Among the overweight, obese, and morbidly obese volunteers, the findings suggest an increased frequency of smokers, linear with the increase in BMI/body weight. This relationship between BMI and smoking describes an U shape curve, similar to association between alcohol use and cardiovascular disease.

2024年6月1日 · For adults who currently smoke, were obese and physically inactive, the rate of dying from all-cause, CVD, and cancer was at least 231 % greater than for those who never smoked, were normal weight and physically active.

An interaction between smoking status and BMI on abdominal obesity was observed in women: overweight/obese heavy daily smokers were particularly vulnerable for abdominal obesity. This risk group should be targeted for cardiovascular disease prevention.

2015年9月3日 · We discuss the implications of nicotine-induced body weight suppression in obese smokers, nicotine’s effect on metabolic profile, and how nicotine reinforcement differs between obese and lean smokers.

2010年11月24日 · Smokers usually have a lower Body Mass Index (BMI) when compared to non-smokers. Such a relationship, however, has not been fully studied in obese and morbidly obese patients. The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between smoking and BMI among obese and morbidly obese subjects.

Results: Results showed that in both women and men, normal-weight smokers, relative to overweight or obese ex-smokers, had a higher risk of mortality from all causes combined, all cancers combined, lung cancer, cardiovascular and respiratory diseases.

Combining obesity with current smoking increased circulatory disease mortality by 6- to 11-fold for people aged less than 65 years, compared to normal weight, never smokers. Obese former smokers (less than 65 years) had notably lower risks.

2010年3月4日 · To the Editor: Mortality from adult obesity and from persistent smoking have already been reliably assessed in studies of tens of thousands of deaths. 1 – 4 A common measure of obesity is the...

Obese individuals spend more on both services and medication than daily smokers and heavy drinkers. For example, obese individuals spend approximately 36 percent more than the general baseline population on health services, compared with a 21 percent increase for daily smokers and a 14 percent increase for heavy drinkers.
