contents Role of active and passive smoking on lung cancer etiology in Mexico City Alexander Corcho Berdugo Francisco Franco Marina Jaime Villalba Caloca Salud case Mexico control odds ratio lung cancer Objective. To estimate the association between passive andactive smoking exposures and lung cancer in Mexico Cityand the corresponding attributable risks. Material andMethods. Data was analyzed from a multicenter population-based case-control study conducted in Mexico City.Results. ORs for lung cancer in ever smokers were 6.2(95% CI 3.9-10.2) for males and 2.8 (95% CI 1.7-4.4) forfemales. Passive smoking at home showed an overall OR of1.8 (95% CI 1.3-2.6), similar in both genders. Attributablerisk for active smoking for both genders combined, and formales and females separately, was estimated at 55, 76 and27%, respectively. Attributable risk for passive smoking athome was 17% for females, 3.9% for males and 12% for theentire population. Conclusions. In Mexico City smoking isattributable to a smaller proportion of lung cancer casesthan in developed countries. This is explained by a lowerintensity of smoking in the Mexican population. 2006 artículo científico 0036-3634 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=10600308 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=106 Salud Pública de México application/pdf Instituto Nacional de Salud Pública Salud Pública de México (México) Num.Su3 Vol.48
