Abstract Cigarette smoking is one of the leading causes of preventable and premature death worldwide. Even worse, many people are generally exposed to passive smoking, which leads to several respiratory diseases and related mortalities. Considering, more than 7000 compounds are included in cigarettes, their combustion results intoxicants that have deleterious effects on health. However, there is a lack of research analyzing the effects of smoking and passive smoking on all-cause and disease-specific mortality through its chemical compounds including heavy metals. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of smoking and passive smoking on all-cause and disease-specific mortality mediated by cadmium, one of the representative smoking-related heavy metals using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999–2018 in the United States. We found that current smoking and passive smoking was related to increased risk of all-cause, CVD-related, and cancer-related mortality. Notably, passive smoking showed a synergistic effect with smoking status on the risk of mortality. In particular, current smokers with passive smoking had the highest risk of all-cause and disease-specific deaths. In addition, the accumulation of cadmium in the blood due to smoking and passive smoking mediates the increased risk of all-cause mortality. Further studies are needed to monitor and treat cadmium toxicity to improve smoking-related mortality rates. |
