Abstract(s)
Este trabalho pretende reunir a informação atualmente disponível acerca do impacto na
doença pulmonar do consumo de drogas fumadas, com incidência na canábis, a segunda
substância mais fumada a seguir ao tabaco, tal como das novas formas de fumar,
nomeadamente os cigarros eletrónicos e tabaco aquecido.
Urge abordar estas temáticas perante a evidência do crescimento exponencial do consumo
das mesmas e crescente disponibilização de dados acerca do seu impacto na saúde.
Nesse sentido, os objetivos para o mesmo são os seguintes: esclarecer se o consumo de
canábis e o uso de alternativas ao cigarro convencional são inócuos; compreender alguns
dos mecanismos que possam estar associados a lesão do tecido celular pulmonar
relacionado com a ação de certos componentes destes produtos; perceber se há patologias
e alterações da função pulmonar relacionadas com o consumo de canábis e o uso de cigarros
eletrónicos e tabaco aquecido; resumir e integrar as principais evidências no campo da
patologia pulmonar relacionadas com o consumo crescente de outras substâncias fumadas
que não o cigarro convencional.
This study aims to gather the currently available information on the impact of smoked drugs on lung disease, with a focus on cannabis, the second most smoked substance after tobacco, as well as on new forms of smoking, namely e-cigarettes and heated tobacco. It is urgent to address these issues given the evidence of the exponential growth of their consumption and the increasing availability of data on their impact on health. In this sense, the objectives are as follows: clarify whether the consumption of cannabis and the use of alternatives to conventional cigarettes are harmless; understand some of the mechanisms that may be associated with damage to lung cell tissue related to the action of certain components of these products; understand whether there are pathologies and changes in lung function related to the consumption of cannabis and the use of electronic cigarettes and heated tobacco; summarize and integrate the main evidence in the field of pulmonary pathology related to the increasing consumption of smoked substances other than conventional cigarettes.
