD~ andd
that it exerts both an independent effect and an effect in, conjiunc-
tion with the other risk factors. The basic concept may be ex-
pressed as follows: The more risk factors a given individual has,
the greater the chance of' liis developing CHD. The importance of
the constellation of' coronaryriskfact'orswhi~chi includecigarette:
smoking, high bloodl pressure, and high serum cholesterol in pre-
dicting the risk for CI-1'D' is illkzstrated in figures,1 through 3. Other
risk factors are i'ncluded in certain of these figures and are dis-
cussed below.
Knowledge of the effects of cigarette smoke on the cardiovascu-
lar system has developedl concurrently with the knowledge derivedd
from the epidemiological studies. Nicotine, as well as cigarette
smoke, has been shown to increase heart rate, stroke volume, andd
blood pressure, all most probably secondary to the promotion of
catecholamine release from the adrenall gland and other chromafl"in
tissue. This release of catecholamines is also considered to be the
cause of the rise in serum, free fatty acids observed upon, the in~-
halation of' cigarette smoke. Studies concerning the effect of nico-
tine on cardiac rhythm have also suggested that smoking might
contribute to sudden death from ventricular fibrillation.
1'n, addition, research efforts have also been directed toward the
effects of smoking on, blood clota'tingand thrombosis; since many
cases of sudden death and myocardial infarction are associatedd
with thrombosis in a diseased coronary artery branch. Cigarettee
smoking may be associated withi increasedi platelet aggregation in
vitro and thus might play a, role in the develbpment of such throm-
bi or platelet plugs in vivo:.
Other mechanisms have been investigated. Because cigarette
smoking has been shown ini some studies to be related to the prev-
alence of angina pectoris as well' as to the incidence of myocardial
infarction, it has been suggested that smoking enhances the de-
velopment of atherosclerotic lesions. Autopsy andl experimental
studies have shown that cigarette smoking plays ai role in athero-
genesis. Tlie administration of nicotine has been observed to in-
crease the severity of cholesterol'' indluced atherosclerotic lesions in
experiQnental animals. Attention is presently being given to carbon
monoxide, which is present in cigarette smoke ini such concentra,
tions as to cause carboxyhemoglobin concentrations in the blood
of smokers as high as 10 percent. Based on research in, animals,
it is reasonable to conclude that the atherosclerotic process may be
enliancea„ ini part, by the rel'at'ive arterial hypoxemia in cigarette

smokers caused by the increase& carboxyhemoglbbin level.
With respect to the acute event of myocardiall infarction, atten-
t'ion, has been focused on the role of nicotine. Nicotine stimulates
the myocard'ium, increasing, it's oxygen demand. Other, eexperiments
have demonstrated that in the f'aceof dirn~inishedl coronary flow
(due to partiall occlusion, from severe atheroscierosis in man or to
partial mechanical obstruction in the animal), nicotine dbes not
lead to an increase ini coronary blood flow as seeni in the normal
individual. These effects exaggerate the oxygen deficit when the
supply of oxygen has already been decreased by the presence off
carboxyhemoglobin. Thus, a marked imbalance between oxygen
demand (which has been increased) and' oxygen supply (which
has been decreased) is created by the inhalation of' CO and nico-
tine. This imbalance rnay contribute to acute coronary insufficiency
and myocardial infarction..
I
EPIDEMIOLOGICAL STUDIES
Numerous epidemiological studies, both retrospect'ive. and pros-
pective, have been carried out in various countries in order to iden-
tify the risk factors associated with the development of coronary
heart disease (CHD)l. Many of these studies have included' smok-
ing as one of the variables investigated. Tables 2 to 4 present the
major findings.
COR0NARY' HEAR'T DISEASE MORTALITY
Table 2'lists the vari'ous prospective studies concerning the rela-
tion of CHD rnortality and'smoking. These studies demonstrate the
dose-related effect of cigarette smoking on the risk of' devel'oping
CHD!. For example, the Dorn Study of U.S. Veterans as reported
by Kahn (93) reveals progressively increasing mortality rat'ios,
from 1.39 for those smoking, 1 to 9 cigarettes per day to 2.00 for
those smoking more than 39 cigarettes per day. Although the data
are not detailed in the accompanying tables,, severall of these stud-
ies have also shown that increased rates of CHD' mortality are
associated with increasedl cigarette dosage, as measured by thee
degree of inhalation and the age at which smokiaZg, began. Although
not as striking, the data for females reveal the same trends.
In most studies, the smokers' increased risk of dying from CHD
appears to be limited mainly to those who~ smoke cigarettes. Some
studies that have investigated' other forms of smoking have shown
much smaller increases in risk for pipe and cigar smokers when
comparedl to nonsrnokers. However, the recent study by Shapiro,
et all (172) of a large population enrolled in the Healthi Insurance
Plan (HIP) of New York City showed a significantly increased
38

i
#
risk for the development of myocardial infarction and rapidly fatal
myocardial infarction for ai group consisting of both pipe and cigar,
ssmokers.
Table 3 details the findings of the American Heart Association
Pooling Project on sudden death. The Pooling Project, a national
cooperative project of the AHA Councilon Epidemiology, isde-scribedl in table 1 (88). Cigarette
smokers in the 30 to 59, year age
group incurred a risk of sudden death from CHD substantially
greater than that of nonsmokers. Pipe and cigar smokers were
observedl to show a risk slightly greater thani that of' nonsmokers
(table 3).
The relative risk of CHD mortality is greatest among, cigarette
smokers (as well as among those with other risk factors) in the
younger age groups and decreases among the elderly. In table 2',
Hammond and! Horn found that for those smoking, more than one
pack per day, the risk is 2.51 in the 50 to 54 year age group andl
1.56 in the 65 to 69 year age group. Although the relative risk:for
CHD among smokers decreases in the older age groups, the actuall
number of excess deaths among smokers continues to climb
since the differences in death rates between smokers and nonsmok-
ers continue to rise..
CORONARY ~ HEART' DISEASE ~, 1'UDORRIDLTY'
Tables 4 and 5' list the prospective studies carried on in a num-
ber of' countries to identify the risk of CHD morbidity incurred
by smoking. Here, CHD morbidit'y, includes myocardial infarction
as well as angina pectoris. Certain studies, notably those of Doyle,
et al. (54), Keys, et al. (111), and Taylor, et al. (183) include a
number of CHD1 deatJhs in their data that could not be separatedd
out using the information providedl in their respective reports..
As noted in the discussion on CHD mortality, the CHD risk ratio
increases significantly as the number af cigarettes smoked per day
increases. Similarly, the HIP data of Shapiro, et al. (172) show
that the elevated morbidity ratios declined with increasing age as
has beeni shown for mortality ratios.
A recent monograph edited by Keys (111) dealt with the 5-year
CHD1 incidence in malesa:ge40to 59Erom seven, eountri~es.Assnmmarized in table 4, cigarette smoking
was found to be associ-
ated with an increased incidence of CHD in the U.S. railroad
worker population, 2,571 individuals (1183). None of the diifferences
in ratio between smokers and nonsmokers was statistically signifi-
cant for the 13 other population: samples which varied in size from,
505 to 982~ individuals, frorn: the five other countries. (Smoking was
not considered in the two Japanese populations.) When more cases
39

become available to provide greater statistical stability t&the rates,
this intercultural comparison should' prove illuminating..
The results of those studies which have separated out angina
pectoris as a manifestation of CHD' are presented in table 5. Doyle,,
et al. (54) found no relationship between this manifestation of.
CHD andl cigarette smoking. Both Jlenikins, et al. ('90)~ and Kannel,
et al. (94)' observed increasedi risk ratios among male cigarette
srnokers although these differences were not statistically signifi-
cant. More recently, Shapiro, et all (172) found a significantly
increased risk for angina among their male cigarette smokers as
well as increasing risk ratios with increasing dosage among both
males and females, particularly in the younger age groups. A
variety of hypothetical explanations have been advanced to account
for this seeming contradiction. Among these are the relatively
small number of cases, the difficulties associated with the definitive
diagnosis of'the syndrome, and differences in the methods of clas-
sifying those cases of angina pectoris which are followed by myo-
cardial infarction.
RETROSPECTIVE STUDIES
Table A6' presents data from the various retrospective studies
of CHD prevalence. Most of these are case-control studies and show
an increased!percentage of smokers among those with clinical CHD,
when compared with a selected control popul'atlion, usually without
apparent CH'D'. Two of these studies include data on mortality.
THE INTERACTION OF CIGARETTE S1WIOB{ING'AND
OTHER CHD, RISK FACTORS
The preceding, section has reviewed the epidemiologic evidence
which supports the judgment that cigarette smoking is a signifi-
cant risk factor in the development of CHD. 1WTany of the studies
discussed' above have idientifi'ed a number of biochemical~ physio-
Iogicaly and envimonmenta'al' factors, other than cigarette smoking,
which also increase the risk of developing CHiD'. These risk factors
include elevated serumi lipids (particularly serum cholesterol)' andl
hypertension, which, with cigarette smoking, are considered to be
of greatest importance. Other factors are obesity, physical inac-
tivity, elevated resting heart rate, diabetes (as well as asympto-
matic hyperglycemia), electrocardiographic abnormalities, and a
positive family history of premature CHD (88)..
A number of these studies have also found that these factors,
when present in the same individual, exert a combined effect on
the risk of developing CHiD. Figures 1 through 3 depiot, this, inter=
action of risk factors. As may be noted in Figures 1 and 2, the
40
~

additional factor of smoking greatly increases the risk of develbp-
ing CHD among those people already at high risk because of other
factors.
Furthermore, these studies have shown that the effect of smok-
ing on the risk of developing CHD is statistically independent of
the other risk factors., That is, when the effect of the other factors
is statistically controlled, smoking continues to exert a significant
effect on increasing the risk of develbping and dying, from CHD'.
Smoki'ng and Serum Lipids
The interaction~ of smoking and'serurn lipU levels in the deveIop-
ment of CHD should be considered in the light of information con,
cerning, the relationship of smoking to ~ serum lipid levels. Table A 7
presents studies which deal with the association~ between~ smoking
and lipid§, notably cholesterol~ triglycerides, and lipoproteins (con-
cerned with lipid' transport)i. While some of the studies have indi
cat'edI that smokers show increased serum levels of these lipid con-
stituents; others have not. The populations investigated andl the
methods of the variousstudies show significant variation. This lack
of comparability makes interpretat'ion, of'the findings difficult.
It is clear, however, that in the presence of high serum choies-
t'erol, cigarette smoking increases the risk of CHD.. Figure 4 de-
picts the data from the Chicago Peoples Gas, Light and Cbke Com-
pany study which show thatl smoking greatly increases the riskof
CHD: in each of the cholesterol groups:
Smoking and Hypertension
Some epidemiolog,icall studies have indicated that smokers tend
to have lower mean systolic and/or diastolic blood pressures than
nonsmokers, while other studies have not foundlthis to, be the case
(table A8). Reid, et al. (155), ini a study of 1,300 British and.
American postal workers, found that the blood pressure difference
between the smoking, and nonsmoking groups was eliminated after
controiling, for body weight.
Tables 9 through 11, derived from the study by Borhani, et a1L
(27), demonstrate the follbwing associations: That for both smok-
ers and nonsrnokers,, the risk of dying from CHD increases with
increasing, diastolic or systolic pressure, and that the risk of xnor=
tality from CHD' is higher among, smokers than among nonsmokers
in each, blood pressure group. Cigarette smoking, therefore, has
been shown tloelevate, CHD~ mortality independently both of' its
effect on blood pressure and of the effect of hypertension on CHD:

persons participating in the Health Insurance Plan of New: York
City has further identified andl elaborated upon the interaction of
the various risk factors. Physical inactivity, both in employment
and' during leisure', time, was found to be a potent risk factor for
the development of CHD; particularly for rapidly fatal myocardial
infarction.
Figure 5 depicts the effect which smoking exerts on CHD in
combination with physical inactivity. Of' note, also, is the observa-
tion that within each activity grouping, smoking greatly increases
the risk of' myocardial infaretion, thus exerting an independent
effect.

Smoking and Electrocardiographic Abnormalitiea
Electrocardiographic (ECG) abnormalities such as T-wave and
ST-segment changesasw~elli as a number of arrhythrrtiiasar'euse-
ful indicators of CHiD' and may, therefore, be predictive of the
development of clinically overt CHD manifestations~. The results
summarized in table 13, from the prospective study by Borhani,
et al. (27), reflect the joint predictive value of smoking and ECG
abnormalities on the death rate from CHD.
Smoking and' Heart Rate
Recent analysis by Berkson, et al. (;23), of the data derived from
the Chicago Peoples Gas,, Light and Coke Company study of
middle-aged men revealed that resting heart rates of 80' or greater
were associated with an increase in, the risk of death from CHD.
These authors found that t'liis association was independent of the
ot'her major coronary risk factors.
Table 14 presents the interaction between smoking, blood pres-
sure, and elevated heart rate ini increasing the risk of CHD mor-
tality. This study shows that cigarette smoking increases CHD1 risk
in the presence of elevated heart rate as well as in its absence.
THE, EFFECT OF CESSATION OF CIGARETTE'
SMOKING ON CORONARY HEART' DISEASE
A number of epidemiological studies have been concernedl with
the CI+ID, incidence andl mortality among ex-cigarette smokers as
compared with current smokers (51, 76, 88, 90;, 93, 1'72)i. These
studies are listed in table 15. Table 16 presents the data derived by
Cornfield andl Mitchell (45) ' fromi the Dorn Study of U.S. Veterans
(93).
Ex-cigarette smokers show a reduced risk of both myocardial
infarction andl deathi from CHD relative to that of continuing ciga-
rette smokers. The Pooling, Project (88) and the Western Collab-
orative Study Group (192) which adjustedl for the other risk fac-
tors of elevated serum cholesterol and blood pressure observed this
relationship. Hammond and Garfinkel (76) noted that cessation of
smoking, is accompanied by a relative decrease in risk of death
from CHD' within 1 year after stopping.
This decreased risk of CHiD' among ex-smokers further strength-
ens the relationship between smoking and CHD. It must be noted,
liowever, that the group of' ex-srnokers is composed of' individtaals
who have stopped smoking for a variety of reasons. Those whoo
stop because of 'iIl health and the presence of symptoms are gen-
erally at high, risk and can bias the group result's in one direction;
47
~ : :4*,

those healthy persons who stop as part of a general concern about
their health and may adopt a number of self-protective health prac-
tices are generally at low risk and can bias the group results in the
other direction. Therefore, ex-smokers as a group~ are not fully
representative of the entire population of smokers an& may have
limited value in predict'ing what would happen if large nurnbers of
cigarette smokers stopped smoking purely for self-protection. Cer-
tain incidence studles, such as the Pooling, Project (88), were initi-
ated with only: clinica~ll'yhealthyindividuals: Thedata, from such
studies, as well as those from the British physicians study, contain
ex-smoker data less imfluencedi by these biases.
Fletcher and Horn (63) have recently presented drata derived
from the British physicians study of Do1'1i and Hill. Over the past
10-15 years, cigarette smoking rates among British physicians
have declined significantly in comparison with those of the general
British popul'at,ion., The! informat'ion, presented' by these~ authorsconeerning
al'1card'iovasculardiseasesshowed that for indlividuallss
between the ages of 35 and 64, the age~adjlusted death rate for CHD
declined by 6 percent among physicians andl rose by 10 percent
among the male population of' England andl Wales during the
period from 1953-57 to 1961-65.
THE CONSTITUTIONAL HYPOTHESIS
The effect of smoking on the incidence of CHD has been found'
to be independent of the influence of the other CHD risk factors.
When such risk factors as high serum cholesteroli (177), increased
blood' pressure (27), elevated resting heart rate (23), physical in-
activity(172')„ obesity (27),, andi electrocardiographic a:bnormal'i-
tiies (27) have been controlled` cigarette smokers stilll show higher
rates of CHD than nonsmokers.
It has been suggested' by some (39, 170) that the relationship
between cigarette smoking and CHD has a constitutional basis..
That is people with certain constiitutibnalmake-ups are more likely
to develop CHD, and the same people are more likely to smoke
cigarettes. This hypothesis maintains that the relationship between
cigarette smoking and CHD is thus largely fortuitous and that the
significant relationships are between the genetic make-up of' the
individual and' CHD and between the genetic make-up of'the indi-
vidual and his becoming a cigarette smoker. Two sets of'epidemio-
logic data bear on this hypothesis:.
It lias been maintained' that people with a certain temperament
are more likely to smoke and also more likely to develop CHD.
These characteristics have been demonstrated for those with the

U
Type A behavi~orpattern ofRosenmanny et all. (159), whichischaracter.ieed by competitiveness,
excessive drive, and an enhanced
sense of time urgency. The prospective study organized by the
Western Collaborative Group indicates that individuals who ex-
hitai't this type of personality are more' likely to have or develop.
CHD than those without it (Type B)~, whether or not they smoke.
When the incidence rates of CHD1 are analyzedi with respect to
smoking, and personality types (tables A 17, A 18) 1, it is noted that
in both Type A and Type B individuals the incidence of CHD is
greater among cigarette smokers than among nonsmokers. This
research indicates that both personality type, as measured ini these
studies, and cigarette smoking contribute independently as risk
factors to the development of CHD. To what extent such behavior
patterns are determined' const'itut~ionallyorrepresent acquired
charaeterist,ics'isstill open to questiom
The other type of research designed to study the genetic hypoth-
esis has made use of data from registries of' twins. Cederlof,
et a]. (37, 38, 39, 40) have utilizedl the Twin Registries of Sweden
and the Veterans Follow-Up Agency of the U.S: National Academy
of Sciences-N'ationall Research Council to investigate the relativee
cont'ributions of heredity and smoking to cardiovascular and bron-
chopulmonary symptom prevalence. Data obtained by mailed ques-
tionnaires were analyzed for the folllbwing characteristics : zy-
gosity of the same-sex twin pair, urban-rural residence differences,,
smoking concordance, and history of various symptoms. Compari-
sons were made between srnoking, discordant monozygotic (iden-
tical) pairs and smoking discordant dizygotic (fraternal) pairs,
and between unmatched twin pairs and' matched twin pairs. Smok-
ing discordance has been defined somewhat differently in variouss
reports but, ini general~ describes twin pairs ini which the smoking
habits differ between the two members of the same twin pair.
Analyzing the data obtained from 9;319 Swedish twin pairs
(72.3 percent of the possible respondents), Cederlof;, et al. (39)
found that respiratory symptoms were more common arnong' smok-
ers in both the unmatched and matched smoking discordant twini
pair groups. The authors analyzed the data ini two distinct man-
ners. Group A analysis, which did not controt for genetic factors
utilized two groups ; the first composed of all the firstborn, and the
second of those listed second on the birth certificates. Group B''
analysis utilized MZ and DZ twin pairs which were discordant for
smoking, thereby controlling genetic factors. "Angina pectoris,"' as
defined by a certain pattern of responses to the questionnaire, was
found to be more prevalent among smokers in Group A, but this
difference was not present when the data from Group B were an-
alyzed. Males ini the first groupexhibited~ a'"hypermorbidity ratio"
49'

of 1.6, while those in the second group were found to have one of
approximately 1.1. The authors concluded that this d'ifference be-
tween the two groups provides better support for the importance
of constitutional factors as against the importance of' cigarette
smoking in the development of' angina pectoris..
A similar study was done using the responses of'4,3'Z9 U.S! Vet-
eran twin pairs (approximately 60 percent of estimated available
total) who completed the mailed questionnaires (38). Cederlof, et
al. found a significantly increased prevalence of chest pain and
"angina pectoris" among smokers when Group A was analyzed.
Analysis of the smoking-discordant matched twin pairs (Group B)
reveale.d, no association betweeni smoking and cardiovascular symp-
toms among the monozygotic pairs. The dizygotic pair data did
show a slight association. The authors conclludledi that this lack of
association among the monozygotes and its presence among, the
dizygotes and unmatched pairs strengthens the case for a constitlu-
tionall hypothesis.
A major problem in these studies is the small number of cases
available and, therefore, the statistical instability of the results.
In the Swedish st'udy, among the 274 monozygotes; only 19 smokers
and 16 nonsmokers were classified as having angina pectoris while
among the 733 dizygotes, 25 smokers and 25 nonsmokers were so
classifiedi. In neither group was the difference between the prev-
al'ence ratios foundi in the Group A analysis and that in the Group
B analysis of statistical significance. Analysis of'the data on women
shows ai similar lack of significance.
Similarcritic,ismsmay be made ofthestudy which utilized theU.S, Veteran Twin Registry. In that
study, the authors observed
that the difference in the prevalence of angina pectoris between
the low-cigarette-exposure and' high-cigarette-exposure dizygotic
groups was not present among the monozygotes. T'he authors ques-
tioned whether the excess morbidity associated with, cigarette
smoking foundl ini the dizygotic group was causal as it was not pos-
sible to reproduce the association when studying, monozygotic
smoking-discordant twin pairs. As noted above, the numbers in this
study are alsoismall solthat the differences in rates db not approach
statistical significance.
Tibbl'in (188) has questionedlthe value of a mailed questionnaire
to diagnose heart disease. The questionnaire as originally con-
structed' was used and validated by interview technique alone (157,
158). Cederlof, et al. (40) conductedi a study to determine the
validity of this questionnaire as a rnailed'i instrument by personally
interviewing,and examining 170, of the twin pairs who had replied.
Of the eight males who were diagnosed as having, "angina pectoris"'
by the qiuestionnaire. four were found to be free of' symptoms on
50

