Background: Prior research has discovered an association between vaping activities and increased delinquent behaviors. However, this relationship has been exclusively studied among adolescents and has not been examined among an adult sample. Methods: The current study uses a nationally representative sample of approximately 45,000 adults from the 2021 National Survey on Drug Use and Health.
Many Canadians use nicotine products such as cigarettes and e-cigarettes. A particular subpopulation of concern is post-secondary students given they have a higher prevalence of use. Many correlates of cigarette smoking and e-cigarette use have been identified. However, less focus has been on examining the correlates of cigarette smoking, e-cigarette use and dual use.
Introduction: The prevalence of adolescent nicotine vaping declined substantially after the COVID-19 pandemic onset in the U.S. during the Spring of 2020. This study examines whether the decline continued from 2022 to 2023, and the extent to which any decline reflects the lasting influence of lowered levels of initiation three years earlier, at the onset of the pandemic.
E-cigarettes and vaping products were first introduced in the United States around 2007, and quickly grew in popularity. By 2014, e-cigarettes had become the most commonly used tobacco product among youth in the United States. An e-cigarette, or vaping, product use-associated lung injury (EVALI) outbreak was identified by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in 2019, with many cases in the adolescent population.
The popularity of electronic cigarettes among young people in Switzerland has been increasing since the introduction of puffs to the market. According to recent epidemiological data, more than half of 14-25 year olds have tried these devices, potentially exposing themselves to nicotine and substances with little-known long-term effects. This phenomenon raises concerns regarding health risks and the developmental phase during which these consumptions occur. Primary care physicians have a crucial role to play in managing these consumptions through an integrated approach.
Purpose: To investigate the attitudes, beliefs and perceptions of people diagnosed with cancer and health practitioners on use of nicotine vaping products.
Background: Tobacco smoking affects women's fertility and is associated with substantial risks of adverse pregnancy outcomes. This study explored trends by socioeconomic position in patterns of smoking, use of non-combustible nicotine products, and quitting activity among women of reproductive age in England.
