The Immediate Physiological Effects of E-Cigarette Use and Exposure to Secondhand E-Cigarette Vapor.

Background: Vaping continues to grow as an alternative to smoking and as a recreational activity for people of all ages, including minors. The billion-dollar industry offers users a plethora of flavors, nicotine concentrations, e-juice combinations, and devices. While some studies suggest vaping is beneficial for certain ailments and as a smoking cessation tool, many studies report concerning health outcomes associated with vape use.

Effects on vital signs after twenty minutes of vaping compared to people exposed to second-hand vapor.

Introduction: Very little is known about the immediate physiological implications of vaping or inhaling second-hand vapor. This study used a quantitative approach to understand the short-term physiological implications of vape use and exposure to sec-ond-hand vapor for people who do not vape.

Material And Methods: One hundred and forty-eight people participated in the study, 75 self-identified as non-vapers and 73 self-identified as people who vape.

Complete Genome Sequences of Cluster G Mycobacteriophage Darionha, Cluster A Mycobacteriophage Salz, and Cluster J Mycobacteriophage ThreeRngTarjay.

Mycobacteriophages Darionha, Salz, and ThreeRngTarjay are mycobacteriophages isolated using the host mc155. Following isolation from soil samples, all three siphoviridae phages were characterized, and their genomes were sequenced and annotated.
