Description
Andrei Osman and co-authors reviewed studies from 2023 on how e-cigarette use relates to hormone and metabolism problems. The team searched for original clinical studies in English published between early 2020 and mid-2023, and kept twenty-two of them. Case reports and lab experiments were left out, so the review rests on data from real people.
Findings were mixed. Some large studies linked dual use of e-cigarettes and normal cigarettes to a higher risk of prediabetes, while one very large study found no such link. Six studies looked at body weight, and four found ties between vaping and obesity. Data on a cluster of risks called metabolic syndrome were thin. The authors urge doctors to ask patients about vaping and say the full health picture is not yet settled.
