Tobacco use Increases Susceptibility to Bacterial Infection |
Smoking
is a practice of inhaling few amounts of tobacco substances into the body which
passes through the respiratory tract thereby results in respiratory tract
infections never less this inhaling process absorbs the tobacco content in
blood stream. Scientifically smoking is referred to the inhalation and
exhalation of fumes from burning tobacco.
Tobacco
compromises the anti-bacterial persistence of leukocytes, embracing of
neutrophils, monocytes, T cells and B cells, providing a systematic
clarification for increased infection risk. Additionally epidemiological,
clinical and mechanistic research into this significant area is defensible.
Tobacco
smoke results in infections as well as disease such as Tuberculosis, Pneumonia,
Legionnaires diseases and bacterial vaginosis. Smoking is also associated with
HIV patients and the risk factor increases in cardiovascular diseases and
ischemic stroke.
When
it comes to HIV infections it includes Lymphoma, Opportunistic infections and
antiretroviral therapies.
These
antiviral drugs are one among antimicrobials including antibiotic, antifungal
and anti-parasitic drugs. They are distinguished from viricides which destroys
the virus particles either inside or outside the body.
Most
of the populated economy knows that smoking causes lung cancer but it results
in increased risk of age-related macular degeneration, blindness, diabetic
retinopathy and dry eye syndrome apart from its chronic infections.
Although
cigarette smoking has been related with increased human papilloma virus (HPV) revealing,
its impact on HPV DNA load is unknown.
Stay
awake and know more keep yourself updated on latest trends in the field of
microbiology and infectious diseases along with “Microbiology Meet 2018” scheduled on September 10-12, 2018,
Bucharest, Romania around the theme “Novel Advancements and Therapeutic
Acuities in Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases” stay close …stay
involved to re-emphasize your clinical and practical knowledge along with top
scientists and professionals.
