Results. A total of 12 papers were selected for review, comprising
of 1801 kidney transplant recipients with a history of smoking. The
impact of cigarette smoking on kidney recipient survival was only
evaluated by 6 studies and the relative risk of smoking for death
was available in 3 reports, varying between 0.8 and 2.2. Cigarette
smoking was an independent risk factor for patient death. In
addition, on univariable and multivariable analyses, graft survival
correlated with a history of cigarette smoking and the relative risk
for graft failure ranged from 1.06 to 2.3.
Conclusions. Cigarette smoking was associated with an increased
risk of death and graft loss. Therefore, every attempt should be
made to encourage kidney transplant candidates to stop smoking.

INTRODUCTION
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause
of mortality among kidney transplant recipients.1,2 In
addition, smoking is a major potentially modifiable
or avoidable risk factor for CVD.3,4 Ponticelli and
colleagues5 reported that smoking was associated
with a higher risk of CVD (relative risk [RR], 1.3;
P = .02) in 864 adults kidney transplant recipients.
Furthermore, Kasiske and coworkers6,7 found that
kidney transplant smokers had a greater risk of
ischemic heart disease (RR, 1.95) compared with
nonsmoking recipients. Recipient smokers have
a significantly shorter mean survival due to
mortality from CVD, in which smoking played
an important contributing role.8,9 In addition,
established cardiovascular risk factors other than
smoking, such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus,
and dyslipidemia, are more frequent in kidney

transplant recipients than in the general population.
These risk factors increase the risk of CVD among
kidney transplant recipients and decrease patient
and graft survivals.10
Cancer, the second cause of death in kidney
transplant recipients, is another consequence
of smoking.11 Risk factors for malignancy after
transplantation include factors common to the
general population, such as age, smoking habits,
and sun exposure.12 For example, a series of 1500
kidney transplant recipients showed that age
greater than 45 years old (P = .007) and cigarette
smoking (P = .02) were significantly associated with
an elevated risk of malignancy.13 In a series of 84
heart transplants, cigarette smoking was associated
with reduced recipient survival and increased
risk of posttransplant cancer.14 Finally, cigarette
smoking is also a known major risk factor for the
development of chronic obstructive lung disease,
with 90% of mortality from chronic obstructive
lung disease directly attributable to smoking.15
Therefore, smoking can lead to reduced patient
survival by causing lung disease.
The prevalence of smoking among kidney
transplant recipients is 25% and 35% to 40% in
American and European patients, respectively.16,17
On the other hand, cigarette smoking is the world’s
major cause of premature mortality responsible for
an estimated 5 million deaths each year.18 Although
the adverse effects of smoking in the nontransplant
setting are well known, its impact on patient
and graft survival after kidney transplantation
remains unclear. There are, however, surprisingly
few studies addressing cigarette smoking among
kidney transplant recipients. Thus, we performed
a systematic review of the literature to identify the
effects of cigarette smoking on patient and graft
survival rates among kidney transplant recipients.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
We searched the PubMed database from 1968 to
2009 to identify studies that had reported the effect
of cigarette smoking on kidney transplant recipients.
Our keywords included kidney transplantation,
cigarette, smoking, tobacco, and nicotine and their
synonyms. To identify additional relevant articles,
bibliographies of qualitative topic reviews and the
identified articles were also searched. Duplicated
publications were discarded. We restricted our
search to human studies and placed no restrictions
on language. Our review aimed to address two
specific questions: (1) What is the effect of cigarette
smoking on kidney allograft survival? (2) What
is the effect of cigarette smoking on the kidney
transplant recipient survival?
There were not enough case-control and cohort
studies reporting adjusted RRs and 95% confidence
intervals (95% CI) of all-cause mortality and graft
failure among kidney transplant smokers relative
to nonsmoker patients (Table 1); therefore, we
could not assess the pooled adjusted RR and 95%
CI of these endpoints in a meta-analysis. Table 1
shows the characteristics of studies included in
this review.1,4,8,9,16,17,19-24
RESULTS
The electronic and manual searches yielded 357
papers by titles and abstracts, of which 39 were

considered potentially relevant and were selected
for full text review. Twenty-seven irrelevant
reports were excluded. After full text review, 9
retrospective cohort studies, 1 prospective cohort
study, 1 cross-sectional study, and 1 case report
were selected for our review (Table 1). Eighteen
hundred and one patients with a history of smoking
before kidney transplantation (ex-smoker) or after
kidney transplantation were included in this review.
The impact of cigarette smoking on kidney
recipient survival had been evaluated by 6
studies,1,8,9,16,17,19 and the RR of smoking for death
was available in 3 reports, varying from 0.8 to
2.2.1,9,17 Cigarette smoking was an independent risk
factor for patient survival, and kidney transplant
recipients with a smoking history had a significantly
shorter survival (Table 2). However, Yavuz
and colleagues, who only reported univariable
analysis, did not find a decreased patient survival
in smokers after transplantation.16 Univariable19,20
and multivariable8,9,17,19,21 analyses showed that
graft survival correlated with a history of cigarette
smoking, and the RR for graft failure ranged from
1.06 to 2.3 (Table 2). In contrast, two retrospective
cohort studies showed that cigarette smoking was
not a risk factor for graft failure on univariable
analysis.16,22 However, it should be noted that the
number of patients included in these studies was
relatively small (Table 1).
Kasiske and Klinger reported the prevalence of
cigarette smoking and its impact on patient and
graft survival in a large cohort of kidney transplant
recipients.17 The total number of pack-years smoked
reported at the time of kidney transplantation was
a stronger predictor for transplant outcomes. In
univariable analysis, smoking more than 25 packyears
at the time of kidney transplantation was
associated with increased graft loss and a higher
mortality rate (Table 2). After adjusting for multiple
predictors of kidney allograft loss, smoking more
than 25 pack-years (compared to smoking less than
25 pack-years or no smoking) was associated with a
30% higher risk of graft loss (Table 1). Having quit
smoking more than 5 year prior transplantation
reduced the relative risk of kidney allograft loss
by 34% (Table 2). This increased graft loss was
largely due to the increased mortality.17 The total
consumption of cigarette smoking was associated
with CVD; for example, the RR of smoking 11 to
25 pack-years at the time of transplantation was
1.56 (95% CI, 1.06 to 2.31; P = .02), whereas that of
smoking more than 25 pack-years was 2.14 (
