Meta-analysis of the effects of smoking and smoking cessation on triglyceride levels
2023, Toxicology ReportsAn association of smoking with serum urate and gout: A health paradox
2018, Seminars in Arthritis and RheumatismCitation Excerpt :Additionally, more recent studies of the THIN study by the same group reported that men with gout were more likely to be ex-smokers and less likely to be current-smokers, while women with gout were more likely to be current smokers, although the statistical evidence was not reported [291,292]. The results of the SCHS and THIN study analyses reflects evidence that ex-smokers have higher serum urate compared to never-smokers and or current-smokers [50,52,72,81,102,103,111,118,192,244,257,258], and that ex-smoker prevalence is higher in subsets with higher serum urate [66,68,89,110,113,138,146,150,165,235,243,245,246,259]. Taken together these results suggest that risk of hyperuricaemia and gout may increase following smoking cessation.
Smoking Habits and Body Weight Over the Adult Lifespan in Postmenopausal Women
2017, American Journal of Preventive MedicineCitation Excerpt :However, among current smokers, body weight appears to vary by smoking intensity, with heavier smokers tending to weigh more than lighter smokers.4,7,8,10–18 Moreover, numerous studies have reported either a J- or U-shaped relationship between smoking intensity and body weight.3–5,7,15,19,20 Although it is known that smokers who quit tend to gain weight, the magnitude of weight gain and its time course in former smokers versus that in continuing and never smokers into later adulthood is unclear.6,13,19,21–30
