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.

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 .

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.

As moat ofthe excess risk associated with smoking is caused by smoking," this fourfold risk redo implies that about three quarters of he myocardial bfarcdons among c1prstte smokers aged 50-'59 wtxe caused by tobacco (two L A at ages 50-59, but four fifflu at ages 30-49) . 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 .

(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 .
