To evaluate the relationship between electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) use and the risk of stroke when compared to non-smokers.
A comprehensive search was conducted until June 15, 2023. We included observational studies that assessed association of current or former usage of ENDS with risk of stroke compared with non-smokers, reported the risk estimate as odds ratio (OR) or hazard ratio (HR) and were adjusted for possible confounders.
6 studies with 1,024,401 participants were included in our analysis. ENDS use was associated with a significant increased risk of stroke (OR = 1.52; 95% CI: 1.17-1.97) compared with non-users. A non-significant association was found between former ENDS use and risk of stroke (OR = 1.03; 95% CI: 0.87-1.21).
The ENDS usage appears to be associated with a higher risk of stroke compared to non-use, whereas there was no association between former ENDS use and the risk of stroke.
与不吸烟者相比,评估使用电子尼古丁传送系统(ENDS)与中风风险之间的关系。
截至2023年6月15日进行了全面检索。我们纳入了观察性研究,这些研究评估了当前或以前使用ENDS与不吸烟者相比的中风风险关联,将风险估计报告为比值比(OR)或风险比(HR),并对可能的混杂因素进行了调整。
我们的分析纳入了6项研究,共1,024,401名参与者。与未使用者相比,使用ENDS与中风风险显著增加相关(OR = 1.52;95%置信区间:1.17 - 1.97)。以前使用ENDS与中风风险之间未发现显著关联(OR = 1.03;95%置信区间:0.87 - 1.21)。
与不使用相比,使用ENDS似乎与更高的中风风险相关,而以前使用ENDS与中风风险之间没有关联。
