STUDY SHOWS E-CIGS BETTER THAN NICOTINE PATCHES TO HELP PREGNANT WOMEN STOP SMOKING

“The study included 1,140 pregnant women who were trying to stop smoking, who were divided into two groups. Half of the women received e-cigarettes; the other half received nicotine patches. Both approaches were equally safe. The only meaningful difference was that fewer women in the e-cigarette group had children with low birthweight (weighing less than 2,500 grams). The researchers say this is most likely because e-cigarettes were more effective in reducing the use of conventional cigarettes. At the end of their pregnancy, women reported whether they had quit. However, some women had quit smoking using a product they were not assigned, mostly women given patches, who stopped with the help of e-cigarettes they had procured for themselves. When the researchers looked at successful quitters who only used the treatment they were allocated, they found that almost twice as many women had quit with e-cigarettes as with nicotine patches.”

UNSCIENTIFIC ‘VAPING CAUSES LIVER DISEASE’ PSEUDO STUDY FINALLY RETRACTED AFTER OVER A YEAR BEING USED FOR FAKE ANTI-VAPING CLAIMS

“A study linking nicotine vapes to liver disease was retracted from Gastroenterology Research after the authors failed to reply to concerns about the researchers’ methods and findings. The retraction stated that “concerns have been raised regarding the article’s methodology, source data processing, including statistical analysis, and reliability of conclusions.” The study was published in June 2022. The 13 co-authors of the study drew from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey and analyzed participants’ responses for associations between liver disease and the use of cigarettes or vaping products. They claimed the results showed “e-cigarette users … were associated with higher odds of having liver disease compared to nonsmokers.” The data also didn’t allow for analysis around timing, which means it’s not possible to tell whether liver disease was developed before or after smoking/vaping.

“This is a greater problem than just one study,” said Gregory Conley, director of legislative and external affairs for the American Vapor Manufacturers Association, noting a 2020 retraction by the Journal of the American Heart Association of a study connecting vaping to heart attacks. The 2020 retraction letter to the journal was made public, but the issue with the Gastroenterology Research paper is less clear because “there is silence around why it was retracted,” said Conley.”

SOUTHEND, ESSEX, UK [Low Smoking Rate Thanks To Promoting The Switch From Smoking To Vaping]

“The city’s director of public health, Krishna Ramkhelawon¸ said consistent figures for helping people quit smoking are behind the belief that Southend is on target to achieve the target where under 5 per cent of people are smokers. He said: “The reason why they believe that is our success rate remains quite high for the number that we are getting through the service. It has remained over 40 per cent, where most places are dropping to 30 per cent in terms of quit rate. The approach we have taken since 2018 was to move people onto vaping, the reason being that the comparative data we had in 2017 was that using tobacco was more likely to give you other forms of diseases than vaping could.”

Vaping itself has since come under the spotlight with some raising concerns it may also be harmful, especially to young people. Mr Ramkhelawon added: “There was nothing to suggest what vaping could do and that’s the piece of work that’s ongoing. We introduced in 2019 the scheme where we encouraged people to go for vaping and quit smoking and I think that’s the main reason why we are seeing a high rate of tobacco quitters. The city’s stop smoking service includes 29 GPs and 11 pharmacists signed up to provide 12 weeks of support to quitters, with the latter offering a walk-in service. Four vape shops in the city are offering a Vape Swap Smoking Service which includes a free starter kit.”
