Background and Objectives Benign paroxysmal positioning vertigo (BPPV) is one of themost frequent causes of vertigo in otology. We investigated the correlation between BPPV andsmoking and alcohol, which are the two common risk factors of numerous diseases, a relation-ship that has not been studied previously.
Subjects and Method We analyzed the correlation between smoking, alcohol and obesitywith BPPV and with canalith reposition therapy (CRT) using the big data provided by a gov-ernmental institution.
Results Alcohol consumption and high-risk alcohol consumption rate significantly showednegative correlation with BPPV. Also, smoking, alcohol consumption, and high-risk alcoholconsumption rate significantly showed negative correlation with CRT. On the other hand, obe-sity showed positive correlation with CRT significantly.
Conclusion Smoking and alcohol are considered to have a negative correlation with BPPV.
However, further studies are needed to establish the role of smoking, alcohol, and obesity in the prevalence of BPPV.
