The Case in Favor of E-Cigarettes for Tobacco Harm Reduction
Joel L. Nitzkin
International Journal of Enviromental Research and Public Health: Videnskabelig artikel (2014)

”Tiden er inde til at tilføje harm reduction (skadesreduktion) elementet til tobakskontrol, med e-cigaretten som det primære element. Skadesreduktion er den eneste mulige politik, for at reducere tobaksrelateret sygdom og død i USA over de næste 20 år. Skadesreduktion, sammen med e-cigaretter, kan hjælpe med at stoppe teenageres begyndende nikotinbrug og hjælpe med at øge antallet af rygestopforsøg.  Skadesreduktion er specielt vigtigt for de rygere der ikke er i stand til at stoppe, eller som ikke ønsker at stoppe, på grund af de fordele de får fra ikke receptpligtig selvadministreret nikotin.”

Determinants and prevalence of e-cigarette use throughout the European Union: a secondary analysis of 26 566 youth and adults from 27 Countries

“Ved at analysere en undersøgelse fra 2012, der involverede 26.500 forbrugere i 27 europæiske lande, så fandt Constantine Vardavas og hans kollegaer fra Harvard School of Public Health ud af, at den største koncentration af e-dampere (forbrugere af e-cigaretter) var yngre mennesker med et højt forbrug af cigaretter, men som ønskede at stoppe med at ryge. På trods af, at forbruget af e-cigaretter var højest i gruppen af 15-24 årige, så viser forskergruppens data, at e-cigaretter ikke frister ikke-rygere, unge som gamle. Ca. 20 % af nuværende rygere havde prøvet e-cigaretter mindst én gang, mens blot 4 % eks-rygere og 1,1 % ikke rygere havde prøvet en e-cigaret.”

Effect of Smoking Abstinence and Reduction in Asthmatic Smokers Switching to Electronic Cigarettes: Evidence for Harm Reversal

“E-cigaretten kan hjælpe rygere med astma med at reducere deres forbrug af cigaretter eller helt stoppe; og dermed reducere byrden af rygerelateret astma symptomer. De positive resultater med e-cigaretter, gør at e-cigaretter kan være et værdifuldt redskab mht. rygestop og til at reducere skadesvirkningerne bl.a. også for astma patienter der ryger.”

Fremtidige undersøgelser kunne med fordel kvantificere nikotin levering i relation til inhalation teknik og forholdet til en vellykket rygestop / skadesreduktion.
