ScienceDaily shared early results from the e-cigarette and vaping product study led by Robert A. Kloner, MD, PhD, chief science officer for Huntington Medical Research Institutes (HMRI) and professor of Medicine at USC, and Michael Kleinman, PhD, professor of occupational and environmental medicine at the University of California, Irvine’s School of Medicine and member of the UCI Center for Occupational and Environmental Health. The study, which aimed to explore the effect of e-cigarette and other vaping product use on the cardiovascular system, showed that the heating element in vaping devices can cause lung injury.
