Influence of Different Sources of Nicotine Delivery on Prognosis in Smoking Patients With Myocardial Infarction and Lung Cancer - Elizaveta Skorodumova

The study showed that smoking is an important factor affecting the clinical course of myocardial infarction. Patients smoking traditional cigarettes have a higher risk of death from myocardial infarction, whereas smoking heated tobacco systems is associated with a less severe clinical course of myocardial infarction, and the phenotype of these patients is closer to that of nonsmoking patients. The results of this study emphasize the importance of risk factor control and lifestyle modification to improve the prognosis of these patients Thus, for people with severe nicotine dependence, less harmful innovative nicotine delivery methods, such as electronic nicotine delivery systems and electric tobacco heating systems that do not burn and therefore do not emit smoke containing carcinogens and toxic substances, can be used as part of the transition to complete smoking cessation. It is important to note that these products must be legal, certified and have scientific studies proving that they are less harmful.
