This review examines the dermatologic effects of tobacco use and nicotine, noting potential benefits and drawbacks for various skin conditions, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the therapeutic potential of Smoothened modulators for cancer treatment and explores their pharmacological implications, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, smoking status and intensity were significantly associated with moderate or severe androgenetic alopecia among Asian men, after accounting for age and family history.

This article reviews the role of perifollicular regulatory T cells in maintaining hair follicle integrity in the context of hidradenitis suppurativa and calls attention to inflammatory mechanisms without reporting new clinical results.

In this study, topical CUR61414 was effective in inhibiting basal cell carcinomas in mice, but no clinical activity was observed in human trials.

This study found that combining hair follicle-derived smooth muscle cells with a natural biomaterial created vascular constructs with mechanical and functional properties similar to native arteries, suggesting potential for arterial implantation.

This study found that smoking, obesity, and family history are significant risk factors for premature hair graying in young men.

Long-term use of a certain medication can worsen erectile function in aged rats by damaging penile muscle cells.

This study found that among Caucasian individuals with androgenetic alopecia, being overweight and smoking were associated with greater severity of the condition.

This review discusses environmental factors like UV radiation and smoking that affect hair health and highlights the potential role of nutrition, but it reports no new results.

In this study, researchers developed a method to efficiently derive contractile smooth muscle cells from human hair follicle stem cells using TGF-β1 and PDGF-BB, which may advance vascular tissue engineering.

This review discusses the mechanism and side effects of smoothened inhibitors for advanced basal cell carcinoma, reporting no new clinical results and highlighting current management strategies for these adverse events.

This study found that vismodegib was effective in treating basal cell carcinoma, achieving complete remission in some patients; however, significant side effects often required careful management to prevent therapy suspension, which can lead to resistance.

This study found that aminomethylpyrazole compound 10l inhibited hair growth in a mouse model and showed a low risk for photo-irritation, though it was slightly less effective than eflornithine.

This study highlights that smoker's mustache, a tobacco-related hair discoloration on the upper lip, is asymptomatic, generally unnoticed, and may resolve if smoking is discontinued, though patients often continue smoking.

This review discusses yellow hair discoloration associated with smoking and systemic conditions, proposing smoking cessation or hair removal as management options, but provides no new clinical results.

This study found variable outcomes in hair loss treatment with autologous cell-based therapy using DSC cells, with certain gene markers showing inconsistent correlations with treatment efficacy.

This study found that smoking may lead to earlier onset of androgenetic alopecia in Nigerian subjects, potentially mediated by alterations in serum trace elements.

The study reported that vismodegib showed significant effectiveness in treating basal cell carcinoma, particularly in patients with Gorlin-Goltz syndrome or locally advanced BCC, but also highlighted substantial side effects, requiring careful management to prevent treatment resistance and maintain remission.

This study found that LDE225, a novel Smo antagonist, shows potential as a topical treatment for basal cell carcinoma due to its high affinity binding and effective inhibition of tumor growth in preclinical models.

In preclinical studies, topical CUR61414 reduced Hh signaling and shrank BCCs in mice, but this study found no clinical efficacy in human superficial or nodular BCCs.

In this study, rice straw-derived smoke water enhanced root growth in rice plants by increasing root meristem size and cell proliferation, reducing superoxide accumulation under phosphorus deficiency, and altering internal phosphorus partitioning, although it suppressed root hair elongation, which affected phosphate uptake.

This study found a significant association between smoking and both the presence and severity of androgenetic alopecia among adult males, suggesting that smoking may be a modifiable risk factor for this common form of hair loss.

In this study, conducted at the Jordan Clinic in Tehran, smokers and alcohol users who underwent hair transplantation had significantly worse outcomes, such as lower hair density and growth, compared to non-smokers and non-drinkers, highlighting the negative impact of these lifestyle factors on treatment efficacy.

This article describes a 10-month-old female with congenital smooth muscle hamartoma, highlighting the importance of differential diagnosis in congenital skin lesions due to potential malignancy risks.

This meta-analysis found that smoking is significantly associated with increased odds of developing and progressing androgenetic alopecia, with higher risks observed in men smoking at least 10 cigarettes daily.

This case study reported that endotracheal hair growth following tracheal restructuring with an autograft was associated with cigarette smoking, and was ultimately stopped by argon plasma laser-coagulation and smoking cessation.

This study found that men who smoke are more likely to develop androgenetic alopecia and experience disease progression compared to non-smokers.

This study observed a significant association between smoking and an increased risk of hair loss, including male pattern baldness, and highlights the need for interventions at individual, community, and national levels to address smoking-related hair loss.

This case report describes an 18-year-old male with a rare acquired smooth muscle hamartoma on his face, characterized by hyperpigmented plaques and increased hair growth, suggesting a histological overlap with folliculosebaceous cystic hamartoma.
