One is that smokers are twice as likely to suffer from psoriasis as non-smokers, and there is a dose-dependent effect: the risk of psoriasis in women who smoke 15 cigarettes a day is 2.1, while the risk of psoriasis in women who smoke 20 cigarettes a day is 3.3. Pustular psoriasis is the most common type of psoriasis related to smoking, and other types also occur.

Second, the mechanism of smoking induced psoriasis remains to be further studied. Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) are one of the main inflammatory cells in psoriatic lesions. It has been found that the morphology and function of PMN are affected by smoking.

Third, oxide in smoke and oxygen free radicals produced by macrophage activation and the occurrence and maintenance of inflammation may also play an important role in the process of psoriasis.
