Genotoxic damage assessment using the micronucleus assay in buccal mucosa of different types of smokers: A cross-sectional study
This study identified genotoxic damage associated with various smoking habits, except for cannabis use, highlighting the need for public health interventions to reduce smoking and mitigate its genotoxic effects. These findings provide a foundation for future research and the implementation of preventive policies.
