In this article we are presenting about 40 tobacco-related pathographies
among more than 1 000 general pathographies that we examined, dealing with composers who died of fatal diseases such
as cancer, pneumonia and vascular episodes (stroke, heart attack-failure), which were all connected to their tobacco and
other addictions.
