Consumers for e-cigarettes should not have an exaggerated hope to completely escape the smoke lung problems as “vaper”. An experiment by Swedish and Austrian scientists has shown that e-cigarettes with nicotine rapidly lead to an increase in pneumon clearing markers in the blood.
The study is now published in the magazine “Respiratory Medicine”. Mikael cable from the Department of Public Health and Clinical Medicine at the Swedish University of Umea and the co-authors, including Lukas Antonwicz from the University Clinic or Inner Medicine II of the Meduni Vienna (AKH): “Smoking cigarettes is one of the most common causes of less perception.
However, much is still unknown about the health effects of these new products. According to the authors, the aim of this study would have been to investigate whether e-cigarettes could cause pneumonia reactions.
Healthy volunteers as topics
22 healthy volunteers were played for the tests. In a decision with a double style process that was used randomly, all test subjects used e-cigarettes (30 trains from the e-cigarette aerosol) with or without nicotine. Finally, the smallest blisters (blisters) that appeared in the blood were analyzed at the start of the lungs, after 30 and 105 minutes after the experiment in the blood. This was performed on six pneumon industry markers, for example angiotensin over enzyme (ACE), aldehydehydrogenase 3B1, complement factor C3 or the macro layer infection protein 1 alfa (mip-1alpha).
“All these markers are associated with pneumonia,” the scientists wrote. If “healthy” for the lungs, as some “vaper” should imagine, the e-cigarettes are not according to the results of the study: “The consumption of e-cigarettes, but not without nicotine, led to a significant increase in three of the six lung-related inflammatory markers and to significant, the other three.”
Nicotine does not work “Only” on the brain
Although Nicotine is best known for its effects on the brain, including addiction, he must also play a role in the development of inflammatory processes in the lungs. “The observed increase in the values of circulating, lung-related inflammatory markers after breathing nicotine-containing e-cigarettes aerosol suggests that inhaling nicotine plays a central role in activating inflammatory processes in the lungs,” the scientists wrote.
Another conclusion between the authors: “On recommendation of nicotine-containing e-cigarettes as a means to quit smoking, caution is required.” Apparently this applies not only because of the dependence on nicotine, but also because of a harmful effect of e-cigarettes on the lungs, despite an exemption from cigarettes with their smoke ingredients.
