ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
This study investigates the relationship between smoking and blood parameters in the Iranian Kurdish population.METHOD:
The current study was conducted based on the recruitment phase of the Ravansar Non-Communicable Disease (RaNCD) cohort study.RESULTS:
Current smokers had higher levels of RBC count, HCT, HGB, MCV, MCH, MCHC, WBC count, and GR%, than in other groups significantly. Passive smokers had higher levels of PLT count and PCT statistically. The increasing exposure time of smoking positively affected WBC count, GR%, PLT count, PCT, and RDW in female passive smokers. In addition, heavy smokers, as well as participants with a higher duration time of smoking, had the same results for significantly lower levels of lymphocyte and monocyte and a higher level of RBC indices.CONCLUSION:
According to the present study, along with the current smokers, the intensity of smoking, as well as the duration time of the smoke, could have a positive correlation with blood parameters. Furthermore, passive smokers and specifically secondhand female smokers were more vulnerable to smoke.Palavras-chave
