Trichopoulos, D., Kalandidi, A., Sparros, L. and MacMahon, B., ."Lung Cancer and Passive Smoking," International Journal of Cancer 27(1): 1-4, 1981. This case-control study included 51 women admitted to three large hospitals in Athens with a final diagnosis of lung cancer other than adenocarcinoma or terminal bronchial (alveolar) carcinoma. Of these, 14 were histologically confirmed and 19 cytologically confirmed. Controls (163 in all) came from a different hospital, one for orthopedic disorders. The study is described as reporting observations suggestive of lung cancer as an effect of "'passive exposure" to cigarette smoke. Only 23 cases were married to current smokers. RRs for spousal smoking habit were presented as 2.4, for husbands smoking 1-20 cigarettes per day and 3.4, for husbands smoking >20 cigarettes per day. No CIs are presented. The authors acknowledge the small sample size and preliminary nature of this report.
