Thank you.
Most research on e-cigs is done on former smokers because, as you mentioned, a large portion of users have some sort of smoking history.
What kind of research are you referring to, if I may ask? If scientific medical research, I haven't seen much new research being done (and published) recently (after 2017-18 articles published in Jama and Lancet). We here and CASAA do monitor such research very closely.
I do not count, of course, the infamous paper authored by totally disgraced "researchers" from UCSF Glanz and Bhatta, which has been retracted by JAHA due to serious malfeasance by the said authors.
Vaping study retracted: Scientists want probe of UCSF tobacco research
American Heart Association Journal Finally Retracts Study Implying That E-Cigarettes Cause Heart Attacks Before People Use Them
We're just trying to broaden the scope of e-cig research.![]()
How exactly are you going to accomplish that? By chatting with anonymous people on the Internet and taking their answers at face value without any possibility to verify their age, sex, identity, and past and present smoking history? I'm not trying to be difficult, I'm just not familiar with this type of research. What's your thesis about? What's your hypothesis? Methodology? Is it a research or survey?
