STUART-AGUIAR, Alexandra; CERVERA-ROSADO, Andrea; FUENTES-CANTO, Nicte-Há y HUCHIM-LARA, Oswaldo. Effects of passive exposure to aerosol from electronic cigarettes: a review. Medicas UIS [online]. 2022, vol.35, n.2, e401. Epub 03-Dic-2022. ISSN 0121-0319. https://doi.org/10.18273/revmed.v35n2-2022006.
Electronic cigarettes replaced the tobacco leaf in conventional cigarettes with an e-liquid composed of multiple organic compounds; these entered the market without major preclinical toxicological tests or safety trials worldwide. Generating a large number of people exposed to second-hand aerosol, to whom the possible risks have not yet been elucidated. The objective of this review was to identify the health risks of people exposed to second-hand aerosol from electronic cigarettes. The review was carried out using PubMed, Scielo and EBSCO databases, including studies carried out in humans, animals and invitro. The main findings were exacerbations of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pro-inflammatory effects, oxidative stress and anxiety. Evidence found adverse effects in people exposed to second-hand aerosol from electronic cigarettes; highlighting exacerbations of asthma, hypersensitivity pneumonitis, inflammation and oxidative stress.
