Smoking Raises Risk of Peripheral Artery Disease


June 6, 2011 -- Smoking may dramatically increase a woman's chance of developing peripheral artery disease (PAD), a study shows.

PAD affects about 8 million Americans. It is often a serious, debilitating disorder caused by narrowing of the arteries in the lower extremities. PAD not only causes pain in the legs but is also associated with an increased risk of heart attack, according to new research.

In a Harvard Medical School study, researchers followed 38,825 initially healthy women over age 45 for an average of 12.7 years to determine if smoking was a significant risk factor for development of PAD.

The researchers found that smoking increased a woman's risk for PAD tenfold.  Quitting smoking reduced the odds of developing PAD but did not eliminate it, even for people who had given up cigarettes for many years.

Indeed, researchers found that not smoking for 20 years did not reduce the risk of development of PAD to the level of women who never smoked.

"This study showed that -- as has been previously shown for heart attacks and for lung cancer -- smoking is actually very harmful for the development of PAD," Eruna Pradhan, MD, of Harvard Medical School, says in a news release. "This is significant because PAD is a disease that not only causes a lot of pain and discomfort with usual daily activities, but it also increases the risk of heart attack."
