TOBACCO KILLS ONE PERSON EVERY 4 SECONDS (1 ). Newer tobacco products contain chemicals similar to those in traditional tobacco products and are likewise harmful to health. Respiratory diseases are among the leading causes of death globally, and tobacco is a major risk factor (2). The millions of deaths caused by tobacco-related respiratory disease are distressing, but even more distressing is the tremendous suffering caused by these illnesses, the debilitating effects of which affect the quality of life of people of all ages, in all regions of the globe. 56.9 MILLION ANNUAL DEATHS 8 MILLION DEATHS caused by tobacco from all causes 1 MILLIONDEATHS due to second-hand smoke exposure #NoTobacco WHO | DON’T LET TOBACCO TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAYWHO | DON’T LET TOBACCO TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAY 32 MILLION DEATHS caused by tobacco every year 8 MILLION DEATHS due to second -hand smoke exposure 1 HOW DOES TOBACCO TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAY? WITH JUST A SINGLE BREATH, THE HUNDREDS OF TOXINS IN TOBACCO SMOKE BEGIN DAMAGING THE LUNGS (6 ). When tobacco smoke is inhaled, the structures that sweep mucus and dirt out of your airways are paralysed, allowing the poisonous substances in tobacco smoke to make their way into the lungs more easily. The harmful effects of tobacco smoke on the lungs are almost immediate (6 ). Tobacco smoke causes reduced lung function and breathlessness due to the swelling of airways and build-up of mucus in the lungs. The immediate respiratory symptoms are just part of the damage tobacco does to the lungs. TOBACCO EXPOSURE IS A THREAT TO LUNG HEALTH FOR EVERYONE – NOT JUST SMOKERS TOBACCO SMOKE CONTRIBUTES TO INDOOR AIR POLLUTION, WHICH IS A MAJOR THREAT TO LUNG HEALTH. EVERY YEAR, OVER 1 MILLION DEATHS GLOBALLY ARE CAUSED BY SECOND-HAND SMOKE (1 ). Second-hand smoke is smoke emitted from the burning end of a cigarette or from other smoked tobacco products, usually in combination with smoke exhaled by the smoker. Tobacco smoking and exposure to second-hand smoke are major risk factors for lung cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), tuberculosis (TB) and asthma. Before they even learn to walk, children may begin suffering the effects of exposure to tobacco smoke (3). Infants born to mothers who smoke, or to women who are exposed to second-hand smoke during pregnancy, are likely to suffer reduced lung growth and function (4). Chemicals found in tobacco smoke during critical stages of development in the womb have long-lasting, damaging effects on the lungs. Smokers’ children suffer reduced lung function, which continues to affect them in the form of chronic respiratory disorders in adulthood. Adolescents who smoke are more likely to suffer chronic respiratory disorders and risk permanently damaging their lungs. The lungs continue to grow well into adulthood, but inhaling the toxins found in tobacco smoke slows this process and causes potentially irreversible lung damage (5 ). TOBACCO CONTROL MUST BE A GLOBAL PRIORITY TOBACCO KILLS OVER 8 MILLION PEOPLE EVERY YEAR, DESPITE A STEADY REDUCTION IN TOBACCO USE GLOBALLY (1 ). Between 2000 and 2016, current tobacco smoking prevalence rates declined from 27% to 20%. However, the pace of action to reduce tobacco demand and related death and disease is lagging behind global and national commitments to reduce tobacco use by 30% by 2025 (7 ). If the trend continues, the world will achieve only a 22% reduction by 2025 (7 ).

