Using e-cigarettes can significantly increase the risk of asthma.
By Dr. Sanchari Sinha Dutta, Ph.D.Sep 5 2023Reviewed by Lily Ramsey, LLM A study published in the Preventive Medicine Journal finds that using e-cigarettes can significantly increase the risk of asthma among US adolescents who have never used other combustible products.
The short-term effects of e-cigarette use include dry cough, throat and mouth irritation, headache, and nausea, and long-term consequences include cardiovascular and respiratory complications and memory impairment. Study design The study analyzed the data collected from the Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System, which was established in 1990 to monitor health-related behaviors and experiences of children and adolescents and to estimate the prevalence of major diseases, disabilities, mortality, social issues, and their associated risk factors among youth in the United States.
Important observations About 44% and 13% of adolescents in Texas reported constantly and currently using e-cigarettes, respectively. E-cigarette use was lower among Hispanic adolescents than among White adolescents. Regarding current e-cigarette use, significant associations were observed with older age, White race, being overweight, and a history of combustible and other substance use.
