The association between various parameters of acute and chronic smoking status and plasma levels of three proteins, C9, C1-inhibitor (C1-INH) and alpha 1-protease inhibitor (alpha 1-PI) were determined for 49 male cigarette smokers and 49 age-matched nonsmokers (mean age = 32.2 years). The mean number of cigarettes smoked was 28.7 per day while the cumulative consumption was only 18.1 pack-years. Plasma levels of all three proteins were significantly higher in the smokers than nonsmokers. Plasma C9 and alpha 1-PI concentrations correlated with cumulative cigarette consumption and plasma nicotine concentrations. While C1-INH concentration did not correlate with either cumulative cigarette consumption or plasma nicotine concentration, it correlated significantly with serum thiocyanate concentration. No consistent correlation was found between plasma concentration of these proteins and parameters of pulmonary function. 相似文献

The present study was designed to determine the specific physiological effects of two experimental conditions, smoking and mock smoking (puffing on an unlit cigarette), with smokers and nonsmokers. Two groups (smokers versus nonsmokers) with nine subjects each (five females, four males) participated in the present study. Physiological measures included alveolar carbon monoxide (COa) levels, skin resistance, heart rate, and finger temperature across a standard session sequence. The results of the COa assessment indicated increments only in the smoking condition. Multivariate analyses of variance (MANOVA) across skin conductance, heart rate, and hand temperature were initially performed, followed by univariate analyses of variance (ANOVA) for each physiological measure. Post hoc analyses were performed using orthogonal polynomial trend analyses. A number of significant differences were found. Discussion focuses on the need for experimental controls related to cigarette smoking in psychophysiological research in general, and in hand temperature biofeedback training in particular. 相似文献

In habitual smokers salivary cortisol responses to cigarette smoking were investigated. In the first study, 31 adults assigned to two experimental groups smoked either one or two cigarettes of their preferred brand. Mean salivary cortisol levels were significantly elevated after smoking of two cigarettes. In the second study, 10 smokers and 10 nonsmokers provided saliva samples at 20 min intervals over a 12-hr period. While environmental stimuli were paralleled in both groups overall cortisol output was significantly elevated in the smokers. These data suggest that 'normal' cigarette smoking can increase free cortisol levels. 相似文献

To study the effects of smoking on wound healing, the authors retrospectively analyzed the records of 132 patients (121 women and 11 men) who had undergone abdominoplasty in the previous 5 years. All patients had received a full abdominoplasty, with large mobilization up to the ribs and a belly transposition. Patients were excluded from the study if they had arteriosclerosis, diabetes mellitus, or other systemic diseases, and if they had received a simple pannus resection without a belly transposition.The following study parameters were taken for analysis: age at the time of operation, body mass index, preoperative weight loss, amount of resection, and smoking habits indicated by the patients preoperatively. Smokers were interviewed by telephone postoperatively concerning their perioperative smoking habits. Wound healing problems were registered when medical intervention was necessary, such as débridement, treatment for infection, lavage after fat necrosis, or a secondary skin closure after skin slough. Hematoma and seroma were not considered to be wound healing problems and were registered separately.Among the 132 patients, 53.8 percent admitted to smoking and 46.2 percent reported being nonsmokers. No significant difference was seen between smokers and nonsmokers concerning age or body mass index. Smokers reported consuming, on average, 18.4 cigarettes per day. The rate of wound problems and wound dehiscence showed a statistical difference between smokers and nonsmokers (p < 0.01); 47.9 percent of the smokers showed wound healing problems before hospital discharge versus 14.8 percent of the nonsmokers. The patients had been asked to quit smoking 2 weeks before the operation through 2 weeks postoperatively. The retrospective telephone inquiry found that just 14.7 percent stopped smoking preoperatively and only 41.2 percent quit temporarily after the operation.Smokers should be informed about their possible higher risk of wound healing problems. Because it seems impossible to turn smokers into nonsmokers, the authors continue to perform abdominoplasties in smokers. During the operation, they try to mobilize and resect less tissue and to immobilize patients for the critical first 3 postoperative days to prevent them from smoking. 相似文献

