Changes in blood pressure and body weight following smoking cessation in women

Objective.  Few have studied the long‐term effects of smoking and smoking cessation on weight gain and blood pressure increase and compared with the age‐related increases experienced by most adults. This study compared the development of weight and blood pressure in female never smokers, continuing smokers and smokers who quit smoking.