CHILDHOOD ASTHMA IS IRREVERSIBLE AND CONTRIBUTES TO MISSED SCHOOL-DAYS, DISRUPTED SLEEP AND RESTRICTED PLAY. Asthma is a chronic disease of the air passages to the lungs, which causes inflammation and recurrent attacks of breathlessness and wheezing (20 ). WHO estimates that 235 million people currently suffer from asthma. Inhaling tobacco smoke is one of the major triggers for asthma to develop and/or worsen (20). In people living with asthma, tobacco smoking further restricts activity, contributes to work disability and increases the risk of severe asthma requiring emergency care. Around one in nine asthma deaths can be attributed to tobacco smoking (21). Patients with asthma can control their asthma more effectively if they quit tobacco. TUBERCULOSIS LUNG CANCER TB is the top infectious killer in the world. In 2017, 1.6 million people lost their lives because of TB, and 10 million people fell ill with the disease (8). It primarily affects the lungs, and causes infected people to cough up blood and experience severe chest pain (9 ). The bacterium that causes TB (M. tuberculosis) enters the body and establishes an infection. However, this infection does not necessarily develop into active disease – a state called latent TB infection. Latent TB may develop into active disease at any time, particularly when the immune system is weakened. About one quarter of the world’s population has latent TB, placing them at risk of developing the active disease (9 ). Smoking substantially increases the risk of TB and death from TB. More than 20% of global TB incidence may be attributable to tobacco (10 ). TOBACCO SMOKING MORE THAN DOUBLES THE RISK OF TRANSFORMING TB FROM A LATENT STATE TO THE ACTIVE DISEASE (11 ). Exposure to second-hand smoke also increases the risk of progression from latent TB infection to active disease. If the disease is not treated appropriately, people with TB can die from respiratory failure. Tuberculosis patients are more likely to achieve better treatment outcomes by quitting tobacco use. GLOBALLY, 1.8 MILLION DEATHS ARE CAUSED BY LUNG CANCER ANNUALLY (12 ). Tobacco smoking is the most common cause of lung cancer, causing roughly 1.2 million lung cancer deaths every year (12). Smokers are up to 22 times more likely to develop lung cancer in their lifetime, compared with non-smokers (13-18 ). Non-smokers exposed to second-hand smoke at home or in the workplace have a 30% higher risk of developing lung cancer (3, 19). After 10 years free of tobacco, the risk of lung cancer is reduced to about half that of a smoker (4 ). 2x higher risk for smokers asthma attack asthma normal 22x more likely for smokers CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a lung disease that causes episodes of breathlessness, coughing and mucus production. These episodes are seriously disabling; they can last from several days to several months, and sometimes result in death (22 ). In 2016, it was estimated that over 251 million people live with COPD (22). Tobacco smoking is the most important risk factor for COPD, causing swelling and rupturing of the air sacs in the lungs, which reduces the lung’s capacity to take in oxygen and expel carbon dioxide (23). It also causes the build-up of purulent mucus in the lungs, resulting in a painful cough and agonizing breathing difficulties (24). One in five smokers will develop COPD in their lifetime (25), and almost half of COPD deaths are attributable to smoking (21). Adults who were exposed to second-hand smoke during childhood, and had frequent infections of the lower respiratory tract as a result, are at risk of developing COPD. People who started smoking in their youth or adolescence are especially susceptible to developing COPD as a result of reduced lung growth and function (26). Most cases of COPD are preventable by avoidance or early cessation of tobacco smoking. Patients with COPD who stop smoking regain more lung function and suffer fewer long-term effects.

