“…Grogan et al 28 carried out a qualitative study with women smokers who participated in an age-progression intervention (APRIL Age Progression Software, V.2.5, Aprilage Inc., Ontario, Toronto, Canada). Strengths of the study included the in-depth information gained from the interviews and focus group research.…”

Questions still remain as to whether physical appearance interventions have an impact on smoking attitudes, intentions or behaviours, particularly in British samples. To inform practice, additional, well-designed, studies are needed. They should include control groups, use robust randomised allocation to conditions, measures with established reliability and validity and take measures pre and post intervention.

“…Research indicates that fear appeals using graphic images can be effective in improving attitudes and changing health behaviors 60,61 . For instance, interventions that show images of smoking's impact on premature facial wrinkles can instill motives for smoking cessation [62][63] . Research suggests that knowledge of e-cigarette explosions may deter young people from using e-cigarettes 67,68 .…”

INTRODUCTION E-cigarettes have the potential to cause burns from batteries that explode. Although e-cigarette explosion burns have been reported by the media (e.g. local online news, blogs), there is a need for a comprehensive review of published medical case reports regarding these injuries. METHODS CINAHL and PubMed were systematically searched using common terms regarding e-cigarettes (electronic cigarette, e-cigarette, vape, vaping, electronic nicotine delivery systems) in every combination with the term 'explosion'. Peerreviewed articles were included if they: were written in English, described case reports of burn injuries caused by e-cigarette explosions, and were published in any year. Cases were categorized by demographics, location of the e-cigarette explosion, burned body areas, types of burns, total body surface area of burns, the need for skin grafting, and the length of hospital stay. RESULTS Thirty-one articles were included in the review and described 164 cases. Most patients (90%) were male and between 20 to 29 years old. In the majority of cases (65%), e-cigarettes exploded in pockets, compared to exploding in the face or hand. Common burned areas included the thigh, hand, genitals, and face. Burn severity was typically second-degree burns (35%) or a combination of seconddegree and third-degree burns (20%). In all, 48 patients required skin grafting, with 19 reporting a median hospital stay of 5 days. CONCLUSIONS This review has several implications, including the need for regulation of batteries, education regarding battery safety, and leveraging images of the severity of e-cigarette explosion burns to discourage the use of e-cigarettes.

“…To date, a few message framing studies emphasising physical appearance attributes have been conducted in the context of other health behaviours, with some success. For example, information on physical appearance has been manipulated to promote sun protection (Hevey et al, 2010;Thomas et al, 2011;Williams, Grogan, Clark-Carter, & Buckley, 2012), weight management (Frederick, Saguy, Sandhu, & Mann, 2015;Gallagher & Updegraff, 2011), and smoking cessation (Flett, Clark-Carter, Grogan, & Davey, 2013;Flett, Grogan, Clark-Carter, Gough, & Conner, 2015;Grogan et al, 2010).…”

Objectives: To compare the impact of appearance versus healthframed messages on engagement in a brief web-based risk screening and alcohol reduction intervention. Design: Randomised trial delivered via Drinkaware's website. Visitors were exposed to appearance (n ¼ 51,588) or health-framed messages (n ¼ 52,639) directing them towards an AUDIT-C risk screening questionnaire. Users completing this questionnaire were given feedback on their risk level and extended frame-congruent information. Outcomes: The primary outcome is completion of the AUDIT-C questionnaire. The secondary outcome is whether the participant accessed any of four further resources. Results: The appearance-framed message led to a small but significant increase in the number of users completing the AUDIT-C compared to the health-framed message (n ¼ 3,537, 6.86% versus n ¼ 3,355, 6.37%, p < 0.01). Conversely, following subsequent risk feedback, users exposed to extended health-framed information were more likely to access further resources (n ¼ 1,146, 2.17% versus n ¼ 942, 1.83%, p < 0.01). Conclusions: Physical appearance-framed messages increased the likelihood of engagement with an online alcohol screening and brief intervention tool, whereas health-framed messages increased the likelihood of accessing further resources. This highlights the potential for the use of multi-level approaches in alcohol reduction interventions.
