Official title
Investigating the Cardiovascular Toxicity of Exposure to Electronic Hookah Smoking
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Hookah (water-pipe) tobacco smoking has quickly grown to become a major global tobacco epidemic among youth; with electronic (e-) hookahs more recently increasing in popularity especially among young female adults, who endorse marketing claims that these products are a safer alternative to traditional hookah, but scientific evidence is lacking. The study aims to elucidate the comparative effects of traditional hookah smoking vs. e-hookah vaping on human vascular and endothelial function; and examine the role of inflammation and oxidative stress, as likely mechanisms in hookah-related cardiovascular disease pathogenesis.
