    Various results around the Chebyshev inequality for functions monotone in mean are obtained. Some results are known. So, Theorem 2.1 and 2.2 are obtained in little different form, by \textit{H. Burkill} and \textit{L. Mirsky} [Periodica Math. Hungar. 6, 3-16 (1975; Zbl 0298.26019)], Theorem 3.2 by \textit{R. Johnson} [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 172, No. 1, 221-232 (1993; Zbl 0773.26008)] -- for a discrete analogue see reviewer's paper published in Ann. Univ. Mariae Curie-Skłodowska, Sect. A 47, 116-122 (1993). For generalizations of Theorem 4.3 see noted reviewer's paper and the well-known inequality of \textit{M. Biernacki}, \textit{H. Pidek} and \textit{C. Ryll-Nardzewski} [Ann. Univ. Mariae-Curie-Skłodowska, Sect. A 4, 1-4 (1950; Zbl 0040.31904)].