Carboxyhaemoglobin and plasma thiocyanate concentrations were found to be significantly correlated with self-reported daily cigarette consumption in 360 smokers (r = 0.416 and 0.412 respectively; p less than 0.001). The extent to which inhalation patterns affected the intake of cigarette smoke constituents was determined from the partial correlation between carboxyhaemoglobin and plasma thiocyanate concentrations after the number of cigarettes smoke per day had been allowed for (r = 0.48). Thus 23% of the variation in carboxyhaemoglobin and thiocyanate concentrations was accounted for by the was a cigarette was smoked and a further 21% by the number smoked a day. Furthermore, the relation between carboxyhaemoglobin or plasma thiocyanate and daily cigarette consumption was not linear but reached an asymptote at consumption rates above 25 cigarettes a day. These results suggest that by itself daily cigarette consumption will not identify those smokers most at risk and will also underestimate and dose-response relationship between smoking and selected diseases. 相似文献

Effect of smoking on complications in patients undergoing free TRAM flap breast reconstruction 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

Free pedicled transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous (TRAM) flap breast reconstruction is often advocated as the procedure of choice for autogenous tissue breast reconstruction in high-risk patients, such as smokers. However, whether use of the free TRAM flap is a desirable option for breast reconstruction in smokers is still unclear. All patients undergoing breast reconstruction with free TRAM flaps at our institution between February of 1989 and May of 1998 were reviewed. Patients were classified as smokers, former smokers (patients who had stopped smoking at least 4 weeks before surgery), and nonsmokers. Flap and donor-site complications in the three groups were compared. Information on demographic characteristics, body mass index, and comorbid medical conditions was used to perform multivariate statistical analysis. A total of 936 breast reconstructions with free TRAM flaps were performed in 718 patients (80.9 percent immediate; 23.3 percent bilateral). There were 478 nonsmokers, 150 former smokers, and 90 smokers. Flap complications occurred in 222 (23.7 percent) of 936 flaps. Smokers had a higher incidence of mastectomy flap necrosis than nonsmokers (18.9 percent versus 9.0 percent; p = 0.005). Smokers who underwent immediate reconstruction had a significantly higher incidence of mastectomy skin flap necrosis than did smokers who underwent delayed reconstruction (21.7 percent versus 0 percent; p = 0.039). Donor-site complications occurred in 106 (14.8 percent) of 718 patients. Donor-site complications were more common in smokers than in former smokers (25.6 percent versus 10.0 percent; p = 0.001) or nonsmokers (25.6 percent versus 14.2 percent; p = 0.007). Compared with nonsmokers, smokers had significantly higher rates of abdominal flap necrosis (4.4 percent versus 0.8 percent; p = 0.025) and hernia (6.7 percent versus 2.1 percent; p = 0.016). No significant difference in complication rates was noted between former smokers and nonsmokers. Among smokers, patients with a smoking history of greater than 10 pack-years had a significantly higher overall complication rate compared with patients with a smoking history of 10 or fewer pack-years (55.8 percent versus 23.8 percent; p = 0.049). In summary, free TRAM flap breast reconstruction in smokers was not associated with a significant increase in the rates of vessel thrombosis, flap loss, or fat necrosis compared with rates in nonsmokers. However, smokers were at significantly higher risk for mastectomy skin flap necrosis, abdominal flap necrosis, and hernia compared with nonsmokers. Patients with a smoking history of greater than 10 pack-years were at especially high risk for perioperative complications, suggesting that this should be considered a relative contraindication for free TRAM flap breast reconstruction. Smoking-related complications were significantly reduced when the reconstruction was delayed or when the patient stopped smoking at least 4 weeks before surgery. 相似文献

The change in specific airway conductance produced by smoking a cigarette under standard conditions was measured in 91 heavy smokers. Subsequently 19 of the most reactive subjects smoked two cigarettes with different filters and another containing cigar tobacco. The results indicated that reactivity to cigarette smoke was reduced significantly by increasing the retention efficiency of the filter and that reactivity to inhaled cigar-tobacco smoke was no less than that to cigarette smoke. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to describe anthropometric, clinical, socio-demographic characteristics and lifestyle habits of pregnant smokers in comparison to pregnant nonsmokers. During years 1999-2003, 1,435 pregnant smokers and 4,772 pregnant nonsmokers were interviewed after delivery with a questionnaire. They were recorded clinical, anthropometric and socio-demographic data, smoking status, labor outcome, maternal and fetal hemoglobin concentrations for each patient. The two groups were comparable in anthropometric and clinical characteristics, duration of pregnancy and mode of delivery, except for birth weights, which were significantly lower in newborns of smokers. Maternal hemoglobin concentrations were significantly lower in smokers, but fetal hemoglobin concentrations were significantly higher in babies of smokers. The proportion of pregnant women who smoked during pregnancy was higher among urban women, among women with lower educational level and among unemployed subjects in comparison with nonsmokers. The pregnant women who smoked during pregnancy were more often caffeine and alcohol consumers. To further reduce smoking during pregnancy it is important to continue to promote smoking cessation among teenagers. 相似文献

