Abstract(s)

This study represents a global assessment of IAQ in Lisbon smoking entertainment places and health effects on exposed workers. Most importantly, it may contribute to the better understanding of pathogenesis mechanisms due to SHS exposure. In addition it may lead to the discovery of specific biomarkers for occupational SHS-exposure that might precede respiratory diseases on their employees and promote more effective therapies.
