To examine available
clinical data about e-cigarette use and cessation among cancer patients, Jamie Ostroff, PhD, of the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in
New York City, and her colleagues
studied 1074 cancer patients who smoked and were enrolled between 2012 and 2013 in a tobacco treatment program
within a comprehensive cancer center.
In 2015, The Smithsonian Magazine discussed how one
clinical study observed that
within 20 minutes of feeding bacteria the nutrients they needed to grow, the bacteria then were able to produce
new proteins that could inhibit appetite.