clinilcaT examination, while among 204 responding negatively, two
were found' to have anginai by clinical criteria. hTane of the 11
women who were diagnosedl as positive by questionnaire was found
to, be clinically affected~ andiof the 136'reporting as negative, three
liad' symptoms of anginal pectoris.
Other major diffi'culties associated with these studies include the
problems of' using prevalence data in the investigation of a disease.
(CHD'), from which a significant number of' those affected! diie.
shortly after the onset of symptoms, the inclusion of ex-smokers
in the smoking populatinn„ andi the low numbers of heavy cigarette
smokers ini the Swedish population.
In generaly the problems of' using twin, registries to study the
etiology of cardiovascular disease with mortality and morbidity
ratios ini the neighborhoodl of 2 to I are much more dif0cul't than
in studying the etiology of bronchopulmonary disease in, which the
relationships are of the order of magnitude, of 4t'o1.1Vlorerecent'ly, Fkiberg,et alL (169),
reportedl on, mortalitydatay from the Swedish, Twin Registry. The authors suggested that part
of the increased mortality observed among smokers when com-
pared with nonsmokers was not' due to, smoking per se but to fac-
tors associated with smoking: The very small' numbers of' total
deaths presently available (47 deaths among 706 d7zygotic pairs
and 13 deaths among 246 monozygotic pairs) do not provide a sta-
tistically stable base for deriving, any conclusions at the present
time.
Hauge, et al. (81) have recently reported on the influence of
smoking on, the morbidity and mortality observed in the Danish
Twin Register. Among 762' monozygotic and same-sexed dizygotic
twini pairs, angina pectoris was found to, be significantly more fre-
quent in those cotwins with a higher consumption of tobacco than
in those with a lower or no consumption, A similar tendency was
observed' for myocardial infarctions but was not of statistical!
significance.
Seltzer, who has been a proponent of the constitutional hypothe-
sis, in a recent review of some of the experimental, clinicals, and
pathological data relating smoking and' CHD; concluded that the
evidence from these areas has not "reasonably substantia.ted"' the
"hypothesis" of'the acute effect of cigarette smoking on the coro-
nary circulation, nor has the chronic effect of cigarette smoking on
the cardiovascular systemi been shown to be a"elear" and con-
sistent one (170). His views are contrary to those of most re-
searchers in this field.
Although the data from the twin studies are inconclusive withh
regard to a role for genetic factors in heart disease, it wouldi be
surprisina, if genetic factors did not play su'ch, a role. It is open to
511

question whether findings from twin studies can be used' to distin-
guish between the hypothesis that genetic factors govern the levell
of' host susceptibility or resistance to the effects of an exogenous
influence such as cigarette smoking andi the hypothesis that genetic
factors "cause" bothi heart disease and' smoking.
AUTOPSY STUDIES RELATING SiVlQKIIVG,
ATHEROSCLEROSIS, Ah1D' SUDDEN CHD' DEATH
A number of researctiers have investigated the cigarette smoking,
habits and the cardiovascular, pathology of those individuals dying
suddenly from CHD1 and' of large populations of' individuals with
andl without histories of overt CHD.
Spain and Bradess (175) recently analyzedi the smoking habits
of' 189 individuals who died suddenly and unexpectedly, apparentlly
from the first acute clinical, episodes of CHD. The authors noted aa
close correlation of a history of cigarette smoking with this type
of sudden death and' also with shorter survival, times following the
acute episode. This association was strongest in those persons
under 50 1years of age.
The authors also observed that those surviving very short pe-
riods of'time showed a notable lack of intracoronary artery throm-
bi at autopsy and that the frequency of thrombi present increased
with increasing survival time. They suggested that thrombi found
at autopsy may be the result rather than the cause of certain
instances of myocardial infarction„ particularly of lesions showing
subendocardial necrosis. This finding is of significance in the study
of the effect of' smoking on myocardial metabolism and oxygen
supply and demand rather than on t'hrombus or platelet plug,
formation.
While the autopsy study of Spain and Bradess (175), concerned
sudden death among smokers, other autopsy studies from various
countries have been directedi towards the relationship of cigarette
smoking to the presence of atherosclerotic disease in the aorta and'
coronary arteries. These are concerned with the long-term effects
which smoking has on the cardiovascular system and are sum-
marized in table 119. The studies of Auerbach, et al. (12),, Avtan-
dilov; et al, (13), Sackett, et al. (165), andl Strong, et al. (182))
found that aortic and coronary atherosclerosis were more common
andi more severe among sxnokersthan among nonsmokers. Auerbach,,
et al. (12) noted that this relationship persist'ed, when the cases
were matched for both age and cause of death or when the follow-
ing cases were excluded; men with a history of diabetes; men who
had! died of any type of' heart disease; and men whose hearts
weighed 400 grams or more. Sackett, et al. (1165) found! that the

this dose-relationship persisted when the patients were matchedd

(200)' concluded' from their study of accidental deaths in Chile
that "'no relationship between atherosclerotic lesions andl the use

higher percentages of diseased areas than nonsmokers, but appar-
ently these differences were not statistically significant when sub-
jectedi to~ an analysis of variance.
Thus, in addition to the acute effects which smoking exerts onn
cardiovascular physiology, cigarette smoking is associated with a
significant increase in atherosclerosi's..
EKPER'IMiENTAL STiJDIiES~ CONCERNING THiE~
RELATIONSHIP OF CbRONAEZY HEART DISEASEI
AND SMOKING
Several areas of interest in cardiovascular pathophysiology have
been investigated in the search for the mechanisms by which ciga-
rette smoking contributes to cardiovascular disease, particularly
coronary artery disease. Previous Public Health Service Reviews
(191., 192, 193, 198) have described in detail and' commented oni
the results of experiments by many teams of researchers.
Central to the discussion which follows is a concept of cardiac
physiology which provides a framework for analysis and under-
standing of'tlie varied research. That concept concerns the.dynamic
balance between myocardial oxygen need and supply.
CARDIOVASCULAR EFFECTS oF' CIGARETTE SMOKE AND NICOTINE
The inhalation of tobacco smoke or the parenteral administra-
tion of nicotine has been foundi by many researchers to be asso-
ciated with a number of specif c acute cardiovascular responses..
These responses have been observed in human as well as animal
subjects, including increased heart rate, blood' pressure, cardiac
output, stroke volume; velocity of' contraction, myocardial contrac-
tile force; myocardiall oxygen consumption, arrhythmia forrna!tion,
and electrocardiographic or ballistocardiographic changes (tables
AW to A22)~. The effect of these responses on coronary blood flow
will'! be discussed in a following section.
That the acute effects observ.edfollowing the inhalation of ciga~-
rette smoke are due primarily to the nicotine present in the smoke
may be seen in the results of a number of experiments. In humans„
I'rving and Yalnamota (b'9) and Von Ahn (202)~ duplicated the

effects of cigarette smoking by the administration of'nicotine intra-
venously. Similar results in animals were noted by Kien and
Sherrod (112).
The mechani'smi by which cigarette smoke and henee nicotine in-
duces these changes has been of interest to numerous investigators.
Nicotine has long, been known as a, stimulator of both sympathetic
and parasympathetic ganglia~ Research has centereds therefore, on,
the function of catecholamines, mainly epinephrine and norepi~-
nephrine; as mediators, of these responses. Ueing isolated rabbit
atrial myocardium, Burn and Randl (35) noted' that the prior ad-
ministration of reserpine to the perfusate blocked the increased'
rate and amplitude of contraction seen following the administra-
tion of nicotine. West, et a]. (208) showed that the in vivo cardiac
stimulating effect of nicotine was blbcked by tetraethylamrnonium
chlbride. Leaders and Long (125), Romero and Talesnik ('156 ),
and, rnore recently, Ross and~ Blesa (160) have all demonstrated
this blockade in animals using agents such as pentolinium, hexa-
methoniums guanethidine, and reserpine.
More direct evidence of the catecholamine-releasing effect of
nicotine has been found by Watts (203)' and V4'estfall~ et al. (209,.
210, 211) (table A22). Among animal subjects, nicotine adminis-
tration and the inhalation of the smoke of' standard cigarettess
caused significant increases in peripheral arterial epinephrixne llev-
els, while cornsilk cigarette smoke inhalation evoked no suchh
change. In humans, cigarette smoking was found to be associated
with a significant increase in urinary epinephrine excretion.
The source of these nicotine-released catecholam2nes; particu-
larly those which mediate the immediate and lbcal cardiac re-
sponses to intracoronary injections of' nicotine,, is felt to be thee
myocardial chromaffin, tissue (35, 160). The more widespread
effects are most probably mediated by hormones released from the
adrenal gland.
According to recent research of Saphir and' Rapaport, catechol-
amine release may not be the sole mediator of these responses
(166). These investigators reported that intra-arterial injections
of' nicotine into the mesenteric circulation of cats were followed
within 1 to 2' seconds by enhanced myocardial performance, in-
creased left ventricular systolic pressure, and increased systemicc
resistance. Section2ng, of' the mesentleric afferent nerves ledl to a
diminished response. The authors concludedi that the cardiovascu-
lar response to nicotine may also be neurogenilc in nature. Nadeau
andl James (142) injected nilcotinedirectly into thesinus, node
artery of dogs and noted ani initial' bradycardia, dhze probably to
direct vagal stimulation, followed by tachycardia, due probably to
catecholamine release..
57

That the presence of nicotine may predispose the myocardzum,
particularly a, hypoxic or previously damaged rnyocardi,um, to ar-
rhythmia formation is suggested by the research of Balazs, et a1L
(16),, Bellet, et al. (21), andl Greenspan,, et all., (70. Balazs pro-
duced myocardial lesions in dogs either by pretreatment with isa
proterenol or ligation of the anterior descend2ng coronary artery.
It was found that while norrnal' animals did not develop arrhy-
thmias upon challenge with small doses of intravenous nicot'ine;,
the animals~wit'hdama~gedi rnyocardiu~rns responded wi'thinereasedl
arrhythmial formation shortly after their spontaneous arrhythmias
had ceased. More recently, Bellet, et al. (20)~ studied the effect of
cigarette smoke inhalation on the ventricul'ar fibrillation threshold
in anesthetized dogs. They observed' a statistically significant de-
crease in the threshold following smokeinhalatiom Greenspan, ett
al. (,74)1, using isolated dog, right ventricular myocardium, ob-
served that nicotine perfusion increased the automaticity of the
Purkinje fibers system and decreased the conduction velocity:. The
authors. consider that these two nacotine-indtxced, effects probably
predispose the myocardium to the initiation of arrhythmias.
CORONARY BLOOD FLAw
Studies in animals and' hurrrans (tables A20, A21) have noted
alterations in coronary blood flow (CBF) following the inhalation
of cigarette smoke or the administration of nicotine. Generally;,
exposure of the normal' subject to these agents results in an in-
crease in flow. Kien and Sherrod (1'12),, Leb, et al'. (12&), R;oss
and'Blesa, (1,60)~, Tkavell,etaL (189),, and West et al. ('208),
working with normali animals,, and Bargeron, et al.(1?')„ working
with normal humans, have demonstrated this response.. As with
the other cardiac responses to the administration of nicotine, it has
been found that the augmentation in CBF is most~probably due to
the release of catecholamines: Using instantaneous coronary arte-
rial flow measurement in dogs, Ross and B'l esa (160) were able to
reproduce the effects of intracoronary nicotine vvithi the adininis-
tration of epinephrine and were able to block the response to nico-
tine by pretreatment with pentolinium.
'I1he direct aetion of catecholamines, on the coronary arteries
may not, however, be solely responsikile for the increase in CBF
seen with cigarette smoking and intravenous nicotine adkninistra,
tion. It appears that the cateeholamine-induced increase in myo-
cardial work and tlherefore in, myocardial oxygeni requirement is aa
prerequisite for the increase in CBF. Kien and' Sherrod (112),
using tracheostomized dogs, found that without blood pressure and'
cardiiacoutput changes CBPdi~dl not increase following either the,
inhalation of cigarette smoke or the ad',min2stration of nicotine

int!ravenousl.,, although CBF did increase following, such changes.
Recent work by Leb, et al. ('126)' has utilized Rb11" as a radioactive
marker in order to~ distinguish capillary flow from overall total
CBF. The authors consider, that this capillary flow represents that
portion of CBF which is effectively involved in~ nutrient and
oxygen exchange. The researchers observed'that the increase in
effective coronary flow was almost proportional to the nicotine.
induced increase in myocardial oxygen consumption. However, the
increase in total coronary flow which may be due to increased
myocardiall shunting was far in excess. Thus,, the imcreased~ workk
evoked by the effect of" nicotine on the myocardium may induce
local hormonal release in the myocardium and coronary vessels
leading to coronary vasodilatation and increased CBF.
This homeostatic response to increased work appears to be fully
effective only in the subjects with normal coronary arteries. Bellet,
et al. (22), working, with normal dogs and dbgs that had under-
gone eit'her coronary artery ligation or artificially-indluced coro-
nary artery narrowing, n~ted' that the increase in CBF following
the intravenous administration of nicotine was signifieantly less
among the animals with coronary insufl'iciency. Work with humans
discussed above has revealed a similar increase in CBF with smok-
ing ini normals. Regan, et al. (154) studied seven, men with EKG-
proven myocardial infarction and observed that cigarette smoke
evoked slight increases in myocardial oxygen consumption in only
three patientls and caused no overall rise in CBF. A number of'
ot'her, iinvestigators have noted that patients with overt CHD db
not respond to the stiQnulus of cigarette smoke as readily as do
normals (67, 1w9, 164).
Thus, patients with compromised coronary circulation may not
be capable of increasing their coronary flow in the face of'the in-
creased demands of al myocardium stimulated by nicotine or ciga-
rette smoke. In the normal state, the heart responds to increased
oxygen demands by increasing coronary flow because even at rest
oxygen extraction is almost at a maximal level. Any further in-
crease in extraction may produce coronary sinus p!02 values incom-
patiblle with proper tissue oxygenation.
CARDTOVASICULAR' EFFECTS OF CARBON 1VI0N©xIDE.
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless and odorless gas, low
levels of which have significant effects on human and animal physi=
ology which are j ust now beginning to be understood. According,
to Wynder and Hbffrnann (215), it is present in cigarette smoke
in concentirations of approximately 2.9 to 5.1 percent. The concen-
tration of' CO in smoke is subject to rnany factors, among them
59

the type of' tobacco and the porosity of cigarette paper.Tlie con-
centrationi of' CO in smoke has been found to increase significantly
toward the last puffs of the cigarett'e.According to: Chevalier, et al. (4Z)1, a concentration of

rnatel'y: 4 percent,Mini cigarette smoke will produce alveolar ~ levels,
of' around 0.04 percent which;, equilibrated with hemoglobin, result

cent.A, number of 'investigators have compared COI-1blevelsin
smokers and nonsmokers. Goldsmith and Landaw (73) reported
the analysis of expired air samples obtained: from 3,311 longshore-
men. Using a regression analysis, they calculated the con:centra.
tion of COHb and found that nonsmokers showed levels of 1.2' per-
cent while those smoking over 2'1 packs per day had levels of 6.8
percent and that smokers of lesser amounts had intermediate
levels. Occupational exposure accounted for the mean nonsmokers'

human physiology.,An.overalilireviewof these~ effectsmaybefounds in a d'iscus~sion, by Lilienthal
(1.27) or more recently in an exten-
sive review by the. United States Public Health Service National
AirPollu~tionControlAdminist'.ration (1~944. Apart from its' effects,
.
on respiratory and circulatory function, CO' has been found' to
affect certain cent'ral' nervous syst'em functions adversely. These
effect's are probably due to interference by CO with the proper
oxygenationi and oxidative metabolismm of the tissue in question.
CO int'erferes wit'lih oxygen transport in a variety of ways.First,
the affinity of hemoglobin for CO is approximately 20U times
greater than its affinity for oxygen, and thus CO can easily dis-
place oxygen, from hemoglobin. 5econd,, C0, shifts the oxyherno-
globin di'ssociationcurve.By increasing theavid'itywithwhich
oxygen is bound' by hemoglobin, CO interferes with! 0, release at
the tissue level. This is of greatest importance at the tissue level
where the oxygen content of the capi]lary blood has been reduced
to' approximately 40, percent saturation. Here the shift can sub-
stantially decrease the oxygen tension supplying the tissues.
Third„ and of more recent note, is t'he possible interference by
CO with the homeostatic mechanism by which: 2, 3-diphosphogly-
cerate (2, 3-DPG), controls the aHinit'y: of hemoglobin for oxygen.
Bunn and Jandl (13.4) have recently reviewed the various experi-
6m,

ments concerning this glycolytic intermediate. The question of'
whether the low levels of CO present in the blood of smokers can
affecttihis homeostiasi& is! presently underinvestigation(29~, 143)~,
and'firm conclusions cannot be drawn at this time.
Apart' from its effect on hemoglobin affinity, CO, appears to
induce ar.terial hypoxemia, andl this may act as ani additiional cause
of tissue hypoxia. Ayres, et al. (14',,1'S), observed unexpectedly that
exposure of individuals to CO sufficient to raise their levels of
COHb to between 5 and~ 110 percent was associated with ai signifi-
cant fall' in arterial p0,. Greater fal'11 in venous p0: was noted,
but this was considered secondary to increased tissue extraction.
Ini a recent article, Brody andl Coburn (30')' suggested that thils
COHb-inducedi arterial hypoxemia was due to, the interaction of a
number of factors. These: authors notledl that in the presence of
veno-arterial'shunts or of an imbalance in the ventilation-perfu-
sion ratio, the shift in the oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve in-
creased the alveolar-arterial 0~, gradient and resulted'! in arterial
hypoxemia. The presence of shunts as small as 2 percent of cardiac
output as well as of' approximately 10 percent COHb: was found'~
to cause ani increase in the gradient. Such ventil'ation~-perfusion
(V/Q) abnormalities have recently~ been noted even in asymp-
tomatic smokers (see Chapter on Chronic Obstructive Broncho-
pulmonary Disease). The increased levels of' COHb found in the
blood of' smokers may interact withi these V/Q abnormalities to
further decrease available oxygem
In normal individuals, coronary flow can increase to meet the
increased oxygen demands of' a stressed myocardium (as that
und'ernicot'inestimulation), whilein, individuals with severe CHD:
coronary: flbw cannot respond as readily. In such cases, myocardial
oxygen extraction must be increasedl above the almost maximall
extraction foun6 at rest. Any int'erference, with arterial oxygen,
levels or hemoglobin affinity couldl very well decrease available
oxygen suppl7es below the level required for proper tissue func-
tion. That this occurs is suggested by the experiments discussed
below.
Chevalier, et al. (41) exposed 10 young nonsmokers to, CO, con-
centrations su~fficient to induce COHb levels of approximately 4'1
percent. Taking measurements fromi blood specimens obtainedi at
cardiac catheterization under resting, andl exercise conditions,, the
authors notedl that the ratio: of oxygen debt to oxygen, uptake in-
creased' significantly under conditions of increasedl COHb. Accord-
ing to the investigators this implied that the same work was being
done at a greater metabolic cost. These same authors (121, 122))
had previously not'ed'similar findings anlong smokers and observed

that cessation of smoking, was associated with a significant irn-
provement in oxygen debt accumulation,,
lhtorerecen.t work byAyres,etal,('15~) hasl focusedl on the~ dif-ference in response to: CO exposure
between 7 normals and 4 pa-
tients suffering,frorn C'HD' (proven arteriographieal']y). The,induc-
tion ofa, COHb concentration of approximately 9 percent ini the
normals was followed by an increase in coronary blood flow, a
decrease in hemoglobin-oxygen~ percent: extraction andl no, change
in myocardiall oxygeni consumption, coronary sinus oxygen tension;,
and lactate and pyruvate extractioni ratios. The induction, of' simi-
llar COHb levels in the CHD patients was followed by no change
in coronary blood flow; a decrease in the hemoglobin oxygen ex-
traction ratio, and no change in myocardial oxygen consumption.
However, these patients, didl m~anifesta_ decrease incoronarysinusp.02, as well as a decrease in
lactate and pyruvate extraction. The
latter measures indicate that the xnyocardium, was functioning
under hypoxic condfitions: Because the coronary flow could not in-
crease and' because the myocardium could, not extract GZ f'rorn:
Hb02 which was under the influence of CQ, coronary sinus oxygen
tension decreased tol a point whichi could inactivate certain oxida-
tiveenzyme processe& , Thus,, the myocardial, function ofpers~ons,
with C'HD may be unable~ to, compensate for the stressesiniduceds by smoking.,
Although COiHbl levels resulting from the CO present in the
atmosphere during periods of high air pollution are much lower
than those d!ue to the inhalat'ionl of cigarette smoke, these concen-
trationis of COHb might contribute to the manifestations of CT-ID.,
Cohen, et al. (44) studied the case fatality rates for patients ad-
mittedl to 3~5I:os Angellesarea , hospitals with myocardial infarctioni
in relation to atmospheric CO pollution. The authors observed ann
increased NIZ case fatality rate in areas of increased pollution~„ and
thenonlyd'uringperiodsof'relativelyincreasedi CO l pollution.,
An area of interest which has been discussed in previous reports
concerns the presence of hydrogen cyanide in tobacco smoke.
According to: Wynder and'. Hoffmann (215),, the amount present
ranges from I1'l to 32 micrograms HCN per puff. It is known that
al significant amount of thisl material is detoxified to thiocyanate
and excreted as such ini the: urine or saliva. However, cyanide is al
potent inhibitor of oxidative metabolism. Such inllibition of myo--
cardial oxildlatiive, metabolism~~may~belof importance whenl combinedd
with the other factors mentioned above whiclr.tend to decrease the
oxygen supply available andincrease the need.r for oxygen on, the
part of'the myocardium.

