For women who smoke 15 or more cigarettes per day, the risk of peripheral artery disease (PAD) is 10 times higher than women who have never smoked. Women who quit smoking more than 20 years earlier still had a higher risk for PAD compared to women who had never smoked. Findings are available online in an easy to follow patient summary sheet.
