Genome-wide association studies identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) cluster as a risk factor for nicotine dependency and COPD. We investigated whether SNPs in the nAChR cluster are associated with smoking habits and lung function decline, and if these potential associations are independent of each other. The SNPs rs569207, rs105173...

Tuberculosis is transmitted commonly by droplet nuclei and facilitated by weak immune system. Lowered immunity may be associated with cigarette smoking, tobacco chewing and alcohol consumption. The co-relationship between these all factors to TB should be explored. This study aims to detect the hidden household contacts (HC) cases early and to examine the relative contribution of tobacco and al...
Our aim was to study the association of smoking habits and environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) exposure with bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR). A random sample of 292 adults was examined using a structured interview, spirometry, skin prick tests, exhaled nitric oxide fraction (FeNO) and bronchial histamine challenge. A large majority of subjects with BHR were smokers or ex-smokers. Starting to ...

Previous studies have warned against the promoting effects of cigarette smoking on benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). In contrast, some have argued that smoking confers a protective effect regarding BPH, while others have observed an aggravated effect. Thus, we performed this meta-analysis to determine whether cigarette use is associated with BPH risk.To identify articles from observational st...
OBJECTIVE We examined whether maternal smoking and use of nicotine substitutes during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy increased the prevalence of congenital malformations in general and of certain congenital malformations in particular. METHODS In the Danish National Birth Cohort (1997-2003) we identified 76,768 pregnancies (and their subsequent singleton births); 20,603 were exposed to tobac...
