Endothelial Dysfunction In Healthy Passive Smoker
Endothelial Dysfunction In Healthy Passive Smoker Badai Tiksnadi, M. Rizki Akbar, Augustine Purnomowati Cardiovascular Department, Padjadjaran University/ Hasan Sadikin General Hospital Bandung Introduction: The effect of passive smoking on the risk of coronary heart disease is controversial. Since endothelial dysfunction is an early feature of atherogenesis and occurs in young adult who actively smoke cigarettes, passive smoking might also be associated with endothelial damage. The objective of this study was to find endothelial dysfunction in passive smokers and the relationship between intensity and its correlation with duration of exposure to tobacco smoke.
