Liste der Studien zum Thema E-Zigarette (Stand: Januar 2015)

3. Februar 2015 / Rursus / 8 Comments

Immer wieder hört und liest man in den Medien, dass „so gut wie keine wissenschaftlichen Studien zu E-Zigaretten existieren.“ bzw. „eine zu dürftige Datenlage zu E-Zigaretten“ vorherrscht, um „eine abschließende Beurteilung vorzunehmen“.

Um dieser immer wieder kolportierten Behauptung auf den Grund zu gehen, muss man sich lediglich vor Augen führen, dass die E-Zigarette bereits seit 10 Jahren auf dem freien Markt verfügbar ist.

Namhafte Wissenschaftler aus aller Welt wie M. Laugesen, Z. Cahn, T. Eissenberg, M. Siegel, C. Bullen, J.-F. Etter, R. West, K. Farsalinos und viele andere, welche unter anderem mit der WHO und vielen staatlichen Behörden zusammenarbeiten, haben die E-Zigarette und ihre Komponenten seit vielen Jahren im Fokus und untersuchen diese.

Um die eingangs aufgeführten Behauptungen ad absurdum zu führen, will ich hier eine Auswahl der (meiner Meinung nach) wichtigsten wissenschaftlichen Veröffentlichungen zum Thema E-Zigarette aufführen, die sich während der letzten Jahre auf meiner Festplatte angesammelt haben:

Dies ist lediglich eine kleine Auswahl der bisher veröffentlichten wissenschaftlichen Arbeiten. Im Juli 2014 wurde eine Übersichtsarbeit veröffentlicht, in der die bisher publizierten Artikel mit dem Hauptthema „E-Zigarette“ betrachtet wurden. Die Forscher kamen zu dem Ergebnis, dass bis Juni 2014 insgesamt 356 wissenschaftliche Studien und andere wissenschaftliche Arbeiten veröffentlicht worden sind.1

Nicht berücksichtigt haben Zyoud und Kollegen Forschungsarbeiten zu den Inhaltsstoffen (z.B. Propylenglykol, Glycerin, Nicotin, usw.). Diese Arbeit hatte Burstyn bereits im Jahr 2013 erledigt – Er identifizierte knapp 9000 Quellen (von variabler Qualität) zum Thema E-Zigaretten bzw. deren Inhaltsstoffen.2

Wer aufgrund dieser Datenlage behauptet: „Es gibt nicht genügend Studien“, hat vermutlich ein Augenproblem.

    Hi Rursus,

    ich hoffe du kannst verstehen, dass man sich jetzt nicht jede Studie einzeln durchlesen kann. Gibt es eine Übersicht von den Ergebnissen der Studien?

    Grüße

      Hallo Paddy!

      Das wären dann die sog. „Reviews“. Auch von solchen ist in der Liste zu lesen.

      Zum Beispiel:

      6 Hajek P (2014) – Electronic cigarettes have a potential for huge public health benefit – BMC Medicine (2014)
      9 McRobbie H, Bullen C et al. (2014) – Electronic cigarettes for smoking cessation and reduction – Cochrane Library (2014)

      oder auch

      „The emerging phenomenon of electronic cigarettes“ von Caponnetto et al.
      „Achieving appropriate regulations for electronic cigarettes.“ von Polosa et al.

      ein eher unrühmliches Beispiel für ein Review ist

      „E-Cigarettes – A Scientific Review“ von Grana und Glantz et al.

      Unrühmlich deshalb, weil Grana und Glantz hier „Cherrypicking“ betrieben und nichts unversucht gelassen haben, um die E-Zigarette und deren Komponenten in einem möglichst schlechten Licht zu betrachten.

    Danke, danke, DANKE, dass es dich gibt!
    Ich verfolge schon lange deinen Blog und als ich dein .pdf-Dokument zu „“Fakten zur eZigarette“ laß, war mir klar, ich muss dir endlich meinen Dank aussprechen.
    Es gibt wohl kaum jemanden, der so scharfsinning Fakten für jedermann verständlich zusammenträgt und diese ungehemmt teilt.
    Ich selbst habe zwar Zugang zu wissenschaftlichen „not open access“ Artikel, jedoch keine Zeit mir alles anzueignen. Und damit stehe ich nicht alleine!
    Danke, dass du bist, wie du bist und DANKE im Namen aller Befürworter für deine Seite und dein Engagement!

    Du bist klasse! Weiter so!

    Sorry, ich hoffe, mit dem Link klappt es:
    http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25770433
    Leider habe ich mich bei einem zentralen Satz verlesen. Im Abstract heißt es: „E-cigarettes could counteract the process of denormalization of smoking.“ Beim flüchtigen Querlesen habe ich aber aus „denormalization“ leider gedanklich „renormalization“ gemacht.

      Vielen Dank!

      Trotz der Wischiwaschiaussage am Ende, hat dieses Paper doch etwas von Wert:

      127 (4,7 Prozent) der befragten 2693 Schüler hatten schon einmal eine E-Zigarette ausprobiert.
      30 (23,8 Prozent) der 127 hatten zwar eine E-Zigarette ausprobiert aber noch nie an einer Tabakzigarette gezogen – Das wären dann gerade mal knapp 1,1 Prozent der 2693 Schüler.

      Dem gegenüber stehen die 496 (18,4 Prozent) der 2693, die schon mal eine Tabakzigarette ausprobiert haben.

      Lustig ist, dass die Autoren hier zwar schreiben, dass das Ausprobieren von Tabakzigaretten vermutlich nicht zum E-Zigarettenkonsum führt aber die wichtige Frage „Führen E-Zigaretten zu Tabakzigaretten“ völlig nebenbei liegen lassen aber dafür (ohne Begründung und Datenbasis) am Ende schreiben, dass E-Zigaretten den Prozess des „Denormalisierens von Tabakzigaretten“ untergraben könnten.

      Schade, von Hanewinkel hätte ich etwas „Handfesteres“ erwartet.

      Tja, da helfen auch keine Darstellungstricks: Lediglich 1,1 Prozent der betrachteten 2693 Schüler, hatten schon einmal eine E-Zigarette ausprobiert und waren (sind!) Nichtraucher.

      Gruss
      Rursus

      PS Übrigens gefällt mir der (sehr informative und gründlich recherchierte) Artikel (vom 11. Februar 2015) zum Thema E-Zigaretten!
