We used the publicly available and flexible DYNAMO-HIA tool to conduct the present HIA analysis (https://www.dynamo-hia.eu, version 2.0.8), which has been used to model health impacts following changes in various risk factors14,15,17,37,38,39,40,41,42. Our analysis consists of a dynam...
… and we are planning clinical and real-world studies to further define the harm reduction potential of our smoke-free products. These would collect data from adult smokers, people who quit smoking and nicotine products altogether, and users of smoke-free products. The table below provides an ...
The World Health Organization has urged governments to treat e-cigarettes similarly to tobacco, warning of their health impact and potential to drive nicotine addiction among non-smokers, especially children and young people.

risk characterisation would rely on a qualitative approach. This involves a systematic collection and analysis of available information on the environmental and health impacts of MNPs. Key considerations should include those highlighted here, such as their interaction with biological systems, persistence in...
