- Abstract
The author discusses a research on the pooled analysis of eight Swedish cohort studies about the effects of snuff use on stroke risk by J. Hansson and colleagues, present within the issue. Topics discussed include the use of smokeless tobacco (ST), the increased risk of stroke in smokers than non-tobacco users, and the health hazards of snuff use. The author mentions that the study concludes the increased risk of long-term case fatality is higher in snuff users as compared to nontobacco users.
