Abstract

2. EFFECT OF CHEWING TOBACCO ON PULMONARY FUNCTIONS IN BIKANER CITY POPULATION

Devendra Kumar, B.K. Binawara, Abhishek Acharya, Bharti Maan

ABSTRACT

Background & objective: Smokeless tobacco use (SLT) has been increased rapidly throughout the world, especially among adolescent boys and young men by considering it as safe alternatives of smoking. Because of vigorous efforts toward increasing awareness of the adverse effects of tobacco, smoking has been declined and paradoxically the use of SLT has been greatly increased. This study attempts to find out whether ‘chewing tobacco’ causes any adverse effects on the lungs by using pulmonary function tests (PFTs). Material & Methods: The present study has been conducted on the population of Bikaner city (Rajasthan) aged between eighteen years to fifty five years. Each group (study & control) was further sub-divided on the basis of age in two sub-groups, i.e. group I (18-35 years) and group II (36-55years) comprising twenty five subjects each. All the cases were evaluated for Physical parameters- Height, weight, body mass index, heart rate & blood pressure. Spirometry was done using computerized spirometer. Results: The mean values of systolic blood pressure in chewing tobacco non-users and users were 121.4±2.859 & 122.0±2.236 in group I, 124.8±3.109 & 125.3±1.815 in group II and the difference of mean values were statistically non-significant (p=0.4442, p=0.5082 in group I & II respectively). The mean values of diastolic blood pressure in chewing tobacco non-users & users were 80.0±0.115 & 80.32±0.748 in group I, 81.28±1.514 & 81.68±1.108 in group II and the difference of mean values was statistically non-significant (p=0.097, p=0.2918 in group I & II respectively). The difference in the mean value of FVC, FEV1, FEF25-75% and PEFR is highly significant (p value <0.0001***, <0.0001***, <0.0001*** and <0.0001*** respectively) in both groups I & II. But the difference of the mean value of FEV1/FVC is non-significant (p=0.3065 NS & p=0.7023 NS) in both groups I & II respectively. Conclusion: The present study shows that chewing tobacco has the deleterious effect on lung functions. Awareness campaign among youths regarding the deleterious effect of tobacco may lower the trend of using chewing tobacco products.
