Association between smoking and all-cause mortality in Parkinson's disease

초록

We aimed to investigate the association between smoking status and all-cause mortality of Parkinson's disease (PD). Among the whole nationwide population data from Korea National Health Insurance Service, newly diagnosed PD was selected, and all-cause mortality was evaluated. The systematic review was performed through a literature search on the PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials databases. Among 26,080 individuals with PD, there was no significant association between smoking status and all-cause mortality in a nationwide cohort study (ex-smoker, HR 0.1.03, 95% CI 0.97-1.10; current smoker, HR 1.06, 95% CI 0.96-1.16). The systematic review, including six prospective cohort studies, also found a nonsignificant association. PD smokers tended to have fewer deaths from neurologic causes but were significantly more likely to die from smoking-related cancers such as lung cancer. We presented a nonsignificant association between smoking and mortality of PD, and cigarette smoking is not recommended in individuals with PD.
