Oxford, Harvard and other university research institutes confirm, that e-cigarettes are more effective than nicotine replacement therapy in smoking cessation
Recently, research institutions such as Oxford University, die Maryknoll University of London, die Auckland University, the Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School as well as Lanzhou University and McMaster University in Canada published two papers, in which they came to the conclusion based on experiments and data collection, that e-cigarettes have a better effect on smoking cessation than cigarettes, that they have less harmful effects and that the smoking cessation effect is even better than nicotine replacement therapy.
With estimated 1,3 billion smokers worldwide, which every year more than 8 cause millions of deaths, Smoking is one of the biggest threats to public health, that the world has ever faced. Nicotine replacement therapy is an internationally recognized method for smoking cessation, where patches mainly contain nicotine, Chewing gum, Lozenges and other products are used, to replace cigarettes and support smokers in achieving the goal of quitting smoking.
One on the renowned literature site TID (Tobacco Induced Diseases) published work by researchers at Lanzhou University and McMaster University in Canada shows, that e-cigarettes have better withdrawal rates than nicotine replacement therapy. The study, based on a study 1.748 Test subjects based, came to the conclusion, that e-cigarettes are nicotine replacement therapy for both >6-monthly continuous abstinence rate as well as the 7-day abstinence rate.
To date, there is no more effective method for quitting smoking than e-cigarettes and nicotine replacement therapies, which have been largely proven by scientists. Aside from throat irritation, the adverse effects of both modalities are not significant.
In addition, researchers from the University of Oxford, der Queen Mary University of London, der University of Auckland, Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School jointly published a research article on the literature website Wiley Online Library, in which they analyze a follow-up survey of people, who use e-cigarettes to quit smoking. The study assumes this, that the scientific community generally agrees, that e-cigarettes are far less risky than burning tobacco, and she wanted to investigate using comparative data, whether the risks to humans could be reduced by quitting smoking using e-cigarettes. For this purpose, the researchers divided a sample of 1 299 People from Greece, Italy, Poland, the United Kingdom and the United States in persons, who only smoke e-cigarettes, smokers and people, who use a combination of e-cigarettes and cigarettes.
The results showed, that at 13 Biomarkers for potential harm in the pure e-cigarette group 12 had lower indicators than the smoking group and at 25 Biomarkers for potential harm in the pure e-cigarette group 5 had lower indicators than the e-cigarette-cigarette combination group. Potentially harmful biomarkers with lower indicators included 3-hydroxypropyl mercapturic acid, 2-Cyanoethyl mercapturic acid and o-toluidine.
The study concluded, that the use of E-cigarettes as a replacement for cigarettes or a combination of e-cigarettes and cigarettes can effectively reduce the risk to humans.
