abstract="To the Editor: The longitudinal cohort study by Carter et al. (Feb. 12 issue)(1) provides evidence of new causes of death associated with smoking. We were surprised by the authors' statement that among the deaths that were associated with smoking, &quot;a small proportion was due to other, less plausibly causal, associations with outcomes, such as suicide and accidents.&quot; The tables in the Supplementary Appendix of the article (available at NEJM.org) show that for current smokers who were 55 years of age or older, the relative risk of death was 4.4 from suicide and 1.6 from accidents among women and 3.2. . .<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
