ASSOCIATION OF SMOKING WITH OSTEOPOROSIS

Abstract

Investigating the relationship between smoking and osteoporosis is the main goal of the current study, 150 patients from various hospitals are recruited for the study using cross-sectional data, and they complete a questionnaire based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Patients were 52.94 years old on average; 48% of them were smokers and 52% were non-smokers. The study is using a probability-based approach to purposeful sampling. The study's findings support the notion that smoking and osteoporosis are related. Point 72 (48%) was the one that smokers were most frequently found to have, followed by diet 117 (78%), and body mass index 58 (38.7%). The study also shows that smokers have a higher risk of developing osteoporosis than non-smokers, which indicated that smokers were at a particular risk.
