    Area of Science:

    • Cardiovascular Science
    • Public Health
    • Toxicology

    Context:

    • Smoking is a major global health concern.
    • Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a leading cause of mortality worldwide.
    • Understanding the link between smoking and CVDs is crucial for prevention and treatment.

    Purpose:

    • To review the scientific literature on the relationship between smoking and cardiovascular diseases.
    • To analyze the impact of tobacco smoke components on the cardiovascular system.
    • To highlight smoking as a significant risk factor for CVDs.

    Summary:

    • Epidemiological, pathological, and clinical studies demonstrate increased mortality from coronary heart diseases in smokers.
    • Smokers exhibit a higher frequency of atherosclerotic lesions across all systemic vessels.
