Risk of stroke with e-cigarette and combustible cigarette use in young adults

American Journal of Preventive Medicine Jan 11, 2020

Parekh T, et al. - Researchers assessed the risk of stroke in relation to e-cigarette use with or without a history of prior or concurrent combustible cigarette use among young adults. For this purpose, they studied pooled data (2016–2017) from a nationally representative, cross-sectional telephone survey—the Behavior Risk Factor Surveillance System—in 2019. They analyzed overall 161,529 participants aged 18–44 years. Findings revealed no link between sole e-cigarette use and greater odds of stroke in young adults. However, experts found significantly increased odds of stroke if former or current combustible cigarette use was reported by young adults even in comparison with current sole combustible cigarette use. No stroke benefits were conferred by switching from combustible cigarettes to e-cigarettes.
