Smoking is related to an increased risk for cardiovascular disease and malignant disease. Moreover, smoking may be considered as an important modifiable risk factor for metabolic syndrome. To date, the relationship between cigarette smoking amounts and metabolic syndrome has not been studied in depth. This study aimed to explore the association between cigarette smoking amounts, metabolic syndrome and its components among Korean population. Study subjects were 2,428 participants from the Sixth Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (2016). Demographic and lifestyle characteristics, including smoking status, were gathered from a self-reported questionnaire. Anthropometric measurements and biochemical studies were conducted. The metabolic syndrome was defined according to the revised NCEP-ATP III criteria. Logistic regression models were used to estimate an association between smoking amounts and metabolic syndrome and its components with an adjustment for educational level, income, alcohol consumption, physical activity, body mass index (BMI) and age. Metabolic syndrome was significantly more prevalent in current smokers
