RR (with 95% CI) of total mortality (multivariate-adjusted) by duration of smoking cessation among diabetic women. RRs of cardiovascular mortality among diabetic women by duration of smoking cessation (compared with never smokers) for ≥10, ≥5 to <10, and <5 years were 1.03 (0.75–1.41), 2.18 (1.30–3.64), and 2.39 (1.52–3.75), respectively. The RRs of cancer mortality for the respective durations of quitting were 1.26 (0.92–1.73), 1.52 (0.82–7.80), and 1.23 (0.67–2.28). For total mortality among nondiabetic subjects the RRs were 1.13 (1.04–1.22), 1.64 (1.42–1.89), and 2.20 (1.97–2.47) for the same respective durations of smoking cessation.
