Variability in ozone-induced pulmonary injury and inflammation in healthy and cardiovascular-compromised rat models.

abstract：:Introduction: Tobacco use is a major risk factor of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and atherosclerosis in particular. The use of waterpipe smoking (WPS) is increasing due to the misperception that it is less harmful than cigarette smoking due to its flavor and the use of water as a filter. Thus, research that investiga...
