Abstract

It is estimated that smoking habit has caused the death of six million people in different parts of the world each year. This figure is frequently connected with an expanded danger of death from constant non-transmittable illnesses. Low serum vitamin D levels are related to weakened lung function, expanded occurrence of infectious sicknesses and inflammation. In smokers an acceleration of pulmonary function decrease was observed. Chest radiography and spirometry tests were performed, which included samples of peripheral blood in a population sample of 25 healthy male smokers. Serum 25 (OHD) concentrations were measured by an electrochemical-luminescent (ECLIA) bond assay. The average level of vitamin D was found in 27.87 (SD = 7.08). There were no differences between body mass index (BMI) and 25(OHD) value (p> 0.05), and there were no differences between smoking types and 25(OHD)rates (p> 0.05). Vitamin D sufficiency is found primarily in healthy smokers, even if they are found in tropical regions such as Indonesia. It is still believed that vitamin D levels have a substantial clinical benefit in the deterioration of lung function.
