Smoking is a risk factor for a number of pulmonary infections, probably because of its adverse effects on respiratory defenses. It is associated with increased morbidity and mortality from pneumonia and influenza, as well as more days lost from work from lesser respiratory infections. Patients who smoke need to be informed about their increased risk of respiratory infections and of the benefits of both being vaccinated and stopping smoking.
吸烟是多种肺部感染的危险因素,这可能是因为它对呼吸道防御功能有不良影响。吸烟与肺炎和流感导致的发病率和死亡率增加相关,也与因较轻的呼吸道感染导致的更多工作日损失相关。需要告知吸烟患者他们呼吸道感染风险增加的情况,以及接种疫苗和戒烟的益处。
