"We have no good ways to really identify which articles are now trustworthy...I think we should not really base any recommendations for studies in patients on the evidence that we have found here," Wever told @thetransmitter.bsky.social www.thetransmitter.org/publishing/i...

“E-cigarette juice can have a nicotine concentration as high as 150 millimolar ... And we saw that (lung) toxicity occurs at micromolar levels (1000 times less). It’s just off the scale.” —Jay L. Zweier of the Ohio State University www.asbmb.org/asbmb-.... #ASBMBJournals #asbmbJBC
