Background: Both cigarette smoking and dyslipidemia are well-established major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between cigarette smoking and dyslipidemia, using urinary cotinine level.
Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted in 5072 korean adults aged ≥19 years. We compared the lipid profile of smokers and non-smokers, using data from the sixth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2014-2015). Dyslipidemia was defined as any lipid profile abnormalities or current intake of cholesterol-lowering medication and smokers were defined as someone who are urine cotinine level ≥250 ng/ml.
Results: Male smokers revealed an increased risk for low HDL cholesterol (OR 1.46; 95% CI 1.19-1.80), high triglyceride (OR 1.41; 95% CI 1.13-1.75) and high LDL cholesterol (OR 1.71; 95% CI 1.18-2.48) compared with non-smokers, significantly. Female smokers showed increased risk for high total cholesterol (OR 1.96; 95% CI 1.19-3.23), high triglyceride (OR 2.40; 95% CI 1.48-3.90) and high LDL cholesterol (OR 3.21; 95% CI 1.75-5.90) compared with non-smokers, significantly.
Conclusion: Cigarette smoking is associated with dyslipidemia, especially in high triglyceride and LDL cholesterol in both sexes and the risk of high triglyceride and LDL cholesterol is more higher in female than male.