EFFECTS OF SMOKING ON THE FORMATION OF
ATHEROSCLEROTIC LESIONS
A number of' autopsy studies have demonstrated a significant
association between cigarette smoking and the presence of aortic
and' coronary artery atherosclerosiis;, even in meni without a hisy tory of' clinical CHD1. The
possible pathophysiologic mechanisms
for the atherogenic influence of cigarette smoking, are discussed
ini this sectionL
A rnamber of investigators have studied the effect of nicotine
administration, either subcutaneously: or intravenously, upon athe-
rosclerotic changes in the aorta and coronary arteries of animals
(table A23). When administered' alone, nicotine induces certain
necrotic changes in the arterial wall. However, in combination
withi the administration of increasedi amounts of cholesterol in thee
diet, nicotine aggravates either subendbthelial fibrosis (7"5)i or
definite atheromatous lesions (i46„ 75, 80, 130, 178), Studies by
Choil (42) and by Wenvel, et al. (.207) did not demonstrate tliis
synergism, between cholesterol and nicotine.
The other rnajor, ccigarette smoke component under discussion
in this chapter, carbon monoxide; has a]so been recently implicated
in atherogenesis: Table 24 presents the studiies which have relatedd
exposure to CG in combinatiioni with increased dietary cholesteroll
to both rnacroscopiicand m~icroscopic! aortic and coronary athero-,
m~atosis., Astrup, et al. (10) 1 exposed cholesterol-fed rabbits to CO
continually over a periodl of up to 10 weeks, The experimental
group showed' increased aortic atherornatosis over that shown by
the control group,, also cholesterol-fed. Kjeldseni„ et al'., (114:),
observed that exposure of rabbits to increased oxygen concentra-
tions significantly reduce& the amount of cholesterolLinduced
atheromatosis in rabbits. Most recently, Webster, et al. (204) have.
extended this research to primates. These investigators found~ thatt
cholesterol-fed squirrell monkeys developed significantly more
coronary artery atherosclerosis when exposed intermittently to, C.O'
over a 7-month periodlt'h.an wheni exposed only to room air.
)at'ecent discussion has centered on the mechanisms whereby CO1
can induce these changes (9, 212). Astrupi (9), referring to, pre-
vious experiments in humans which, had shown increased' vascular
permeability for albumin upon chronic exposure to CO (11'), con-
siders it likely that this increase in permeability allows for in-
creased filtration of lipoproteins into arterial walls: This, he, con-
siders, is a primary cause of intimal and medilal~ lipid accumul'atibni
and, therefore, of atherosclsrosis.
Another point of view has been stressed by Whereat (212), who
consi ders the filtration theory to be an inadequate hypothesis for
63'.

mural lipid accumulation. The author notes that when the oxid'a-
tion of the pyridine nucleotide„ nicotinamideadenine dinucleotide
(NAD), is impaired~ the reduced form of this nucleotide (NADH)
provides an essential factor for fatty acid synthesis. Fatty acid
synthesis in the aorta and heart is carried out by mitochondrial
enzymes whose hydrogen donor is NADH. aubstances which slow
or impair the reoxidation of this compound tend to increase mito,
chondrial fatty acid synthesis (and decrease fatty acid utiTizationi)
in the arterial wall. Carbon monoxide prevents thiis' oxidation proc-
ess both directly and indirectly. Indirectly, it decreases the oxygen
available for diffusion into the tissue. Directly, carbon monoxide
can stall the process .of' NADH oxidation by combining with cyto-
chrome oxidase. Further research is required into this problem,,
particularly in view of' the fact that cyanide is also a respiratory
chain inhibitor and thus may also adversely affect arterial! wa11'i fat
metabolism.
THE'EFFECT OF'SIWTOKING'ON SER!Um IL+IPID I'.EVELS'
In the discussion concerning the epidemiological aspects of CHD,
it was noted that increasedl serum cholesterol was a significant
risk factor for the develbpment of overt CHD. Serum trilglycerides
have als& been rel'atle& to CHD incidence. Of concern also is the
immediate effect which cigarette smoking has upon blood lipid
levels.
The: studies concerning this immediate effect are presented in
tables A 25 and A 25a. The table is divided into a section concern-
ingstudi~eson humans (table A25)! and oneconcerning, studies,
utilizing animals or in vitro systems (table A 2'5a) . Although noo
consistent response was noted for serum cholesterol, serum free
fatty acids were found consistently to rise following smoking. As
with other cardiovascular reactions to nicotine and smoking, it
appears that the fatty acid response is also mediated' by catechol-
amine release. This relationship has' been observed in a number
of experiments by Kershbaum, et al. (105, 106, 108, 1'09, 110) and
Klensch (118). That nicotine is primarily responsible for this rise
may be seen by reference to the study by Kershbaum, et al. (105)
in which lettuce-leaf cigarettes of minimal nicotine content had a
negligible effect upon serum free fatty acids in comparison with
that of' regular cigarettes.
While attention has been centered upon nicotine as the agent
inducing the immediate increase in serum lipids, recent studies
have been concerned with the effect of chronic exposure to carbon
monoxide on serum lipid metabolisrn, These studies are listed in
table A26. Among rabbits fed~ increased amounts of ' cholesterol,
65

the authors observedi significant increases in c'holesterol and' tri-
glyceride concentrations in those exposed' to COi versus thosee
maintained in a normal atmosphere.
THE' EFFECT oF, SMOKING ON THR'OIWIBOSIS
In the study of CHD!, a number of' investigators have turned'
their attention to thrombosis because myocardial infarction and
sudden coronary death frequently result from thrombotic events.
A thrombus may be of either gross or m2eroscopic dimensions, and
a minute throm;bus at a strategic site may precipitate a fatal ar-
rhythmia. However, thrombotic and prethrombotic states are dif-
fiicuilt to detect except when gross, and the emphasis has been pri-
marily on factors which can be studied conveniently. Coagulation
is now thought to have a second'ary role in the consolidation of' an
arterial thrombus and little if' any in initiating the process. The
prime mechanism in thrombogenesis appears to be the reactilon of
the platelet. Several papers have been, written about platelet re-
activity in vitro but few about the effect of' smoking, on platelet
behavior in vivo. The assay of fibrinolysis, which may also be im-
portant, has receivedi scanty treatrnent. The relevant studies are
listed in table A27. Many of these are discussed in, the 1968 sup-
plement (192) and by Murphy (140). Corroborative data are still
inconclusive as to whether smoking shortens platelet survival.
O^rBiERI AREAS OF, INVESTIGATION
Certain other aspects of cardiovascular pathophysiolbgy may be
of importance in the relationship of smoking to CHD1. Glucose me-
tabolism andi insulin response, when altered, may alter myocardial
response. This topic has been covered in detail ini the 1968 Supple-
ment to the Health Consequences of Smoking (192)1. Also, varia,
tions in blood hemoglobin and hematocrit may adversely affect
coronary'blood fibw., A number of studies showing a possible r~el'a-tionsHip~ of smoking to
hemoconcentration havebeeni reviewed pre-
viously (191, 192)', and the reader is referred to those discussions.
CEREBROVASCULAR' DIS'EASE'
The terrn cerebrovascular disease (CVD)i refers to a number of
d'ifferent types of vascular lesions affecting the central nervous
system : subarachnoid hemorrhage, cerebral hemorrhage, cerebrall
embolism, and thrombosis (ICD Codes 330 to 334}. In 1967 in the
United States, a, total of 93,071 males and 1109,113 females were
listed as dying from CVD' as the underlying cause (196).
Epidemiologiieal' studies indicate that cigarette smoking is asso-

ciatedl with increased mortality from cerebrovascular disease;
whetlherCVD~is~ listed as the underlyiingorasa,contributorycause
of death. Table 28 presents the resul'ts of the seven, major epidemi-
olbgical' studies. The smoking, of pipes and cigars does not appearr
to increase significantly the risk of dying from CVD. The impor-
tance of high blood pressure and diabetes as risk factors for rnor-
tali'ty from C'UDhasrecentlybeen notedbyfiammond and Gar-finkel (TB) . The datai from their study,
as presented in table 28,
also indicate that the! mortaliityratilofor cigarett'esmokers is,
greater- for persons under, 75 years of age than for older
individuals:
Many of' the pathophysiological considerations discussed ini the
sections concerning CHD may also pertain, to the relationship of
smoking and CVD„ particularly cerebral infarction.
In a study reported by Kuhn (1'23), 20 habitual smokers re-
frained from smoking, for one-half day, and! base line retrograde
brachiocerebral angiograms were taken ; they then smoked one
cigarette, inhaling deeply, and had repeat angiograms. Those over.
60 years of age failed to have significant acceleration of flow as
demonstrated in carbon dioxide inhalation experiments.
More recently, Miyazaki (132) studied the effect of smoking
on the cerebral circulation of '12'moderate/ heavy cigarette smokers
as measured indirectly using an~ ultrasonic Doppler technique to
record internall carotid artery flbav. Measurements were made be-
fore and after ordinary smoking and showed an increase in cere-
bral blood flow, and a decrease in cerebral vascular resistance in
all subjects. Nlosignificantdiifference inresponse wa& observed
between the 4 younger and 8 old'er (over 60 years of'age) subjects.
1Tore research is needed to clarify the role of cigarette smoking
in~ the acute pathogenesis of CVD manifestations. However, the
chronic effect of smoking upon~ the cerebral circulatibni (particu-
larly its extracranial portion) is likely to be similar to the effect
of smoking upon the aortic and coronary atherosclerosis.
NION-SYPHILITIC AORTIC ANEURYSM
Aortic aneurysm is an uncommon but not rare cause of death~.
In 119!67 in the United States, a totall of 8;448'rnen and 3,173 women
were listed as dying from aortic aneurysm as the underlying cause
(196). Cigarette smoking appears to increase the risk of dying
frorn, this disease, perhaps by promoting, the atherosclerotic proc-
ess which underlies this type of aneurysm. As illustrated in table
29, the mortality ratios for cigarette smokers are high relative to
other cardiovascular diseases in which smoking increases the risk,
andl the risk increases in proportion to the amount smoked.

PERIPHERAL A~RTE'~RI(JSCZER'OSZiS~
Peripheral arteriosclero5is represents the effects on the vascu-
lature of the extremities of the pathophysiologic processes which
produce coronary and aortie atherosclerosis. A number of studies
have been concerned with smoking, as a risk factor in the develop-
ment of:thisdisease: Kannel, et al. (95) observed, in the Framing-
ham study„ that diabetes mellitus and elevated serum cholesterol;
as well as cigarette smoking, were also risk factors in the develop-
ment of' peripherali vascular disease.
JuergQns, et al. (92) reviewed the records of and contacted 478'
male patients with arteriosclerosis obliterans (a severe form off
peripheral art'eriosclerosis),, who had' been patients at the PNI'ayo
Clinic between 1939 and 1948. The diagnosis of this condition was
based upon certain clinical criteria : the presence of' intermittent
claudication„ the marked diminution or absence of' lower extremity
arterial pulsations, and objective trophic manifestations of per-
ipheral limb ischemia. Smoking information was available on 401
patients. These patients were compared with a control group of'
350 Mayo Clinic patients of similar age who showed' no clhnical'
evidence of' vascular disease. It was found, flor, males under the
age of' 60, that 2.5 percent of the cases and' 25 percent of the con-
trols were nonsmokers. However, no difference was noted bet'weeni
the percentages of heavy smokers in eachi group. The authors also
implicated high blood pressure andl elevated serum cholesterol as
risk factors in the occurrence of this disease.
Begg (19) noted'similar findings in a studly of 294 male patients
withi intermittent claudication who were patients at the Western
Infirmary in Glasgow, Scotlandl. In comparing the smoking his-
tories of 100 patients with this complaint withi those of 11fa'healt'hy
male controls, the author found that 1I percent of the patients and'
21 percent of the controls had never smoked. A total' of 42 percent
of the patients smoked' more than 20 cigarettes per day while only
24 percent of the controls had a similar history of heavy smoking.
The author concluded that smoking, while not a prime cause of'
peripheral arterial disease, is a significant cofact'or in its d'evelep-
ment in almost all' cases. The author also noted obesity, high blood
pressure, and elevated serum cholesterol as risk factors.
Schwartz, et al. (168), compared the prevalence of risk factors
in four groups of'subj'ects : 141 cases withi arteriosclerotic diseasee
of the lower limbs, 551 cases with coronary arteriosclerosis, 58
cases with both conditions, and finally an indefinite nurnber of
controli individuals who had been hospitalized for injuries. The in-
vestigators reported that certain risk factors, including hyper-
cholesterolemia, hypertension, and cigarette smoking, were signifi-
T2'

~:rnt irz hot!h coronary and lower limb arteriosclerosis. The authors
that th~einhalati~on ofciigarette smoke appeared to be anInil)nrtant risk factor for coronary
arteriosclerosis up to age 55
;; in arteriosclerosis of thel~owerextremities„ inhalationap-
awarecll to increase the risk even in the older age groups.
«'idmer, et al. (213) compared 277 male patients with arteriall
ecrlu-sioni of the limbs as demonstrated by aortography or oscillog-
ral)h' v N~•ith 2;082 men demonstrated by oscillography to be free of
~rteri:rl disease. The authors foundl that cigarette smoking, parti
cu!arla- heavy smoking, was significantly more frequent among the
ca<es witharteri~a1 occlusion than among, thecontlrols, Increased
~,rta-lipoproteins and systolic hypertension were also found to be
ni„re common among the cases.
EXPERIMENTAL EVIDENCE
i;
®
_\ number of' experimenters have investigated the acute effects
,,f -~nloking, or nicotine upon the peripheral circu~latorysystem.
11hc-;e investigators, as listed in table A30, have measured effects
n terms of alterations in skin temperature and blood flow as meas-
.1:•ed by plethysmography, radioactive i'odinated albumin cliear-
; nce, or radiosodium clearance from the skin. The majority of
ire<e studies have shown significant decreases in peripherall blood
,i(nv and skin temperat'ureupon smoking, particularly in persons.
«-irhout manifest peripheral vascular disease. The study of Freund
and W'atid (68)' demonstrates the dlifferenee: in peripheral vascular
reactivity found between normals and patients with arterioscle-
rotic changes in the vessels of their extremities. The work of.
Str6rnbldd (181) on blockade of this response with automatic sys-
tem blockers indieates that the reactivity of these vessels is sec-
ondary to the local release of catecholamines. M'ost probably, the
degenerative changes associated with this disease create a stiffen-
ing of the vessel wall andl prevent rapid alteration, particularly
dilatations inres~ponse tothecatech~olamine& liberated by smoking
or nicotine:
THROMBOAIrTGIITI& OBLITERANS
Thromboangiitis obliterans (Buerger's Di'sease)' (TAO)~ is an
uncommon obstructive vasculitis primarily involving the arteries
and veins of the extremities. Severely affected patients may even
lose their limbs secondary to ischernic changes. Much discussion
has centered uponi the question as to whether this disease is a clin-
ical and pathological entity separate from peripheral arterioscle-
rosis. McKusick, et al. (128) consider it to be a distinct entity
73

while Eisen (5T), concludes that TAO1 is the acute .infifammatory
phase of severe arteriosclerosi's..
Clinically, it has been shown that smoking aggravates this dis-
ease andi cessation of smoking frequently aids in complete or par-
tial' remission. Razdan, et al. (153) and' Brown, et a1L (32) found
very few nonsmokers in groups of patients diagnosed as having
t'ypicali TAO. A recent study from Israel (16) involved a case-
control comparison of 46' patients with TAO and 32' matched con-
trols: Although the controls were found to, smoke less per day than
the patients, this difference was not found to, be statistically sig-
nificant. However, 100 percent of the smoking patients and only
72'percent of the smoking controls were inhalers, a difference sig-
nificant at the 0:02' 1'eve1L
CARDIOVASCUI.AR DISEASES
SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS
CORONARY HEART DISEASE
li. Data from numerous prospective and retrospective studies
confirm the judgment that cigarette smoking is a significant risk
factor contributing to the dlevelopnnent of coronary heart disease
including fatal' CHD and its most severe expression„ sudden and'
unexpected death.~ The risk of~ CHD~~ incurred by~ smokers~ of~ pipes~
and cigars is appreciably less thani that by cigarette smokers.
2'. Analysis of other factors associated with CHD (highi serum
cholesterol, high blood pressure, andi physicall inactivit'y) shows
that cigarette smoking operates independently of'these other fac-
tors and can~ act jointly with certain of'them to increase the risk
of CHD1 appreciab]y..
3. There is evidence that cigarette smoking may accelerate the
pathophysiological changes of pre-existing coronary heart disease
andi therefore contributes to sudden death from CHD.
4. Autopsy studies suggest that cigarette smoking is associated
with a significant increase in atherosclerosis of the aorta, and coro-
nary arteries.
5. The cessation of smoking is associated witlii a decreased risk
of death from CHD:.
6. Experimental studies ini aniimals and humans suggest thatt
cigarette smoking may contribute to the development of'CHiD and%
or its manifestations by one or more of the following mechanisms :
a. Cigarette smoking, by contributing to the release of catechol-
amines, causes increased myocardial wa11i tension, contraction

0
and heart rate, and thereby increases the work of the
:io;Ert and themyoeardial demand for oxygen and other'.'`1'1'llE llt5.

Comments
Coronary artery ligation increased the frequency
of nicotine-induced severe arrhythmias; these
became less evident with increasing time since
ligation.
Isolated atrial specimen showed increased rate and
increased amplitude of contractions with admin-
istration of nicotine proportional to pretreat-
ment. These reactions were blocked by reserpine,
- -
and the authors consider nicotine effects to be
mediated by catecholamine release from chro-
_ - -
maffin store in myocardium.
I. Myocardial contractility increased 40-90 per-
cent in 15/15 animals tested accompanied by
ST segment depression and T-wave inversion
and blocked by tetraethylammonium chloride.
II. Coronary blood flow increased 19 percent upon
left circumflex artery injection; coronary blood
flow showed no change upon left anterior de-
scending artery injection, 64 observations on
10 dogs.
(Tetraethylammonium chloride blocked CBF in-
crease.)
The authors found no evidence of coronary vaso-
constriction in these healthy animals.

Comments
No significant change in either left ventricular
work or myocacdial oxygen extraction.
Effects of cigarette smoke were duplicated by in-
travenous nicotine and epinephrine.
During cigarette smoke inhalation, it was noted
that without blood pressure or output changes,
coronary blood flow did not increase and that
while adverse EKG changes were noted they cor-
related more closely with decreased cardiac oxy-
gen utilization than with actual cardiac work.
Nicotine-induced coronary blood flow and heart
rate increase in the atherosclerotic animals re-
quired 10 times and 2 times, respectively, the
amounts required in the normal animals.

Over 5 µg. of nicotine was found to produce an initial bradycardia asso-
ciated with increased coronary flow, followed by prolonged tachycardia
with an initial decrease in coronary blood flow followed by a prolonged
increase. Pretreatment with hexamethonium or reserpine prevented both
the myocardial stimulation and the increase in coronary blood flow. The

These and nicotine-induced arrhythmias were of a short duration.
Nicotine perfusion produced:
(1) An inereas: in myocardial contractile force apparently independent
of adrenergic innervation. _ -
(2) An increased automaticity of the Purkinje fiber system apparently
due to release ofcatecholamines from chromaffin tissue stores.
(3) A decrease in conduction velocity.
The authors conclude that the latter two effects probably predispose to ar-
rhythmia formation.

The concomitant increase

the importance of nico-

atherogenie stimulus.

