  • Kajenje in razvoj ateroskleroze = Smoking and the development of atherosclerosis
    Zorko, Tatjana
    Smoking is a well known cardiovascular risk factor for the developoment of atherosclerosis and in particular coronary heart disease and peripheral vascular disease. In this paper the adverse effects ... of smoking are described: Increased plasma fibrinogen, decreased erythrocyte distensibility, increased plasma and blood viscosity, increased platelet aggregability, increased plasminigen activator inhibitor levels, vasoconstriction of the coronary bed, reduced fibrillation treshold, increased triglycerides, reduced HDL cholesterol, and increased production of superoxide by phagocytes. In cigarette smoke there are, apart from nicotine, also carbon monoxide, tar and noxious gases. The therapy for nicotine addiction and clinical studies on nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) are described. Clinical trials of NTR in patients with underlying, stable coronary disease suggest that nicotine does not increase cardiovascular risk. The risk of NRT for smokers, even for those with underlying cardiovascular disease, are small and are substantially outweighed by the potential benefits of smoking cessation.
