Abstract:
In this paper, 11 case-control studies on the relation between smoking and CHD in China were analysed by means of Meta-analysis. The cumulative casesand controls were 1172 and 2507. The results showed that statistically signiflicant correlation between smoking and CHD was discovered. The pooled OR (smoking vs no-smoking) was 2.20 (95% CI: 1.91-2.55). There was strong dose-response relation between the amount of smoking and the OR in developing CHD.
