      Jangan biarkan keluarga anda menjadi perokok pasif (secondhand smoker)

akibat ada orang lain merokok di sekitarnya. Beranikan diri menegur kalau

ada orang lain merokok di dekat anak anda, seperti anda berani menegur

pengendara ngebut yang hampir menabrak anak anda.

Secondhand Smoke Associated With Psychiatric Distress, Illness


ScienceDaily (June 8, 2010) — Exposure to secondhand smoke appears to be

associated with psychological distress and the risk of future psychiatric

hospitalization among healthy adults, according to a report posted online

that will appear in the August print issue of Archives of General Psychiatry




"A growing body of literature has demonstrated the harmful physical health

effects of secondhand smoke exposure," the authors write as background

information in the article. "Given the highly prevalent exposure to

secondhand smoke -- in the United States, an estimated 60 percent of

American non-smokers had biological evidence of exposure to secondhand smoke

-- even a low level of risk may have a major public health impact."


Mark Hamer, Ph.D., of University College London, and colleagues studied 5

560 non-smoking adults (average age 49.8) and 2,595 smokers (average age 44

8) who did not have a history of mental illness and participated in the

Scottish Health Survey in 1998 or 2003. Participants were assessed with a

questionnaire about psychological distress, and admissions to psychiatric

hospitals were tracked over six years of follow-up. Exposure to secondhand

smoke among non-smokers was assessed using saliva levels of cotinine -- the

main product formed when nicotine is broken down by the body -- "a reliable

and valid circulating biochemical marker of nicotine exposure," the authors

write.


A total of 14.5 percent of the participants reported psychological distress.

Non-smokers with a high exposure to secondhand smoke (cotinine levels

between 0.70 and 15 micrograms per liter) had higher odds of psychological

distress when compared with those who had no detectable cotinine.


Over the six-year follow-up, 41 individuals were newly admitted to

psychiatric hospitals. Smokers and non-smokers with high exposure to

secondhand smoke were both more likely than non-smokers with low levels of

secondhand smoke exposure to be hospitalized for depression, schizophrenia,

delirium or other psychiatric conditions.


Animal data have suggested that tobacco may induce a negative mood, and some

human studies have also identified a potential association between smoking

and depression. "Taken together, therefore, our data are consistent with

other emerging evidence to suggest a causal role of nicotine exposure in

mental health," the authors write.


"To our knowledge, this is the first study to demonstrate a prospective 
association between objectively assessed secondhand smoke exposure and mental 
health in a representative sample of a general population," they conclude
