An American study published in the journal Nicotine & Tobacco Research on 26/11/2021 has just confirmed the usefulness of vaping, with sufficient nicotine delivery, for smoking cessation, even for people who do not wish to stop smoking completely.
The study, led by Professor Foulds, took place over 24 weeks in Pennsylvania at Penn State Medical Center and in Virginia at the University of Richmond.
The 520 participants were randomly divided into 4 groups in a double-blind way.
The study did not set out to investigate potential smoking cessation in the participants, but only to calculate the number of cigarettes smoked in parallel with the device and the level of carbon monoxide exhaled, with check-ups during regular visits over the course of 24 weeks.
After 6 months, the study results were surprising. In the group of 130 participants who received an e-liquid containing 36mg of nicotine, 10.8% of the participants in this group had spontaneously stopped smoking. This drops to 4.6% for the 8mg/ml group and 0.8% among the participants who received 0mg of nicotine.
What can we learn from this study ?
If studies have already been conducted to determine the impact of vaping on smoking cessation in people wishing to stop smoking, the originality of this study lies in the fact of knowing the role of vaping in the cessation of smoking in people who have shown no intention of quitting smoking, but simply to reduce their consumption. In fact, the participants in this study were recruited based on adult smokers who only wanted to reduce their tobacco consumption thanks to the electronic cigarette, with no intention of stopping completely.
The study was conducted over a short period of time (24 weeks) with smokers who had no intention of quitting, and despite this, the results are very encouraging. Extrapolating the results of this study on the long term, to smokers who want to quit smoking completely, could reveal a significant level of smoking cessation. Other studies have already demonstrated the effectiveness of e-cigarettes compared to other nicotine substitutes when trying to quit smoking.
The higher the nicotine level the "vaping-smoker" receives, providing similar sensations to a traditional cigarette, the smoother and long-lasting the transition to e cigarettes will be. Once he exclusively vapes, he will be able to turn to flavours that are further and further away from tobacco.
