Secondhand-smoke and CVD A Global Epidemic Richard D. Hurt, M.D. Professor of Medicine Director, Nicotine Dependence Center http://ndc.mayo.edu
Richard D Hurt MDFinancial Disclosure 9/13 • Current Industry Grants 2010-13: Pfizer Medical Education Grant • Consulting past 12 months: None • HAVE NOT AND WILL NEVER ACCEPT ANY MONEY FROM THE TOBACCO INDUSTRY
Objectives • Discuss the science behind secondhand smoke and its effect on the various organ systems and production of disease. • Demonstrate knowledge of the cigarette industry’s efforts to confuse and deceive the public over decades. • Demonstrate knowledge of the acute effects of secondhand smoke and its effect on the vasculature • Understand the positive effects of smoke-free workplace laws on the reduction of acute myocardial infarction.
The increase in smoking has resulted in the progressive elimination of one non-smokers’ sanctuary after another – drawing-room, bedroom, work-room, place of entertainment, conveyance, and finally, of late years, hospital ward and sanatorium, even when and where patients seriously ill from respiratory diseases are under treatment.

Dr. Adlkofer who is the Scientific Director of the German Verbandt, has committed himself to the position that Lee and Hirayama are correct and Mantel and TI are wrong. They believe Hirayama is a good scientist and that his nonsmoking wives publication was correct. He replied with a strong statement that Hirayama was correct, that the TI knew it and that the TI published its statement about Hirayama knowing that the work was correct.

…probably the single most important challenge we currently face. This will have a very direct and major impact on consumption -- an impact which will be as bad as, or worse than, excise tax increases.
We have been referring to our initial approach as “sand in the gears.” Our objective was to slow down the ETS risk assessment until we could get broader policy declarations out of the Administration. To be honest, we made every effort to prevent the Risk Assessment.

Senator Helms further complained about Secretary Sullivan’s statements… This position was further strengthened by a Howard Baker to Sununu call indicating that Sununu was understanding of our situation.
On July 23, 1989 Senator Baker completes his one year “cooling off” period during which he could not by law, lobby his former employer. Since he will now begin to play a more active role in our government affairs programs, I think it is timely to suggest ways he can most effectively complement our activities. The Senator is in a special position to accomplish four goals:… A. Unique Intelligence Source: …On broad policy matters such as taxation, regulation, personnel, and other Administration policies, he gives this Company the intelligence that few if any other consultants can duplicate.
B. A High Level Advocate: Senator Baker’s attachment to this Company gives us an effective high level advocate of our policies. C. A Master Strategist: …he is particularly skilled in the art of tactics…especially with how this Company should position itself through a protracted policy debate. D. A Goodwill Ambassador: …the coming months will provide countless opportunities to maximize the Senator’s activities on our behalf.
Science for Hire • Smoke-free indoor air policies cigarette consumption • Global ETS consultant program intended to influence public opinion on secondhand smoke • Program run by U.S. lawyers because they “…have expertise in both scientific and public affairs arenas.” • Consultants wrote articles and books for scientific and lay press, presented at conferences, lobbied political figures, testified before legislative bodies Muggli ME, et al.

We do know that choice and accommodation with regard to smoking are two powerful and positive positions. And, our spokesmen cannot utter those two words enough.
Effect of Smoke-Free Restaurants on Teen Smoking • Longitudinal 4-year, 3-wave study in Massachusetts youth from 301 communities. • 3834 Massachusetts youth age 12-17 at baseline • Interviewed 3x over period of 4 years • Youth living in towns with strong smoke-free restaurant laws were less likely to progress to established smoking (OR 0.60, 95% CI 0.42-0.85) • Impeded transition from experimentation to established smoking Siegel, M et. al.

Conclusions • The implementation of smoke-free ordinances was associated with 33% decrease (p< 0.01) in MI and 17% decrease (p= 0.13) in SCD • The magnitude is not explained by secular trends, community concurrent interventions or changes in known cardiovascular risk factors • SHS exposure should be considered a modifiable risk factor for MI and SCD • All people should avoid SHS exposure but people with known CV disease should have NO exposure to SHS
Smoke-free Laws and Reduced AMIHow Could This Be True ? • Non-linear dose response to SHS • People with pre-existing CAD • SHS→ ↑platelet adhesiveness • SHS→ Endothelial dysfunction → arterial dilatation • SHS→ Coronary velocity reserve Juster HR, et al, Am J Public Health 97:2035, 2007
Effect of Smoke-Free Workplaces on Smoking Rates • Systematic review of 23 studies • Prevalence of smoking by 3.8% • smoking in continuing smokers by 3.1 CPD • If all workplaces were smoke-free, per capita consumption of cigarettes would by 4.5% in USA and 7.6% in UK • $1.7 billion and £310 million loss to tobacco industry Fichtenberg CM & Glantz SA. BMJ 325:188, 2002
Also, the economic arguments often used by the industry to scare off smoking ban activity were no longer working, if indeed they ever did. These arguments simply had no credibility with the public, which isn’t surprising when you consider that our dire predictions in the past rarely came true.
