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.

In this study, patients with diabetic retinopathy and peripheral occlusive arterial disease had significantly longer diabetes duration, higher HbA1c levels, poorer glycemic control, and were more often smokers compared to those without arterial disease, suggesting these factors contribute to disease development.

In this study, women with polycystic ovary syndrome who smoked more had worsened lipid profiles, higher white blood cell counts, and lower prolactin levels compared to non-smokers.

This case study describes a 69-year-old man with significant smoking history and radiological findings suggesting metastatic bronchogenic carcinoma with a left adrenal metastasis.

This review examines the use of selenium and vitamin E supplements for reducing prostate cancer risk, finding mixed evidence that suggests benefits may be limited to individuals with specific risk factors, like low baseline levels or smoking history, rather than broadly applicable.

This study suggests that cigarette smoking is a significant risk factor for hidradenitis suppurativa in Polish patients, but other potential contributors like obesity and diabetes showed no strong associations.

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

This article discusses the authors' concerns over the misinterpretation of studies linking smoking and frontal fibrosing alopecia, clarifying that neither study suggests smoking is protective against the condition.

This article discusses patient preferences for the follicular unit extraction (FUE) method in hair transplantation, highlighting its benefits of rapid recovery and comfortable post-operative experience but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that several demographic, familial, lifestyle, and metabolic factors were independently associated with androgenic alopecia, differing by severity across various subtype classifications.

In this case report, a 46-year-old man developed scalp necrosis with infection following FUE hair transplantation, possibly due to factors like smoking, long surgery duration, dense grafting, and secondary infection. Early recognition and treatment prevented further tissue loss, but the patient had residual scarring.

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 describes a 45-year-old male with black hairy tongue who experienced complete resolution of tongue discoloration and improved halitosis after receiving treatment focused on enhanced oral hygiene, tongue brushing, and smoking cessation.
