A study by ASHRAE verifies the safety profile of e-cigarettes, but authors fail to admit it
By Dr Farsalinos
There are a lot of discussions in the social media about a publication by theAmerican Society for Heating, Refrigeration, and Air Conditioning Engineering (ASHRAE) concerning e-cigarette safety. The study was published in ASHRAE Journal, and obviously it was not peer-reviewed. Several methodological mistakes have been found in this paper, which need to be clarified. In reality, the paper verifies that e-cigarettes are by far less harmful that tobacco cigarettes, but the authors fail to admit it and make erroneous conclusions and suggestions.
