This study aimed to assess the prevalence of chronic disease risk factors among college students, particularly within a minority-serving institution in Delaware, to inform targeted prevention efforts. A quantitative cross-sectional research design was employed, administering surveys to 457 students at Delaware State University over a three-year period. Surveys assessed tobacco use, physical activity, and dietary habits.

Adolescent school connectedness generally protects from risk behaviors such as tobacco use; however, its relationship to e-cigarette use is unclear. This study examines the relationship between adolescent school connectedness and e-cigarette susceptibility in a diverse longitudinal sample. This secondary analysis of a school-based intervention surveyed 608 middle (66%) and high school (34%) students from 10 schools at 3 time points over 1 year.

Objectives: This study characterized variation in e-cigarette use patterns and related protective factors by ethnicity among Asian American adolescents.
Methods: Multivariable logistic regressions modelled associations between ethnic group, 6 protective factors (college aspirations, internal developmental assets, positive teacher engagement, family caring, and peer and parent anti-smoking norms), and past 30-day e-cigarette use, adjusting for covariates among 10,482 8th, 9th, and 11th grade Asian American respondents to the 2019 Minnesota Student Survey. Interaction terms (protective factor × ethnic group) were used in 6 subsequent regression models to examine whether the association between each protective factor and e-cigarette use differed as a function of ethnic group.

In recent years, vaping has increased in both popularity and ease of access. This has led to an outbreak of a relatively new condition known as e-cigarette/vaping-associated lung injury (EVALI). This injury can be caused by physical interactions between the pulmonary surfactant (PS) in the lungs and toxins typically found in vaping solutions, such as medium chain triglycerides (MCT).

Background: Nationally representative self-report studies are the standard for data on the prevalence of substance use. Newly emerging biomarker assessments can add objective measurements of exposure. However, biomarker assessment has typically depended on in-person sample collection.
