Post‐diagnosis smoking habit change and incident dementia in cancer survivors
Approximately half of pre-diagnosis smokers quit smoking after a cancer diagnosis. Smoking cessation was associated with a 15% reduced risk of dementia. More than 2% of pre-diagnosis non-smokers initiated or relapsed into smoking after a cancer diagnosis. Smoking initiation/relapse was associated with a 29% elevated risk of dementia.
