The Impact about Water Channel (Negril) Smoking on the Pulmonary Function Test in Comparison to Cigarette Smoking in Adult Men.

Abstract

Background:  Shisha (wp) smoking will be getting to be a widest type of tobacco use, also may be developing worldwide, particularly "around the youthful age class in the center east particularly Around school students, urban youth, and adolescent experts. There will be restricted information about the impacts for Shisha (wp) smoking.

Objectives: the object is to survey the impact from claiming Shisha (wp) smoking on pulmonary function test with respect to the amount and duration for smoking "around different group of male smokers: water channel smokers, cigarette smokers, and associate the result with control (never smoking).

Methods: the study is cross sectional and comparative. 300 male persons were enrolled in this ponder, divided in to three groups of smokers: 100 Shisha smokers, 100 tobacco smokers and 100 nonsmokers (control group), all the members were healthy matched for gender, they were chosen from irregular cafes over al Nasiriya city. Information was gathered through organized questionnaire Also pulmonary function test might have been performed by convenient Spiro lab iii spirometer, afterward putting on the member assent.

  Results: there might have been statistically significant values between the mean ages of the investigation Assemblies (p value<0. 05). Water channel smokers (34.3±10.79) smoke smokers (45.1±10.6), and nonsmokers (35.5±11.1). The exhibit study discovered that there might have been a huge decrease in the pulmonary function test parameters :”( FEV1), (FVC), (FEF25-75%) (PEF), (FEV1/FVC) and (MVV)”for those two groups from claiming smokers in comparison with never smoking group (p ≤ 0. 01). Lung function test impairments might have been extremely severe in the water channel smokers in comparison with cigarette smokers (p ≤ 0. 05). There were significant opposite correlations on all pulmonary function test (PFT) parameters, duration, number of Shisha smoked and total amount of Shisha smoking per week (P ≤   0.01). 

Conclusion: the outcomes starting with this study indicated that there might have been significant impact for WP smoking on the pulmonary function test (PFT) parameters, which were more extreme in comparing to the effects of cigarette smoking.
