sama tímabili sést líka fall í tíðni daglegra reykinga
(tafla II) og sama gildir ef niðurstöður 6. árs eru
skoðaðar þessi ár (tafla III). A síðasta ári könnunarinnar
reyktudaglega4.3%læknanemaá l.ogó.áriog 14.5%
reyktu minna en daglega. Þegar niðurstöður allra
árganga á 1. ári eru bomar saman við niðurstöður 6. árs
sést að daglegar reykingar voru tæplega 50% algengari
á 6. ári (tafla IV). Daglegar reykingar voru 2-3 sinnum
fágætari meðal kvenna í læknanámi. I töflu V kemur
fram hvaða tegund tóbaks læknanemar aðhylltust.
Ýmis þekkingaratriði voru athuguð en hér verður
aðeins gerð grein fyrir kransæðasjúkdómum,
brjóstkvefi, lungnaþembu, krabbameini í raddböndum
