Objective: To study the impact of shisha smoking on the extent of coronary artery disease. Methods: Patients who underwent coronary angiography were included in this observational cohort study and were divided to four groups according to the smoking pattern: shisha smokers, cigarettes smokers, mixed smokers (shisha and cigarettes) and non-smokers. Coronary angiography was done and the severity of coronary artery disease was defined according to Duke Jeopardy Score (DJ). Results: The study comprised of 287 consecutive patients; 22% were shisha smokers, 35% cigarette smokers, 5% mixed smokers and 38% non-smokers. Significant elevation of systolic blood pressure (p=0.009) and heart rate (p<0.001) were observed among mixed smokers followed by shisha smokers, cigarettes smokers and non-smokers respectively. The mean value of DJ score was highest among shisha smokers than mixed smokers, cigarettes smokers and non-smokers respectively (p=0.012). We also compared DJ score in shisha smokers with CAD vs nonshisha smokers with CAD and we found that 71.43% of shisha smokers had an advanced DJ score (>6) which was statistically significant (p=0.008) where shisha smokers showed significantly higher resting pulse (p<0.001) and systolic blood pressure (p=0.001) compared to nonshisha smokers and mean DJ score was significantly higher among shisha smokers (6.961±3.238) vs non-shisha smokers (5.762±3.062) (p=0.004). Conclusion: Shisha smoking is associated with severe coronary artery disease that calls for the need to enroll them in tobacco cessation courses.

Koroner anjiyografi yapıldı ve koroner arter hastalığının ciddiyetini belirlemek için Duke Jeopardy skorlaması (DJS) kullanıldı. Bulgular: Ardışık 287 hastadan oluşan çalışmanın; %22'si nargile içenler, %35'i sigara içenler, %5'i karışık içenler ve %38'i sigara içmeyenlerdir. Sırasıyla; karışık içenler, nargile içenler, sigara içenler ve içmeyenlerin sistolik kan basıncı (p=0,009) ve kalp hızında (p<0,001) önemli yükselmeler gözlenmiştir. Ortalama DJ score nargile içenler arasında; sırasıyla karışık içenler, sigara içenler ve içmeyenlerden daha yüksektir (p=0,012). Ayrıca, KAH'lı nargile içen hastaların DJ score'u ile nargile içmeyen KAH'lı hastaların scorlarını karşılaştırdık ve nargile içenlerin %71,43'ünün içmeyenle-re göre istatistik anlamda (p=0,008) ileri DJ score'u (>6) vardı. Buna karşılık nargile içenler; nargile içmeyenlerle karşılaştırıldığında istirahat nabzı (p<0,001) ve sistolik kan basıncı (p=0,001) önemli derecede daha yüksekti; ortalama DJ score nargile içmeyenlere göre (5...
