Abstract in brief

This study analyzed data from 9 U.S. cohorts to understand how cigarette smoking influences different types of cardiovascular disease (CVD), including fatal and nonfatal events, across a person's life, finding that smokers tend to experience CVD earlier and are more likely to have fatal first events.
The research showed that smoking significantly increases the risk of having a fatal CVD event as the first occurrence, with hazard ratios around 1.79 for men and 1.82 for women, meaning smokers are about 80% more likely to have a fatal event first compared to non-smokers.
Overall, smoking leads to earlier onset of CVD—by approximately 3.8 to 5.1 years—and this pattern holds true across different ages, highlighting smoking's role in increasing both the likelihood and severity of cardiovascular outcomes throughout life.
