Abstract
La relación entre la depresión y el consumo de tabaco se ha estudiado ampliamente en los adultos, mientras que en los adolescentes se le ha prestado poca atención. Sin embargo, del 40% al 70% de los adolescentes deprimidos desarrollan una comorbilidad adicional. En este artículo se revisa la prevalencia del consumo de cigarrillos, la prevalencia de la depresión y la relación entre la depresión y el consumo de cigarrillos en la adolescencia. Los estudios revisados sugieren un elevado grado de comorbilidad entre depresión y fumar cigarrillos en la adolescencia. Este hallazgo debería poner sobre aviso a los clínicos y a otros profesionales de la salud que hay una mayor probabilidad de depresión en los adolescentes fumadores y viceversa. La comorbilidad entre fumar y depresión en los adolescentes sugiere también que la prevención del hábito de fumar y los programas para dejar de fumar deben de tener en cuenta los porcentajes elevados de depresión en los jóvenes adolescentes

We have reviewed the prevalence of cigarettes consumption, depression and, the relationship between depression and the consumption of cigarettes among adolescents. These finding shall be a serious warning to clinicians and other health professionals, that there is a higher probability of depression in adolescents who smoke and viceversa. The comorbidity between smoking and depression in adolescents suggests as well, that the prevention of the practice of smoking and smoking cessation programs should take into account the high levels of depression among adolescents