The best measure to prevent respiratory disease and improve lung health globally is to reduce tobacco use and exposure to tobacco smoke. The WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (WHO FCTC) provides a strong, concerted response to the global tobacco epidemic and its enormous health, social, environmental and economic costs (27). It also gives the Parties to the Convention the necessary foundation and framework – both legal and technical – to enact comprehensive, effective tobacco control measures covering all sectors of government. To help countries implement the WHO FCTC, WHO introduced the MPOWER technical package, which combines policy change with increased public awareness, in line with the key demand reduction measures of the Convention. Key strategies in this approach include creating smoke-free indoor public spaces, workplaces and public transport, banning tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship, significantly increasing taxes on tobacco products, requiring large pictorial health warnings on all tobacco products, supporting hard-hitting mass media campaigns, monitoring tobacco use and prevention policies, and offering tobacco users help to quit. Several organizations and networks, including the Global Alliance against Chronic Respiratory Diseases (GARD), contribute to WHO’s global work to prevent and control chronic respiratory diseases. GARD is a voluntary group of organizations, institutions and agencies that work together to assess needs, increase public awareness, advocate for action and formulate and promote policy to improve global lung health. IT’S NEVER TOO LATE TO QUIT Tobacco cessation saves lives and is a key element of the MPOWER measures, in line with Article 14 of the WHO FCTC. Quitting tobacco use has the potential to reverse some, but not all, of the damage done by tobacco smoke to the lungs. Quitting as soon as possible is therefore essential to prevent the onset of chronic lung disease, which is potentially irreversible once it has developed. Lung function improves within just two weeks of quitting tobacco use (4 ). Quitting smoking after a diagnosis of lung disease is associated with better treatment outcomes and improved quality of life. BRIEF ADVICE FOR TOBACCO CESSATION provided by health-care professionals as part of their routine practice is an essential intervention for prevention and management of lung diseases in primary care. Between 2007 and 2016, comprehensive tobacco cessation services were made available to about 28% of the world’s population across 17 countries. If they were adopted by all health-care providers, these interventions could reach a large number of tobacco users and encourage them to quit. Supporting TB patients’ efforts to quit tobacco is also important to the success of any TB control programme. Effective cessation strategies include the following: WHO | DON’T LET TOBACCO TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAYWHO | DON’T LET TOBACCO TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAY 98 Scannez-moi TOLL-FREE QUITLINES are convenient, population-based methods for giving tobacco users access to intensive behavioural counselling.

