RE: A Small Study On The Health Effects of Electronic Cigarettes

in #steemstem7 years ago

Interesting article. To me it seems intuitive that vaping will be less bad that smoking. But it is not clear how ‘less bad’ it will be. I guess we will know eventually, with long-term outcomes studies, but this study, as admitted by the authors and yourself, doesn’t seem to really help too much

If I was a smoker/vaper I would only be interested in long-term outcomes, which of course take a bit of time. Do you know if Philip Morris or BAT or someone is running long-term trials?

Cheers

I don't know, it perhaps does mean something especially considering traditional cigarettes result in detectable changes in the time frame of this study. But yeah, clearly longer term studies will be much more informative.

Nope, I don't. I just sort of stumbled upon this article when perusing literature, so I didn't know about any of this at all until recently. I honestly had not thought about vaping much before.

Thanks for reading, sorry I am not of more help in this reply!
