The review summarizes that passive smoke can induce vascular damage including endothelial inflammation, atherosclerosis development, lipid peroxidation, cytokine and acute phase protein alterations, and platelet aggravation.
Quoted textsource-backed
Passive smoke itself, is a volatile mixture of numerous toxins, chemicals and carcinogens, that interact with in vivo mechanisms and induce vascular damage, including endothelium inflammation, atherosclerosis development, lipid peroxidisation, alterations in cytokines and acute phase proteins (such as CRP), as well as platelet aggravation.
