Few studies estimated the PARs of oral cavity cancer to tobacco smoking alone, alcohol drinking alone and their joint consumption but none performed analysis stratified by subsite, gender or age.

Agriculture is the most important sector of the economy in India as it provides food and livelihood security. The industrialization of agriculture has favored the use of plenty of agrochemicals including fertilizers, pesticides, micro nutrients, and plant growth regulators in the agricultural fields. Pesticides are an integral part of modern agriculture. The use of pesticides in agriculture is obvious for the prevention of crop-damaging pests, fungus, unwanted plants (weeds) and a number of crop-eating animals like rodents etc.

For example, if it were possible to implement a number of equity-oriented anti- tobacco policies which would reduce the prevalence of smoking in the lower socioeconomic groups by 33%, while the prevalence of smoking in the higher socioeconomic groups would decline by 25%, our analyses suggest that a substantial impact would be generated. Not only would health inequalities be reduced considerably, but also some 7% of the economic costs of health inequalities through mortality and morbidity would be taken away (including the costs of health care and social security benefits).

Cigarette smokers were 2.7 times more likely to have respiratory diseases than those of non-smokers. Similarly consumption of alcohol and use of non-smoked tobacco were found to be risk factors of hypertension. BMI more than 25 was risk factor for hypertension and diabetes. On the other hand risk of respiratory diseases and cataract increased below a BMI of 18.5. Risk for musculoskeletal problems was found to be higher in both extremes of physical status. The higher risk of diseases to the both extremes of BMI suggests a U- shaped relationship of diseases with BMI. BMI less 18.

Household consumption data includes information on 96 different types of food, tobacco and alcohol consumption, transport services, personal care, household cleaning products, entertainment, clothes for adults, clothes for children, health related expenses, house furniture and gambles.

A clustering of the disease among close relatives has also been shown, although there is no consensus on which inheritable genetic defects are involved. In spite of extensive research, reliable findings on risk factors relating to lifestyle, diet or the environment remain elusive. Possible lifestyle risk factors are high intakes of α-linolenic acid (a polyunsaturated fatty acid in vegetables and dairy products) and calcium.

Periodontal disease progression is episodic in nature on a tooth site level, but more recently, it has been realized that it is principally patient-based rather than site-based (Zia et al., 2011); the host related risk factors could be the key to better understand disease evolution. The available evidence shows that important risk factors for periodontal disease relate to poor oral hygiene, tobacco use, excessive alcohol consumption, stress, and diabetes mellitus (Laurina et al., 2009; Taylor & Borgnakke, 2008).
