Abstract

“Bolzán et al study, published in this issue of the Argentine Journal of Cardiology is an example of the relevance of the epidemiological information. Based on local data, this study provides evidence on the magnitude of smoking as a contributing factor to mortality in related chronic noncommunicable diseases, such as cancer, cardiovascular and respiratory diseases.”
