Smoking is a well-established risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Exposure to tobacco smoke is associated with an estimated 35,000 cardiovascular deaths per year in nonsmokers. In addition, the risk of CVD decreases with the cessation of exposure to smoking. Association of smoking with CVD has been well known for years; however, association of secondhand smoke with CVD has been a topic of great interest, especially for the past 2 decades. Multiple studies and articles have evaluated the impact of smoking ban on the incidence of AMI-related hospitalizations. In this article, we discuss the effect of smoking ban on the economy and on human health in general, as well as its potential effects on the prevalence of smoking.
吸烟是心血管疾病(CVD)和急性心肌梗死(AMI)的既定危险因素。据估计,每年有 3.5 万名不吸烟者因接触烟草烟雾而死亡。此外,随着接触吸烟的停止,CVD 的风险也会降低。吸烟与 CVD 的关联多年来已广为人知;然而,二手烟与 CVD 的关联一直是一个非常关注的话题,尤其是在过去的 20 年里。多项研究和文章评估了禁烟对 AMI 相关住院率的影响。在本文中,我们讨论了禁烟对经济和人类健康的总体影响,以及它对吸烟流行率的潜在影响。
