“…More recent research is either directed towards less serious effects of narghile [13,14], or towards the effects of narghile in association with other forms of tobacco use and not narghile exclusively [12-14]. More research is needed to investigate adverse health effects of narghile on the oral tissues particularly the potential carcinogenic effect.…”

Narghile (water pipe) smoking among university students in Jordan: prevalence, pattern and beliefs

et al. 2010

Background and objectivesNarghile is becoming the favorite form of tobacco use by youth globally. This problem has received more attention in recent years. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and pattern of narghile use among students in three public Jordanian universities; to assess their beliefs about narghile's adverse health consequences; and to evaluate their awareness of oral health and oral hygiene.MethodsThe study was a cross-sectional survey of university students. A self-administered, anonymous questionnaire was distributed randomly to university students in three public Jordanian universities during December, 2008. The questionnaire was designed to ask specific questions that are related to smoking in general, and to narghile smoking in specific. There were also questions about oral health awareness and oral hygiene practices.Results36.8% of the surveyed sample indicated they were smokers comprising 61.9% of the male students and 10.7% of the female students in the study sample. Cigarettes and narghile were the preferred smoking methods among male students (42%). On the other hand, female students preferred narghile only (53%). Parental smoking status but not their educational level was associated with the students smoking status. Smokers had also significantly poor dental attendance and poor oral hygiene habits.ConclusionThis study confirmed the spreading narghile epidemic among young people in Jordan like the neighboring countries of the Eastern Mediterranean region. Alarming signs were the poor oral health awareness among students particularly smokers.

Methods:In May 2015 we electronically searched the following databases with no date restrictions: MEDLINE, EMBASE and ISI the Web of Science using a detailed search strategy with no language restrictions. We also screened references lists of included studies. We also screened the references lists of the included studies. We included cohort, case-control and crosssectional studies, and excluded case reports, conference abstracts, editorials and reviews. We excluded studies not conducted in humans, assessing physiological outcomes, not distinguishing waterpipe tobacco smoking from other forms of smoking, and not reporting association measures. We assessed risk of bias for each included study and conducted meta-analyses for each of the outcomes of interest. Results:We identified 50 eligible studies. We found that waterpipe tobacco smoking was significantly associated with respiratory diseases (COPD odds ratio (OR)= 3.18, 95% CI= 1.25, 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 Conclusions:There is accumulating evidence about the association of waterpipe tobacco smoking with a growing number of health outcomes.