The threat to lung health posed by tobacco use and exposure to tobacco smoke makes action for tobacco control relevant to many different categories of disease. If the commitment expressed in the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals – to reduce premature mortality from noncommunicable diseases by one third by 2030 – is to be achieved, tobacco control must be made a priority. scan me REFERENCES Photo credits: p. 4 © Chris Black / p. 8 © Sanjit Das / pp. 9 and 10 Curt Carnemark.

LIFE IS FULL OF BREATHTAKING MOMENTS DON’T LET TOBACCO BE ONE OF THEM Lung health is essential to achieving overall health and well-being, and tobacco smoke affects the lung health of both smokers and non-smokers throughout the world. The threat to lung health posed by tobacco use and exposure to tobacco smoke makes action for tobacco control relevant to many different categories of disease. If the commitment expressed in the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals – to reduce premature mortality from noncommunicable diseases by one third by 2030 – is to be achieved, tobacco control must be made a priority. scan me REFERENCES Photo credits: p. 4 © Chris Black / p. 8 © Sanjit Das / pp. 9 and 10 Curt Carnemark.

لا المدخنين وحدهم كيف يحبس التبغ أنفاسك حرفيا؟ يجب أن تحظى مكافحة التبغ بالأولوية عالميا والُرضع الذين يولدون لأمهات يدخن، أو لنساء يتعرضن لدخان التبغ غير المباشر أثناء الحمل، من المحتمل أن يعانوا من انخفاض في نمو الرئة ووظائفها (4). وإذ تترك المواد الكيميائية التي ُتوَجد في دخان التبغ خلال مراحل النمو الحرجة في الرحم آثارا طويلة الأمد ومدمرة على الرئتين. و يعاني أطفال المدخنين من الانخفاض في أداء وظيفة الرئة، وهو ما يستمر في التأثير عليهم في شكل اضطرابات مزمنة في الجهاز التنفسي في مرحلة البلوغ. المراهقون المدخنون أكثر عرضة للمعاناة من أمراض الجهاز التنفسي المزمنة ويخاطرون بإتلاف رئاتهم إتلافا لا علاج له. وتواصل الرئتان النمو جيدا في مرحلة البلوغ، ولكن استنشاق السموم الموجودة في دخان التبغ يؤدي إلى إبطاء هذه العملية ويسبب ضررا بالرئة يحتمل ألا ُيمكن علاجه (5). الآثار الضارة لدخان التبغ على الرئتين تكاد تحدث أثاراها فورا (6). ويتسبب دخان التبغ في الانخفاض في أداء وظيفة الرئة وُعسر التنفس بسبب تورم المسالك الهوائية وتراكم المخاط في الرئتين. وأعراض الجهاز التنفسي المباشرة ليست سوى جزء من الضرر الذي يحدثه التبغ في الرئتين. لا تجعل التبغ يحبس أنفاسك لا تجعل التبغ يحبس أنفاسك 76 OHW | OHW | نوبة الربو الربو زيادة المخاطر الطبيعي المحدقة بالمدخنين بمقدار الِضعف المدخنون أكثر عرضة للسرطان بمقدار 22 مرة سرطان الرئة الربوالُسّل مرض الانسداد الرئوي المزمن يسبب سرطان الرئة 8.1 مليون وفاة في العالم سنويا (21). دخان التبغ هو أكثر أسباب سرطان الرئة شيوعا، إذ يتسبب في نحو 2.1 مليون وفاة بسرطان الرئة سنويا (21). تدخين التبغ يزيد من خطر تحويل السل من الحالة الكامنة إلى حالة المرض النشط بأكثر من الِضعف (11). والتعرض لدخان التبغ غير المباشر يزيد أيضا من خطر تطور عدوى السل الكامنة لتصبح مرضا نشطا. وإذا لم ُيعالج المرض علاجا ملائما، فيمكن أن ُيتوفى المصابون به من جراء فشل الجهاز التنفسي. ويزيد احتمال تحقيق مرضى السل حصائل علاجية