Association between cutaneous occlusive vascular disease, cigarette smoking, and skin slough after rhytidectomy 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
This prospective study attempted to determine if nonreversible occlusive vascular changes in the skin contribute to skin slough after rhytidectomy. The dermal microvasculature from 83 consecutive rhytidectomies was evaluated for intimal proliferation and/or hyalin sclerosis. Occlusive vascular disease increased progressively with age in all patients, but smokers and ex-smokers had significantly greater involvement than nonsmokers at any given age (p = 0.03). Severe occlusive vascular disease and skin slough were associated (p = 0.02), and there was a strong trend toward an association between active smoking and skin slough (p = 0.06). Among smokers, there was a significant relationship between skin slough and failure to abstain from smoking postoperatively (p = 0.006). We conclude that with aging, nonreversible occlusive changes develop in the dermal microvasculature. These changes appear to be accelerated by cigarette smoking. Our data, however, show that these nonreversible occlusive vascular changes by themselves do not completely account for the occurrence of skin slough after rhytidectomy. 相似文献

Background
Little is known about the association between cigarette smoking and asthma severity. We assessed smoking as a determinant of disease severity and control in a cohort of clinic-referred allergic subjects who developed new onset asthma.Methods
Allergic rhinitis subjects with no asthma (n = 371) were followed-up for 10 years and routinely examined for asthma diagnosis. In those who developed asthma (n = 152), clinical severity and levels of asthma control were determined. Among these subjects, 74 (48.7%) were current smokers, 17 (11.2%) former smokers, and 61 (40.1%) never smokers.Results
When comparing current or past smokers to never smokers they had a higher risk of severe asthma in the univariate analysis, which became non-significant in the multivariate analysis. On the other hand, the categories of pack-years were significantly related to severe asthma in a dose response relationship in both the univariate and multivariate analysis: compared to 0 pack years, those who smoked 1-10 pack-years had an OR(95% CI) of 1.47(0.46-4.68), those who smoked 11-20 pack-years had an OR of 2.85(1.09-7.46) and those who smoked more than 20 pack-years had an OR of 5.59(1.44-21.67) to develop more severe asthma. Smokers with asthma were also more likely to have uncontrolled disease. A significant dose-response relationship was observed for pack-years and uncontrolled asthma. Compared to 0 pack years, those who smoked 1-10 pack-years had an OR of 5.51(1.73-17.54) and those who smoked more than 10 pack-years had an OR of 13.38(4.57-39.19) to have uncontrolled asthma.Conclusions
The current findings support the hypothesis that cigarette smoking is an important predictor of asthma severity and poor asthma control. 相似文献12.

The present report attempts to help clarify the causal or consequent relation between frequently reported high rates of delay discounting (DD) associated with cigarette-smoking status in adults. Delay-discount functions of adolescent smokers and young-adult smokers and nonsmokers from two earlier studies [Reynolds, B., Karraker, K., Horn, K., Richards, J.B., 2003. Delay and probability discounting as related to different stages of adolescent smoking and non-smoking. Behav. Process. 64, 333-344; Reynolds, B., Richards, J.B., Horn, K., Karraker, K., 2004. Delay discounting and probability discounting as related to cigarette smoking status in adults. Behav. Process. 65, 35-42] were cross-sectionally compared. If a high rate of DD is a predisposing factor to future smoking status, adolescent and young-adult smokers were expected to have similar rates of DD, but both groups were expected to have higher rates of discounting than young-adult nonsmokers. Alternatively, if a high rate of cigarette consumption over an extended period is related to increases in DD, young-adult smokers were expected to discount more than adolescent smokers and young-adult nonsmokers. Results supported the hypothesis that a high rate of cigarette consumption is related to higher rates of DD, rather than the alternative hypothesis that smokers are predisposed with higher rates of DD. Also, after combining adolescent and young-adult smokers, self-reported number of cigarettes consumed per day was positively correlated with rate of DD; however, reported length of smoking history was not correlated with DD. Possible neurological mechanisms leading to increased discounting are discussed. 相似文献