INTRODUCTION
i
Chronic obstructive bronchopulmonary disease (COPD) is char-
acterized by chronic obstruction to airflow within the lungs: The
term COPD refers to three common respiratory ailment's ; narnely„
chronic bronchitis, pulmonary emphysema, andl reversible obstruc-
tive lung disease (bronchial asthrna).*
Chronic bronchitis has been defined as the chronic or recurrent
excessive mucus secretion of the bronchial tree:It is characterizedl
by cough withi the production of sputumi on most days for at least
three months in the year during at least two consecutive years
(217).
Pulmonary emphysema is that anatomically definedl condition of'
the i:ung characterized by an abnormal, permanent increase in the
size of the distal air spaces (beyond the terminal bronchiole) ac-
companied by destructive changes (217).
Patients can suffer from both of these conditions simultaneously.
The symptoms as welll as the abnormalities in pulhnenary function
observed in the presence of the two ailments may be quite sirnil:ar.P'atients with
chroni'cbronchitis suffer from productive cough withh
or, without dyspnea (breathlessness both at rest or on exertion)
while pulmonaryernphysema i~& charaeterizedl mainPybydyspnea.COPD comprises a spectrum of clinical
manifestations; thus, it is
frequently difficult to determine whether a particular patient is
suffering fromi one of the two specified diseases alone or which one
predominates when both are thought to be present.
COPD is responsible for significant mortality in the United
States. In 1967, a total of 21,507 men and 3,885: women were re-
corded as dying from chronic bronchitis and emphysema (2;21)1.
This figure does not include a sizable number of individuals for
whom COPD was a contributory cause of death.
During, the past two decades; a major increase has taken place
in the mortality from COPD in the Unitied~ States: In 1949, the
death rate from COPD was 2.1 per 100;000 resident population,
while in 11960 it was 6:0 (222), and in 11967, 12'.9' (221)i. Although

much of this rise is probably due to changes in certification andi
recording methods as wel,ll as to an increased interest on the part
of the medical community, an appreciable proportion is also gen~-
eralIy accepted as reflecting a reall increase ini disease. Similar in,-
creases over the past 20 to 30 years have also beeni observed in
Canada (7) andi in Ilsrael (54). The lack of a similar increase in
Great Britain, a country withi an extremely high rate of' COPD,
may be the result of a number of factors including improved
therapy and decreased air pollution. Moreover, it is also likely that
the dhagnosils of COPD has been made more commonly and ac-
curately in Great Britain for a longer time than in the United
States, or elsewhere. Furthermore, the British definitions of bron-
chitis and emphysema have differed in the past' from those used in
the United States.
The mortality from and prevalence of COPD is probably under-
estimated. Ini a study of death certificates, Moriyama, et al. (170))
reported that COPD' is often omitlted, as ai contributing cause of'
death. In a study of more thani 35f/' autopsies, Mitchell, et al. (169)
noted that the disease often goes unreported and that emphysema
was occasionally found unassociated with severe clinical airway
obstruction. Hepper, et a1. (110) observed that ventilatory test re-
sults were abnormal in 10 percent of 714 patients ini whom no
symptoms, signs, or past history of pulmonary disease were noted.
They concluded that severe degrees of vent'ilatory impairment may
be undetectled' by history and physical examination albne. Boushy,
et al. (40) 1 evaluated clinicali symptoms, physiologic measurements
of'airway obstruction, and morphologic bronchial and parenchymal'
changes in 90 males with bronchogenic carcinoma. The authors
found that when either clinical, physiologic, or pathologic evidenee
of COPD was used alone, one-third to one-fourth of the patients
were considered normal, but when all three criteria were used to-
gether, only one patient was free of COPD. The importance of
COPD' as a, contributing cause of mortality is now beginning to be
more fully recognizedL
Clinicians have long observed that the majority of'their patient's
suffering from CCPD were cigarette smokers (1, 150). Epidernib-
logical' studies have validlat'ed' this impression by indicating that
cigarette smokers are at ai much greater risk of developing or dying
from this disease and that the risk increases with increased dosage
of cigarette smoke;, reaching ini the smoker of two packs or more aa
day a level as high as 18 tiraies that of the nonsmokers (132) . The
salutary effectt of giving up smoking has also been borne out by
clinical observation and epidemiologicall studies.
In a number of studies, smokers were found to suffer, rmore fre-
quently than nonsmokers fromi pulmonary symptoms incltzding,
T 40'

cough, cougli, with production of phlegm; and! dyspnea. By a variety
of pulmonary function tests, smokers were shown, to have dimin-
ished function as compared to nonsmokers andl also to have a
steeper slope of the expected decline of'funct'ion with age. Tests of
ventilation/perfusion relationships in the lung have revealed ab-
normal function in smokers. Autopsy studies have indicat'ed' that
smokers dying of' causes ot'her, tthan COPD have significantly more
changes characteristic of emphysema than nonsmokers.
Several recent studies have validated the clinical impression that
among patients who undergo surgery, cigarette smokers run, a
greater risk of developing compTications in the post-operative
period than nonsmokers.
Abundant experimental evidence of the role of' smoking inn
bronchopulmonary disease has been obtained from experiments
employing aniinals and tissue ar_d cell cultures. Recent work has
demonstrateds ini dogs trained to inhale cigarette smoke through a
tracheostoma, that emphysernas pulmonary fibrosis, and other path-
ologic changes in the pulmonary parenchyma and bronchi developp
and that these changes are proportional to the totali dosage of cig-
arette: smokeinhaledlIn vivo and in, vitrostudies, have shown that
whole cigarette smoke, or certain fractions thereof, inhibit ciliary
activity of the bronchial epithelium, adversely affect the mucous
sheath, and inhibit the phagocytic activity of the pulmonary
alveolar macrophage. These abnormalities lead to retarded clear-
ance of' inhaled, foreign matter including~ infectious agents from
the lungs,, thus predisposing the individual to respiratory infec-
tions. Evidence also exists that pulmonary surfactant may be ad-
versely affected by cigirette smoke.
The convergence of these lines of evidence, which will be de~
scribed in more detail in the body of this chapter, leads to the
judgment that cigarette smoking is the most important cause of'
COPD in man.

the findings for chronic bronchitis andl emphysema. Such specific
grouping, of the mortality: data should be viewed' with some reser=
vations in the light of the difficulties mentioned above in dis,
tinguishing the two diseases clinically..
The dbserelationship of increased mortality ratios with increased
consumption of eigarettes is indicated by the results of all the
studies whichi present rates for different levels of srnoking.Kahn
(132), for instance, noted that those smoking only 1 to 9 cigarettes
per day incurred an emphysema mortality ratio of 5.33e while those
srnoking over 39 per day incurred one of' 25.34. Pipe and cigar
smokers were found in some studies to have slightly elevated mor-
tality ratios in comparison with nonsmokers although other studies
did not show this., The risk of' dying from CbPD~ among cigar and
pipe smokers appears to be much less than that incurre& by
cigarette smokers but may be somewhat greater than that among
nonsmokers (table 1)~.
The effect of stopping smoking on COPD mortality is reflected in
thexesults,of Doll and Hill (70, 71)~ intheir st'ud'yof Eritishphysi-cians. They found that during
the years immediately follbwing
cessation of smoking, mortality ratios remained elevated and' didl
not begin~ to decline belbw the level of continuing smokers untit
nearly a decade later., This delay in response is probably due to two
factors : the presence in the ex-smokers' group of many who quit
for reasons of ill health and the long-term effects of cigarette
smoke on the respiratory tree„ some of which are irreversible.
Kahnl (132) also not'edl that the age-specific mortality ratios for
ex-smokers were lower than those: for continuing smokers of cor-
responding, amounts of' cigarettes.
A better estimate of the potential effect of st'opping smoking on.
COPD~ mortality cani be gained by studying the death rates in a
population in which a high proportion of smokers have stopped
smoking to protect their health rather than as a response to ill
health. Among, doctors age 35-64 in England and Wales, many of
whom, have stopped smoking cigarettes, there was a 24 percent
reduction in bronchitis mortality between 1I9'.53-57 and 1961-65;
as compared with a reduction of only 41 percent in all'i men of' the
same age in England and Wales,, among whom there was no redtiZc-
tion of cigarette smoking. (84) .
COPD, MORBIDITY
Many invest'igators have studiedl the prevalence of bronchopul-
monary symptoms (inclluding, those of chronic nonspecific respira-
tory disease) among smokers and nonsmokers. These studies are
outlined in table A2. Their results indicate that the cigarette

smoker is much more likely to suffer from respiratory symptoms
such as cough, sputum production, andl dyspnea than is the non-
smoker. Such symptoms; particularly cough and sputum produc-
tion, increase with increasing dosage of cigarette smoke. Table A2
also shows that pipe and cigar smokers experience COPD symptoms
more frequently than nonsmokers: not to the degree found
ini cigarette smokers. These morbidity findings are similar to the
mortality findings presented above.
Similarly, cessation of cigarette smoking has been shown to be
associated' with a decrease in symptom prevalence. Mitchell, et al.
(168), studied 60 patients who succeeded in stopping smoking andl
84 continuing smokers, Among the ex-smokers, more than 70 per-
cent reported improvement in their cough while lessthan 5 percent
of the continuing smokers dU so. Wynder,, et ali, (237)1 followed
224 ex-smokers of cigarettes and noted, that 77 percent reported
cessation of persistent eoughi and an additionali 17 percent reportedd
definite improvement. Hammond (102) reported similar results
concerning cough and shortness of breath in a study of a large
group: of ex-smokers,
VEI+ITII:ATORY FUNCTION
Another type of' quantification of the effects of smoking on the
bronchopulmonary system has beeni obtained by those groups of
investigators who have, studied pulmonary function in various
groups. Results are presented ini table A3, and a glossary of the
terms usedl in the various t'est's: is presented in tablle A4. The pa,
ram.eters investigatledl have included maximal breathing, capacity
(maximal voluntary venti]ation), expiratory: flow ratles,, forced
expi'rat'oryvolume,and vital capacity. Although eert:ainofthese
parameters appear to be more sensitive measures of pulmonary
dysfunction than: otliers,the, overwhelming, majority of these stud-
ies have shown d'irni¢zished'functioniamong smokers. An increase inn
the expectledl age-d2minutioni rate in smokers has been observed in
those, studies which employed either repeated examinations or
examinations at many different age levels. Higgins, et al. (11'7))
conducted a nine-year follow-up examination of 385 male residents
of a British ind'ustrial town who were age 55-64 at the beginning
of the study. Among the survivors who were tested initially and
nine years later, the average decline in FEV,; ; was smallest in non-
smokers, slightly greater in ex-smokers, and greatest in~ smokers.
As with COPD mortality and syrnptom prevalence„t'he impairmentt
of pulmonary function shows a dose-relationship with increasing
amounts of cigarettes smoked.

The data contained in table A3 provide two different kinds of
information. The majority of the studies were conducted on un-
selected populations„ which probably inclhdle a number of individ-
uals with clinically manifest COPD. Therefore,, these studies re-
flect the prevalence of COPD!-related dysfunction (as determinedi
by pulmonary function t'ests) in relation to smoking. However,
some studies of younger individuals have revealed that pulmonary
function tests are abnormal in clinically asymptomatic smokers.
Krumholz; et al. (140) and Rankin, et al. (189), have shownithat
pulmonary diffusing, capacity is impaired' in young asymptomatic
smokers when compared with age-matchedi nonsmokers: Similar
impairment in other pulmonary function tests was noted by Peters
and Ferris (182, 183) in an asymptomatic colllege-age group and
by Zwi'„ et a1. (2'4,1), and Krumholz, et al. (140, 142) in groups of
y~-oung,asymptom.atic physicians and medical students.
Severat investigators have employed tests whiclii measure the
relationship of ventilation and perfusion (V/Q relationships)' i'nn
the various pulmonary segments. These tests are predicat'ed' on
observations, that some segments, oft'helung rnaybe relatively
under or overperfused' and that, likewise, segments may be underr
or overventilated. Anthon~isen; et a1.(10) investigated pul'monary:
function iin10,malesmokerswithclinicallymild chronic bronchi~~tis„
all of whom had smoked cigarettes for at least 20 years. Regionali
pulmonary functlioni was studied using radioactive xenon. Desp'ite
the fact that overall pulmonary function was nearly normali in sev-
eral patients,, all had depressed V/Q1 ratios in some lung regions
withi the basal areas, being those most commonly affected. The au-
thors suggested that significant disease in the peripheral airways
m<i1~~ exist in patients whose chronic bronchitis is clinically mild
and who show no present impairment of ventilatory capacity. The
radioactive xenon test may reveal severe compromise of local gas
exchange when usual studies of ventillatory capacity do not reveal'
any impairment. Similar results concerning, peripheral airway ob-
struction in bronchitic patients with normal, or only minimally in-
creasedl pulmonaryy resistance, have been observed by W'oolcock,
et al. (234). These authors also noted that their patients demon-
strated' frequency-dependent compliance which was unaffected by
the adhninistration of bronchodilator aerosols..
Striedier, et al., (;214)haverecentllyinvestilgatedi the meehanisrm,
of postural hypoxemia in 24 asymptomatic smokers and non-
srnokers. They found that standard ventilatory tests and lung vol.-
umes were normal in both the sirtoking and nonsmoking groups.
However, the arteriall pQ- Ineasured' ini the supine position was
significantly lower among the smokers and aliveolar-art'erial oxygen
gradients, whilebreathi~ngroomair, were larger inismokers thani in
1a7

nonsmokers (more so in, the supine than in the erect position). The
increase in alveolar-arterial 0, gradients was greater for heavy
than for light smokers. The authors concludedl that maldistributionn
of ventilation and perfusion accounted for the observed hypoxemia..
They also felt that this mild diffuse airway disease among asympto-
matic smokers is phy siologically significant mainly because of in-
volvement of small bronchi, as expressed' by maldistribution unac-
companied by gross airway obstruction. A similar ventilatory
distribution abnormality among smokers has also been observed'
by Ross, et al. (198) with the more severe alterations found in the
long-term smokers.
Although of' concern in the consideration of COPD, such dis-
turbances of the V/Q relationship may also have adverse effects
upon cardiac funct'iom depending upon the level of hypoxemia (219).
The discussion in the section on Coronary Heart Disease noted that
carbon monoxide has adverse effects on both oxygeni transport and
alveolar-arterial exchange as well' as oni oxygen debt developedi withh
exercise (50). Further research is needed oni the joint effect of thesee
pulftionary and carbon monoxide induced hypoxemic influences.
A number of other studies have provided further evidence con-
cerning the adverse effect of smoking on ventilatory funetion..
Table 5 presents those experiments which deali with the effect of
cessation of smoking on pulmonary function. Among the param-
eters whichi have been noted to improve after stopping srnoking,
are : diffusing capacity, compliance, resistance, maximal breathing,
eapacity, and forced expiratory volumes. These parameters showedd
improvement within 3 to 4 weeks after cessation of srnoking.
C'.,ENETI C FACTORS
Recent interest has been shown in the possible contribution of
genetic factors to the pathogenesis of COPD. Earlier studies (127;
147) had noted, the existence of kindreds with high incidences of
ehronic~ bronchitis, emphysema, or both diseases. Inadd'it'ionto thepresence of genetic
susceptibility„Larson, et al. (147) also observed
that all but one of the 11 symptomatic individuals in their two
kindreds were smokers. They postulated that the susceptibility of
some smokers to develop emphysema may be, at least partiall'y,
genetically detemined.
More recently; Larson, et al. (148) studied 156'relativesof COPD
patients and! 86' control individuals. The subjects underwent pul-
rnonary function testing, including forced expiratory volume and
residual volume/total lung capacity measurements. The authors
observed that' pulmonary function abnormalities were most prew
alent among the relatives who smoked and least prevalent among

the nonsmoking controls. No ~ relationship of this increased preva-
lence could be d'emonstrated to alphal-ant'itrypsirr deficiency (see
below). In addition, nonsmoking relatives and smoking controls
were observed to show approximately the same prevalence of ab-
normalities, However, due to the large proportion of females in the
nonsmoking relative group and to the clustering of two-thirds of
the affected relatives in~ 110 famslies;, firm conclusions cannot at
present be drawn from this study concerning the reiatlive contribu-
tions of smoking and of'heredity to the pathogenesis of COPD..
In order to determine the relative significance of smoking and
heredity in the pathogenesisof COPD; Cederlof, et al. (45, .4:6)~ have
used the twin-study methods on registries in both Sweden andl the
USA. The specific details of this method are described in the sec-
tion on Coronary Heart D'isease:, As may be noted from a summary
of their work at the end of table A2, the authors compared' the
symptom prevalence among monozygotic and dizygotic twins who
were both discordant and concordant for smoking habits. They
observed: that the hypermorbidity for COPD symptoms related to
smoking persisted even after controlling for zygosity~~ and concluded
t'hata causal relationship of smoking and COP'D symptoms was sup-
ported. However, genet'ic factors were still flound, to have an appre-
ciable influence. Lundmann (159): has applied this method t& the
study of pulmonary functiom He studiedl 37 monozygotic and 62
dizygotic twin pairs, measuring forced expiratory volumes and
nitrogen washout' gradients, and matched the various pairs for
smoking di'scordancy. He observed that both of these parameters
were adverselyaffected in twins who smoked andithat these changes
were correlated with cigarette consumption. The results are out-
lined at the end of table A3.
All'pha,ctntztrypsin (E1,r1T)-Ofmore recent note and discus-sion has been the discovery of an
association between a hereditary
predisposition to: COPD and the relative or absolute absence of
adphat-antitrypsin, al serum glycoprotein enzyme. EYiksson (78)'
was the first investigator to observe al relationship between the
presence of markedly decreased serum trypsin inhibitory capacity
andl panlobularr emphysema. Since Eriksson's paper, much ad.d.edl
research has been published concerning many facets of this intrigu~-
ing area,
It appears that A,AT deficiency is inherited as an autosomal
recessive: trait (78,, 216) although Kueppers 0 43) considers the
transmission to be by an~ autosomad codominant allele. It has been
estimated that up to 51 percent of the general population may be
heterozygous for this gene (154) although full cross-sectional
studies of the population remain to be d'one.
Homozygous or severe deficiencyy of this enzyme has been, asso-
150

ciated with a particular type of pulmonary emphysema. While the
majority of llungs of emphysematous patients reveal bullous or
centrilbbular deformities, particularly of the upper lobes, this
hereditary disorder reveals a panacinar change, most severe in the
lower lobes (101, 215s~ 226)1. Pat'ientswithemphysemawho, arefound' to have the homozygous
deficiency have beeni observed to
include a greater percentage of female patients than is usuadly ob.
served! in the general, emphysema population. Their disease begins
earlier, is more severe, is characterized' by dyspnea rather than
cough, and frequently is unassociated with a history of pr.eceding
bronchitis (101, 215, 226) . Radiographic studies of A,AT-deficient
patients have revealed decreased vascularization of the lower lobes
and increased vascularization of the upper lobes (101, 213)1. It is
est'imated that between l and 2 percent of patients with COPD have
this homozygous deficiency (78, 216)'. In family studies, it has been
found that almost all the homozygous individuals are symptomatic
by the age of40 and!that those who are not usually show alterations
in pulmonary function studies: GiZenter, et al. (98) studied 7 per-
sonswi'th, homozygous deficiency. 0fthe five symptomaticindiviid-
uals, 4 smoked and all had! abnormal timed vital capacity. Neither
of the two asymptomatic individuals smoked or had, this change in
vital capacity. All 7, however, were noted' to be hypoxemic at rest
and to have decreased'pulhnonary diffusing capacity.
It has been suggested (154) that the lack of this proteinase in-
hibitor in the serum of homozygous patients predisposes them to
emphysema in the following manner: Leukocytes present in the
blood containi significant amounts of proteinase enzymes as part of
the overall defense mechanism against' infection ; the breakdown of
these celds during acute infection releases proteinases into the pul-
monary tissues and'these, without the presence of a normal inhib-
itor, may contribute to the breakdown of the structural proteins of
lung tissue.
Heterozygous individuals have beeni defined as those who show
levels of A,AT intermediate between those of normals and those.
with homozygous deficiency. At the present time, there is much
debate about whether or not heterozygotes for. A,AT are at a
greater risk of developing COPD than are A,AT normals. A major
dYfficultly is the lack of ai precise definition of heterozygosity. At
present, the best method' for the determination of the level of A,AT
appears to be that of crossed serum immunoelectrophoresis be-
cause levels of trypsin inhibitory capacity (TIC) have been shown
to rise acutely with infections.
Welch, et al. (226) feeli that heterozygotes do not show an in-
creased susceptibility to COPD. The heterozygotes which they
studied showed symptoms of bronchitis and did not present the

