After adjusting other risk factors including age, hDM, hHTN, and hHLP, female patients with smoking remained at higher risk than male patients with smoking. HR for female nonsmokers, male nonsmokers, and male smokers versus female smokers were (0.360, CI: 0.203–0.637), (0.562 CI: 0.337–0.937), and (0.597 CI: 0.376–0.948), respectively.
