Little attention has been devoted to understanding the language surrounding e-cigarette use. Researchers employ terms such as users of e-cigarettes or ENDS, but language employed outside scholarly writing is relatively unexamined. Thus, this study examined the language used by college students to refer to people who use e-cigarettes. College students (N = 1037; Mage= 20.67, SD = 3.81; 72.1% female; 69.6% White) at a southern U.S. university responded to the open-ended question: “What do you call a person who uses e-cigarettes?” Of 1086 responses, e-cigarette users’ (n = 591) and nonusers’ (n =...

Evidence in humans that supports the notion that while electronic cigarettes may be less harmful than traditional cigarettes, they are not harmless is summarised.

Many adolescents who vape want to quit and most have tried multiple times, so interventions need to engage adolescents with varying reasons to quit, barriers, and quit strategy preferences.

It is concluded that vaping is not without risk, and that further investigation is required to establish clear public policy guidance and regulation.

This comprehensive review discusses the diverse spectrum of vaping exposures, epidemiological and clinical reports, and experimental findings to provide a better understanding of EVALI and the adverse health effects of chronic e-cigarette exposure.

The Australian model shows the potential for public health gains by maintaining cigarette-oriented policies while relaxing the current restrictive NVP policy, and is particularly sensitive to the estimated rates of smoking cessation and switching to vaping.

In its development, vaping is not only in demand by men, but women have also become its users. Some societies still stigmatize women who smoke or vape. Women who vape or smoke are often referred to as unrighteous or naughty women and get ridiculed or cursed. In fact, vaping behavior in women is inseparable from the motives that are their reasons for vaping. The purpose of this study is to find out what the motives of women for vaping are, what effects are obtained after using vaping, and what stigma is obtained. The research was conducted using a qualitative approach with primary and secondary...

No new effective treatment for nicotine addiction has been developed recently, despite its huge adverse impact on overall health and other outcomes, and a low interest in developing new medications against smoking is an unacceptable state of affairs.

The role of health harm risk beliefs among AYA vapers and those susceptible to vaping is highlighted, and prevention efforts should examine the most potent ways to communicate vaping health harms to discourage AYA vaping.

The TGA's decision to effectively ban e-cigarettes in the Republic of Ireland has generated intense debate among the medical profession.

The topic of vaping is becoming increasingly prevalent in healthcare, especially regarding adolescents as their use of electronic cigarette products continues to increase, and healthcare providers need to be aware of these issues to provide appropriate education and care to adolescent patients.

The findings illustrated that positively framed e-cigarette and vaping-related postings available without age restrictions on TikTok—a rising video-sharing platform that is popular among adolescents—have been viewed many times.

Findings show that higher vaping identity is associated with greater trust in the tobacco industry, lower trust in health experts, lower e-cigarette harm perceptions, and lower intentions to abstain from using e-cigarettes, which suggests that efforts to reduce vaping among young adults may need to leverage messages that reduce the credibility of the cigarette industry.

It is concluded that exposure to smoking imagery in films increases the risk of smoking among young people, and recommends introduction of new policies to minimize the impact of this in films which contain smoking or vaping and are likely to be viewed by children and adolescents.

Electronic cig-arettes may enhance genotoxic effects of the tobacco smoke cancerogenes, and both nicotine, fla-vourants, smoke liquids’ heating products (propylene, glycol, glycerine), and metals may have unfavourable impact on health.

Both commercial and medical routes to vaping offer perceived benefits to vapers and may complement and reinforce each other to support smoking cessation.

The findings demonstrate that ENDS flavors alone change neurobiology and may promote vaping-dependent behaviors in the absence of nicotine, and the flavorant-induced changes in neurobiology parallel those caused by nicotine, which highlights the fact that nonmenthol flavorants may contribute to or enhance nicotine reward and reinforcement.

The objective of this research is to help reconcile the mixed findings on the effect of vape advertising campaigns on consumers’ vaping tendency. In a meta-analysis of 43 papers (140 studies, with 77,452 observations; 33% women, 67% men; Mage = 30.5 years), this research shows that in situations where perceived risk is less salient (e.g., social media vs. traditional advertising, ads using picture-dominant vs. text-dominant cues, adolescents vs. adults, nonsmokers vs. smokers), the positive effect of vape advertising campaigns on consumers’ vaping tendency is stronger. In addition, this resear...

A survey sample of 1,006 young adults who vape indicated that the majority did not perceive vaping as significantly harmful and a comprehensive smoking prevention policy, educational interventions, and quit support are needed to enhance awareness among young adults about the health effects associated with vaping.