lower lobe perfusion defects frequentl'y noted in homozygotes. They
also found no difference in the number of COP'D, patients among the
heterozygotic and the general population. Other investigators, no-
tably Lieberman, et al. (154, 155), Kueppers, et al. (1k0, and
Larson,, et al. (148) found significantly increased percentages of
COPD patients among those with heterozygous deficiency as com-
pared' with the general population. Lieberman, et al. (1'55), ob-
served that the percentage of heterozyg6tes among a groupi of
healthy industrial workers was 4.7 percent while that among aa
group of patients wit'h emphysema was 18.1 percent. Ini ai recent
review, Falk and B'riscoe (79) considered that the available evi-
dence points to an increasedi prevalence of COPD among hetero-
zygotes.
Of more central interest to, this dh'scussions however, is the pos-
sible relationship of srnoking to the predisposition of disease among
the heterozygote population. Kueppers;, et al. (144), studied three
populations:: younger controls, older controls, and a group~ of
COPD1 patients. They observed' that of the 25 heterozygotes with
COPD, only: 2 were over 70 years of age,, both were female and non-
smokers. The remaining 23 were cigarette smolters: Nevertheless;
studies which adequately sort out the factors of genetic susceptibil-
ity and cigarette smoke exposure have yet to be: reported.
An important question is to what extent the relationship bet'weeni
smoking and COPD is influencedl by identifiable genetic factors. Att
present, it is possible to identify what appears to be only a very
sma11 group of suscept'ibies for whom genetic factors may be.para-
mount in the pathogenesis of t'heirailrnent. Of greater public healthh
import is whether lesser degrees of genetically identifiable: suscep-
tibility interact with cigarette smoking to account for a significant
proportion of'the problem.
AIR' POLLUTION
Numerous epid.emiologicali studies have been condu.cted in order
to examine the effect of air pollutioni on human nonneoplastic res-
piratory disease. Three major types of studies have been utiilized~::
observation of the mortality and morbidity due to an acute episode
of increased air pollution, observation of the day-to-day variationn
in mortality and its relation to air pollution levels, and geographical
comparisons. The majority of'stud2es falli into, the third'.,
category,
and' these are detailed in table A6.
A number of'studies did't not show an association among air pol-
lution; respiratorysymptoms; and pulmonary dysfunction (81, 20I):
More recent studies which evaluated the factors of smoking, sociali
class, and air pollution separately noted a greater prevalence of
752

t
COPD symptoms, pulhnonary dlysf'unctiony, and COPD mortality
in areas of high pollutlioni (12, 122, 146, 233). Lambert and Reid
(146) observed that inthe absence of cigarette smoking the corre-
lation between COPD symptoms and air pollution was slight and
suggested that the two factors may interact to produce higher rates
of disease:
The evidence which has accumulated ini the past 7 years gives
further support to the conclusion of the Surgeon General's Ad-
visory Committee on Smoking and Health as stated in its 1964 Re-
port that :"For the bulk of the population of' the United States, the
relative importance of cigarette smoking as a cause of chronic
br.onchopulmonary disease is much greater than, atmospheric pol-
lution or occupationall exposures,"
OCCUPATIONAL HAZARDS
Exposure to various dusty occupational environments has been
shown in many studies to be associated with the development of
various forms of nonneoplastic lung disease. Lowe (158), in a re-
view of the relationship of occupationall exposure and chronic
bronchitis, noted that among workers exposed to dust significant
increases in COPD: mortality were observed. These occupations
included coal mining; tinning, galvanizing, riveting, and caulkin:g.Commenting on a previously
unreported study of more than 20;000
steel wor ers, he observed that the relati'onshipbetween mean dust
exposure levels and COPD prevalence was much stronger among
smokers than among, nonsmokers.
More recently,, Bouhuys and Peters (37) reviewed those specific
industrial exposures related tolung, disease. COPD was found to be
associated with exposure to coal dust, asbestos, bagasse dust, iso-
cyanates, various irritant gases, and' textile dusts (cotton, flax, or
hemp ) .
Studies which have investigated the interrelationship between
smoking, industrial exposure„and COPD are listed in~t'able A7. Ad-
ditional compounds, not listed in the table, but which also appear to
be related to CQPD,are chlorine (49)~ andl washing powder dust
(97). Cigarette smoking and harmful' dust exposures appear to act
in a combined manner in the production of COPD.
Although an increased prevalence of COPD is found with cer-
tain occupational exposures, in none is the relationship as strong,
as that between COPD and cigarette smoking. To demonstrate ann
increased occupational risk„ careful analysis of' smoking habits is
required. The relative importance of' cigarette smoking appears to
be much greater than occupational exposure as an etiologic factor
in COPD.

Cccdmiumr-Chronic industrial exposure to cadmium in man has
been found to induce pulmonary emphysema without significant
accompanying chronic~ bronchitis (34, 35, 210).
Nandi, et al. (1'2'7) recently investigatedl the contri'bution of the
cadmiumi in cigarette smoke to: the pathogenesis of emphysema.
AnalyZing whole cigarettes,, ash, and filters, they found that ann
average of 69 percent of the cadhnium present in the cigarette (ap-
proximately 116' micrograms/20~ cigaret'tes) is inhaled in the smoke.
1ni a related study (153), these: investigators showed that the.level
of cadmium in wat'sr-sol'uble liver protein on autopsy was three,
times greater in those pati'ents with:a history of chronic bronchitisi
emphysema than that found in those without such a history.. LTn-
fortunat'eiy; no smoking, histories were available.
PATHOLOGICAL STUDIES
The relationship between smoking habits andl pathological
changes in the bronchial tree and pulmonary parenchyma has been
investigatedl by several groups of workers. Nletaplastic changes,
although found in nonsmokers,, are much more common in smokers
(table 10; Cancer Chapter), and a dose-relationship of increasing
metaplasia with increased smoking has been evident in many of the
studies.
Patholbgical studies whachdeal: prim:arilywith pulmonary
parenchymal and non-rnetaplastic bronchial changes are presented
ini table 8. Goblet cell distention, alveolar septal rupture, thickened
bronchial epitheliums and mucous gland hypertrophy have been
found to be more frequent ini smokers than in nonsmokers. Auer-
bach,, et al. (17) noted a dose-response relationship betweeni the
amount of smoking andl the degree of septal rupture..
Anderson, et al. (4, 5) st'ud,ied the difference in the type of
emphysema shown by smok:ers,and nonsmokers. In their study,:
listed in table 8, they noted that the group of' patients with panlobu-
l'ar emphysema was comprised of equal numbers of' smokers and
nonsmokers while of patients with centriilobular emphysema,, 98
percent~ were smokers. More recently,, the same authors studied
Iung, macrosections fromi 80 nonsmokers. While rnost were normal~.
24 demonstrat'edi parenchymal dilatationi and disruptioni consistent
with panlbbular emphyserna. Thurlbeck„ et al. (217) have alsa ob,
served that centrilobular emphysema rarely occurs in, nonsmokers..

EXPERIMENTAL STUDIES
A'NIM2AL , StUDIE3~~
A number of investigators have studied the effect of the inhala-
tion of cigarette smoke on the macroscopic and' microscopic strue-
ture of the tracheobronchiall tree and pulmonary parenchyma of
animals. Studie& dealing with metaplasi& an:dd cellular atypism of
the trachea and bronchi are! lnsted, in tableA16' of'theeancer chapr ter. Studies,
moredirectliyconcernedwith the~ pathology of' CO~P'D'
are listed in table 9'. They show that cigarette smoke exposure is
associated with changes similar to those found in humans with
CdPD, i.e., bronchitis, parenchymal disruptions alveolar septa]
rupture, alveolar space dYlatation, and'the 1ossof cili& and' eiliated
cells in,the bronchial' mucosa.
The investigations of'Auerbach and his coworkers (15, 16, 88)
have demonstrated by the use of both light and: electron microscopy
that dogs who inhale cigarette smoke through tracheostomas de-
velop progressively more severe lesions of the bronchi and paren-
chyrna with increased exposure to cigarette smoke. In electron
microscopic studies of specimens taken from the lungs of dogs thus.
exposed to cigarette smoke, the following, changes were observed':
In 5 dog& sacrificed after on]y 44days, of smoking exposure, there
was a proliferation of goblet cells as, well as, a partiallossof'cili'al in the lining cells, and in
5 dogs sacrifieed' after 420 days or more of
exposure, the number of cell layers in the bronchial epithelium~ was
found to be twice that of the nonsmoking dogs. Goblet cells and
ciliated columnar cells were no longer present ;~ instead, the s~urfacewas lined with columnar
andicuboidal cells with stubbyprojectionsy in~ place of cilia. Mitotic figures were
frequent'lyobservedi in the
basal cells. These findings may be relevant to carcinogenesis ass
weIlas~tothedevelopment of C~OPD,.
In, along-term experiment, carried, out by the same group; dogs
were exposed to varying doses of cigarette smoke. Details of thee
experimental procedure have been outlined in the section on Pul-
monary Carcinogenesis. The animals were separatedi into non-
smoker, filter-tip cigarette, nonfilter-light, andi nonfilter-heavy ex-
posure groups, The dogs were "smoked"' for 875 days, or approxi-
mately 29 months. The animals which died during the experiment
andi theanima]s sacrificed' aft`er, day 875 were• examanedfor pul-
monary parenchymal changes as well as for bronchial epitahelial'
alterations. As seen in figures 1 and 2„ dose-related pathological
changes, including fibrosis and' emphysema, were found' in the 1'ung
parenchyma of the exposed dogs. These changes were similar to
those seen in the lungs of'humans with COPD.

Aviado and coworkers have performed a series of experiments
on live aniirsals and in heart-lung, preparations to study the effect
of cigarette smoke on pulmonary physiology and structure ('18,,19,,
20; 21, 22, 179, 180, 199; 200, 201, 202). The authors observed'that
cigarette smoke causes acute bronchoconstriction both by the re-
lease of histamine and the stimulationi of parasympathetic nerve
pathways in the lung. Bronchial arterial injections of nicotine were
found to cause reactions similar to, those observed after cigarette
smoke inhalation. The bronchoconstriction was usually foll'owed by
bronchodilatationi which' the authors attributed to syrnpathetic
stimulation. As mentioned in the Chapter on Cardiovascular Dis-
eases;, nicotine has been shown to induce the release of catechola-
mines.
Experiments by Aviad'o and coworkers as' well as other authors
(66, 99) using guinea pigs showed that exposure to cigarette
smoke was associated with increased bronchopulmonary resistancee
and decreased pulmonary compliance. The authors related' these
changes to the bronchoconstriction of terminal ventilatory units.,
162

i
Similar experiments in dogs showed that the increase in resistance,
following either cigarette smoke exposure or intravenous nicotiinee
could be blocke& by pretreatment with atropine. As a parasympa-
thetic blocker,, atropine would decrease the acute bronchoconstric-
tive phase.
Most recently, Aviado and', his colleagues (20, 130) have at-
tlernptledto induce physiologic and~ anatomic changes similar to:
those found in the lungs of patients with: emphysema. They ex-
posed male rats to cigarette smoke„ the introduction of the enzyme.
papain, as well as to partial tracheall ligation. In 10 rats exposed
to cigarette smoketwieed'ailyfor 3'0minutesover a period' of1Q,
weeks, no changes in pulmonary compliance or, resistance were!
n, ited. Also, no abnorrnal histologicall changes were observed in the:
~~noup exposed only to cigarette smoke. However, animals who
underwent tracheal ligation as well as smoke exposure showed in-
c.reaacl numbers of enlarged air spaces and increased pulknonary
rt,,istance when, compared withi anirmals: who underwent only
tr:icheall ligation.

5 normal Young males. Prior smoking of a cigarettle in the subject's
normal manner was found to adversely affect the indices of d'is-

Finally;, Robertson, et al. (194) studiedl the effect of unfiltered
and' filtered cigarette smoke and cigar srnoke upon bronchial re-
activity in 19' of the most reactive persons in a group of 91, heavy
smokers. They observed that bronchial' reactivity was significantly
reducedby increasing the retention efficiency of the filter and that
reactivity to inhaled cigar tobacco was no less than that to cigarette
srnoke: They concluded that differences in inhalation account for
the difference in CO'1?D, prevalence observed between cigarette and'cigar smokers.
STUDIES CONCERNING hUL119.'ONA'RY CL'EARAIVCE'
Overall Clearance
The ability of'the lung to rid itself of inhaled particles that can-
not be easily exhaled& is dependent uponi al number of pfiysiol'ogic
mechanisms including ciliary activity, the mucous sheath, and the
pulmonary alveolar macrophage. Studies concerning the effect of
hurnan cigarette smoking and' the exposure of animals to cigarette
smoke on, this clearance system are presented in table A13. LaBelle,,
et al. (145) and. Bair and Dillley (23): observed! no change in clear-,
ance following the exposure of rat's;, rabbits, or dogs to cigarette
smoke. The latter authors noted, however, that normal clearance
rates obtained' prior to smoking were too low to reflect any sig-
nificant change except complete cessation.
Albert, etall (3)~ exposed donkeys tocilgarettesmoke via nas~al'
catheter and!observed impairment of clearance times. Holma (125)
obtained similar result's in rabbits.
In a related study, Albert, et al. (2) studied: the bronchiali clear=
ance times of 9' nonsmokers and 14' cigarette smokers in a total pop-
ulation of 36 subjects. The rates of'bronchial clearance were slower
on the average in the cigarette smokers~~ when compared with the
nonsmokers, al'thougha: wide variation was, present in each group.
In, relation to their study mentionedl above,, they also noted t'hat the:
shape of the whole lung clearance curves seen in smokers (with
markedly: prolonged 50, percent clearance times) was similar to that
developed' in the donkey following acute exposures to sulfur dioxide
or cigarette smoke.
Ciliary Fianction;.
Numerous experiments have shown that cigarette smoke or cer-
tain constituent's of cigarette smoke adversely affect and can even
bring about al cessation of ciliary activity in respiratory epithelium
in~ vivoand in vitro in culturesof' cilh''atedmicroorganisms. The! re-
sults of' a number of these experiments are presentedi ini table 12.

originate in tobacco smoke. The authors suggested that the tobacco,
'
smoke may have induced abnormalities in the mitochondria of the`~
macrophage. In a study of pultnonary macrophages harvested by{
endobronchial lavage from smokers andi nonsmokers, Pratt, et al.
,
(187) observed, that the macrophages of smokers contained an ab-
normal pigznent.
These studies indicate that the function of pulmonary cl'earance
carried on by the macrophage and ciliary systems is adversely af- '
fected by cigarette smoke.
STUDIES CONCERNING THE SURFA,CTANT SYSTEM
The surfactant system of'the lung,consists of various biologically
active compounds such as phospholipids and mucopolysaccharidess
which are present in the alveolar lining. N'ormaI pulmonary func-
tion ils influencedl and partly determinedl by the integrity of this
system (203). The purpose of the surfactant system is to main- !
tain the proper amount of surface tension in the alveoli so that the !
expansioni and contraction of the alveoli are facilitated. ~
Studies concerning the effect of cigarette smoke upon the sur- ~
faetant system and the surface tension of the pulmonary alveoli ',
are presented in table A14. Exposure of' rat and dog lung extracts
~
to cigarette smoke has been found to induce a notable decrease in
the maximal surface tension demonstrated by the extracts (94,
165,, 224). Cook and Webb (57) observed that surfactant activity
vv~asdilninished in smokersand in patientswithpulrnonarydisease~
when compared withhealthynonsmkers~
Scarpelli (203) in, a recent review, concludedl that the lowering
of maximal surface tension by cigarette smoke has been demon- ,
st'rated reasonably well. The relationship of these findings to the
pathogenesis of emphysema is unclear at this time.
OTHER RESPIRATORY D'ISOR'DERS
INFECTIOUS RESPIRATORY DISEASES'
!.
Several studies have examined the question of whether ciga-
rette smokers are at an increased risk of developing infectious res~-'
piratory and bronchopulmonary disease. Tab1e A15 presents a'.
summary of these studies. Lowe (1'57) observed an excess of
smokers among 705 tuberculosis patients, but Brown and Campbelll
(43), in a similar study found that the difference vwas not present
when the cases and controls were matched for alcohol intake. 1Vforee
recent studies have been concerned with the frequency of upper
respiratory infections among groups of smokers and nonsmokers.
A number of'investigators (108, 181, 1,83), have reportedi increased
172

rates of respiratory illnesses among smokers. Finklea, et al. (83)
studied a male college population (prospectively) during, the
1968-69 influenza epidemic. They found that smokers of all amounts
experienced more clinical illness than did nonsmokers and that thiss
relation wasdose-d'ependent, Similaxly,,smokers requiredlmore~bedl
rest than nonsmokers.
A survey conducted by: the National Center for Health Statistics
(220),, involving approximately134,000! persons,, showed that ma1eeigarette smokers reported 54
percent more cases of'acute bron.-
ehitis than males who had never smoked cigarettes, while female
smokers reported 74 percent more acute bronchitis than did females
who: had never smokedi, Male cigarette smokers report'ed 22' percent
more cases of infl'uenza than did males wholhad never smoked cigar-
ettes, while the fernale smokers reported an excess of 9 percent.Experi¢nental evidence in support
of this relationship has been
noted by Spurgash„ et al. (211). Miee were challenged with
Klebsiell'a pneumoriae or Diplococcus pneumoniae before or after
a single exposure to cigarette smoke. They observed that those ani-
mals exposed to smoke exhibited a decrease in resistance to respira-
tory infection, as shown~ by: an increase ! in mortality and a decrease
in survival time:, Preexposure to cigarette smoke was found to have
no significant effect on~ resistance of mie& to inflUenzai infectionn
initiated by aerosol exposure. However, exposure of' infected mice
to smoke resulted in signifi'cantly higher rnox^tality,, thus suggest-
ing that cigarette smoke can aggravate an existing respiratory
viral infection.
In the ligklt of the experimental evidence: presented above con-
cerning the effect of cigarette: smoke on pulmonary clearance,
phagocytosis; and' ciliary function, it seems reasonable to conclude
that such changes in tracheobronchial physiologic function woulldi
predispose: a person to: respiratory infections or aggravate already
existing ones.
Filrther evidence is derived froxn the work of Henry„et al. (109)
and Ehrlich, et al. (75),., These investigators exposed squirrel
monkeys to atmospheres containing; 10, and 5 p.pm. of nitrogen
dioxide. They observed that this& exposure increased the suscepti-
bility of the anianals to airborne Klebsiella pneumoniae as demon-
strated by increased mortality and reduced llang clearance of viable
bacteria~ Infectious challenge with influenza virus 24 hours before
exposure to 10 pLp.m., was fatali t& all monkeys vwithin three days.
Infected controls showed symptoms of viral infection but did not
succumb to the infection. The extent to which the various oxides of
nitrogen present in cigarette smoke contribute to the increased sus-
ceptibility to respiratory disease noted in smokers is presently
undefined.,
173:

POSTOPERATIVE COMPLICATIONS
Several studies have been published which examine the questions
of whether smokers runi an increased risk of developing postopera-
tive pulmonary complications over nonsmokers undergoing similar
operations.
11rIorton (173) reported' on a study of more than 1,100~ patient's
undergoing abdominal operations in which he found that cigarette
and mixed smokers were significantly more likely to develop bron-
chitis, bronchopneumonia,, or atelectasis during the postoperative
period than nonsmokers (table A16) .
Wiklander and, Norlnn (229) examined the incidence of post-
operative complications in 200 patient's undergoing laparotomy in
the winter months when it was expected that pulmonary compli-
cations would, be, at their maximum. These authors foundi no sig-
nificant differences between the frequency of complications in
smokers and' nonsmokers. No information about the definition of'
a smoker and no data on dosage of tobacco smoke were reported!,
P'iper ('188) observed the prevalence of postoperative pulmonary
complicationsini 150 patients undergoing laparot'omy. Ofthetota~lf sample, 66.7 percent developed
pulmonary complications during
the first postoperative week. All patients considered in the statis-
tical analysis as having pulmonary complications had radiographic
evidence of disease: Of the cigarette smokers, 73!5' percent' hadl
complications as compared to 55.5 percent of the nonsmokers.
When the smokers were divided according to dosage, heavy smok-
ers being those consuming more tliani 110 cigarettes per day for the
previous six months, 55 percent of light smokers and 88 percent
of heavy smokers were consideredl to have postoperative cornpli-
cations. Piper also, reported that stopping,smoking for up to four
days preoperatively had'no apparent effect on the incidence: of
compiications.
Wightman (228) reported on the ineid'ence of postoperative pul-
rnonary complications in 455 patients undergoing abdominal' oper-
ations and ini 330 patients undergoing other operations, Of the
cigarette smokers, 14.8' percent developed complications as com-
pared to 6.3 percent of the nonsmokers. The substantial difference
betweenithese figures and those of Piper (186) is due to the latter's
use of'radiographic criteria alone.. Wightlman utilized only cTinicall
criteria.
Morton (1'7z')has~recently reporti'edI astudyof' postoperative
hypoxemia i'n 10 patients, 5 of whom were cigarette smokers. Four
of the smokers had chron2c broncliitis., He found that the smokers
had a more.pronounced decrease in arterial oxygen saturation, per-
sistingintothe~ second' postoperative~ day (table A17)~..

