Study the Relationship between the Nicotine and Lipid Profile with Some Hematology Parameters in Serum of Smoker and Non-Smoker Blood Samples

Abstract

The effect of cigarette smoking on lipid profile and CBC (Complete Blood Count) of blood was investigated in this study. Spectrophotometric methods were used to estimate the amounts of nicotine, cholesterol, triglycerides, and HDL-cholesterol. The findings revealed that cigarette smokers and the duration of smoking had significantly higher levels of nicotine and cholesterol when compared to non-smokers. The data also revealed differences in the contents of hematological parameters between smokers’ and non-smokers’ blood samples, with high counts of WBC, MCHC, HGB, and PLT clearly visible in the smokers’ samples. However, there was no discernible effect on RBC, MCV, or MCH counts in the trial. Smoker samples had high PLT values (243.8 ± 84.26), while non-smoker samples had lower PLT values (229.3 ± 30.07 on average).
