Effects of Tobacco Smoking on the Degeneration of the Intervertebral Disc: A Finite Element Study
Tobacco smoking is associated with numerous pathological conditions. Compelling experimental evidence associates smoking to the degeneration of the intervertebral disc (IVD). In particular, it has been shown that nicotine down-regulates both the proliferation rate and glycosaminoglycan (GAG) biosynt...