In summary, tlie majority of' studies so far reported indicate
that cigarette smokers run a higher risk of developing postopera-
tiVe pulmonary complications than do nonsmokers, corroborating
a long-held clinical impression. The risk of' developing such cotn-
p?ications appears to increase withi increasing dosage of cigarette
smoke.
SUMMARY AND CONCll:USIONS'
1. Cigarette smoking i's the most important cause of chronic ob-
structive bronchopulknonary disease in the United States. Ciga-
ret't~e smoking increases the risk of dying from pulmonary emphy-
sema andl chronic bronchitis. Cigarette smokers show an increased
pre~-alence of respiratory symptoms, including cough, sputum pro-
(iuction, and breathlessness, when compared with nonsmokers.
Ventilatory function is decreased in smokers when compared with
nonsmokers.
'?: Cigarette smoking doesnot appear to be related to death from
bronchial asthma although it may increase the frequency and se-
verityof asthmatic attack~:sin patient'& already suffering from this
disease;
:;. The risk of developing or dying from COPD among pipe and/
or cigar smokers is probably higher than that among nonsmokers
~vhile clearly less than that among cigarette smokers:
-1. Ex-cigarette smokers have lower death rates from COPD
than do continuing smokers. The cessation of cigarette smoking
is associated with improvement in ventilatory function and withi
a, decrease in pulmonary symptom prevalence..
5. Young, relatively asymptomatic, cigarette smokers show
measurably altered ventilatory function when compared with non=
smokers of the same age.
6. For the bulk of the population of the United States, the im,
portance of'cigarette smoking as a cause of COiPD is much, greater
than that of atmospheric pollution or occupational exposure. How-
ever, exposure to excessive atmospheric pollution or dusty occupa-
tional materials, and cigarette smoking may act jointly to produce.
greater COPD morbidity and mortality.
7. The results of experiments in both animals and humans have
demonstratedl that the inhalationi of cigarette smoke is associated
with acute and chronic changes in ventilatory function and pul-
monary histology. Cigarette smoking has been shown to alter thee
meehanismi of pulmonary clearance andl adversely affect ciliary
function.
8. Pathological studies have showni that cigarette smokers who
die of diseases other than COPD have histologic changes charac-
1!75'

teristic of COPD in the bronchial tree and pulmonary parenchyma
more frequently than do: nonsmokers..
9. Respiratory infections are more prevalent and severe amongg
eiga.rette smokers, particularly heavy smokers;, than arnang,
nonsmokers.
110. Cigarette smokers appear to devel'op postoperative pulmo-
nary: complications rnore frequent'lythani nonsmokers:

Author concludes that
since hypermorbidity
for smoking persists
in smoking-discordant
MZ population, a
- - -
casual relationship of
smoking and broncho-
pulmonary symptoms
is supported.
No ex-smokers included
in Group B analysis.
The authors conclude
that the data indicate
a strong probability
of a causal connection
with smoking. Even
these symptoms,
however, seem to be
influenced by genetic
factors.

INTRODUCTION
During the early years of this century, a number of pathologist!,s
andi clinicians reported a dramatic increase in the incidence of lung
cancer. Autopsy studies and studies of' lung cancer death rates re-
vealed a significant increase beginning priortoW'orld War I and
continuing duri'ng the ensuing years. This epidemic of lung cancer
continues to the present day, with nearly 60,000 deaths expected
frorn this disease in the Unitled'i States during 1970.
Beginning in th:e1920's, a number of reports appeared which
suggested' a r.elati:onshap between lung, cancer and tobacco smoking
(4, ?113, ?78)1. Since that time, many clinical and epidemiologieal
studies have been published which conffrrmi this relationship. The.
1964 Report (2.91)1 contains a thorough reviiewand analysis of the,
.
data available at that tiine as well as an excellent discussion of the
considerations necessary for theireval'uation.
1Iajor epidemiological studies have demonstrated that smokers
have greatllk- increased risks of dying from lung cancer, compared.
to nonsrnokers. An increased risk of lung, cancer has been found
for every type of smoking habit investigated, but two character-
istics of the ri'sk are particularly evident : The risk is rnuch greater
for cigarette smokers than for smokers of' pipes and cigars, and
among cigarette smokers a dose relationship exists. That is;, the
more one smokes, as measured by total pack-years of smoking,
present level of smoking, degree of' inhalations, or age at start of
smoking,, the greater is the risk. It has als& been showni that the
risk of' 1~ung cancer among ex-smokers decreases with time almost
to the level of nonsmokers; the time requ.ired! is dependent on the
degree of exposure prior to cessation.
Pathologists have found that the squamous cell or epidermoid
formi of'lung cancer is the:most prevalent one in cigarette smoking
populations andl that this form accounts for a major portion of
the rise in lung cancer deaths (154). Stich studies have also indi-
cated a lower prevalence among smokers for oat-cell and adenoi
carcinomas of the lung than for the squamous form„ but in most
studies a higher frequency of these tumors is found among smokers
than among nonsmokers.
S~moking has been implicated i'n the development of other types
of cancer in humans. Among ihese is cancer, of the larynx. A num-
237

ber of epidemiologicali studies have demonstratled' imcreasedl mor-
tality rates for laryngeal cancer ini srnokers,, particularly cigarette
smokers, compared with nonsmokers. Autopsy studies have re-
vealed that a clear dose-relationship, exists between smoking and
the development of cellular changes in the larynx, includ'ing carci-
noma in situ.
Cancers of the mouth and oropharynx have been found to be
more commoni among users of all types of tobacco, than among
abstainers. Although smoking is a definite risk factor in the de-
velopment of malignant lesions of the oral cavity and pharynx, its
relative contribution in conjunctioni with other factors such, as poor
nutrition and alcohol consumption has not been fully clarified.
Similarly; although smokers are more likely to develop carci-
noma of the esophagus than nonsmokers, the relative addit'ional
contribution of smoking in conjunction with nutritional factors
and alcohol' consumption requires clarification.
Smokers have been found to be more at risk for the development
of cancer of the urinary bladder than are nonsmokers, and there
is evidence to suggest that sorne smoking-indnced abnormal meta-
bolic product or abnormal concentration of a, metabolic product
may be responsible for this increased risk. In additiony cancer of
the kidney is apparently more common in smokers than in non-
smokers, but the epidemiologic evidence for this relationship is
not as definite as for bladder cancer..
Epidemiological studies have indicated, an association between
smoking and cancer of the pancreas. The significance of this rela-
tionship is unclear at this time.
Experimental studies have demonstrated the carcinogenicity of
the condensate of tobacco smoke, or "tar." This rnaterial, whenn
painted on the skin of animals, leads to the development' of squam-
ous cell tumors of the skin. Researchers have shown that this
condensate contains substances known as carcinogens, capable of
inducing cancers. Among these carcinogens are severali chemicals
which have beeni identified as tumor initiators, that is, compounds
which initiate changes ini target cells and also tumor promoters,
or compounds whichi promote the neoplastic development of' initi-
ated cells. Other,, as yet unidentified, factors are presumably also
involved because the sum of the carcinogenic effects of the known
agents does not equal that of cigarette smoke condensate.
Ntamerous experimentis have been performed in which whole
cigarette smoke, filtered smoke, or certain constituents of smoke,
such as the "tar," are administered by varying methods to anitnals
or to tissue andi cell cultures in order to investigate the neoplastic-
indlucing properties of cigarette smoke. Particular difficulty has
been encountered in experiments which have attemptiedi to deliver

whole cigarette smoke to the larynx and into the lungs of' experi-
mental animals. This has result'ed, in the use of other methods such
as the implanting of pelIets containing suspected carcinogens and!
the instilling into the trachea of suspected carcinogens as such, or
adsorbed onto fine inert particulate matter as a carrier. The dif-
ficulty with the inhalation studies has been twofold. First, the
animals, particularly the smaller species such as the rat, frequently
die from the acute toxic effects of the nicotine and carbon monoxide
in the tobacco smoke. Second~ the upper respirat'orytract of experi-
mental animals, particularly the nose, is muchi different from anall-
ogous human structures, resulting in a more efficient filtrationi of
smoke in the upper respiratory tract. Nevertheless, ini rodents and&
canines, progressive changes apparently indicative of ultimate neo-
plkastic transformation have been identified in the respirat'orytract.
Recently, two studies in different species and in different target
organs have been reported concerning the developrnent of early in
vasive cancer followi'ng,t'he prolonged inhalation of cigarette smoke.
Auerbach and has coworkers (11) trained dogs to inhale cigarettee
smoke through a tracheostorna: After approximately 29, months of'
daily exposure, these investigators found a number of cancers of'
th~elung.
Dontienwill (76), init'h:e second of these two studies, exposed ham-
sters tolthe passive inhalation of cigarette smoke over varying and
prolonged periods of time. He observed' the development of pre-
malignant changes and, ultimately„ invasive squamous ce1P cancer
of the larynx.
LUNG CANCER'
Cancer of the lung ini the United States accounted for 45,383'
deaths among males and19,024i deaths among females in 1967 (289)' ..
It is presently estimated that approximately 60;000 people will die
of lung cancer during 1970.
The alarming epidemic of lung cancer is a relatively recent'
phenonrenon., Death~ rates for lung cancer (1CDCodes 162, 163'),
rose from 5.6 (per 100,000 resident population per year), in 1'9;39
to 27.5 in, 1967 (289, 290)1. This rapid increase followed the in-
creased use of cigarettes among the United States populatiom The
increase has occurred principally among males, although more re-
centlk- females have shown a similar rising pattern.
The converging evidence for the conclusion that cigarette smok-
ingi:sthemaj,or cause of lung cancer is derived: from vari~edi types
of research including, epidemiological, pathological, andl laboratory
investigations.

A number' of investigators' have focused their interest upon the

tumors:, The major histological types of lung cancer include squa-
mous' ce11' (epidermoid) carcinoma,, small and large cell anaplastic
carcinomas, adenocarcinoma (including bronchiolar and alveolar
types), and' undifferentiated carcinoma (1153). A review of these
studies (table 6) indicates a closer relationship between cigarette
smoking and' epidermoid carcinoma than between cigarette smok-
ing and adenocarcinioma (42, 113).

LUNG CANCEIZ RELtkTIONSHQFS IN WQMEN
Lung cancer death rates for women are presently muchi lower
thani the corresponding rates for men. In addition, it has been ob-
served that among certain strains of mice exposed to carcinogenic
agents, the male animals show a greater tendency to develop, lung
tumors than do the females (200; 307) alt'hough there are strains
for which this is apparent'1y 'not so. The extent of the influence of'
endocrine factors in the sex variation in the incidence of lung
tumors is unknown..
As of 1967 in the United, States, worneni accounted for only about
one-sixtli of the t~otal deaths fromi lung cancer (289). However,,tlhe
lung cancer death rate in women has, risen by over 400! percent ini
the past 40 years. Frorn 1950! to 1967 alone, the rate per 100;000~
population doubled, increasing from 4.5 to 8.9 (2fi'9; 290).
A number of retrospective studnes concerning lung cancer and
cigarette smokirag among women have found that the difference ilnn
the prevalence of lung cancer between males and' females is ac-
counted for principally by those tumors classified as Kreyberg's
Group 1(1.14; .,11)1. These, as was noted above„are the tumors, par=
ticularh= in males, which show the closest relationship withi smok-
ing:, Haenszel, et al. (113), in a study of 115$ women withi lung
cancer, observedl that the sex differential for hzng cancer death
ratesdiminishes, but does not fully disappear when only non-
smokers are consi,dered.
H'amrnond' (178) found that the death; rate for lung cancer in
nonsmoking males was somewhat higher thani for nonsmoking fe-
ma]es. However, the difference ini male-female rates was much
greater when smokers were compared. It appears that a substantial
part of the difference in deat'h rates between xnale smokers and fe-
male smokers can be explained mainly by di'fferences in their smok-
ing habits.
These differences in smoking habits between males and females
are of two types. First, overall consumption among females is still
significantly lower than that among, maies, In 1966 (281), 30 per-
cent of males reported that they had never smoked while for f e-
males the corresponding figure was 5'9' percent. This study also
noted that nearly: three times as many rnales as females reported~
consurning more than 20 cigarettes per day. Second, it has beenn
shown that women smoke differently than men (308) : They begin
smoking later thani men (114)' and do not smoke cigarettes as close
to the end, where proportionally more nicotine and "tar" are in-
haled., Women smoke more filter-tip and "low tar and nicotine""
cigarettes than men. Furthermore, cigarette, smoking still tends to
be heavily concentrat'ed' among women under the age at which lung
cancer is most likeliy to occur:.
251

Fflnally,, analysis of the ratio of male and female lung cancer
death rates (283, 28;4,285, , 286;, 287,288, , 289, 290), reveals that
since 1960 this ratio has shown a steady decline, refllecting, the
greater relative rise in mortality from lung cancer in the female
population.
LUNG CANCER, THE URBAN FACTOR, AND piIR POLLUTION
A number of studies have been concerned with the relative inft-
ences of smoking, urban residence, and air pollution in the etiology
of lung cancer.Table 91ists studies performed'in the United States,.
G~reat Britain, and Jiapan which have dlealt with this questionL Kotin
and Falk (149, 150) andlmore recently the Royal College of Physi~-
cians (228) have reviewed the literature concerning the influence
of' atmospheric andl environmentall factors in the pathogenesis of'
lung cancer.
The: studies listed in, table 9 show a number of important trends.
Lung cancer death rates are found to be higher, arnong urban popu-
lations thani among rural populations. It is not known to what ex-
tent this urbani fact'or in the etiology of lung cancer is due to
differences in the levels of air pollution. Other factors associated
with, urban residence which may influence the etiology of lung
cancer are: differences in srnoking habits bettween the two popula-
tions; occupational differences;, and possible differences in the re-
porting of' lung cancer deaths (228).
The studies also uniformly show that within each urban/rural
grouping, Iung,cancer death rates increase with increased srnoking.
Whether air pollution acts with cigarette smoking to influence lung
cancer death rates in, a combined manner is presently unclear (112,
126; 264, 265), andl the evidence concerning a, separate role of air
pollution in the etiology of lung cancer is still inconclusive (22$)1.
The recent report of the Royal College of Physicians on air pollu-,
tion and health (228) concluded that "the study of time trends in
the deathi rates of lung, cancer in urbani areas d!emonstrates the.
overwhelming effect of cigarette smoking on the distribution of the&
disease. Indeed, only the detailed surveys that have taken individuai
smoking, histories into, account have succeeded in separating the,
relatively very small influence of the `urban factor' on the over-
riding effect of cigarette smoking in the development of cancer off
the lung."

LUNG CANCER AND ~ OCCUPATIONAL HAZARD6.
Uraunium Mining
The excess risk for the develbpment of lting cancer among uran-
ium and fluorspar miners has been known for more than 30 years.
In a recent review, Bair (17), noted that radon and radion-diecay
products are the only inhaled radionuclides to be epidemiolbgically
related to, lhng cancer. Lundin,, et as. (178), in a continuation, of
the work in~itiated by Wagoner, et al. (299, 300, 301), have re-
cently reported on a 17-year follow-up of 3,414 white underground
uraniumi miners:, The authors estimated that smoking uranium,
miners experienced ani excess of lung cancer ten times greater than
did: nonsmoking, maners,
Saccomanno (231), in recent testimony, analyzed the data of't'he
United States Public Health Service (USPHS) Stud'y Group asi
presented by Lundin, et al. (178) above. He reported' that cigar-
ette smoking uranium miners incurred lung cancer rates four times
greater than those of other cigarette smokers.
Of the62' lung cancer deathsi~n thi~s population, 60 occurred in
smokers, He also observed, that among 1001,0001 uranium miners
700 lung cancer deaths per year wouldl be expected; to occur among
cigarette smokers compared with only 4 among, nonsmokers.
Other Occupatzons
Nelson ('199 has, recently reviewed certain environmental, and,
occupational hazards as they relate to inhalation carcinogenesis.
He observed that cancer of the respiratory tract has been linkedi
epidemiologically and~ in some cases, experimentally with occupa-
tional exposure to the following materials: chromium, nickel,,
arsenic, and asbestos: Doll (72) and! Goldblatt (100), in earlier
reviews, also noted, an association with coal, natural gas, andd
graphite exposures.
Nickel'
Morgan (194) noted t'hat much of the: nasal and: lung cancer, at-
tributed to nickel exposure may have been due to arsenical' impuri-
ties found in processedf nickel' prior to~ 11925. Doll (69), found that
the number of' excess deaths among nickel workers under 50 years
of age hadi declined following the change in nickel manufacturingg
processes. The experiments of Hueper (13'4) and SUnderman„ et al..
( 267„268;, 269 ) have shown that both guinea, pigs and rats develop
lung, cancer following chronic exposure to nickel carbonyl' or nickel,
dust. SUnderman and Stiinderman (270)i also reportedl that ciga-
rette smoke contains nickel and that this concentration of nickel
256

may be capable of'inhibit'ing the induction of lung aryl hydroxylase,
an, enzyme which i'sabl':e todet~oxify aromatic hydrocarbons includ-
ing known carcinogens such as benzo[a]pyrene.
I
Asbestos
In 1955, Doll (71) found' that lung cancer was a definite hazard
among asbestos workers. In a more recent study, Selikoff, et al,
(251, 252) examinedi the relationship of smoking and asbestos ex-
posure to lung cancer. These authors followed 370 people who had
been asbestos workers during the years 1942-1962; Over a 5-year
follow-up period~ 94 deaths occurred~ in this group, of which 24~ were
due to bronchogenic carcinoma. The authors noted t'hat according
to data obtained from Hammond (118), only 3.1i6'd'eaths from lung
cancer would have beeni expected' among smokers; and caiculated a
7:6't'o 1.00 mortality ratio due to asbestos exposure. None of the 87
nonsmokers or pipe and cigar smokers died of lung cancer. When
the expected number of'nonsmoker deaths (0:26), is comparedlwith& tlheactua.lnu:mbe~r(1.24) ,
whi~chi occurr~ed' among, the smoking asbes,
tlos workers, ani extremely high mortality ratio of 92'to 1 is obtained,,
thus reflecting the possible: interactioni of asbestos exposure andd
cigarette smoking.
Exposure of mice (179) and rats (106) to asbestos dust or the
intratracheal injection of chrysotile asbestos dust has resulted in
the production of significant numbers of primary pulmonary car-
cinomas, Miller, et al, (184) exposed hamsters to intractracheal
injections of benzo[ja]pyrene. These authors observed that the addi-
tion of the chrysotile variety of'asbestos to the ilnjections appearedl
to promote benzo[a]pyrene carcinogenesis in the respiratory t'ract,
as determined by the time of appearance and yielde of papillomas'&
and carcinomas,
Arsenic
A recent epidemiol'ogic study by Lee and Fraumeni (163) has
indicated an excess of lung cancer deaths among smelter workers
exposed to arsenic for more than one year. Cigarette smoking was
not taken into account in their computations'., Experimental work
on the induction of cancer in animals using, arsenic has yielded
either negatiive or inconclusive results (133, 135)1. , '
Cji.romium
Exposure to, industrial bichromate compounds has; been associ~-
ated with an excess of lung cancer deaths (22;255). Laskiny et al.
(159) have recently reported that intrabronchial pellet implanta-
257

tion of various chromium compounds in rats is associated with the
development of squannous ce111 carcinomas and adenocarcinomas.
However, Nettesheirn, et al. (200) exposed mice to chrorniumi oxid'e
dust and observed that it had no discernible effect on lnng, tumor
incidence.
PATHOLOGICAL STUDIES
Investigators who have conducted! detailed autopsy studies onn
patients who died of lung, cancer have reported the increased pres-
ence, when compared to noncancer patients, of bronchial epithelial
changes which they considered' to be precursors of bronchogenic.
carcinoma (7, 8, 23, 51,,.104,, 208, 220, 279, 309). Such changes&
include squamous metaplasia, atypical squamous metaplasia (with~
acanthosis, dyskeratosis,, and numerous mitotic figures)y, and car-
cinomal in situ. Carnes (54 noted that carcinoma in situ was pres-
ent in 119 cases of lung cancer but not in any of the 119' controls
who were matchedl for age, sex, and race.
Autopsy studies comparing, the frequency of these caneer-
related changes in the lungs of smokers and nonsmokers are pre-
sented in table 101. , Virtually all the studles noted an, increased
prevalence of these epithelial aiterations among smokers as cornr
pared with nonsmokers. Definite dbsage-dependent relationships
were evident in the: results of many of the reportls:, Also, Auerbach,
et al. (14), observed that the number of cells with atypical nuclei'
decreases progressively in the bronchial mu~cosa of' ex-cigarette
smokers; depending upon the number of years between, cessation of
smoking andl death„althougli it usually remains above that found in
nonsmokers.
The cytologic studfies included in this table (182,, 198, 222) all
noted an increased percentage of sputum specimens showing, meta-
plasia among smokers as compared~ withi nonsmokers.
PULMONARY CARCINOGEI>IESIS
General Aspects of Carcinogenesis
Agents found in cigarette smoke which have beeni identifLe& as,
or are suspected of being carcinogenic, are listed in table 11. The
list includes certain compounds which most probably contribute to
the pathogenesis of the various cancers discussed ini the other sec=
tions of this chapt'er: Nfany other agents have beeni identified in
tobacco and tobacco smoke. At the present time, they do : not appear,
to bear a dlirect relationship to carcinogenesis. Stedman (262) and.
Wynder and Hoffmann (;91'9) provide detailed listings and discus-
sionscancerniingthese: materials.

