El consumo de cigarrillos. Perspectivas frente a la matematización y concientización del fenómeno

Abstract

Over time, cigarette consumption has emerged as a significant determining factor in the development of pulmonary and cardiovascular diseases. This concerning trend has been accentuated, especially among young people aged 16 to 18, according to data from the Ministry of Health in Colombia. Therefore, a meticulous study has been carried out at the Faculty of Sciences and Education of the Francisco José de Caldas District University in Bogotá. The primary purpose of this research has been to analyze tobacco consumption as a determining factor in health deeply and rigorously, using rigorous statistical methods. The fundamental objective of this study is to raise awareness in the community about the dangers associated with tobacco consumption, based on the results and developments obtained through various research methods. To conduct this research, both stochastic and deterministic approaches have been used to analyze relevant variables in this issue, such as body mass index, age, tobacco consumption, and participation in sports activities. In addition, software tools have been developed to support and facilitate awareness of this phenomenon. The results obtained provide a perspective based on mathematical modeling, allowing for a more precise and in-depth understanding of the real impact of tobacco consumption and its consequences on health. This study contributes to expanding knowledge on the subject and promoting awareness of the importance of addressing tobacco consumption among the young population.
