| Core Tip |
United States studies show that, in never users of other products, current smokeless tobacco use associates with a significant (P < 0.05) increase in risk of the four major smoking-related diseases, with relative risks, compared to never users, of almost 1.6 for lung cancer and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and 1.3 for ischaemic heart disease (IHD)/acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and stroke. This increase is substantially less than for smoking. In Scandinavia, current snus use, does not significantly increase risk of IHD/AMI, stroke or lung cancer, with no data for COPD. Smokers unwilling to quit might consider these smokeless products. |
