N2  - Preston, Glei, and Wilmoth (2010) recently proposed an innovative regression-based method to estimate smoking-attributable mortality in developed countries based on observed lung cancer death rates.  Their estimates for females, however, differ appreciably from some published estimates.  This article presents a modified version of the Preston, Glei, and Wilmoth method that includes an age-period interaction term in its model.  This modified version produces improved estimates of smoking-attributable mortality that are consistent with results from a modified version of the Peto-Lopez indirect method.
