The article discusses a comparison study on articles that appear on tobacco-focused journals such as "Tobacco Control" and "Nicotine & Tobacco Research." Under the study, 2,050 articles published in 2000 to 2008 have been coded based on epidemiological framework components such as agent, host and vector. One finding shows that "Nicotine & Tobacco Research" published a higher ratio of host papers. Another finding indicates that "Tobacco Control" published a higher ratio of environment papers.
