Current smoking (15.2% of participants) showed a trend toward increased severity of gastric lesions (fully adjusted OR 1.59, 95% CI 0.93–2.71, p = 0.092), though not statistically significant.

Smoking as an Independent Risk Factor In ordinal logistic regression analysis, current smoking was associated with increased odds of more severe endoscopic lesions, though this did not reach statistical significance ( Figure 1 A).
