Valsalva shift among smokers and nonsmokers.
Although it has been reported that smoking has deleterious effects on the middle ears of smokers, including their eustachian tubes, investigators have failed to find differences in the tympanometric characteristics of smokers and nonsmokers. In the present study, however, we found that the Valsalva-induced tympanometric peak pressure shifts of young smokers were less than those measured among y...
متن کاملOptimistic bias in adolescent and adult smokers and nonsmokers.
Optimistic biases regarding the risks of smoking were examined among 200 adolescents (aged 12-17) and 203 adults (aged 30-50). Strong majorities of adolescent and adult smokers and nonsmokers agreed that smoking is addictive and causes death for "most people" who smoke. However, for themselves personally, adolescent and adult smokers were more likely than nonsmokers to doubt that they would die...

متن کاملUltrastructure in Smokers and Nonsmokers
a resting state. 90-95% of the cells obtained by lavage were large mononuclear macrophages of which approximately 90% remained viable at the end of the experiment. Smokers yielded many more macrophages per lavage (mean 46.4 X 106 ±7.4) compared to the nonsmokers (mean 10.2 X 106 +2.3). The decline in viable organisms was the same in each group, indicating phagocytic competence of alveolar macro...
متن کاملHuman alveolar macrophage function: differences between smokers and nonsmokers.
Human alveolar macrophages and peripheral blood monocytes were obtained from smoking and nonsmoking normal volunteers. The macrophages and monocytes were incubated in vitro with bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The oxidative metabolic response of these cells was measured by superoxide anion production. Macrophages from smokers were suppressed in their superoxide anion response to LPS activat...
