The Health Consequences of Smoking Database has been developed in collaboration with the Institute for Global Tobacco Control at the Bloomberg School of Public Health, Johns Hopkins University and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Office on Smoking and Health. The database includes abstracts of more than 1,600 key articles cited in the 2004 Surgeon General's Report: The Health Consequences of Smoking. This database was originally developed to present the evidence on smoking and disease to jurors in a lawsuit against the tobacco industry. The original database included qualitative and quantitative data from many major studies of smoking and disease outcomes, encompassing more than 900 references. |