أفضل بالإقلاع عن تعاطي التبغ. الانسداد الرئوي المزمن مرض يسبب نوبات من ُعسر التنفس والسعال وإنتاج المخاط. وهذه النوبات تسبب تعطلا شديدا في أداء الوظائف؛ إذ يمكن أن تستمر من عدة أيام إلى عدة أشهر، وتؤدي في بعض الأحيان إلى الوفاة (22). وفي عام 6102، أشارت التقديرات إلى أن أكثر من 152 مليون شخص مصابون بمرض الانسداد الرئوي المزمن (32). وتدخين التبغ أهم عامل من عوامل الخطر المنذرة بالإصابة بالمرض، إذ يتسبب في التورم والتمزق في الأكياس الهوائية في الرئتين، وهو ما يحد من قدرة الرئة على امتصاص الأكسجين وطرد ثاني أكسيد الكربون (42). ويتسبب كذلك في تراكم المخاط القيحي في الرئتين، مما يؤدي إلى سعال مؤلم وصعوبات بالغة في التنفس (71). ُيصاب واحد من كل خمسة مدخنين بالانسداد الرئوي المزمن في حياته (52)، وُيمكن أن ُيعزى نحو نصف الوفيات الناجمة عنه إلى التدخين (12). أطفال المدخنين ممن هم في سن المدرسة معرضون لخطر الإصابة بالربو أو تدهور حالة إصابتهم به أو كليهما معا. والربو الذي ُيصيب الأطفال لا علاج له، وُيسهم في التغيب عن المدرسة، واضطراب النوم، وتقييد اللعب. الربو مرض مزمن يصيب مسالك الهواء إلى الرئتين، مما يسبب التهابا ونوبات متكررة من ُعسر التنفس والَصفير (02). وتفيد تقديرات منظمة الصحة العالمية أن 532 مليون شخص يعانون حاليا من الربو. واستنشاق دخان التبغ أحد المسببات الرئيسية لتطور الربو أو تدهور حالة المصابين به أو كليهما معا (02). وتزيد فرصة تعرض المدخنين للإصابة بسرطان الرئة في حياتهم بنحو 22 مرة، مقارنة بغير المدخنين (81-31). وغير المدخنين الذين يتعرضون لدخان التبغ غير المباشر في المنزل أو في مكان العمل تزيد مخاطر إصابتهم بسرطان الرئة بنسبة %03 (3، 91). وبعد 01 سنوات من التحرر من التبغ، يقل خطر الإصابة بسرطان الرئة إلى نحو نصف الخطر المحدق بالمدخن (4). الُسّل أكبر الأمراض القاتلة المعدية في العالم. وفي عام 7102، فقد 6.1 مليون شخص حياتهم بسبب الُسّل، وأصيب به عشرة ملايين شخص (8). ويؤثر الُسّل على الرئتين في المقام الأول، وُيسبب معاناة المصابين به من سعال مصحوب بالدم ومن آلام شديدة في الصدر (9). والبكتريا المسببة للسل (البكتريا المتفطرة الُمقرَّ حة) تدخل الجسم وتصيب بالعدوى. ومع ذلك، هذه العدوى لا تتطور بالضرورة لتصبح مرضا نشطا - وهي حالة ُيطلق عليها مصطلح عدوى السل الكامنة. والُسّل الكامن قد يتطور ليصبح مرضا نشطا في أي وقت، وخصوصا عندما ُيضَعف الجهاز المناعي. وربع سكان العالم تقريبا لديهم ُسّل كامن، وهو ما يجعلهم عرضة لخطر الإصابة بالمرض النشط (22). وُيؤدي التدخين إلى زيادة كبيرة في خطر الإصابة بالُسّل والوفاة الناجمة عنه. ُيمكن أن ُتعزى نسبة تفوق %02 من معدل الإصابة بالسل عالميا إلى التبغ (01). والبالغون الذين تعرضوا لدخان التبغ غير المباشر خلال مرحلة الطفولة، وأصيبوا بالتهابات متكررة في الجهاز التنفسي السفلي نتيجة لذلك، معرضون لخطر الإصابة بالمرض. أمَّ ا الأشخاص الذين بدؤوا التدخين في سن الشباب أو المراهقة، فهم معرضون بشكل خاص للإصابة بالمرض نتيجة للانخفاض في نمو الرئة وفي أداء وظيفتها (02). ومعظم حالات المرض يمكن الوقاية منها عن طريق تجنب تدخين التبغ أو الإقلاع عنه مبكرا. والمرضى الذين يعانون من المرض ويقلعون عن التدخين يستعيدون قدرا أكبر من وظيفة الرئة ويعانون من آثار أقل على المدى الطويل. وفي الأشخاص المصابين بالربو، ُيقيد تدخين التبغ ممارسة النشاط البدني، ويسهم في عدم القدرة على العمل ويزيد من خطر الإصابة بالربو الحاد الذي يتطلب الرعاية الطارئة. يمكن أن تعزى واحدة من كل تسع وفيات تقع نتيجًة للربو إلى تدخين التبغ (12). والمرضى