20 samples of each non-smoking (group A, as a standard case), smoking cigarette (group B) and smoking water pipe (group C) were studied, respectively at Thi –Qar Governorate between 1st Jan. 2017 till the end of Feb. 2017. The average ages of all groups ranged between 25 and 40 years and all of them do not suffer of any genetic disease ( i.e . sugar diabetes and high blood pressure).Both, the blood hemoglobin concentration (Hb) and serum lipid profile were measured for groups A, B and C, respectively. The results indicated the presence of relative increase (p B> C Furthermore, it was found that there was a relative increase (p <0.05) in Hb of group C as compared with both groups A and B.With respect to the serum lipid profile, the result showed the presence of a relative increase (p <0.05) in the concentrations of total cholesterol in group (B) as compared with group (A) while there was a relative increase (p <0.05) in group (C) when its compared with both groups A and B. By considering the concentrations of triglyceraldehyde (TG) in group (B), it was noticed that there is no relative increase (p <0.05) as compared with group (A) while there was an relative increase (p <0.05) of group (C) in comparison with both groups (A and B).In the case of high density lipoprotein (HDL) it was found that there was non-relative decrease (p <0.05) in the human body concentration as compared with group (A) while there was a relative decrease (p <0.05) in the concentration of (HDL) with the group (C) as compared with group (A) but in comparison of such result with group (B), it was found that there was non-relative decrease (p <0.05).As for as the low density lipoprotein (LDL) is concerned, an relative increase (p <0.05) was found with both groups (B and C) as compared with group (A). Also it was noticed that a non-relative increase was indicated with group (C) when it was compared with group (B).Finally, the results showed a non-relative increase (p <0.05) in concentration (vLDL) with both groups (B and C) as compared with group (A). But in comparison between groups (C and B) it was found that there was a relative increase (p <0.05) with group (C).
