Sažetak
The respiratory system and respiration are among the most important physiological mechanisms. Smoking and tobacco smoke consumption in general are one of the leading public health problems today, especially among the young population. PURPOSE: This study aims to compare the habits of tobacco consumption and the results of spirometry measurements of male adolescent athletes and non- athlete adolescents. METHODS: A total of 83 respondents participated in the study ; Osijek Football Club footballers and adolescents of the same age from the Local Communities of the City of Osijek, who do not do sports. The first part of the study included a short questionnaire with general demographic indicators, and the second part a lung function test, spirometry. RESULTS: The respondents were mostly between 17 and 18 years old. Out of the total number of tested, only 29.1% of athletes consume tobacco products, while the non-athletes number rises to as many as 42.8%. The four parameters of pulmonary function test did not show statistically significant differences between groups, which confirms the initial hypothesis that at this age there is no significant difference because respondents do not consume tobacco products for a longer period. CONCLUSION: Doing sports leads to a negative attitude towards tobacco use. However, the number of young people consuming tobacco products who are not physically active is worrying.
