Abstract

The authors have analyzed the impact of smoking on the incidence and severity of cardiovascular complications in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease who had survived myocardial infarction. Smokers have lower values of the ratio of forced expiratory volume at the first second to the lung forced vital capacity (0.65 ± 0.08, p = 0.005). There was no any difference in the studied groups in lab findings including C-reactive protein, fibrinogen, ferritin, erythropoietin and natriuretic peptides. Smokers have more frequent attacks of unstable angina and stay longer in hospitals.
