(i) What are the odds of developing lung cancer if you are a smoker, and,(ii) what are the chances of a smoker dying because of smoking? I would like it expressed as follows: smokers have a 1 in X chance of developing lung cancer; smokers have a 1 in X chance of dying because of smoking. Most research i have read expresses it as e.g., "smokers are 30 times more likely to develop lung cancer then nonsmokers." This is not very helpful, as the chances of a nonsmoker getting lung cancer are never given. |
