SAF: Smoking attributable fraction, DALYs: Disability adjusted life years, COPD: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, ^aOther cancers include cancers of the lip, pharynx and oral cavity, esophagus, stomach, pancreas, larynx, cervix uteri (women), kidney and renal pelvis, bladder, liver, colon and rectum, acute myeloid leukemia, ^bOther heart diseases include rheumatic heart disease, pulmonary heart disease, and other forms of heart disease, ^cOther vascular diseases include atherosclerosis, aortic aneurysm, and other arterial diseases * For these diseases the same SAF were chosen for the age groups 35–54, 55–64, 65–74 due to the RR availability.
