An updated overview of e-cigarette impact on human health
The electronic cigarette (e-cigarette), for many considered as a safe alternative to conventional cigarettes, has revolutionised the tobacco industry in the last decades. In e-cigarettes, tobacco combustion is replaced by e-liquid heating, leading some manufacturers to propose that e-cigarettes have less harmful respiratory effects than tobacco consumption. Other innovative features such as ...

Analysis Points to Important Research Gaps About the Impact of E-cigarettes
In addition, econometric research finds that smoking cessation product advertising and e-cigarette advertising increase smoking cessation attempts. 7, 8 If e-cigarettes were used in 50% of all quit attempts, and 60% of smokers attempt to quit each year, we calculate that the population rate of smoking cessation would increase by 204%, from 4.35 ...