In ord'er to facilitate understanding of the relationships of' the
various compounds to one another, the third column presents the
presently understood relative importance of each of the various
groups of' compounds:, These compounds have been tested only in,
animal's or tissue cultures, and' it should' be stressed that the rela-
tive importance of one compound may not be the same in man as
it is in animals.
Table 11 is davided' into two major sections. The first section
detail'sthosecompoundawhich are considered to:be~or are suspectedi
of being cancer initiators. These are compounds which induce
irreversible changes in responsive cells. In the seconid' section are
listed those compounds which are considered to be or are suspected
of being tumor promoters. These compounds promote the malig-
nant reproduction, ofcell'sin which neoplastic changeshaves been
initiated. A number of these initiators may also act as complete
carcinogens in their own right., The evidence concerning the two
stage initiation-promotion mechanism is st'ill'rather limited for
respiratory tract careinogenesis..
The pol'ynuclear aromatic hydh~ocartions (PAH) listedi are pres-
ently considered to play a very significant role in pulmonary car-
ciinogenesis due to tobacco smoking: These compounds act as tumor,
initiators or complete carcinogens. The particular role of these
agents in environmenta]I and occupational carcinogenesis has been
reviewedi by Falk, et ai: (93)1. Thatt suchi hydrocarbons are pro-
duced from tobacco during human smoking has been shown by
Kiryu andi Kuratsune (1.46)1. These authors reported the presence
of benz[a]anthracene, chrysene, benzo{a]pyrene, and benzo-
[b]fiuoranthene in the "tar"' produced by normal smoking and'
measured in either filters or stubs.
Two hydrocarbons which have frequently appeared in the Yitera-
ture on experimental tobacco carcinogenesis may not actually be
present in tobacco smoke. They have been used as representatives
of carcinogenicPAl-I, a cla:ss which iincludes many constituents that
have beeni identified in cigarette smoke condensate. They are
7,12'-dimethylbenz[a]ant'hracene and 3-methyTcholanthrene andi
have been frequently used as tumor initiators or complete carcino-
gens, particularly in skin painting and tracheal implantation
experiments.
The nitrosamine eovnpounds listed: are potent carcinogens affectl-
i'ng many organ systems, including the respiratory tract (188,
189). Magee and Barnes (181): have presented a detailed account
of experiments in this area.. Nitrosamines have been identified inn
trace amounts in tobacco "t'ar"' and'the:condiitions required for their
formation (the presence of secondary amines and nitric ox~ide) are

found in tobacco smoke (38). 1}iowever,, nitrasamines may be arti-
facts dependent on the method of smoke collection (201).
'hTeurath (202)~ considers the niitrosamines list'edi in, table 11 as
being present in fresh cigarette smake (253, 254). However, con-
clusive confirmation of their presence in fresh smoke is not availiable
(!38, 138, 155, 319).
Certain of the pesticides and fungicides presently in use on,
tobacco'have been found to'be carcinogenic (91, 273, 280) . A num-
ber of' these, such as DDT, are now being phased out of regular
domestic use. The compound's listed have been shown to be present
in trace amounts'ini mainstrearll tobacco smoke (111;128) . A recent,,
extensive review by Guthri~e (111), provides more detailed informa-
tion concerning, these agents..
Radznactive isotopes can be foundi in tobacco and'tobaceo smoke
(105). Potassium-40, while present in tobacco leaf,, is not trans-
mitted, in any subst''antiai amount to, mainstream smoke (230).
Polonaum-2l'0 (P'o~,,,))i, however, is transmitted intothe mainstream
smoke (94, 1'23, 142; 145, 215, 217). A number of autopsy studies
(table A12) have shown that the bronchial epithelt<um, of smokers
contains significantly more P'o~,o than that of nonsmokers. Litt'le,,
et al. (172, 173, 1741) have also noted that the concentration of
poloni,urn was markedly higher at sites of bronchial', bifurcation.
These! aut'hors stress the importance of this finding for pulmonary
carcinogenesis by noting that bronchogenic carcinomas are fre-
266

quently located at bifurcations andl that the polonium~ l'evels whichh
they found in those regions probably have biologic significance
(216). Other investigators (123, 217)' have not observed thiss
excess at bifurcations, and in a recent discussion, Wyndor and Hoff-
mann (320) concluded that it appears unlikely that P'oz1o in thee
amounts present in cigarette srnoke plays a role in tobacco car-
cinogenesis.
Although not listed as a separate group, there are a number of
agents in cigarette smoke which are potent inhibitors of ciliary
movement. Their importance in carcinogenesis derives from the:
increased amount of'time which they afford the known carcinogens
to be present on the surface of the bronchial epithelium. These
inhibitors include volatile aldehydes, hydrogen cyanide„ nitrogen
oxides, volatile phenols, and certain, volatile acilds such as formic
andl acetic (129).
Experimental 'StudiesIn some respects, the animal andi tissue culture studies detailed
below apply to neoplastic transformations, not only in the lung but
in other tissues ini which tobacco smoke, particularly cigarette
smoke, is believed to play a role. These general' experi'ments will be
presented here, however.,, with the experiments which bear on lung
tissue directly.
Skin Painting and Subcutaneous Injection
Numerous animal studies on rats, mice„ andi rabbits, have been
performeduti~lizingknown carcinogens, whole tobacco"tar,"" and'
various tobacco condensate subfractions; or compounds known to
be present in tobacco smoke. These experiments involve the single
or repeated painting of shaved or unshaved animall skin. A selected
number of these studies is presented in table A113. Numerous other
studies, performed prior to and follo`ving T9'53, are reviewed by
Wynder and Haffrnann (319).
The skin painting method is still considered to be a valid pro,
cedure for the identification of agents suspected of participating in
pulmonary carcinogenesis, as well'i as for the quantification of' the
reduction in tumorgenicity of specific agents.
Tissue and Organ Culture
The exposure of tissue and organ cultures to cigarette smoke, its
condensates, or its constituent compounds has been shown to sig-
nificantly alter patterns of eell' growtk and reproduction. Table A14
present~sani outline of t'heseexperirnents. Once againsless severe
effects have been noted when filtered smoke was used (165).

Tracheobronchial' Implantation and Instillation
More complex experiments concerning, the carcinogenicity of
cigarette and tobacco smoke are representedi by those whiieh involve
the direct impiantation,, instJillationy, or fixation of suspected ma-
terials ihto the tracheobronchial tree of animals. Certain of these
experiments are outlined in table A1!5. Recent' reviews by Saffiotti'
(233, 231;) Laskin, et al. (159), and 1Vlontesano, et aI. (189) as well'
as that by Wynder and Hoffmann (31'9)i provide more detailed' and
extensive accounts of these experiments.
Of note among the results outlined in thistable are the following :
The enhanced carcinogeniieityfound whenibenzo[a]pyrene (B[a]iP)l
ilscombined with acarriiersuchashernatite dust(235),, andi the
definite increase in bronchial epithelial' preneoplastic and neo-
plastic changes among dogs treated' with smoke condensate as com-
pared with those undergoing only physical, bronchiali stimulation
(224).
Inhalat'ion
Variousspecies,incl~uding, mice,, rats; h~amsters,and dogs, have
been exposed to cigarette smoke or aerosols of its constituents.
These inhalation experiments are outlined in table A16. It must be
notedl that the majority of' the studies listed involve the passivee
inhalation of'the material presented usually in a chamber. Active
inhalation experirnents, exemplified by the work of R'ockey and
Speer (223) and Auerbach and his colleagues (11, 119)1 invollved'
animals which were trained! t'o inhale voluntarily, thus more closely
simulating human smoking.
Results of note among these experiments include the following:
Muhlbock (195) observed that cigarette smoke inhalation en~-
hances the already substantial, rate! of spontaneous alveolar' cell
carcinoma formation in hybrid mi'ce„ and various investigators in-
duced adenomas in experimental animals (108, 168;, 206). Harris
andNegroni (121) found that exposuret'o cigarette srnoke achieved
some enhancementt of adenocarcinoma formation in mice but did
not observe proven sqiuamous cell carcinoma. Some of their mzce
had also been exposed to Swine intl~uenza virus aerosol. In ai relatedd
study, Boren (32), exposedi hamsters to cigarette srnoke at set inter-
vals over a 48-hour period. The author observed alterations in pul-
monary cell kinetics (the pattern of DNA synthesis)' as demon
strated by H3-thymidine autorad'iography. The pattern of the label-
ing' response to cigarette smoke was significantly different fromm
that of the response to high oxygen concentrations:.
Auerbach, et alL (11) have reported the development of early
269

i

rW
invasive squamous cell bronchogenic, carcinoma in dogs following
a period of direct inhalation of' cigarette sTnoke.These investiga-
tors trained beagle dogs to inhale cigarette smoke through aa
tracheostoma (.50) and divided the animals into groups according
to dosage as detailed in table 17. A number ofl'dogs died during the
course of'the experirnent which ran for 875 days, or approxirnately
29 months. The causes of death are listed ini table 18. A1l!, of thee
remaining dogs, with the exception of group "h" (high exposure,
heavy weight), were sacrificed shortly after day 87,5; ; the survivors
among the.heavier dogs are continuing to smoke.
Examination of the respiratory tree of the animals revealed aa
number of turnors (table 19.). Most of these were similar to the type
of tumor w.hichi in man is referred to as bronchiolb-alveolar. This
tumorr arises in the bronchi:olar and alveolar epitheliu¢n and tends
to be muIticentric. Two striking characteristics of these bronchiolo-
alveolar tumors were, tlhe existence of' a histolbgi'c spectrum (fxomm
a tumor resembling the: benign condi~tionofadenosisto f'ranklynlalignant tumors with invasioni of
the pleura and surrounding
p<uenchyma): and the marked tendency to: squamous change. Inva-
sive bronchiolo-alveolar tumors were found: in, 12' dogs in the group
which had been exposed to the largest dosage of cigarette smoke.
Several had turnors of more than one category. Ten of these dogs
iradinvasiv.e bronchiolb-alveoiar tumors which did not exten& into
the pleura, one dog had an invasive bronchiolo-alveolar tumor
%vhich extended to the pleura, and fonr hadi invasive bronehiolo-
;aveolar tumors extending, into the! pleura beyond the pleural-
pulmonary junctions. In addition, two bronchogenic sq,uamous cell
C,u•.cinonlas ,vere foundl in this group (table 19)1. The dosage de-
pendence of tumor, formationi is shown in figures: 2 and 3.
Major findings of' the study were twofol'd. First, that smoking
rilter-tip cigarettes was less harmful, both, ini terms of pulmonary
parenchymal darnageand ]tzng tumors, than smoking identical
cigarettes without filters. This supports the generally held view
that total particulate matter is a, meaningful indicator of the car-
cinogenic potential of a cigarette. Second, lung cancer of two types
fc,unci in, man was prodluced, by the inhalationi of cigarette smoke.

both belonged to the high-dosage

Rr rlicctinn in Z'untorigenicity
The importance of reducing total particulate matter in cigarette
Srnoke i's~ reflected in th~edose-dependent results of'the Auerbach-
Hammond study. A major objective of experimental tobacco car-
cinogenesis must be the reduction in the tumorigenicity of cigarette
smoke and other, tobacco products. In a recent article (320),
1I-ynder and Hoffmann have reviewed the various methods applied
to achieve this goal. Among these methods are the modification of
the tobacco itself, the modification of the conditions of tobacco
pYro13-~~sis, the use of additives, and the use of filters. The use of
tillters should produce ai reduction of particulate matter as well as
of gas phase components.
Bross, (-~4)studied974casesof lung cancer at Roswell P'ark:
Memorial Institute and concluded' that smokers who switched to
filter cigarettes showed a decreased risk of developing lung cancer.
I lowever, even after switching, heavy smokers were stilF found too
have a mortality risk five times that of nonsmokers.
More recently, Wynder, et al. (!324) report'ed' on an interview
study.of :»/)patients, withhQstologically confirmedi lung cancer and
•>5`?' age and sex-matchedi controls. They found that subjects who
Iiaci switched from nonfilter to filter cigarettes teni or more years
prior to the study incurred a lower relative risk of lung cancer at
alllconsumption levels than that incurred by those who continued to
smoke nonfilter cigarettes. The authors suuggest that this difference
in relative risk may be due to the lbwer "tar" content in filter
cigarette smoke. Prospective studies concerning, the effects of filter
cigarette smoking are presently being conducted.
Apart from variations in "tar" exposure due to filtration, iltt
appears that different patterns of smoking result in the inhalation
of varied amounts of "'tar.''' Graham) et al. (103) simulated' dif=
ferent inhalation patterns with the use of an analytic smoking ma-
chine: He found that smoking a given number of'puffs over a long
period of'time results in greater "tar" retrieval than smoking them
over a short periodl Also, he observed that taking most of the puffs
at the end of the cigarette results in the highest retrieval while
taking most at the beginning results in the smallest retrieval.
Complementing these observations is the same author's case/con-
trol study (1112) of 183 men with lung cancer andl 161 men wit'hh
diseases not related' to tobacco smoking. He found that the lung
cancer patients had significantly greater high "tar"' yield cigarette
smoking patterns than the controls, The risk of liang, cancer was
found to increase with the increase in mean number of puffs per

cigarette, the average length of time taken to smoke a cigarette
(except in the highest number of puffs category), and the taking
cancer and total cigarette smoke condensate exposure:

SUMMARY AND CONCLLISIoN6
the view that cessation of smoking by large numbers of cigarette
smokers would' be followed by lower lung cancer dieat'hh rates.
6. Increased death rates from lung cancer have been observed
among, urban populations when compared with populations from
rural' environments. The evidence concerning tlie role of air pol'lu.
tion in the etiology of lung cancer is presently inconclusive. Factors
such as occupational and smoking habit differences may also con-
tribute to the urban-rural difference observed. Detailed epidemio-
logic surveys have shown that the urban factor exerts a small
influence compared! to the overriding effect of cigarette smoking inn

ner as to produce higher levels of "tar" in the inhaled smoke,
5. Ex-cigarette smokers have significantly lower death rates for
lung cancer than continuing smokers. There is evidence to support
smokers who smoke high "tar" cigarettes or smoke in such a man-
mortality ratios appear to be lower in women.
3. The risk of developing lung cancer among pipe and/or cigar
smokers is higher than for nonsmokers but significantly lower than
for cigarette smokers.
4. The risk of developing lung eancer appears to be higher among
parently have similar levels of exposure to~ cigarette smoke, thee
tion, and, diminishes with cessation of smoking.
2. Cigarette smoking is a cause of' lung cancer in women but
accounts for a smaller proportion of' cases than in men. The mor-
tality' rates for women who smoke, although significantly higher
than for female nonsmokers, are lower than for men who smoke.
This difference may be at least partially attributed to difference in
exposure ; such as, the use of fewer cigarettes per day, the use of
filtered and' low "tar"' cigarettes, and lower levels of inhalation.
Nevertheless, „eveni wYieni women are compared with men who ap-
ettes smoked per day, the duration of smoking, and earlier, initia-

EPIDEMIOLOGICAL STUDIES'
A number of epidemiological studies have investigated the rela-
tion:5hip betlween smoking, habits, and the development of eancer~
of the larynx. The major prospective studies, as outlined in table.
20, show that smokers of cigarettes run an approximately six-to-
tenfoldl risk of dying from this form of cancer as compared to non-
smokers. S4nokers of pipes and cigars incur a three-to-sevenfold.
risk. The retrospective studies listed in table A21I uniformly show
fewer nonsmokers and' more smokers among cases with cancer of'
the larynx than among matched controls. Table A22' suQnmarizes
the relative risk ratios derived from the retrospective studies. The,

But, in general~ the magnitude of'
most of these ratios is of the same order as in the prospectiiaee
studies:.
Wynder, et al. (312) have distinguished between cancer of thee
intrinsic and extrinsic larynx. Tumors arising, on the vocal cords
are classified as intrinsic and constitute approximately 7,0 percent
of'the lesions. The extrinsic larynx:is composed of those sectionsof
the larynx excluding the vocali cords and' may also be referred to as

the hypopharynx. These authors noted that the percentage of heavy
smokers among the patients with cancer of both the extrinsic and
intrinsic larynx was significantly greater than that among controls..
However, it is of interest that the excess risk of' laryngeal cancer
among cigar and pipe smokers in this study could be attributed to
the extrinsic laryngeal group.
As in studies of oral cancer, it appears that alcohol consumption
should also be taken into account in studies of laryngeal cancer.
Wynder, et al. (312)' reportedl a significantly increased' risk of
extrinsic cancer among those with alcohol' intake above 7 ounces of
whiskey per day. With less than this amount, no increased risk was
evident..Schwartz, et al, (248), not'ed no effect in relation to alcohol
intake. Further research into the interaction of'these two variables
is necessary.
PATHOLOGICAL STUDY
Auerbach, etal: (9) studied histological changes in the larynges
of942' men, age 21 to 95, who wereautopsiedl at a single hospital
between 1964 and 1967. Cases of primary cancer of the larynx «~-ere
excluded from the study. Srnoking, histories for al'11 cases were
obtained from family members of the deceased by trained inter-
viewers. The randomi'zed histological sections were graded by one
observer. Tables A23 and A24 summarize the findings in the true
vocal cord. Of'the men who never smoked, 7& percent hadl no cells
with atypical nuclei, only 4.5 percent had sections with areas con-
taini~ng 6'0to69 percentofcellswi~th atypical nuclei'; and none had~
a hQgherpercentlage: The1116 ex-smokershad~ laryngeal histology
similar to that of the nonsmokers, as far as atypicat nuclei were
concerned. However, disintegrating nuclei were found in 40.5 per-
cent of the ex-cigarette smokers and in only 0.4 percent of theg remaining cases. Only one of the 94
cigar and; or pipe smokers had
no atypical cells. Three had carcinoma in situ, and one case~ had a
section showimg early invasive primary carcinoma.
The highest percentage of atypical cells was found among the
cigarette smokers. The proportion of' cases with a high degree of
cellular ehange~ increased with increased dail.V smoking. Nloneof
the pack-or-more-a-day smokers was free of atypical nuclei in the
laryngeal epithelium. Of those who smoked two or more packs per
day, 85 percent had lesionswi'th60s percent or more atypical cells
as compared to 4 percent of the nonsmokers, Between 10 and 18
percent of the cigarette smokersliadl areas of carcinomai,n situ,
and 4 of the 644 cases showed earlyy microscopic invasion. The
thickness of the basal lievei of the true vocal cordi was also directly
relkated to the amount smoked.

port the conclusion that cigarette smoking is a significant factor in;
the causation of canceroft'he1'arynx. The risk ofdeveloping
laryngeal cancer among cigarette smokers: . as well as pipe and/or

buccal mucosa, andl oropharyns. It is estimated that 15;000 of these
cancers will be diagnosed in the Un2ted States in 1970,, accounting
for about 2.5 percent'' of the estimated 600,000 malignant neo-
plasmsreported (289). A variety of histologicaltypes' of malig=
nant neoplasms can affect these tissues, but squamous cell car-
cinoma is by far the predominant type, accounting for about 90
percent of the: cancers.
The incidence of andi mortality from arali cancers ha& remained
steady over the past 20 to W years. The Connecticut Cancer Reg-
istry (88)', which is a fairly reliable index of incidence, noted thatl
the incidence among, rnades remained, between 15.8 and 16.3 per.
100,000 population during the years fromi 1950-1961. Examination
of mortality rates over the past 20 to 30, years (282, 289) reveals
a similar constancy.
The apparent lack of ehange~ ini mortality from oral cancer ini
284

contrast to the sharp increase that took place in lung cancer rates
in those years~ is~~ probably~ dhe to several of~~ the ~ following factors.
First„pihe and cigar smoking are both significantly related to can~-
cer of ~~ the~ or.a1~~ cavity, and the! increase ini cigarette smoking among
men, notecli between 192~0~ and 1955, has~ been, tlo~ a large degree,
accornihaniedl by ~ corr~espond'ing~, reductions in the use of' pipes, andd
cigars. Second, aside from the various changes which the Interna-
tionad Classification of~D~iseases~~ (IICD~,) had! ~ undergone during that~t
period, the diseases discussed above are recordedl in ICD Codes
1~1~U-1~-18 whi& inclkldle sorne~ neopl'asms~ not found t'o~ be~ relat'edl to~
the use of tobacco: The various sites of' cancer themselves do nott
r-ontrilnite equally to the overall rate and are subject to widely dif-
ferent cure rates;, so that their contributions to the total incidenee
rate~ is~ different fromi their contribution to the overall! mortality~
rate from oral cancer. Although more than 20,000' cancers of the.

