Study Summary

This study comprises a portion of a larger study designed to compare results of vascular function in non-smokers to vascular function in healthy smokers chronically exposed to nicotinized electronic cigarette aerosol versus conventional cigarettes.

Primary Outcome

Post-vaping inflammation monitored by changes in an integrated cluster of blood-based biomarkers from serum/plasma of non-smoking healthy participants quantified at 0 and 120 min post-inhalation. The cluster consisted of: CRP, sICAM-1 in serum and HMGB1, ASC in plasma assayed using ELISA and quantified using absorbance-concentration curves generated by the manufacturers' standards; nitric oxide metabolites (nitrate + nitrite, NOx) in serum assayed with a nitrate/nitrite kit using a colorimetric
