Résumé : | Epidemiological analyses indicate that disease attributable to smoking is a leading contributor to the large gap in premature mortality between the 15 countries that formerly made up the European Union and the new member states from central and eastern Europe. However, the prevalence of smoking in most countries has not been measured in a sufficiently consistent way, or over a long enough period, to be used to predict trends in diseases caused by smoking. What is already known on this topic: Lung cancer mortality among men is higher in central and eastern Europe than in the 15 original (western) states of the European Union. For each sex, lung cancer rates are distinctly higher in Hungary than elsewhere. What this study adds: Lung cancer mortality is now falling in middle aged men in all new EU states in central and eastern Europe but is still rising among women in most EU countries.
