Table 7. Adjusted odds ratios of hypertension according to combined cigarette smoking and alcohol consumption status.

	Nonsmoker	Ex-smoker	Current smoker
Nondrinker
Prevalence (%)	44.4	55.2	36.9
Odds ratio	1.00	1.27 (0.88–1.83)	1.11 (0.90–1.37)
Ex-drinker
Prevalence (%)	69.5	55.5	53.4
Odds ratio	2.32 (1.45–3.73)a	0.75 (0.55–1.01)	0.82 (0.60–1.14)
Current drinker
Prevalence (%)	55.1	58.8	43.4
Odds ratio	1.37 (1.16–1.62)a	1.18 (0.93–1.51)	0.83 (0.73–0.95)b

Data are reported as odds ratios (95% confidence interval), adjusted for age, daily total caloric intake, and physical activity.

^aP value was considered significant using Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons.

^bInteraction = 0.89 (0.80–0.98), P = 0.024; reference was nondrinker and nonsmoker.
