The harmful effects of cigarette smoking are caused by exposure to some of the 8700 or more identified chemical constituents, some of which contribute to disease development.
“It is now generally accepted that the harmful effects of cigarette smoking are caused by exposure to some of the 8700 or more identified chemical constituents [6–11], some of which contribute to disease development.”
From A Randomised Study to Investigate the Nicotine Pharmacokinetics of Oral Nicotine Pouches and a Combustible Cigarette (2022) · cites this paper as [11]
The section on exposure to whole tobacco smoke says that many smoke chemicals are toxic and that a few causative constituents have been identified, supporting the claim that some constituents contribute to disease. It reports more than 4,000 chemicals, however, and does not substantiate the specific figure of 8,700 or more. (LLM, conf=0.88)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
