“…Additionally, we found that e-cigarette users engage in the same frequency of strength training and general exercise as other groups but may walk for exercise less often than marijuana users and non-users. These findings exhibit the net result (no association) of those of prior studies in adolescents and young adults, which reveal significant positive ( Jacobs et al, 2021 , Milicic et al, 2017 ) or negative ( Miller et al, 2019 , Pokhrel et al, 2020 ) associations between e-cigarette use and exercise.…”

“…Yet, some research suggested that athletes are less likely to use marijuana than non-athletes ( Peretti-Watel and Lorente, 2004 , Terry-McElrath et al, 2011 ). Similarly, researchers found both positive ( Jacobs et al, 2021 , Milicic et al, 2017 ) and negative ( Miller et al, 2019 , Pokhrel et al, 2020 ) relationships between e-cigarette use and exercise. However, these studies were either limited to adolescents and young adults or focused only on whether participation in a sport influenced an athlete’s substance use.…”

“…Some studies in young people found that e-cigarette use was inversely associated with moderate to vigorous exercise ( Pokhrel et al, 2019 ) and that e-cigarette users were less likely to engage in moderate-vigorous physical activity than never users ( Miller et al, 2019 ). However, others concluded that youth e-cigarette users were more likely to play sports ( Milicic et al, 2019 ) and meet the physical activity recommendation ( Jacobs et al, 2021 ) than non-users.…”

“…Additionally, we contrasted exercise behavior among dual users of marijuana and e-cigarettes against non-users. While there is evidence that dual use of marijuana and e-cigarettes is associated with lower physical activity compared to single- or non-using adolescents ( Jacobs et al, 2021 ), it is unknown whether this finding holds up among adults.…”

“…Each record in the database was applied a weighting factor with adjustment for nonresponse and oversampling of Black and Hispanic/Latino students. More details about the YRBSs can be found on the following website: https://www.cdc.gov/healthyyouth/data/yrbs/data.htm (accessed on 1 October 2021), as well as in previous published studies about the YRBSs [29,30]. In consideration of data integrity (the data on breakfast consumption began from 2011), this study included the data of recent five surveys performed in the years of 2011, 2013, 2015, 2017, and 2019.…”

The Serial Mediation of the Association between Breakfast Skipping and Suicidality by Weight Status and Depressive Symptoms: Findings from the National Youth Risk Behavior Surveys of the United States

2022

Background: The evidence is limited for the dose–response association between breakfast skipping and suicidality. The underlying pathway from breakfast skipping to suicidality has also rarely been explored in previous studies. Methods: The data of Youth Risk Behavior Surveys (YRBSs) of the United States from 2011 to 2019 were used with a sample size of 74,074. The male: female ratio was nearly 1:1. Binary logistic regression models with complex sampling design were adopted to show the effect of breakfast skipping on weight status, depressive symptoms, and suicidality. Serial mediation was used to explore the association between breakfast skipping and suicidality by overweight/obesity and depressive symptoms. Findings: The weighted prevalence rates (95% confidence interval) of suicidal ideation, suicide plan, suicide attempt, and medically serious suicide attempt for skipping breakfast totally (0 times/week) were 25.6% (24.4–26.8%), 21.7% (20.5–22.9%), 14.2% (13.0–15.3%), and 5.3% (4.6–5.9%). Breakfast skipping was significantly associated with increased risk of suicidal ideation, suicide plan, suicide attempt, and medically serious suicide attempt. There was statistical significance for the linear dose–response association between breakfast skipping and overweight/obesity, depressive symptoms, and suicidality regardless of sex and age. A serial mediation with effect sizes between 39.68% and 51.30% for the association between breakfast skipping and suicidality by overweight/obesity and depressive symptoms was found in this study. Conclusions: This study emphasizes the hazards of breakfast skipping, which could increase the risk of suicidality among adolescents. Overweight/obesity and depressive symptoms as the mediating factors for the association between breakfast skipping and suicidality should also be with more attention.

Our objective was to overview recent data on metabolic/endocrine disorders with respect to e-cigarette (e-cig) use. This is a narrative review; we researched English, full-length, original articles on PubMed (between January 2020 and August 2023) by using different keywords in the area of metabolic/endocrine issues. We only included original clinical studies (n = 22) and excluded case reports and experimental studies. 3 studies (N1 = 22,385; N2 = 600,046; N3 = 5101) addressed prediabetes risk; N1 showed a 1.57-fold increased risk of dual vs. never smokers, a higher risk that was not confirmed in N2 (based on self-reported assessments). Current non-smokers (N1) who were dual smokers still have an increased odd of prediabetes (a 1.27-fold risk increase). N3 and another 2 studies addressed type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM): a lower prevalence of DM among dual users (3.3%) vs. cigarette smoking (5.9%) was identified. 6 studies investigated obesity profile (4 of them found positive correlations with e-cig use). One study (N4 = 373,781) showed that e-cig use was associated with obesity in the general population (OR = 1.6, 95%CI: 1.3–2.1, p < 0.05); another (N5 = 7505, 0.82% were e-cig-only) showed that obesity had a higher prevalence in dual smokers (51%) vs. cig-only (41.2%, p < 0.05), while another (N6 = 3055) found that female (not male) e-cig smokers had higher body mass index vs. non-smokers. Data on metabolic syndrome (MS) are provided for dual smokers (n = 2): one case–control study found that female dual smokers had higher odds of MS than non-smokers. The need for awareness with respect to potential e-cig-–associated medical issues should be part of modern medicine, including daily anamnesis. Whether the metabolic/endocrine frame is part of the general picture is yet to be determined. Surveillance protocols should help clinicians to easily access the medical background of one subject, including this specific matter of e-cig with/without conventional cigarettes smoking and other habits/lifestyle elements, especially when taking into consideration metabolism anomalies.
