Health effects of passive smoking. 3. Parental smoking and prevalence of respiratory symptoms and asthma in school age children

Abstract: Abstractthe early 1970s, 1-3 since when many epidemiological studies have reported on the Background -A systematic quantitative review of the evidence relating parental association of parental smoking and respiratory diseases throughout childhood. The US smoking to the prevalence of asthma and respiratory symptoms was conducted Environmental Protection Agency Review 4 which was essentially narrative concluded that amongst school age children. Methods -Sixty relevant studies were the evidence causally relating … Show more

“…Cohort studies have also shown increased risk of developing adult asthma from ETS (88), including occupational exposures (89). Among 3,914 nonsmoking adults followed 10 years, the relative risk for asthma onset from 10 years of working with a smoker was 1.45 (95% CI 1.21, 1.75) (85). A large survey of 4,197 never-smoking adults showed an elevated risk of physician-diagnosed asthma from any ETS exposure [OR 1.39 (95% CI 1.04-1.86)] but no increased risk of allergic rhinitis (90).…”

“…A recent meta-analysis concluded that studies showed an excess incidence of wheezing in smoking households, particularly in nonatopic children, suggesting a "wheezy bronchitis" pattern; however, in children with diagnosed asthma, parental smoking was associated with greater severity rather than incidence (78). A quantitative meta-analysis of studies up to April 1997 for 25 studies of asthma prevalence showed a pooled odds ratio (OR) for asthma of 1.21 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.10-1.34) if either parent smoked (85). Well-conducted panel studies are still needed to evaluate acute exposure-response relationships using repeated measures methods.…”

“…A exposição pré e pós-natal à fumaça ambiental do tabaco (FAT) constitui um fator determinante na morbidade respiratória e na redução prematura da função pulmonar em crianças [18][19][20] . Demonstrou-se que a exposição à FAT, tanto in utero quanto pós-natal, influencia a frequência dos sintomas respiratórios 21,22 , havendo uma relação dose-dependente entre a dose de FAT (um ou dois pais fumantes), os sintomas respiratórios e os índices espirométricos 18,19,23 .…”
