Abstract in brief

  • The study found that young people who vape or both vape and smoke are more likely to report respiratory symptoms like shortness of breath, wheezing, or cough compared to those who only smoke or don't use either product.
  • Different vaping behaviors, such as current vaping, experimentation, and regular use, are linked to higher chances of experiencing respiratory issues, with nicotine salt use and certain flavors (like fruit or multiple flavors) also increasing the risk.
  • Overall, vaping is associated with increased respiratory symptoms among youth in Canada, England, and the US, regardless of the type of device or flavor used.]
