Relationships between smoking habits and other behavior factors such as habitual exercise, physical activities, and alcohol drinking habits were observed among Japanese males. Data used were obtained in The 1990 National Cardiovascular Survey in Japan, which consisted of 3826 males aged 30+ years selected from the Japanese population randomly. The proportion of current smokers was 53.5% in overall, and it decreased according to aging; these results were similar to Japanese former data. Those exercising habitually were more likely to be former smokers, whereas no relationship was observed between smoking habits and physical activities. Smoking and alcohol drinking habits were closely related; habitual drinkers were 3.34 times as likely to be current smokers as non-drinkers. Dose-response relationship was observed as well. Thus, the relationship between smoking and alcohol drinking habits was shown quantitatively. J Epidemiol, 1996 ; 6 : 87-91.
