To provide access to the results of a randomized cross-sectional study conducted by the Brazilian Center for Information on Psychotropic Drugs in 2001.
This survey involved a random sample of individuals ranging from 12 to 65 years of age and residing in the 107 largest cities (over 200,000 inhabitants) in Brazil, which represented 27.7% of the Brazilian population, estimated to be 169,799,170 inhabitants at the time. A total of 8,589 interviews were conducted. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration questionnaire, translated and adapted for use in Brazil, was used in the interviews.
Of the sample as a whole, 41.1% of the interviewees reported having experimented with tobacco products. The prevalence of daily smokers was 17.4% (20.3% among males and 14.8% among females). We found that 9% of the sample (10.1% of the men and 7.9% of the women) were nicotine-dependent, according to the criteria of the National Household Survey on Drug Abuse.
The prevalence of current smoking in the 107 largest cities of Brazil is significantly lower in this decade than was the national prevalence at the end of last century.

本调查采用随机抽样方法，选取年龄在 12 至 65 岁之间、居住在巴西 107 个最大城市（人口超过 20 万）的个体作为研究对象，这些城市占当时巴西总人口（估计为 169799170 人）的 27.7%。共进行了 8589 次访谈。访谈中使用了经翻译和改编适用于巴西的药物滥用和精神健康服务管理局问卷。
在整个样本中，41.1%的受访者报告曾使用过烟草制品。每日吸烟者的流行率为 17.4%（男性为 20.3%，女性为 14.8%）。根据全国药物滥用家庭调查的标准，我们发现该样本中有 9%（男性占 10.1%，女性占 7.9%）存在尼古丁依赖。
与上世纪末的全国流行率相比，本十年巴西 107 个最大城市的当前吸烟流行率显著降低。
