The Smoking Paradox: Impact of Smoking on Recanalization in the Setting of Intra-Arterial Thrombolysis
BACKGROUND The smoking paradox refers to a better outcome in smokers eligible for thrombolytic treatment in myocardial infarction or ischemic stroke. Recent findings suggest that current smokers may present higher recanalization rates after intravenous (IV) thrombolysis with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA). We evaluated the impact of smoking in a consecutive series of patients ...
متن کاملSmoking-thrombolysis paradox: recanalization and reperfusion rates after intravenous tissue plasminogen activator in smokers with ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The so-called smoking-thrombolysis paradox of an improved outcome after thrombolysis was first described in smokers with myocardial infarction. We investigated whether reperfusion rates and clinical outcome differ between smokers and nonsmokers with ischemic stroke after intravenous tissue plasminogen activator. METHODS Consecutive acute ischemic stroke patients, who ha...
متن کاملSmoking Interaction with Clopidogrel; Another Smoker's Paradox?
Exposure to cigarette smoke is an established risk factor for coronary heart disease in both Western and Asian countries. The multivariate relative risk of coronary heart disease mortality for current smokers was 1.8-3.7 compared to nonsmokers. Poor prognosis in smokers results from: 1) induction of hypercoagulability due to increased platelet activation, dyslipidemia, and endothelial dysfuncti...
متن کاملSmoking-Thrombolysis Relationship Depends on Ischemic Stroke Subtype.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The relationship between smoking and the outcome in patients received thrombolysis is undetermined. The outcome could be influenced by different stroke subtypes. This study aimed to explore whether smoking had any impact on the outcome in patients with stroke of different subtypes who received intravenous thrombolysis. METHODS All patients who received intravenous throm...
متن کاملHyperplastic Polyposis and the smoking paradox in females
Background Smoking has consistently been associated with the development of polyps in the colorectum. However the association between smoking and cancer of the colorectum is less than consistent, a phenomenon known as “the smoking paradox”. Recently, it has been demonstrated that the link between smoking and polyps is strongest in hyperplastic polyps, and in the subset of cancers which develop ...
