NCT ID NCT06159608
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how vaping (using e-cigarettes) affects blood vessel health in young adults aged 18-24. Researchers will compare chronic vapers to non-users, measuring blood vessel function through a small skin test and blood samples. The goal is to understand if vaping harms blood vessels differently in men versus women, and whether female hormone levels play a role.
