Interestingly, the effect of smoking on CKD progression varied depending on CKD stage (Figure 1)
In the research done by the researchers at the Vanderbilt University, it has been stated that in the Asian countries, the average percentage of males who used tobacco was 65.4%, the average percentage of females using tobacco was 7.8% and the average age at which they started using tobacco was 22.8 years
There are no tobacco industry logos, brand imagery, colours or promotional text

First of all, congratulations on having a fascinating train of thought
