TL;DR: For instance, this paper performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of longitudinal studies that assessed initial use of e-cigarettes and subsequent cigarette smoking, and found that e-cigarette use was associated with higher risk for subsequent smoking initiation and past 30-day cigarette smoking.

TL;DR: E-cigarette use in never-smoking youth may increase risk of subsequent initiation of cigarettes and other combustible products during the transition to adulthood when the purchase of tobacco products becomes legal.

TL;DR: Adolescent e‐cigarette users had increased rates of chronic bronchitic symptoms and further investigation is needed to determine the long‐term effects of e‐cigarettes on respiratory health.

TL;DR: Psychosocial factors (home use of each product, friends’ use of and positive attitudes toward e-cigarettes and cigarettes) and participant perception of the harm of e-cigarette were strongly positively associated both with e- cigarette and cigarette use.

TL;DR: T tobacco-naive youths who initiate e-cigarettes may be at greater risk of subsequently initiating cigarette smoking, according to this cohort study using data from the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health Study (2013-2016).
