August 25, 2021Differential Effects of Electronic Hookah Vaping and Traditional Combustible Hookah Smoking on Oxidation, Inflammation, and Arterial Stiffness
A group led by Mary Rezk-Hanna of the University of California described differential effects of electronic hookah vaping and traditional combustible hookah smoking on oxidation, inflammation, and arterial stiffness. The group found that e-hookah vaping induced an acute increase in augmentation index and elevated proinflammatory biomarkers, suggesting e-hookah vaping may have injurious effects on the vasculature mediated by inflammation.
