Aim: to investigate the effect of smoking and smoking cessation on cardio-ankle vascular index (cavi). methods: the subjects were 82 smokers (77 men,64±10 years) and 20 non-smokers (18 men,61± 7 years). cavi was measured every 3 months and cavi severity was classified into 3 levels. decreased,unchanged,and increased cavi severity levels were coded as improvement, no change, and exacerbation, respectively. smoking status was coded as success for complete absti-nence,partial success for a reduced number of cigarettes,and failure for an unchanging number of cigarettes. results: compared with non-smokers,smokers showed a higher cavi (p<0.05) prior to smoking cessation. post-cessation,cavi improved from 9.4 to 8.6 (p<0.01) in success cases (n=22),and the significant pre-cessation difference from non-smokers (n=20,cavi=8.8) disappeared. with regard to the change in cavi severity of each smoking status,improvement occurred in 17%,24%,and 68% of failure (n=35),partial success (n=25),and success (n=22) groups,respec-tively,and the success group was significantly higher than the other two groups. conclusion: the study showed that cavi was increased by smoking,and complete smoking cessa-tion improved cavi.
