Main Results:

  • Confirmed strong association between smoking and lung cancer (85%).
  • Identified specific patient cohorts at higher risk for multiple cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases.
  • Highlighted significant problems and limitations in current screening programs.

Conclusions:

  • Smoking cessation and targeted screening are crucial for high-risk individuals.
  • Addressing current screening program deficiencies is essential for improving patient outcomes.
  • Future research should focus on enhancing screening efficacy and patient risk stratification for lung cancer, stroke, and heart disease.