المصابون بالربو يمكن أن يسيطروا على حالتهم بمزيد من الفاعلية إذا أقلعوا عن تعاطي التبغ. بعد زيادة في أداء أسبوعين وظيفة الرئة بعد 01 سنوات انخفاض في خطر الاصابة بسرطان الرئة إلى النصف امسح ضوئيا هنا لا تجعل التبغ يحبس أنفاسك لا تجعل التبغ يحبس أنفاسك 98 OHW | OHW | منظمة الصحة العالمية استجابة ما من مستوى من التعرض لدخان التبغ غير محفوف بالمخاطر. وأفضل مقياس للوقاية من أمراض الجهاز التنفسي وتحسين صحة الرئة عالميا هو الحد من تعاطي التبغ ومن التعرض لدخانه. وتوفر اتفاقية منظمة الصحة العالمية الإطارية بشأن مكافحة التبغ استجابة منسقة وقوية لوباء التبغ المستشري عالميا وما يترتب عليه من تكاليف صحية واجتماعية وبيئية واقتصادية هائلة (72). وتوفر للأطراف في الاتفاقية أيضا الأساس والإطار الضروريين -القانوني والتقني على السواء- لاتخاذ تدابير شاملة وفعالة لمكافحة التبغ بحيث تغطي جميع القطاعات الحكومية. ولمساعدة البلدان على تنفيذ اتفاقية المنظمة الإطارية، أطلقت المنظمة حزمة السياسات الست (REWOPM) التقنية، التي تجمع بين التغيير في السياسات والزيادة في توعية الجمهور، وذلك تمشيا مع تدابير خفض الطلب الرئيسية التي نصت عليها الاتفاقية. وتشمل الاستراتيجيات الرئيسية في هذا النهج منع التدخين في الأماكن العامة المغلقة وأماكن العمل ووسائل النقل العام، وحظر الإعلان عن التبغ والترويج له ورعايته، وزيادة الضرائب المفروضة على منتجات التبغ زيادة كبيرة، واشتراط وضع تحذيرات صحية كبيرة مصورة على جميع منتجات التبغ، ودعم الحملات الشديد اللهجة التي تشنها وسائل الإعلام ضده، ورصد تعاطي التبغ وسياسات الوقاية منه، وتقدم المساعدة لمتعاطي التبغ للإقلاع عن تعاطيه. الإقلاع عن تعاطي التبغ ينقذ الأرواح وهو عنصر أساسي في تدابير مجموعة السياسات الست، بما يتماشى مع المادة 41 من اتفاقية المنظمة الإطارية. ويمكن أن ُيعالج الإقلاع عن تعاطي التبغ بعضا من الأضرار التي يسببها دخان التبغ على الرئتين لا الأضرار كلها. لذلك، من الضروري للغاية الإقلاع عن التدخين في أقرب وقت ممكن للوقاية من ظهور أمراض الرئة المزمنة، التي يحتمل ألا ُيمكن علاجها بمجرد ظهورها. وتحدث زيادة في أداء وظيفة الرئة في غضون أسبوعين فقط من الإقلاع عن تعاطي التبغ (4). والإقلاع عن التدخين بعد انتهاء التشخيص إلى الإصابة بمرض في الرئة مرتبط بتحقيق حصائل علاجية أفضل وتحسين نوعية الحياة. وتساهم منظمات وشبكات عديدة، منها التحالف العالمي لمكافحة الأمراض التنفسية المزمنة، في الأعمال العالمية التي تنفذها المنظمة للوقاية من الأمراض التنفسية المزمنة ومكافحتها. والتحالف مجموعة تطوعية من المنظمات والمؤسسات والوكالات التي تعمل معا لتقييم الاحتياجات، وزيادة الوعي العام، والدعوة للعمل، ووضع وتعزيز السياسات الرامية إلى تحسين صحة الرئة على الصعيد العالمي. لا يفوت أوان الإقلاع عن التدخين أبدا ومن ضمن استراتيجيات الإقلاع الفعالة ما يلي : تقديم نصائح موجزة للإقلاع عن تعاطي التبغ النصائح التي يقدمها مهنيو الرعاية الصحية بوصفها جزءا من ممارسة أعمالهم الروتينية تدخٌل لا غنى عنه للوقاية من أمراض الرئة وتدبيرها علاجيا في الرعاية الصحية الأولية. وفي الفترة بين عامي 7002 و 6102، أتيحت لنحو %82 من سكان العالم خدمات شاملة للإقلاع عن تعاطي التبغ في 71 بلدا. ويمكن أن تصل تلك التدخلات، إذا اعتمدها جميع مقدمي الرعاية الصحية، إلى عدد كبير من متعاطي التبغ، وأن تشجيعهم على الإقلاع عن تعاطيه. ولدعم جهود مرضى السل للإقلاع عن تعاطي التبغ أهمية كذلك لإنجاح أي برنامج لمكافحة السل. انه ايئوض حسما | WHO | WHO 1011 كسافنأ سبحي غبتلا لعجت لا كسافنأ سبحي غبتلا لعجت لا 1.
