Abstract

Absorption of harmful and irritative components of cigarette smoke by nonsmokers may result in both acute and long-term health problems. Persons with asthma or coronary artery disease are at particularly high risk of developing problems. Children living with smokers are at increased risk of persistent middle ear effusions and lower respiratory tract infections. Nonsmokers married to smokers have an increased risk of lung cancer.
