“…Thus, our findings of signs of poorer oral hygiene in smokers compared to non-smokers, as reflected by plaque and calculus, were consistent with prior findings of suboptimal health-related behaviors in smokers. 28,29,30 In the present study, older age, less education, a high VPI, and diabetes were associated with higher clinically detectable gingival inflammation. When the model was adjusted for smoking status, VPI was the only variable that remained associated.…”

Older adults and smokers have decreased exercise capacity and are even less likely to exercise regularly (68). The combined effects of unhealthy behaviors such as smoking and insufficient physical activity are associated with greater likelihood of difficulty with activities of independent living in older adults (9, 10).…”

“…Neste estudo, assim como a literatura tem apontado, identificou-se que os jovens que fumam apresentam menor probabilidade de serem suficientemente ativos. Como aborda Mesquita et al 24 , este resultado pode ocorrer uma vez que, aqueles que possuem o hábito de fumar tendem a apresentar uma capacidade para a prática de atividade física menor do que os que nunca fumaram, possivelmente devido à baixa aptidão cardiorrespiratória destes indivíduos, dificultando a prática em diferentes intensidades. É relevante destacar ainda que em geral, os hábitos mais saudáveis de vida, como praticar AF e não fumar, tendem a se agregar nos mesmos indivíduos, observando que o oposto também é verdadeiro 25,26 .…”
