for measuring concentrations of cholesterol and
albumin (both path Becl®sn reagents) and apolipoproteins At and B (suits Immune reagents) . To corms
for discoloration from haemolycis, an initial blank
reading was subs acted from the final reading. 5ampia
from a large plasma pool were included in each
analytical run, yielding coefficients of variation o f 2
for cholesterol and albumin and 46/6 for epolipopmrrins.
Cases were the survivors in the Uniird I(ingdom
aged 30-79 from the ISIS-3 or ISIS-4 trials who
completed an epidemiological qucadonnaire sent to

was asked to complex it were all Ole survivors from
ISM-3, but from 15154 only the survivors aged 30-59
who on adahissian to hospital were reported to be
ciareete ,molars. Thus, although only eases from
ISIS-3 can be used to compare smokers with nonsmekers, the ease from 1315-4 strengthen the analyses
of tar yields among cmakers shed 30-59. The ISIS-3
questionnaire asked the rases to identify all their
brothers, ilitas, and children aged at least 30
who were resident in the United Kingdom . A
similar "control" quesdonnaire was then seta to
such relatives, accompanied by a second copy, which
the rclnweu, if marred, were to ask their spouse to
complete- One reminder was seat to cases and relatives
who did not reply, and inconsimuclae or omissions
were queried once.

posted the ease questionnaire, of whore 1346 were
found to be dead and 13 969 (79% of presumed
survivors) completed it. The control questionnaire was
sent to 30 247 relatives of ISIS-3 cases, of whom 75
were found to be dead and 21995 (73% of presumed
survivors) and 14 245 of their spouses completed it.
Patients with a history of titrvke, gastointesdnal
bleeding, or ulcer tended not to have been recruited
into the ISIS-3 uial," and so pcoplc with such conditions were not digs'bJc aS c49e$ or controls . Of those
who completed questionnaires, 2002 cases and 3851
controls were excluded because they were under 30,
over 79, or of unknown age or because they had a self
reported history of "delralu stroke" or of "bleeding or
ulcer in (or near) the stomach . "

age is put cularly reliably demonstrated, as are the
hazzrds at the extremes of the age range of 30-79 . The
risk ratio is twofold at ages 74-79, but It is almost
fourfold at ag , 30-59 (dsroefoid at 50-59 but 5 ►cfold If
30-49), }burn these large differesees hew probably
beep somewhat dllutcd by the tniselsssi}leanon of some
smokers or non-smokers. Had it been possible, with no
claaificat on errors, to Compare p tangent agamte
smokers with lifelong non-smokers then the risk ratios
would probably have been still mots extreme than
those in figure 3, and would have been at least Wurfcid
at ages 30-59 . As moat ofthe excess risk associated with
smoking is caused by smoking," this fourfold risk
redo implies that about three quarters of he

50-'59 wtxe caused by tobacco (two L A at ages 50-59,

Any di;ffetenees In the risk of heart disease between
those who are smoking differcat types of cigarette must
be mach la-se earente than the diffeatnces between
smakert and ionrsmokere so especially large studies
are needed to assess them. Moreover, epidemiological
media that were undertaken when tar yields below
15 mg were still uacnmmon (N j Wild er al, tutpublished data)- are of limited contemporary
relevance in countries such as the United Kingdom
where tar yields above 15 mg have already virtually
disappeared (fig Ib) and where a European United
upper limit of 12 rag is soon to be eefoered . As no other

times as great among cigarette smoitas as among

I
a The risks seem to be ll%lttly greater with

difference is not definit e
• Didrrences in risk between cigarette smokers
and son-smokcre are far greater than any differvncca ip risk between one We of cigarette and
inether
• Far More myocardial infarctions could be
avoided by not smoking than by changing from
one type of cigarette to another
analyses that tee staadirdiaed for the amount smoked .
(Those using low tar cigarettes reported smokes
slinky fewer than those smoking medium tar
cigarettes, and if lower daily consumption is chiefly a
consequence of tower yields of tar, nicotine, and other
smoke components then it should not be standardised for.) Hence, table III reports several' diferent
comparisons of disease rates in smokers and in non
smoltcrs, wit1 h, differences that are somedmee more and
sometimes leas than [0%. Also, there was a slight
geodency fur tar yields to be inversely related to
education sod eg various other aspects of toast tat . It
is di£=ulr to see how :case of these uncertainties can be
resolved: large scale eandomissidon is impracticable,
and even if the present study could have been much
larger, thereby narrowing the confidence intervals, the
possibility of confounding would rtmlain .
Despite these uncertainties, however, the present
results provide some reassurance to those in government or in iadusay who could direct decreases in
cigarette to yields to reduce cancer iAejde tee .''h" .
They indicate diet such changes will not subsrrntisily
increase the incidence of myocardial jujigetfon and
miy well decrease it. Tlhus, the limit of 12 mgrcigarstte
an tar yields that is now bed introduced in the
European Union should help limit the number of
premature deaths from tobacco, unless govcmmcm3 or
smokers come to retard reduadons in tar yield as
substitutes fur she avoidance of ageretras, for in
developed crannies tobacco remains much the most
impostamr rinse of premature death. T W ii pardeulsdy so for mere, with toboeoo now causing about a
third of all deeths in middle aged men- But where
women lave been smoking cigarettes for some decades
(as, fior example, in the Ualred Kingdom or the United
Surer) tobacco also already causes about 3 quarter of
all the deaths in middle aged women,'
For the general population, therefore, the most
important finding is not the slight and rsnratsia
difference in figure 4 bow= out type of cigarette and
anathes but the lard and definite difference in fgtme
3 between cigarette smokers and doe-smokers,
particuujady in early middle age IrrecpeCdve Of
whether low or medium tar cigarettes are used, about
due quarters of the smokers who bavt la heart stuck
in their 30e, 40a, or 501 need not have done so, and far
more heart attacks eoeld be prevented by not ,molting
than by reducing cigarette tar yields .
