Science pokes holes in tobacco myths: how smoking slows healing
NCT ID NCT04870970
Summary
This study aims to understand how different tobacco products, like cigarettes, e-cigarettes, and smokeless tobacco, affect how quickly and well skin wounds heal. Researchers will recruit 60 people who use various tobacco products, plus non-smokers for comparison. They will create small, controlled wounds on participants' skin and measure healing through temperature, blood flow, oxygen levels, and markers of inflammation.