With or without smoking, use of alcohol appears to contribute
to the develbpment of oral cancer (124, 140; 18:, 297, 322)~. In a
study of' male veterans, Keller (140) found that heavy smoking
and heavy drinking were associated with cancer of the mouth and
pharynx. No studies are presently available which determine the
relative contributions andl possible interactions of' heavy smoking,
heavy drinking, and concurrent nutritional deficiiencies in the etiol-
ogy of these cancers.
EXPERIMENTAL STUDIES
In 1964,, the Advisory Committee to the Surgeon General on
SYnoking and Health (291)' reported that cigarette smoke and ciga-
rette smoke eondensateshad' failed to produce cancer when applied
to the oral cavity of mice and rabbits or to the palate' of hamsters
and that the oral mucosa appears' to be resistant in general to can-
cer induction even when highly act'ive carcinogens such as benza
[a]pyrene are applied. Some of the difficulties in experimental de-
sign~ were attributed to the fact that mechanical factors, such as
secretion of saliva, interfere with ther.et'ention of applied carcino-
genic agents' on the tissues of the oral cavity and pharynx. Positive
results with certain carcinogens have, however, been obtained iln
the hamster cheek pouch, but it has also been pointed out that the
cheek pouch lacks sal.i'varyy glands and that its structure and func-
tioni differ from those of the oral mucosa. The majority of'these
studies are outlined in table A29:
Although cigarette smoke condensate acts as a complete carcino-
gen oni mouse skin, the work of several authors (319), supports the
concept that cigarette smoke contains cancer promoters that may
be of' special importance, particularly in oral carcinogenesis. Elzay
(90) has reported that whole cigarette smoke is a promoting agent
for the hamster cheek pouch, More importantly, regarding the
chewing of tobacco, Bock, et a]. (27,30), Van Duuren, et a]. (294),
and W'ynder and Hoffmann (321'), have shown that unburned to-
bacco products contain tumor promoters that might contribute to
the promoting, activity of the' smoke.
Roth, et al. (226, 227) have shown that the dye-binding capacity
of' the~ DNA of' oral epi~theli'~a31 cel~ls~ is~~ significantl~y enhancedl in
cigarette smokers in contrast to nonsmokers, probably reflecting
an increase ini the DNA content of oral epi'theliali cells in smokers.
Smokers hadi values of dye-binding capacity intermediate between
nonsmokers and' 21I patients with proveni oral cancer. Those smok-
ers who refrained from smoking for up to six months showed a
significant decrease toward more normal values.

SUMMARY AND COIvCLUSI0Ir1S.
1. Epidemiologiicall and experimental studies contribute to: the
conclusioni that smoking is a significant factor in the development
of' cancer of the oral cavity and that pipe smoking, alone or, in
conjlunction with other for.ms of tobacco use, is causally related to
cancer of the lip.
2. Experitnentlal'' studies suggest that tobacco extracts and
tobacco smoke contain initiators and promoters of cancerous
changes in the oral cavity.
CANCER OF THE ESOPHAGUS
Esophageal cancer accounted for 4„306 deaths among American
males in 1967 and 1',321'deaths among females, The deat'h rate
from esophageal cancer has remained relatively constant since
19-19'.
EPIDEMIOLOGICAL STUDIES
The major prospective epidemiolbgi'cal studies (table 30)~ have
indicated a significant relationship between smoking and esopha-
geall cancer. Overall mortality ratios for male cigarette smokers
range from~ 11.7-I' to 6+17: There are insufficient data concerning
fensales, for establishing firmconclusions.
A number of retrospective stud7es concerning the relatibnship
of smoking and esophageal cancer are! outl'inedl in table A31 and
A.,1a. Smokers incur risk ratios ranging, from 11.3 to 6.6 when
compared with, nonsmokers.
As in studies of oral cancer, the effect of alcohol consumptionn
must betaken into account in studies of esophagealeancer: Because
a relatibnship between alcohol consumption and tobacco use is
kno«ai to exist, Wyzid'er and Bross (310) analyzed the association
between tobaceo consurnptioni andl esophageal cancer after adjust-
ing f©rr alcohoL intake. They found t'hat' in the absence of alcohol
consumptibn~ there was no association between the use of tobacco
and esophageall cancer but that i'n the presence of aleohol consurnp-
ti'on, an increasing relative risk with increasing number of ciga-
rettes smoked was apparent, as well as an association between
cigar~ and pipe smoking and esophageat caneer.,
More recently, Takano, et al. (272), in a retrospective study of
•?0'0patient,~with esophageal carcinoma, found ani increased risk
With smoking which was magnified by increased! alcohol consuQnp~
tionL 'Martinez (183), analyzed the association of' tobacco, usage
and esopha;g,eall cancer after controlling for age, sex, and alcohol

were noted. The consumptioni of very hot beverages was also found
to be related to the development of esophageal cancer.
PATHOLOGICAL STUDY
Autopsy studies of smokers as compared withi nonsmokers, spe-
cifically observing the pathological changes in esopliageall tissue,
have been performed by Auerbach, et al: (15). A microscopic study
was made of 12;598' sections of esophageal autopsy tissue fromi
1,268 men who died from causes other than esophageal cancer. The
findings were strikingly similar to the abnormalities generally ac-
cepted as representing premalignant tissue changes in the respira-
tory tract epitheliumL)usophageal epithelial cells with atypical
nuclei (having ani irregular distribution of chromatin)' were found
far more frequently in cigarette smokers than in nonsmokers. Basal
cell hyperplasia and hyperactive glands were also found more fre-
quently in cigarette smokers than in nonsmokers, An, increase in
frequency with amount of cigarette smoking was noted for bothh
epithelial cells withi atypical nuclei and basal cell hyperplasia..
Tables A32 and A33 summarize these findings.
EXPERIIWIENTAL STUDIES
Kuratsune,, et al. (1'56)' investigated the possibility that the car-
cinogens known to be present in tobacco smoke could penetrate the
esophageal epithelium more readily if dissolved in aqueous ethanol.
Mice were exposed to several compounds by esophageal intubation.
Tissues were then removed and studiediby fluorescence microscopy.
Deeper penetration and a different distribution were found when
B'[a]P' was dissolved in aqueous ethanol as compared to B'[la]P in
olive oil. It was also found' that benzo [a] anthracene and fluoran-
thene dissolvedl in ethanol solution or aqueous caffeine solution
could penetrate the epithelium, of the esophagus:.
H'orie, et al. (132)' reported on the development of 10 papillomas
and one squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus in a group of
63 mice periodically forced to drink ai solution of benzo[a]pyrene
dissolved in diluted ethanol. Twenty-six papillomas and one squam-
ous cell carcinoma also develbped in a group, of' 63 mice to which,
4-nitroquinoline 1-oxidle was administered in the same way. None
of the 67 control animals given only dfilut'edI ethanol developed
neoplasms.
Several other authors have reported nitrosamine-ind'uced' esopha-
geal cancer in experimental animals (56, 79, 80; 81). As noted
above, the presence of nitrosamines in cigarette smoke is stilll a
subject of debate.
{

SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS
1. Epidemiological studies have demonstrat'ed that cigarettee
smoking,i's associated with the development of cancer of'the esopha.
gus. The risk of developing esophageal cancer among pipe and/or
cigar smokers is greater than that for nonsmokers and of about
the same order of magnitude as for cigarette smokers, or perhaps
slightly lower.
2. Epidemiological studiies have also indicatedi an association be-
tween esophageal cancer and alcohol consumption and'tithat alcohol
consumptlion may interact with cigarette smoking. This combina-
tion of exposures is associated with especi'a1Iyy high rates of cancer
of the esophagus.
CANCER QE THE URINARY BLADDER AND' KIDNEY
EPIDEMIOLOGICAL STUDIES ('BLA'DDE%)'
Cancer of the urinary bladder accounted for 6,019 deaths among
Arnerican rnades andi 2,743 deaths among American females in 1967
(28>~).Ilncidence rates have increased fromi 1949 to 1962 (88), bu'ttlhe death rates from bladder
cancer have remained relatively
stable during that period. Improvements in early diagnosis and.
therapy may have masked the increasing incidence of'this disease:
A number of'epidemiologicaI studies have indicated that smokers
have ani increased risk of contracting or of dying from bladder
cancer (see tables 34 and A35). Certain of these studies include
kidney cancer, mortality in the results. The nrnajar, prospective stud-
ies, with tiheexception of' that of' Britishi physicians,, have shown,
bladder cancer mortality ratios among cigarette smokers ranging,
from 1.40 to 2.89. ,S~mokersof more thani 1 pack per day were sh'ownn
to incur ratios of 3.42 to 5.41. The study by Doll andl Hill (74, 75))
of Bi•itish physioians, on the other hand, reports death rates for
smokers to be lower thani those of nonsmokers based on 38 bladder
cancer deaths. The mortality ratios for pipe or cigar smokers are
substantially lower than those among cigarette smokers. Pipe
smokers were~shown by both Hammond and Horn (120) and Kahn
(13!9)toincur ratios, approxirnating, 1.20.
Retrospective studies (table A35a): have also shown an increasedd
proportion of smokers among bladder cancer patlients when com-
paredi with matched controls: Relative risk ratios for bladder can-
cer among, smokers range from 1.0 to 7.3' among all smokers and
up to 10.3 among heavy smokers of all types.

EPIDEMIOLOGICAL STUDIES (K~dDNEY)~.
A total of 5,894 Americans died of cancer of the kidney during
19!6'Z. A relationship between smoking andl this type of cancer has
been suggestledl by several epidemiological studies. The three major
studies which separately examine the relationship of'kidney cancer
to smoking (table 34'),, namely those! of Hammond (118),, Kahni
(139), and Weir and Dunn (306), have shown mortality ratios for
all cigarette smokers to, range from 1.42' to 2.46. Retrospective
studies by Bennington, et aL (18, 19)' have indicatedi a significantl
association between all forms of smoking and renal adenornal and
ad'enocarcinoma.
EXPERIMENTAL STUDIES
Numerous experiments have been undertaken by many investi-
gators to elucidate the relationship of tobacco smoking t&bladder
carei'nogenesis. The two areas of major concern have centered upon
the presence of' a known bladder carcinogen, beta naphthylamine,
in cigarette smoke andl the presence of abnormal tryptophan me+
tabolism in patients with bladder cancer.
By virtue of data gathered concerning industrial' exposure of
workers, beta naphthylarnime has long been knowni as & bladder
carcinogen. Complernenting such data was the work of Hiueper, et
al. (136) who subjected mongrel dogs toidaily subcutaneous injec-
tions and oral administration of commercial beta naphtihy lamine..
Thirteen of the 16 animals deveioped bladder papillomas and car-
cinomas of the bladder. S'affiotti, etl a11, (236)', fed hamsters a diet
containing up to 1.0 percent' beta naphthylamine and observed that
1!8 of 39' anilmals developed bladder tumors, almost all typical tran-
sitional cell carcinomas. More recently, Conzelman, et a1L (59) ad-
ministered beta naphthylam2ne to~ 24 rhesus monkeys for more
than 30 montlhs.. Transitional cell carcinomas of the urinary blad-
der were indiacedlin 9 of'the! aniinals, and a dose-response relation-
ship was apparent.
Pailer, et al. (207) and' Miller and St'edinan (185)~ failed' to iindd
t'his amine in cigarette smoke., However, more recently, Hoffmanns
et al. (127)' identified it in cigarette smoke. The authors, noti'ng
the minute quantity present in each cigaret!te (2.2' x 10"g), hesi~
tated' to attach a biological significance to the finding.
Of more recent interest have been the metabolites of tryptophan
present in certain patients withi bladder cancer. A number of nor-
mal and abnormali metabolites of tryptophan have been found, to
be carcinogenic when tested, by implantation in the bladd'ersof mice.
These include 3-hyda•oxykynurenine (OHIs,y), 3'-hydroxyanthranilic.

acid (OHA), 3'-hydroxy-2'amino~acetophenone (ala orthoaznino-
phenols)„the 8-methyl: ether of xanthurenic acidl (CHXa), xanthu-
renic acid1 (Xa), Lrkynurenine (Ky), quinaldic acid, and 3-meth-
nx, vanthranilic acid (3CHOA) (2, 36, 37, 39~,4r, 48). OHKy and.
OHA are frequently present in human urine, as i's kynurenic acid
(KyA).
Certain investigators have coneentratledl their attention on the
presence of abnormal tryptophan metabolites and' increased
aniounts of normal tiryptophani metabolites in the urine of patients
with bladder cancer ~ as, comparedi withi selectedl controls (1',4~~~, 4~6~,.
'1~, 2~41J, 329). These authors have observed the increased
f,xcretion of Ky, KyA, OHKy, anthranil'ic acid, OHA, andl acetylky-
,rureiri'ne in such patients, Yoshida, et al. (329), in a recent study
concerning the relationship between tryptophan metabolism and
l,e',erotopic recurrences of human urinary bladder tumors, reported
that those~ patients with recurrences showed abnormal metlabol'ite-ycretion more often than those
wit'houtt recurrences..
The relationship ofsrnoking, to: these biochemical findi'ngs, i'si^.re-zentlyuncertain. Kerr, et al.
(14,3~), in 3Qexperimentl& on 3.
~n_okers and 3nonsmoker& wrho: were, gi~venlargedoses, oftrypt'o-
I>haun, found that smoking increased the urinary excretion of OHKy
,tncl OHA and decreased that of N'methylnicotinamide (an end
,,rfociuct of tryptophan metabolism). Kerr concluded that smoking
ittt~-rferes with the normal metabolism of tryptophan. Recently,
I~'rown) et al. ( f:~ ) studied 115 ' adult's under smoking and abstinence
C'Aadiitions and found that except for the basal excretion of'acetylky-
nirretnin~e; tryptophan metabolite excretliondU not ch~angew~ith>Mul<ing or cessation. The authors
also compared 13 nonsmokers
and 17 regular cigarette smokers underbasal and tryptophan-
I6acleri conditions. No differences were observed in the excretion oftiae measured tryptophan
metabolites. However„ d:ueto itsinstabil'-
it!.%', OHA was not measured. The authors concl'udedl that the rela-
tionship of smoking to:urinary bladder cancer waspr~obablynotviaits effect on the kynurenine pathway
of tryptophan metabolism.
Another experimental approach to the relationship of smoking
and urinary bladder cancer is reflected in the work of Schlegel', et
C'~~, M~•5.)~. The aut'horsobserved an elevated concentration of
certain ortho-aminoph~enols in the urine of bladder cancer patients
and cig~arette, smokers,, when compared with nonsmokers(,244).
More recently (2%S), the same group compared the chemiluminesr
cence of the urines of smokers, nonsmokers, and bladder tumor
patient,.. Theynotledl that nonsmokers showedl thelbwest level of
luminescence (which they relate to the presence of aromatic hydro-
carbons)and the, bladdert'umor patients the highest leveh The
normal' cigarette smokers" leveli was found to be intermediate.

SUMMARY~'' AND CONCLUSIONS
1. Epidemiological studies h:ave, demonstrated~ an~ association~ of~
cipr~~arette~ smoking w~~ith~ cancer~ of'the~ urinary~ bladder among men.
The association of ~ tobacco ~~ usage and'~ cancer~ of the k~idney~ is~ less~
,~l ear-cu t..
''. Clinical and pathological studies have suggested that tobacco
<Inoking may be related~ to alterations in the metabolism of trypto-
;;ihrin and may in this way contribute to the development of urinary
tract cancer.
CANCE~R~: 0'~F~ THK PANCREAS
e~~eral prospective~ epidemibl':ogic~ studies have suggested a rela-
tirm:hip between cigarett:e~ smok:ing~ and! cancer of' t'he~ pancrea~s!
:
(~table,a£i)~. A retrospective study ~ofl~465~cases~~of~pancreatic~cancer~
iln-~ I:shii', et al. (137), has shown a dbse-related increased riskof'
i~ancreatic~ cancer~in~ association with smoking.: Analysis of~ dietary~
data revealed that the relative risk for pancreatic cancer, from
,-;moking was considerably greater than from dietary factors.
\ o experimental stud'ies relating to this question have been
reported.
SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS
Epidemiological studies have suggested an association between
cigarette smoking and cancer of the pancreas. The significance of
the reldtionship is not clear at this t'ime..

that the lack of

suggests that the
increased tumori-

Conclusions: t tResults not provided
No squamous cell respiratory cancer noted. This is attributed in tabular form.
to the limitation of inhajation time (CO and nicotine acute
effects) and to the anatomicallyy and physiologically intricate .
nasal passage defense system. - -
Exposure to cigarette smoke, NO2, or volatile acide and d ald_e-
hydes leads to reactive hyperplasia and metaplasia, both of
which were noted to be reversible.
Swine influenza virus exposure produced hyperplastic and
metaplastic effects which could not be enhanced by subse-
quent exposure to cigarette smoke.

INTRODUCTION
In recent years, there has beeni increased research on envixon-
rnental factors which may: adversely affect the unborn child. The&
potential effect of rnaternaU smoking on the fetus has been of par-
ticular interest because of' the large number of pregnant womenn
who smoke and because smoking is an environmental influence
which could be controlded.Based on 1'9'70surveysof' smokinghabitls in representative samples of the
U'.S, population, it' is
estimated that one-third of Ameri'can women in the child-bearing
age group of 15 to 44 years are cigarette smokers:, What propor-
tion of these give up smoking or cut down subst'antially on their
smoking during pregnancy is not known.
F7FFECT ON BIRTHWEIGHT
Epidemiological and experimental stud~ies have supported the
view that' maternal smoking during pregnancy exerts a retarding
influence on fetal growth (tables 2, 6)'. Analysis of over 100;000'
births shows that the infants of mothers who smoke during preg-
nancy have a mean birthweight of 6.1 ounces less than the infants
born to nonsmoking mothers (table 2)~. Several studies have docu-
mented that this effect is independent of other factors known to
exert a negative influence on infant'birthweight; such as elevatedd
maternal blood pressure and small maternal size (1, 36, 39). The
reduction in infant birthweight i& greatar among heavy smoking
mothers than light smoking mothers (i12, 21, 23, 30,, 41,,50, 58), and
has beeni found in pregnancies terminating, in each trimester (12,
16, 23, -4'0; 51, 54). In a study of more than 48,000' women, Under-
wood,, et aI. (51) demonstrated that infants born to women who
smoked during part of their pregnancy were significantly smaller
than infants born to: nonsmokers; and that infants borni to women
who smokedl tlhroughout theirpregna,ncyweresignifiieantly smaller
than the infants born~ to women who smoked during partt of their
pregnancy. Russell, et aiL (39) have presented evidence, that al-
though, infantls born to smoking, mothers weighed less than those
of nonsrnoking, mothers, they grew more rapidly during the first
six months of life. At one year of age, children born to smoking
mothers weighed nearly the same as those born to, nonsmoking
mothers. They concluded that smoking exerts a retarding influence
389

on, fet'al'growth and that after delivery tlhis is largely compensated
for~by~~ a period~ of more~ rapild' ~ growth.
As dbcument'ed' in more than 15 prospective and retrospective
studies, smoking mothers have significantly more infants who are
premature, as defined, by weight albne (<2,500) grams, thani do non-
smoking mothers (table 3). Buncher (4) studied' the mean dura=
tion of pregnancy in smokers andi nonsmokers in a survey whichl
included 49,897 live births, He found that women srnoking, 20
cigarettes a day had a mean length, of gestation which was approxi-
mately one day shorter than that of nonsmoking women. He calcu-
lated that this shortening of gestation is enough to account for only
10 percent of the known reduction in birthweight that is associated
with maternal smokinz.
EFFECT ON OUTCOME OF PREGNANCY
Some controversy has surrounded, the question of whether ma-
ternal smoking, during pregnancy is associated with an increasedd
risk of spontaneous abortion, stillbirth, and, neonatal' death., Table
4 summarizes the studies which have dealt with this question. Some
of the studies did not demonstrate such an increased risk (7, 34,
50, 51), while others did (12, 23, 33, 58). Many of these reports
(7, 23, 33, 34, 41, 49; 58) were based oni retrospective studies and
included women delivering their infants in hospitals andl infants
whose~ namesappeared on listings ofnewborni children (table 1).,
As Russell, et al. (39)' have pointed out, such studies may be sub-
ject to selective bias si'nce they tend to underrepresent womeni who
have aborted. These retrospective studies also did not systemat-
ically control for maternal social cTass, parity, and maternall age„
all of which are related to the out'come of' pregnancy and' also are
d related to smoking in some populations. In a prospective study of'
more than 2;000 pregnant women, Russell, et all (39) have demon-
strated a significantly higher percentage of unsuccessful pregnan-
cies (that is, abortion, stillbirth, or neonatal death) among women
who smoked~ during their pregnancy than among those who did
not. Hie interpreted his findings to mean that 20 percent of ". . . un-
successful pregnancies in women who smoke regularly wouldi have
been successful if'the mother, hadi not been a regular smoker"' (38)1.
The Second Report of the 1958 Britilshi Perihatali Mortality Sur-
vey published in 1969' is one of the largest prospective studies to
deal with this quest'ioni (5) . It included 98 percent of the total birthss
registered diZriiag one week in March 1958' throughout England,
Scotland, and Wales. In this study; a large amount of obstetric and
sociobiologic information was obtained on 17,000 singleton births.
This study reported that "the mortality in babies of smokers was
significantly higher than in those of nonsmokers." The increase in
