Dynamics of smoking cessation and health-related quality of life among Canadians / by Margot Shields, Rochelle E. Garner and Kathryn Wilkins.CS82-003/2013-2-1E-PDF

"People who smoke are at increased risk of lung and other cancers, heart attack, stroke, chronic lung disease and premature death. After smoking cessation, these risks diminish, but little is known about the time required to regain the level of health of people who have never smoked. This analysis describes trajectories of health-related quality of life (HRQL) in relation to smoking status, focusing on the time required for former smokers to achieve an HRQL level similar to that of never-smokers"--Abstract, page 3.
