“…Smoking is known to cause increased fibrinogen concentrations and platelet aggregability, along with impaired fibrinolytic activity, decreased coronary flow reserve, and increased vasospasm. 19,20 Result of the Bogalusa Heart Study have showed that the extent of fatty-streak lesions in the coronary arteriesof young adults was higher in smokers than in nonsmokers. 21 The risk of CAD decreases after quitting smoking, and its benefit is correlated with amount smoked.…”

“…Wong et al (2005) associated current cigarette smoking (OR = 3.08; 95%CI = 1.47-6.47) with cardiovascular diseases using data pooled from the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study (N = 12,642; mean age, 60 years) and the Cardiovascular Health Study (N = 2824; mean age, 79 years). Recent research has indicated that cigarette smoking is related to abnormal peripheral and coronary vascular vasomotion (Morita et al, 2006). The results of another report showed that coronary vascular endothelial dysfunction was caused by chronic smoking in smokers without epicardial CAS and that coronary endothelial dysfunction may be reversible within 1 month after smoking cessation in healthy young smokers (Wilson et al, 1998).…”

“…32) Following smoking cessation, coronary endothelial vasomotor abnormality recovers in healthy young smokers, 33) although not in middle-aged smokers or long-term smokers. 30) In patients with variant angina, smoking cessation also improves short-term prognosis, 34) which may be brought on by coronary endothelium-mediated vasodilatation and vascular smooth muscle relaxation.…”
