ATLANTA (AP) — A smoking ban in one Colorado city led to a dramatic drop in heart attack hospitalizations, according to a new study that is considered the best and longest-term research to show such a link.

The rate of hospitalized cases dropped 41 percent three years after the ban of workplace smoking in Pueblo, Colo., took effect. There was no such drop in two neighboring areas, and researchers believe it’s a clear sign the ban was responsible.

The study suggests that secondhand smoke may be a terrible and under-recognized cause of heart attack deaths in this country, said one of its authors, Terry Pechacek of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Give your heart a break and quit smoking. An estimated 438,000 premature deaths yearly are a result from smoking and exposure to secondhand smoke. According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC) smoking costs the nation $93 billion per year in lost productivity. The real cost of a pack of cigarettes is actually about $40 when all the costs are added, retail price, medical treatment from resulting disease and lost productivity.

Dec. 15 (Bloomberg) — Smokers can sue over the marketing of “light” cigarettes, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in a decision that bolsters billions of dollars in claims against Altria Group Inc.’s Philip Morris USA and other tobacco companies.

The justices, voting 5-4, said a federal labeling law doesn’t shield cigarette makers from suits accusing them of deceiving consumers by describing cigarettes as “light” or “low tar.” The court also said federal oversight of cigarette testing didn’t preclude those lawsuits.

Light-cigarette suits represent probably the most significant legal threat facing the tobacco industry, with dozens of smoker suits against Philip Morris, Reynolds American Inc.’s R.J. Reynolds Tobacco and other cigarette makers. Lights account for more than 80 percent of the U.S. market, according to federal figures.

Anti-smoking advocates are hoping U.S. president-elect Barack Obama will become a role model for their campaigns.

Obama, who is struggling to break the habit, “is in a position to help people understand that it’s difficult to quit, and to encourage the 43 million adult Americans who smoke to join him in his efforts,” said Cheryl Healton, president of the American Legacy Foundation, which works to prevent young people from starting the habit.

ScienceDaily (Dec. 2, 2008) — Previous studies have shown that babies exposed to tobacco in utero are more likely to have a low birth weight and are at increased risk for sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). Now new research by The Miriam Hospital reveals that these babies are also less likely to self-soothe and are more aroused and excitable than newborns whose mothers did not smoke during pregnancy.

Researchers from The Miriam Hospital’s Centers for Behavioral and Preventive Medicine say early identification and targeted intervention efforts aimed at both infants and parents may help prevent possible disruption in early maternal-infant bonding and, ultimately, long-term adverse outcomes. The study is published online by the Journal of Pediatrics.
