Can e-cigarettes help to quit smoking: authoritative medical institutions give answers

The latest research shows that e-cigarettes can help smokers quit smoking, and in the short to medium term will not cause side effects.

The study came from the medical research organization The Cochrane Collaboration, which they claimed had found evidence.

E-cigarettes are becoming more and more popular because of fashion and pollution-free. In the United States alone, about 2 million smokers smoke electronic cigarettes. At the same time, e-cigarettes are highly controversial, and people are questioning its safety, fearing it is harmful to health; and it may also adversely affect smoking cessation services.

"From the current limited information we can know that electronic cigarettes containing nicotine can help smokers quit," Jamie Hartmann-Boyce said. She is from Oxford University and is a co-author of the Cochrane cessation study.

"From the short- to medium-term data, e-cigarettes do not induce serious side effects," she added.

This echoes the results of the first study that Cochran did in 2014.

Can e-cigarettes help to quit smoking: authoritative medical institutions give answers

After two randomized controlled trials of more than 660 people, they found that nicotine-containing e-cigarettes can increase the chances of smokers quit smoking: 9% of smokers who smoke nicotine-containing e-cigarettes can quit for at least 6 months; Only 4% of smokers who smoke nicotine-free e-cigarettes can do it. However, whether e-cigarettes are more effective than other methods (such as nicotine patches), we still don't know.

Cochran has conducted 11 studies, but no randomized controlled trials have been conducted. Cochrane said that the use of e-cigarettes for more than two years did not cause serious side effects.

"The really good news from this research is that more relevant research is underway," Hartmann-Boyce said. “I hope that in the next few years, there will be more research results to support our conclusions.”
