A Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to estimate relative risks(RRs) and 95% confidence intervals(95% CIs) of deaths associated with cigarette smoking. PARs and 95% CIs for deaths were estimated from smoking exposure rates and the estimated RRs.Results: Cigarette smoking was responsible for 23.9%(95% CI: 19.4-28.3%) and 2.4%(95% CI: 1.6-3.2%) of all deaths in men and women, respectively, in our study population. Respiratory disease had the highest PAR in men [37.5%(95% CI: 21.5-51.6%)], followed by cancer [31.3%(95% CI: 24.6-37.7%)] and cardiovascular disease(CVD) [24.1%(95% CI: 16.7-31.2%)]. While the top three PARs were 12.7%(95% CI: 6.1-19.3%), 4.0%(95% CI: 2.4-5.6%), and 1.1%(95% CI: 0.0-2.3%), for respiratory disease, CVD, and cancer, respectively in women. For deaths of lung cancer, the PAR of smoking was 68.4%(95% CI: 58.2-76.5%) in men.Conclusions: In urban Shanghai, 23.9% and 2.4% of all deaths in men and women could have been prevented if no people had smoked in the area. Effective control programs against cigarette smoking should be strongly advocated to reduce the increasing smoking-related death burden.展开更多
