Abstract

The burden that smoking places on health is easy to recognize. Cigarette smoking is the primary preventable cause of illness and death in the United States. Statistics are alarming, including the more than 400,000 deaths attributed to cigarette smoking per year (1). Also a leading cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, cigarette smoking accounts for approximately 115,000 heart disease-related deaths and 27,000 deaths in the United States from strokes each year (2)
