Abstract
The present article investigates the effect of tobacco smoking on the functional state of the vascular endothelium in healthy young people without other risk factors for coronary heart disease and arterial hypertension. Based on the analysis of the results obtained by rheoplethysmography, the endothelium-dependent and endothelium-independent responses according to Celermajer D.S.(1992) were studied. The increase in pulse blood flow to reactive hyperemia in students - smokers and non- smokers was analyzed. It was found that tobacco smoking has an adverse effect on the functional state of the vascular endothelium, namely endothelium-dependent vasodilation, which may further be a trigger for the development of a number of diseases of the cardiovascular system.
