=== 2023: [https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37182238/ Awareness and beliefs about FDA e-cigarette regulation in the premarket application review era.] ===
* A survey of awareness and attitudes about regulation of e-cigarettes, among adults who smoke and youth (15-20):
* Awareness that FDA regulates e-cigarettes was low among adults who smoke (25.4 %) and youth (18.5 %). Awareness that FDA authorizes e-cigarettes was also low among adults who smoke (10.8 %) and youth (12.7 %).
* Additionally, participants were asked about two positive beliefs regarding regulation (“agree that FDA regulation makes e-cigarettes safer”, ~40%; “agree that FDA regulation helps prevent youth uptake”, ~25%), and two negative beliefs (“agree that FDA regulation takes away freedom to choose”, ~20%; “agree that FDA regulation limits choices”, ~40%). Current e-cigarette use was associated with higher odds of agreeing to each item (both positive and negative beliefs).
* Seems to indicate a lot of confusion about regulation, and responses that are not always consistent (e.g. the two negative beliefs are both about choice, but have very different rates of endorsement).
* Again this is very timely considering conversations during this week’s E-Cig Summit: given the low awareness of e-cigarettes among the population who would benefit most from them (adults who smoke), seems like a prime opportunity for some communication from FDA about authorized e-cigarette products.
