Abstract Objective To assess association between smoking and coronary artery lesion in patients with premature coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods 270 patients (158 male, age<55y and 112 female, age<65y)with premature CAD determined by coronary angiography were enrol ed. Smoking amount, blood lipids and coronary artery angiograph-ic results were analyzed. Results There was a positive correlation between smoking index and coronary slow- flow phenomenon (r=0.156, P<0.05). HDL- C was negatively correlated with smoking index (r=- 0.136) and Gensini score (r=- 0.156)(al P<0.05) . There was no correlation between smoking index and Gensini score (r=0.084, P>0.05). Con-clusion Smoking is related to HDL- C decline and coronary slow flow phenomenon in patients with premature CAD.
