Abstract

Introduction: Despite the well documented relationship between lower airway diseases and smoking, there are limited data aboutsmoking and allergic rhinitis (AR). In this study, we aimed to document the smoking behaviour and environmental tobacco smoke(ETS) exposure of the patients with AR in comparison with patients with asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD)and healthy controls (HC).Materials and Methods: Demographics and disease characteristics were recorded from case files whereas smoking history, childhoodand current exposures to ETS, as well as the smoking behaviors were investigated by a self reported questionnaire.Results: A total of 937 subjects comprising patients with AR (n= 252), asthma (n= 249), COPD (n= 188) and HCs (n= 248) wereenrolled in the study. The rates of active smokers were 35% (HCs), 26% (COPD), 21% (AR), and 11% (asthma). Exposure to ETSwhile with friends was significantly higher among HCs and AR groups (p< 0.0001). The rate of willingness to quit smoking is high inAR patients (73%) but they did not determined about date of quiting.Conclusion: Our results showed that a significant number of patients with AR actively smoke and neither the patients with AR northe people in their surroundings were sufficiently aware of thehealth hazards of smoking with AR. It seems necessary to informpatients with about the health effects of smoking on all respiratorytract diseases.

Özet

Giriş: Sigaranın alt hava yolu hastalıkları ile ilişkisi iyi tanımlanmıştır. Fakat sık görülen ve önemli bir üst hava yolu hastalığı olan allerjik rinit (AR) ile ilişkisi konusunda sınırlı bilgi bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışma ile amacımız AR hastalarının sigara içme tutumları ve çevresel pasif sigara dumanı maruziyetlerini astım, kronik obstrüktif akciğer hastalığı (KOAH) gibi alt hava yolu hastalıklarıyla ve sağlıklı kontrollerle karşılaştırarak ortaya koymaktır. Materyal ve Metod: Bireylerin demografik özellikleri ve hastalık karakteristikleri dosyalardan kaydedildi. Sigara öyküleri, çocukluk çağı ve şimdiki pasif sigara dumanı maruziyetleri, sigara konusundaki tutumları araştırıcılar tarafından hazırlanan bir anket ile değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Çalışmaya toplam 937 hasta [AR (n= 252), astım (n= 249), KOAH (n= 188) ve sağlıklı kontrol (n= 248)] alındı. Aktif sigara içenlerin oranına gruplara göre bakıldığında sağlıklı kontrollerde %35, KOAH grubunda %26, AR'lılarda %21 ve astımlı hastalarda %11 idi. Arkadaşları ile birlikte iken pasif sigara duman maruziyeti sağlıklı kontrol ve AR’lı hasta gruplarında diğer iki gruba göre belirgin olarak daha fazlaydı (p< 0.0001). Astım ve KOAH’lılarla karşılaştırınca AR’lı hastaların çevresindekiler yanlarında sigara içmemeye daha az özen gösteriyordu ama AR’lı hastalar da bu konuda etraflarındakileri daha az uyarıyordu. AR’lı hastalar arasında sigarayı bırakmayı isteme oranı yüksekti (%73) fakat bu hastalardan hiç birisi kendisine sigarayı bırakma günü belirlememişti. Sonuç: AR'lı hastaların arasında hem aktif olarak sigara içme oranları yüksekti hem de etrafındaki kişiler sigaranın AR hastaları için zararlı olabileceğini düşünerek yanlarında sigara içmemeye özen göstermiyorlardı. Bu durum bize toplumun sigaranın sadece alt hava yolu hastalıklarının değil tüm hava yolu hastalıklarının seyrini kötü etkilediği konusunda bilgilendirilmesi gerektiğini göstermiştir.