Cigarette smoking predisposes to the development of multiple diseases involving oxidative damage. We measured a range of oxidative damage biomarkers to understand which differ between smokers and nonsmokers and if the levels of these biomarkers change further during the act of smoking itself. Despite overnight abstinence from smoking, smokers had higher levels of plasma total and esterified F(2)-isoprostanes, hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid products (HETEs), F(4)-neuroprostanes, 7-ketocholesterol, and 24- and 27-hydroxycholesterol. Levels of urinary F(2)-isoprostanes, HETEs, and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine were also increased compared with age-matched nonsmokers. Several biomarkers (plasma free F(2)-isoprostanes, allantoin, and 7β-hydroxycholesterol and urinary F(2)-isoprostane metabolites) were not elevated. The smokers were then asked to smoke a cigarette; this acute smoking elevated plasma and urinary F(2)-isoprostanes, plasma allantoin, and certain cholesterol oxidation products compared to presmoking levels, but not plasma HETEs or urinary 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine. Smokers showed differences in plasma fatty acid composition. Our findings confirm that certain oxidative damage biomarkers are elevated in smokers even after a period of abstinence from smoking, whereas these plus some others are elevated after acute smoking. Thus, different biomarkers do not measure identical aspects of oxidative stress. 相似文献

Male volunteers for mass radiography examination, aged 40 or more, were questioned about their sputum production, smoking habits, and, when applicable, their method of smoking cigarettes.Of 5,438 cigarette smokers 460 (8·4%) smoked their cigarettes without removing the cigarette from the mouth between puffs (“drooping” cigarette smokers) whereas the rest smoked in the normal manner.Persons who admitted to producing sputum from their chests on most days of the year or on most days for at least three months of the year for a minimum of two years were classified as chronic bronchitics in the absence of other causative disease.The rate of chronic bronchitis among the “drooping” cigarette smokers (41·5%) was considerably greater than that among those smoking cigarettes in the normal manner (33·6%). The same pattern was maintained when age and cigarette consumption were standardized, though “drooping” cigarette smokers had a slight bias towards plain as distinct from filter cigarettes and towards a lower social class this was not sufficient to account for the excess of chronic bronchitis among those using this method of smoking. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To estimate the extent to which cigarette smokers who switch to cigars or pipes alter their risk of dying of three-smoking related diseases-lung cancer, ischaemic heart disease, and chronic obstructive lung disease. DESIGN: A prospective study of 21520 men aged 35-64 years when recruited in 1975-82 with detailed history of smoking and measurement of carboxyhaemoglobin. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Notification of deaths (to 1993) classified by cause. RESULTS: Pipe and cigar smokers who had switched from cigarettes over 20 years before entry to the study smoked less tobacco than cigarette smokers (8.1 g/day v 20 g/day), but they had the same consumption as pipe and cigar smokers who had never smoked cigarettes (8.1 g) and had higher carboxyhaemoglobin saturations (1.2% v 1.0%, P < 0.001), indicating that they inhaled tobacco smoke to a greater extent. They had a 51% higher risk of dying of the three smoking related diseases than pipe or cigar smokers who had never smoked cigarettes (relative risk 1.51; 95% confidence interval 0.96 to 2.38), a 68% higher risk than lifelong non-smokers (1.68; 1.16 to 2.45), a 57% higher risk than former cigarette smokers who gave up smoking over 20 years before entry (1.57; 1.04 to 2.38), and a 46% lower risk than continuing cigarette smokers (0.54; 0.38 to 0.77). CONCLUSION: Cigarette smokers who have difficulty in giving up smoking altogether are better off changing to cigars or pipes than continuing to smoke cigarettes. Much of the effect is due to the reduction in the quantity of tobacco smoked, and some is due to inhaling less. Men who switch do not, however, achieve the lower risk of pipe and cigar smokers who have never smoked cigarettes. All pipe and cigar smokers have a greater risk of lung cancer than lifelong non-smokers or former smokers. 相似文献

