title: [Epidemiologic aspects of tobacco smoking in connection with its clinical course among men aged 20-69 years living in Kiev].
abstract: An epidemiological study was carried out among 1500 men aged 20-69 years in order to study the prevalence of risk factors of coronary heart disease. 51.1% of the men turned out to be tobacco-smokers. Every tenth man smoked up over 20 cigarettes, every fourth man smoked up from 10 to 20 cigarettes a day. The number of tobacco-smokers decreased with age, namely from 61% at an age of 20-29 years to 33% at an age of 60-69 years. The structure of tobacco-smoking was found to change with age. This is related to the fact that the age-associated dynamics of its prevalence and intensity correlates with the dynamics of formation and course of the toxicomanic dependence on tobacco smoke. The data obtained are important for the planning of measures aimed at tobacco-smoking control among the population in cases where it is necessary to estimate whether carrying out of the sanitary instructive measures alone is sufficient.
