“…Recent global estimates report that worldwide 40–70% of children are exposed to tobacco smoke [6,19]. Further, the burden of antenatal exposure may be underestimated as smoking during pregnancy is often underreported [20,21].…”

“…Environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) exposure is a well-recognized risk factor for acute and chronic respiratory illness [4]; tobacco use is the leading global cause of preventable death [5]. Despite worldwide initiatives to reduce tobacco smoking, it is estimated that up to 40% of children are still exposed to tobacco smoke [6] and approximately 6 million deaths are tobacco related with half a trillion dollars in tobacco-related economic damage [5]. While the incidence of smoking is decreasing in certain regions [7], it is increasing in others, particularly in LMICs and especially amongst women [5,8].…”

Introduction: Childhood respiratory illness is a major cause of morbidity and mortality particularly in low and middle-income countries. Environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) exposure is a recognised risk factor for both acute and chronic respiratory illness.Areas covered: The aim of this paper was to review the epidemiology of ETS exposure and impact on respiratory health in children. We conducted a search of 3 electronic databases of publications on ETS and childhood respiratory illness from 1990–2015. Key findings were that up to 70% of children are exposed to ETS globally, but under-reporting may mask the true prevalence. Maternal smoking and ETS exposure influence infant lung development and are associated with childhood upper and lower respiratory tract infection, wheezing or asthma. Further, exposure to ETS is associated with more severe respiratory disease. ETS exposure reduces lung function early in life, establishing an increased lifelong risk of poor lung health.Expert commentary: Urgent and effective strategies are needed to decrease ETS exposure in young children to improve child and long-term lung health in adults especially in low and middle income countries where ETS exposure is increasing.

“…[19] Comprehensive legislation has been prepared within the scope of the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control prepared by the World Health Organization to protect individuals against the hazardous effects of second hand smoking. [20][21][22] In 2015, Navas-Acien et al [23] conducted a cross-sectional study on the ban on smoking in governmental buildings in Turkey and recommended that indoor areas, places near entrances, as well as patios and gardens, should be included in the scope of the smoking ban to prevent second-hand smoking.…”

ÖZAmaç: Bu çalışmada sigara yasağının kronik obstrüktif akciğer hastalığını önlemede etkili olup olmadığı araştırıldı. Bul gu lar: Sigara yasağı öncesi ve sonrasında hastaların sigara içme durumunda istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık vardı (p= 0.002; p<0.01). Sigara içenlerin oranı yıldan yıla azalırken sigarayı bırakanların oranında artış vardı. Sigara yasağı öncesinde bir yılda geçirilen atak sayısı sigara yasağı sonrası bir yılda geçirilen atak sayısından yüksek olmakla beraber farklılık istatistiksel olarak anlamlılığa yakın idi (p=0.061; p>0.05).Sonuç: Çalışmamız sigara yasağının kronik obstrüktif akciğer hastalığı olan hastaların sayısını ve atak sayısını azalttığını gösterdi. Bu nedenle, tütün ürünlerinin kullanımının yasaklanmasının bu hastalığın önlenmesine yönelik stratejinin önemli bir parçası olduğunu önermekteyiz.Anahtar sözcükler: Kronik obstrüktif akciğer hastalığı; sigara yasağı; Türkiye. ABSTRACTBackground: This study aims to investigate whether smoking ban is effective in preventing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
