Abstract
The current study analyzed how addiction to vaping impacts individuals' health by measuring various blood gases and physiological variables. Data from 80 electronic cigarette users were collected and analyzed, with participants categorized based on nicotine percentage and years of vaping. Comparisons were made with 30 samples from healthy individuals and non-smokers acting as the control group.
The results of the study revealed that the levels of certain variables varied significantly based on the percentage of nicotine and the number of years smoking. For example, the percentage of monocarbon gas in the blood showed a clear increase, reaching 40% in those who smoked for more than 10 years compared to 16% in those who smoked for (1-4) years.
Similarly, oxygen levels decreased, with the highest decline of 73% in those with a 12% nicotine intake. Carboxyhemoglobin levels also varied, with the highest increase of 127% found in those with 12% nicotine intake and over 10 years of smoking. The acid function section saw the highest decrease of 2% in those smoking for more than 10 years compared to 1% in those smoking for (1-4) years.
