In general, as indicated in slide 11-12, smoking is proved to be related with onset of lung cancer.

However, have you ever heard that alcohol is related with onset of lung cancer?

If you divide the table in slide 14 by status of smoking, you will see that there is no relationship between lung cancer and smoking.
