Discussion: history repeated
Cigarettes, 1958 E-Cigarettes, 2013
Discussion: new developmentsEnglish study found e-cigarettes were more strongly associated with cigarette abstinence than over-the-counter nicotine replacement therapy
Possible explanations…
- English study not of general population – limited to people using e-cigarettes for cessation
- English study notes rising e-cigarette popularity coincides with declining cigarette smoking – not the case in Kansas
- May indicate most e-cigarette users are not using e-cigarettes to aid cessation
Brown, Beard, Kotz, Michie, & West, 2014
In summation• E-cigarettes strongly associated with
cigarette smoking
• Comparisons have been drawn between historic cigarette advertising and current e-cigarette advertising
• Adults who have only tried e-cigarettes are younger and more affluent than those who only smoke cigarettes
• People are using e-cigarettes as cessation aids regardless of inconclusive evidence
• E-cigarette use among cigarette smokers is associated with quit attempts, but not using e-cigarettes is associated with abstinence

Limitations
• Data are cross-sectional
• Cannot describe temporal relationships such as transitions from one product to another
• Bias due to under or over reporting is unknown
• Data are from general surveillance tools – covariates critical for discussing addiction and cessation are lacking
