(Disponible en anglais seulement.)

Matched control group study to determine whether there was a change in hospital admissions for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) among non-smoking individuals after a public smoking ban was implemented in Monroe County compared with Delaware County, Indiana, without such a ban. Researchers found significant reductions in AMI admissions associated with implementation of smokefree laws.
