Influence of individual behavioral risk factors (smoking, drinking) on mortality in the population cohort of adult people 20—59 years old in Tomsk (17-year prospective study)
In 17-year prospective cohort study, we analyzed the influence of smoking and drinking on the formation of cardiovascular and general mortality of adult people in Tomsk. The cohort included 1 546 people (630 men and 916 women) aged 20—59 years. It has been found that due to smoking the 17-year risk of death by any cause increases 2.4 times among men and 2.7 times among women. The increase in the frequency of drinking in the male population increase the risk of death by any cause 1.6 times (for men drinking once a month or more rarely), 2.4 times (for men drinking once a week and more rarely, but more often than once a month), and 3.8 times (for men drinking more often than once a week). The risk of death by cardiovascular diseases increases 1.7, 2.9, and 4.9 times, respectively.
