Popis: It is common knowledge that smoking badly influences people's health. Amount of toxic chemical substances delivered to the human organism is directly proportional to the number of smoked cigarettes. Tobacco smoking increases the number of ill people and accelerates death. The problem of nicotine addiction has both social and medical aspects. The aim of the work was to assess the tobacco smoking among patients hospitalized in the Gastroenterology Clinic in SPSK 4 in Lublin. We found that smoking prevalence in the investigated group considerably exceeds the average values for Polish population.
