No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Because e-cigarettes do not contain or burn tobacco, they do not appear to deliver the known toxins found in conventional cigarette smoke.However e-Cigarettes with low dose of tobacco were found to have immediate adverse physiologic effects after short-term use that are similar to some of the effects seen with tobacco smoking.

In this study we wanted to assess the short-time effect of one e-cigarette with no tobacco vs a "traditional" cigarette.

10 n-smoking subject and 10 actual smokers will be enrolled in the randomized trial.
