Since commercial development in 2003, the usage of modern electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) continues to increase amongst people who have never smoked, ex-smokers who have switched to e-cigarettes, and dual-users of both conventional cigarettes and e-cigarettes. With such an increase in use, knowledge of the irritative, toxic and potential carcinogenic effects on the lungs is increasing. This review article will discuss the background of e-cigarettes, vaping devices and explore their popularity. We will further summarise the available literature describing the mechanism of lung injury caused by e-cigarette or vaping use.
自 2003 年商业化以来，越来越多从未吸烟、已戒烟者改用电子烟以及同时使用传统香烟和电子烟的双重使用者开始使用现代电子烟（电子烟）。随着使用量的增加，人们对电子烟对肺部的刺激性、毒性和潜在致癌作用的认识也在不断提高。本文将讨论电子烟、蒸气设备的背景，并探讨它们的普及程度。我们将进一步总结描述电子烟或蒸气使用引起肺损伤的机制的现有文献。
