Factors associated with smoking status (multinomial logistic regression).

  Former smokers OR (95% CI) Current smokers OR (95% CI)
Age 0.98 (0.97–0.99)** 0.96 (0.95–0.98)###
Overweight/obesity 0.97 (0.72–1.31) 0.67 (0.48–0.94)#
Abdominal obesity 1.05 (0.75–1.48) 0.97 (0.67–1.40)
IGR 1.01 (0.80–1.27) 0.99 (0.75–1.33)
Hypertension 1.26 (1.03–1.56)* 1.15 (0.89–1.47)
Hypercholesterolaemia 1.26 (0.95–1.69) 1.40 (1.01–1.96)#
Hypertriglyceridaemia 1.10 (0.84–1.44) 1.14 (0.82–1.59)
Low HDL-C 0.97 (0.74–1.26) 1.39 (1.01–1.91)#
High LDL-C 0.81 (0.58–1.12) 1.07 (0.72–1.58)
CKD 1.23 (0.87–1.74) 0.96 (0.59–1.55)
IVD 1.48 (1.18–1.86)*** 1.07 (0.79–1.43)

The analysis was adjusted for covariates (sex, educational level, marital status, alcohol drinking, and sedentariness). ‘Non-smokers’ was considered the reference category.
