NCT04135404 | Completed

• 1 other identifier: IRB 300003376
• Study Type: observational
• Target: 400,000
• Locations: 0 countries
• Sites: N/A

Brief Summary

Secondary data analysis will be performed as our approach to complete the study. A nationally representative dataset (BRFSS, 2017) will be used to answer the above hypotheses.

Conditions

Electronic Cigarette Use; Pulmonary Disease

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

• Poor mental health mediate the relationship between pulmonary status (pulmonary vs. non-pulmonary) and e-cigarette use.

  This question assesses mental health, including stress, depression, and emotional problems, by asking participants the number of days out of the last 30 days that their mental health was not good (continuous variables).

  1 year

• Smoking mediate the relationship between pulmonary status (pulmonary vs. non-pulmonary) and e-cigarette use.

  Smoking: This scale assesses the frequency of smoking cigarettes: 1 = every day, 2 = some days, 3 = not at all.

  1 year

• E-cigarette use (Dependent Variable)

  This survey item asks participants if they ever used an e-cigarette or other electronic "vaping" product, even just one time, in their entire life (Yes/No).

  1 year

• Alcohol use moderate the relationship between pulmonary status (pulmonary vs. healthy) and e-cigarette use

  This question assesses the number of days in the last 30 days that participants have drunk alcohol (continuous variables).

  1 year

• (healthy days (health-related quality of life) mediate the relationship between pulmonary status (pulmonary vs. non-pulmonary) and e-cigarette use.

  In reference to healthy days, these questions assess health-related quality of life, which is going to be assessed by asking questions concerning the number of days out of the last 30 days that the participants were physically or mentally ill (continuous variables).

  1 year

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• Marijuana use moderate the relationship between pulmonary status (pulmonary vs. healthy) and e-cigarette use.

  1 year

• Severity of COPD symptoms (COPD group) moderate the relationship between pulmonary status (COPD, asthma) and e-cigarette use

  1 year

• asthma symptoms (asthmatic group) moderate the relationship between pulmonary status (COPD, asthma) and e-cigarette use.

  1 year

Study Arms (2)

Pulmonary Group

This project will be achieved by using a publicly available data set (Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, 2017). The subjects from the data set will be selected on their pulmonary status; pulmonary group are those who have reported any pulmonary diseases and they will be included in this study as pulmonary group.

Other: health-related telephone surveys

Control Group

This project will be achieved by using a publicly available data set (Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, 2017). The subjects from the data set will be selected on their pulmonary status; The control group are subjects without pulmonary diseases and they will be included as (control group).

Other: health-related telephone surveys

Interventions

health-related telephone surveys OTHER

The Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) is a health-related telephone surveys that collect state data about United States residents regarding their health-related risk behaviors, chronic health conditions, and use of preventive services (Secondary-data analysis).

Control Group; Pulmonary Group

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 18 Years+
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: No
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
• Sampling Method: Probability Sample

Study Population

* This study will use a quantitative, cross-sectional research design. The project has two phases for completion. * This project will be achieved by using a publicly available dataset (Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, 2017). The subjects from the dataset will be selected on their pulmonary status; subjects without pulmonary diseases and those who have reported any pulmonary diseases will be included in this study

You may not qualify if:

• Group 1: Pulmonary
• Are 18 years of age or older.
• Reported any of the pulmonary disease (Asthma, COPD). Group 2: Control Group
• Are 18 years of age or older.
• Free from any pulmonary disease (asthma, COPD).
• Are younger than 18 years of age.
• Did not report any of the pulmonary disease (Asthma, COPD). Group 2: Control Group
• Are younger than 18 years of age.
• Reported any pulmonary disease (asthma, COPD
• The Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) is health-related telephone surveys that collect state data about United States residents regarding their health-related risk behaviors, chronic health conditions, and use of preventive services. This database contains data to help determine e-cigarette use in individuals with pulmonary disease in the US which little is known.
• Note: The Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) is a public dataset, and the data is publicly available online at (https://www.cdc.gov/brfss/annual\_data/annual\_2017.html)
