Leptin and Blood Lipid Levels in Smokers and ex Smokers
Cigarette smoking is one of the major causes of mortality and morbidity involving respiratory and cardiovascular illness in developing and developed countries. The objective of this study is to determine the leptin and blood lipid levels in smokers and non smokers. 121 subjects between the ages of 15 to 45 years were included in the study.

متن کاملNicotine dependence, PTSD symptoms, and depression proneness among male and female smokers.
Several studies have linked posttraumatic stress disorder with heavy smoking. It is not known to what extent this association is specific, as opposed to being a function of a joint association of PTSD and heavy smoking with a third variable such as depression proneness. In a cross-sectional study of 157 current regular smokers, severity of nicotine dependence (but not cigarettes smoked per day)...
متن کاملCessation-related weight concern among homeless male and female smokers

In this study we examine cessation-related weight concern among the homeless, which hasn't been studied. Homeless males (n = 320) and females (n = 110) participating in a smoking cessation RCT in the Twin Cities, Minnesota from 2009 to 2011 completed sur...
متن کاملInverse associations between light-to-moderate alcohol intake and lipid-related indices in patients with diabetes
BACKGROUND Dyslipidemia is a common complication in patients with diabetes and is involved in being prone to cardiovascular disease. The risk of coronary artery disease is known to be lower in light-to-moderate drinkers than in abstainers. The aim of this study was to clarify whether and how alcohol drinking influences the lipid-related indices, good predictors for cardiovascular disease, such ...
متن کاملDNA methylation of lipid-related genes affects blood lipid levels.
BACKGROUND Epigenetic mechanisms might be involved in the regulation of interindividual lipid level variability and thus may contribute to the cardiovascular risk profile. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between genome-wide DNA methylation and blood lipid levels high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglycerides, and total cholester...
