This federal Project Grant award of $549,555.45 from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of the Director under the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act Regulatory Research program (CFDA 93.077) supports a cross-sectional study to investigate the exposure and toxicity of chemical constituents of concern, namely metals and aldehydes, as well as the pulmonary health effects, including inflammation, of using new and emerging electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) devices among young adults.

The key objectives are to: 1) evaluate the relationship between e-cigarette use and exposure to chemical constituents of concern and their effects, 2) assess the association of e-cigarette use with respiratory outcomes and inflammatory markers, and 3) assess chemical constituent exposure as a potential mediator in e-cigarette-related respiratory health outcomes. The award period is from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2027. A sub-award of an unspecified amount to The Johns Hopkins University will support research on the potential for chemical contaminants related to plastic manufacturing to leach from disposable e-cigarette devices and expose users.
