Relationship between women's smoking and laryngeal disorders based on the urine cotinine test: results of a national population-based survey

Abstract: ObjectivesThere is a possibility of underestimation in the smoking rate surveyed by self-reported questionnaires. This study investigated the difference between the Korean female smoking rate as determined by self-reports and that determined by a biochemical test and elucidated the relationship between women's smoking and laryngeal disorders.DesignNationwide cross-sectional survey.Setting2008 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.Participants1849 women who completed the health survey, urinary … Show more

“…In the Republic of Korea, females tend to hide their health risk behaviors because of the social image that smoking women tend to be sexually promiscuous, which does not apply to smoking men. [31,32] When the difference in smoking rate between genders was evaluated using self-reporting and urine cotinine test, women hid smoking behaviors 6 times more than men. [33] These results support the possibility the health risk behaviors were underestimated for females in the health risk behavior survey and explained why the health risk behavior cluster was found only in males.…”

“…Consequently, it is important to fully understand the etiology of a benign laryngeal mucosal disorder and identify multiple risk factors of the disease in order to perform accurate diagnosis and treatment. Nevertheless, most studies that have evaluated the risk factors of laryngeal disorders have just tried to find individual risk factors using regression analysis [25,26,27,28,29], and only a few studies have explored the multiple risk factors of benign laryngeal mucosal disorders using machine learning [30].…”

“…[11,12] The difference result of the relationship between smoking and laryngeal disorders possible depend on the survey method used, based on the questionnaire survey or biochemical tests, and difference population and gender sample. [13] The early laryngeal disease symptom before dysphonia was vocal fatigue that can be measured by VHI. VHI is a useful tool in measuring functional outcome for voice disorders on non-symptomatic smokers, it assess not only the bio-psychosocial impact of voice disorders but also screening tool to distinguish between subjects with voice dysfunction or normal.…”
