Cambodia has very high rates of tuberculosis and smoked tobacco use among adults. Efforts to control both tobacco use and tuberculosis in Cambodia need to be informed by nationally representative data. Our objective is to examine the relation between daily cigarette smoking and lifetime tuberculosis (TB) history in a national sample of adults in Cambodia.
In 2011, a multi-stage, cluster sample of 15,615 adults (ages 15 years and older) from all regions of Cambodia were administered the Global Adult Tobacco Survey by interviewers from the National Institute of Statistics of Cambodia.
Our findings include: 1) among daily smokers, a significant positive relation between TB and number of cigarettes smoked per day (OR = 1.70 [95% CI 1.01, 2.87]) and pack-years of smoking (OR = 1.53 [95% CI 1.05, 2.25]) 2) a non-significant 58% increase in odds of ever having being diagnosed with TB among men who smoked manufactured cigarettes (OR = 1.58 [95% CI 0.97, 2.58]).
In Cambodia, manufactured cigarette smoking was associated with lifetime TB infection and the association was most evident among the heaviest smokers (> 1 pack per day, > 30 pack years).
柬埔寨成年人的结核病发病率和吸烟率都非常高。柬埔寨控制烟草使用和结核病的工作需要以具有全国代表性的数据为依据。我们的目标是在柬埔寨全国成年人样本中研究每日吸烟与终生结核病（TB）病史之间的关系。
2011年，柬埔寨国家统计局的访员对来自柬埔寨所有地区的15615名成年人（15岁及以上）进行了多阶段整群抽样，并实施了全球成人烟草调查。
我们的研究结果包括：1）在每日吸烟者中，结核病与每日吸烟量（OR = 1.70 [95% CI 1.01, 2.87]）和吸烟包年数（OR = 1.53 [95% CI 1.05, 2.25]）之间存在显著正相关；2）吸机制卷烟的男性被诊断患有结核病的几率非显著增加58%（OR = 1.58 [95% CI 0.97, 2.58]）。
在柬埔寨，吸机制卷烟与终生结核感染有关，这种关联在吸烟量最大者（每天>1包，>30包年）中最为明显。
