PASSIVE SMOKING DOES CAUSE LUNG=20 CANCER,=20 DO=20 NOT LET THEM FOOL YOU

The World Health Organization (WHO) has = been publicly=20 accused of suppressing information. Its opponents say that WHO = has=20 withheld from publication its own report that was aimed at but = supposedly failed to scientifically prove that there is an = association=20 between passive smoking, or environmental tobacco smoke (ETS), = and a=20 number of diseases, lung cancer in particular. Both = statements are=20 untrue.

The study in question is a case-control = study on the=20 effects of ETS on lung cancer risk in European populations, = which has=20 been carried out over the last seven years by 12 research = centres in 7=20 European countries under the leadership of WHO's cancer = research=20 branch -- the International Agency for Research on Cancer = (IARC).

The results of this study, which have been = completely=20 misrepresented in recent news reports, are very much in line = with the=20 results of similar studies both in Europe and elsewhere: = passive=20 smoking causes lung cancer in non-smokers.

The study found that there was an estimated = 16%=20 increased risk of lung cancer among non-smoking spouses of = smokers.=20 For workplace exposure the estimated increase in risk was 17%. = However, due to small sample size, neither increased risk was=20 statistically significant. Although, the study points towards = a=20 decreasing risk after cessation of exposure.

In February 1998, according to usual = scientific=20 practice, a paper reporting the main study results was sent to = a=20 reputable scientific journal for consideration and peer = review. That=20 is why the full report is not yet publicly available. Under = the=20 circumstances, however, the authors of the study have agreed = to make=20 an abstract of the report available to the media.

"It is extremely important to note that the = results=20 of this study are consistent with the results of major = scientific=20 reviews of this question published during 1997 by the = government of=20 Australia, the US Environmental Protection Agency and the = State of=20 California", said Neil Collishaw, Acting Chief of WHO's = Tobacco or=20 Health Unit in Geneva. "A major meta-analysis of passive = smoking and=20 lung cancer was also published in the British Medical Journal = in 1997.=20 From these and other previous reviews of the scientific = evidence=20 emerges a clear global scientific consensus =97 passive = smoking does=20 cause lung cancer and other diseases", he concluded.

"IARC is proud of the careful scientific = work done by=20 the European scientific team responsible for this study", = commented Dr=20 Paul Kleihues, the Agency's director. "We are very concerned = about the=20 false and misleading statements recently published in the mass = media.=20 It is no coincidence that this misinformation originally = appeared in=20 the British press just before the No-Tobacco Day in the United = Kingdom=20 and the scheduled publication of the report of the British = Scientific=20 Committee on Tobacco and Health".

Further information on the health effects = of passive=20 smoking is available in WHO's Advisory Kit for World = No-Tobacco Day=20 1998 on the World Wide Web at www.who.ch/ntday, as well as = from WHO's=20 Tobacco or Health Unit, Programme on Substance Abuse.

For=20 further information, journalists can contact Igor Rozov, = Health=20 Communications and Public Relations WHO, Geneva. Telephone (41 = 22) 791=20 2532. Fax (41 22) 791 4858. E-mail rozovi@who.ch or Dr Rodolfo = Saracci,=20 IARC, Lyon, France, e-mail saracci@iarc.fr =
