E-Cigarettes and Associated Health Risks: An Update on Cancer Potential
ADVANCES IN RESPIRATORY MEDICINE(2023)
Abstract
Highlights What are the main findings? Due to the possibility of dangerous chemicals and flavorings in the aerosol, there is evidence to suggest that using e-cigarettes may raise the risk of cancer as well as other ailments including cardiovascular and respiratory disease It's crucial to use caution when utilizing e-cigarettes and to think about other options for quitting smoking. What is the implication of the main finding? Although there may not be many advantages to using e-cigarettes to help people quit smoking, users should carefully examine the potential risks involved before using them, including the possibility of developing cancer. The long-term cancer risk linked to e-cigarette usage is yet unknown. On the other hand, the review will provide the investigator with more recent information on e-cigarettes.Highlights What are the main findings?

E-Cigarettes work by heating a liquid that usually contains nicotine, flavorings, and other chemicals. When the liquid is heated, users inhale an aerosol into their lungs. While e-cigarettes are generally considered less harmful than traditional tobacco products, they still contain potentially harmful chemicals, which can damage DNA and lead to cancer. Several studies have investigated the potential cancer risk associated with e-cigarette use, while other studies have suggested that e-cigarette aerosol may contain carcinogenic chemicals that could increase the risk of lung and bladder cancer in humans. However, these studies are limited in their scope and do not provide conclusive evidence. Overall, the long-term cancer risk associated with e-cigarette use remains uncertain, more research is needed to fully understand the potential risks and benefits of e-cigarettes. However, this review will allow the investigator to get more recent updates about e-cigarettes.
