[Smoking--I. Smoking habits, number of cigarettes smoked].
A multiphase, oncologic, population screening was carried out in 5.555 residents (91% of the expected number) over 40 years of age, from three districts of the community of Mali Idos. The poll showed that 83.1% of males and 21.9% of females are familiar with smoking (ex-smokers or active smokers); 45.7% of males and 11.6% of females are active and 37.4% of males and 10.3% of females are exsmokers; 314 residents--11% of males and 1.3% of females smoke more than one pack of cigarettes daily; some of them smoke more than 60, 80, even 100 cigarettes daily. In two age groups (40-44, 45-49) 100% of male respondents is familiar with smoking; in the group over 75 years of age this percent is reduced to one third (21.8%). We can conclude that the distribution of smoking in this population differed in the middle and in the second half of the century.