Risk factors for late fetal death and early neonatal mortality were examined in a population based prospective study. Practically all Swedish births between 1983 and 1985 were included, 281,808 births in all. The overall rates of late fetal death and early neonatal mortality were 3.5 and 3.1 per 1000, respectively. About 30% of the pregnant women were recorded as being daily smokers. Logistic regression analyses showed significant relative risks for late fetal death for high maternal age (1.4), nulliparity (1.4), multiparity (greater than or equal to 2) (1.3), smoking (1.4), and multiple births (2.8). Significant relative risks for early neonatal mortality were found for multiple births (4.9) and smoking (1.2). Smokers aged under 35 faced a relative risk of late fetal death ranging from 1.1 to 1.6, while the risk for late fetal death was doubled if the mothers were aged 35 years or more and smoked. In countries like Sweden, where maternal cigarette smoking is prevalent, smoking may be the most important preventable risk factor for late fetal death. 相似文献

The smoking habits of 1501 cigarette smokers attending 28 general practitioners in five group practices in London were assessed. Prevalence of smoking, daily cigarette consumption, and the use of cigars, untipped cigarettes, and hand-rolled cigarettes were lower in the women. After controlling for consumption the proportions of men and women who smoked every day were similar. Women who smoked 20 or more a day were similar to men in their self-reported inhaling habits and use of low-nicotine cigarettes. The results suggest that women differ from men in those aspects of smoking that are determined predominantly by social factors but that their smoking habits become similar when pharmacological motivation takes over. This apparently occurs when consumption reaches about 20 cigarettes a day, when smoking almost inevitably becomes a regular event and the sex differences disappear. 相似文献

After abstinence for at least 8 hours, 20 healthy habitual smokers smoked two unfiltered cigarettes during each of two 20-minute periods separated by 48 hours. They had taken one 0.32-g tablet of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) the night before the second period. The mean platelet aggregate ratios in venous blood taken immediately before and after each period of smoking were 0.79 and 0.70 respectively when ASA had not been taken beforehand and 0.89 and 0.91 when it had. The mean after smoking was significantly higher when ASA had been taken beforehand. In conjunction with the previous finding that in nonsmokers ASA prevented a lowering of the platelet aggregate ratio by experimental smoking without affecting the ratio before smoking, the data from the present study suggest that ASA abolishes both acute and longer-lasting effects of tobacco smoke on the platelet aggregate ratio in healthy habitual smokers. 相似文献

We examined how the influence of smoking on blood and urinary cadmium (Cd) concentrations was modified by the level of environmental
Cd. We measured blood and urinary Cd concentrations of 1134 men over 50 yr of age in three areas in Japan that were exposed
to different levels of environmental Cd. Analysis of variance was used to compare Cd concentrations in blood and urine of
smokers with those of nonsmokers living in the three areas. Correlation coefficients between the number of cigarets smoked
per day or smoking indices (the number of cigarets smoked per day multiplied by the number of years smoked) and blood and
urinary Cd concentrations were calculated. No significant difference in Cd concentrations between smokers and nonsmokers was
observed in areas where the average Cd concentration in blood was over approx 2.4 ng/g, 2.0 μg/L in urine, and 2.3 μg/g creatinine
in urine, respectively. Therefore, it was suggested that an influence of smoking on blood and urinary Cd concentrations was
not observed in areas exposed to relatively high levels of environmental Cd. 相似文献

Male mass radiography volunteers aged 40 or more were questioned about their sputum production and cigarette consumption in relation to type (filter or plain) smoked. Of 10,414 volunteers, 3,045 smoked filter cigarettes and 2,393 smoked plain cigarettes. The rate of persistent daily sputum of filter smokers (31·9%) was significantly lower than that of plain cigarette smokers (37·2%). A similar pattern was maintained when age and cigarette consumption were standardized. These figures are thought to understate the less injurious nature of filter cigarettes, since more than half of the filter smokers with persistent sputum developed this while previously smoking plain cigarettes.Whatever the reasons for the less injurious nature of filter cigarettes, it seems that cigarette smokers unable to stop smoking might suffer less from chronic bronchitis if they changed to filter cigarettes. 相似文献
