Several long-term observational studies have identified the potential impact of a gateway between the onset of tobacco use and the subsequent use of tobacco in adolescents. However, these findings may indicate a shared risk that the same young people who may be experimenting with electronic cigarettes may later smoke.
One way to avoid this is to choose to assess the impact on the human level rather than the individual level, using a method called time series analysis. Using this approach, the current study measured the effect of a ski portal by looking at the relationship between the prevalence of electronic cigarettes among young people and the increase in smoking in general, including people who have never smoke. Researchers speculate that if the effect of the gate is present, there should be a change in the number of people on the increase in smoking as the increase in smokers' exposure changes. Conversely, if the gate effect was not present, changes in e-cigarette use should not be associated with changes in smoking intake among young people.
The authors did not find a statistically significant correlation between the prevalence of e-cigarette use and have ever smoked (used as an indicator of taking) among those aged 16 to 24. To interpret this discovery continuously, the authors used aspects of the Bayes and the regions of firmness. The Bayes factors help to determine whether the unimportant findings are evidence of no difference or whether the study was not sufficiently sensitive to obtain a result. Strength regions indicate the size of the effect that can be explicitly dissipated. The authors were able to extract the effect of the gate from e-cigarette use in taking a cigarette size commonly reported in the literature but were unable to extract very small effects on the entrance gate or without smoking (where e-cigarette use makes it less likely for young people to start smoking).
Leading author Dr. Emma Beard states, "These findings suggest that the results of the large gate reported in previous studies may be excluded, especially among those aged 18 to 24. However, we will not produce a small gate effect and we have not studied small. of the 74 thousand smokers aged 16 to 17 in England, about 7,000 may be regular smokers due to the use of e-cigarettes. At the same time., approximately 50,000 smokers are estimated to quit each year due to electronic ".
These results are important in view of the unique advice given to health organizations and governments in various countries. related to non-smoking is inevitable, this study suggests that there is little evidence of a significant effect on smoking cessation
