Research Abstract |
Previous epidemiological studies implied that smoking is associated with future risk of diabetes. Several but limited number of studies also reported that passive smoking increases the risk of diabetes. Although the association between smoking / exposure to cigarette and risk of diabetes is implied, the mechanism has not been fully studied in the previous studies. The current study is aiming to assess the association between positive / passive smoking and measures in glucose metabolism. Among men, the smoking status and frequency of smoking appears to be associated with several measures of glucose metabolism. Non-smoking women had higher risk of exposure to cigarette smoke from their husbands. It was implied that the exposure as well as positive smoking was associated with several measures in glucose metabolism among women.
