“…Conversely, in a randomized double-blind crossover design study, Meier and colleagues (Meier et al, 2017) found no differences in terms of withdrawal, satisfaction, intention to quit or confidence to quit using cigarettes, or carbon monoxide or urinary cotinine between users of nicotine-containing versus nicotine-free ENDS. Also, Leventhal and colleagues (Leventhal et al, 2020) found that acute use of nicotine-containing e-liquids in a laboratory-based paradigm actually decreased appeal of ENDS among people who are dual users of both ENDS and cigarettes. These mixed findings potentially suggest that factors in addition to nicotine content alone (e.g., sensory components of vaping, interactive effects between flavor and nicotine content; Krishnan-Sarin et al, 2017; Rosbrook & Green, 2016) are responsible for the appeal of nicotine-containing ENDS products.…”
