Is Hookah Safer than Cigarette Smoking-PHLRamandeep Kaur
This document analyzes whether hookah smoking is safer than cigarette smoking by comparing their chemical yields, risks of secondhand smoke, correlation to diseases, and societal perceptions. It finds that one hookah smoking session yields significantly more nicotine, carbon monoxide, and smoke volume than smoking multiple cigarettes. Secondhand hookah smoke exposes others to smoke and harmful heating byproducts. Areas where hookah is popular, like Kashmir, show high lung cancer rates among hookah smokers comparable to cigarette smokers. However, society generally perceives hookah as less harmful despite the evidence that it can be as or more dangerous than cigarette smoking.

This study assessed exposure to secondhand smoke among bar and nightclub employees in 24 cities globally. Air nicotine levels were measured in 238 venues for a week, and hair samples were collected from 936 employees to measure nicotine levels. Median air nicotine was 3.5 μg/m3 in smoking venues and 0.2 μg/m3 in smoke-free venues. Median hair nicotine was 6.0 ng/mg in smoking employees and 1.7 ng/mg in non-smoking employees. Higher workplace air nicotine levels were associated with higher hair nicotine levels in both non-smoking and smoking employees, indicating secondhand smoke exposure results in nicotine absorption among employees.

Bareham et al E-Cigarettes Controversies within the controversyDavid Bareham
E-cigarettes have been controversial since being introduced over 10 years ago. There are ongoing debates around their potential health risks, effectiveness for smoking cessation, appropriate regulation, and the involvement of tobacco companies. Studies have shown mixed results on whether e-cigarettes help smoking cessation and their long-term health effects are still unclear due to lack of research and conflicting reports. Various organizations and experts disagree on the appropriate regulatory approach and how the risks of e-cigarettes compare to conventional cigarettes. The controversies surrounding e-cigarettes are complex with arguments on both sides and no consensus on important issues related to public health.
This study examined biomarkers of exposure to carcinogens in smokers who switched between regular and light cigarettes for short periods. Sixteen smokers smoked their regular cigarettes for one week, then a light cigarette with half the machine-measured nicotine for one week, then back to their regular. Biomarkers were measured weekly and showed high levels of compensation - smokers adjusted their smoking behavior to take in similar levels of carcinogens despite the cigarette change. Compensation occurred through both smoking more cigarettes per day and smoking more intensely. Exposure levels to various carcinogens remained similar, suggesting short-term switching to light cigarettes is unlikely to reduce health risks from smoking.

Liu rl et al second hand smoke in restaurants and barsAlexander Li
This study measured levels of particulate matter (PM2.5) in 404 restaurants and bars across 5 cities in China to assess exposure to second-hand smoke (SHS). They found that venues where smoking was observed had significantly higher indoor PM2.5 levels (geometric mean of 208 μg/m3) than venues without smoking (99 μg/m3). Indoor PM2.5 levels were positively correlated with both outdoor PM2.5 levels and the density of active smokers. The results document high levels of SHS in hospitality venues in China and highlight the need for comprehensive smoke-free laws to protect the public, as called for in the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control.

This document provides an overview of electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) and discusses associated health risks and environmental impacts. It summarizes that while e-cigarettes were introduced as a safer alternative to regular cigarettes, research shows they may pose similar or additional health hazards. Exposure to e-cigarette vapor can damage lung tissue and impair the immune system. The liquid and vapor contain toxic chemicals like nicotine, formaldehyde, and heavy metals. Regulations are needed to restrict e-cigarette advertising and sales to youth and prevent disposal hazards from batteries and liquid waste. More research is still required to understand long-term health effects.
E-cigarettes provide an alternative to nicotine delivery through vapor rather than smoke. While they may be less harmful than conventional cigarettes, there are still health risks and unknown long-term effects. The document discusses both sides of the debate around e-cigarettes. Some view them as a harm reduction tool that can help smokers quit, while others are concerned they could renormalize smoking behaviors and expose users to carcinogens. Long-term studies are still needed to fully understand the safety profile of e-cigarettes and their impacts on public health.
Steam instead of smoke - that sounds good at first. But researchers from the \UK warn of the long-term effects of e-cigarettes. Yet they have yet to be explored. We know that so far.

EFFECTS OF LEGALIZATION OF MARIJUANA
Introduction
The recent legalization of bhang cannabis in the country has been received with different views from various stakeholders who are involved in running the country as well as the citizens. Being the second nation in the world to legalize the use of cannabis, the product is expected to bring different effects and the excitement of the use more impacting than the legislators have thought it. University students, for example, are among the lot that will be profoundly affected by the move because of the criticality of their age and choices in life. At this age, the majority of the students are not sure what they want in life and, hence, are easily swayed by common trends and influenced easily by their peers. Cannabis is known to have a variety of uses, which ranges from medicinal purposes, life, and religion to entertainment by people over a long period and the preference of use of the substance varies among different groups such as parents (Pearson et al. 83-89). The legalization of cannabis brings both benefits and effects which will be experienced due to the use by different groups. This discussion will explore how the legalization of marijuana will affect the lives of university students in Canada.Comment by Miranda: Lot of what?Comment by Miranda: What move?Comment by Miranda: Word choice
Benefits
Over a long period, Cannabis has been abused by college and university students while in hideouts and other unsafe places. Also, the methods of acquiring the drug for abuse were questionable and often resulted in the purchase of impure “weed” which is harmful and risky to their lives. The legalization of the drug will enhance the use of safe products because vendors will be licensed and expected to produce secure products, which are not a health hazard to the youth who use it. Due to the legalizing of the sale of the product, producers will have to ensure the quality of the marijuana product, which will consequently improve the quality and safety of the products (Moreno et al. 9-18). Most students feel that legal marijuana is safer and reduces the hustle of obtaining it which assures their health and lesser effects associated with the user as compared to the previous illegally acquired product. We all know the importance of good health as witnessed in our daily lives. Deaths, which were associated with the abuse of the substance and other shady deals to acquire and distribute the substance, are likely to reduce and, hence, provide a better environment for the students actually to learn. Safe and ample learning circles are now enhanced because drug-related insecurities are likely to drop significantly.Comment by Miranda: Cannabis shouldn’t be capitalisedComment by Miranda: What is the importance of this sentence?
Secondly, in the past , marijuana has been in the past used for medicinal purposes around the world. Cannabis has been tested.
This document provides 10 facts about vapor products that aim to dispel common misconceptions. It states that vapor products are not tobacco products, do not combust like cigarettes, and do not pose the same public health risks as smoking. The document also notes that flavors appeal more to adult smokers and vapers than youth, most vapers are former smokers, and vapor products are not a gateway to youth smoking.
Islam prohibits smoking cigarettes due to the serious health risks. Cigarettes contain over 4,000 chemicals, including at least 50 that cause cancer. When burned, cigarettes release toxic chemicals like formaldehyde, ammonia, arsenic, and hydrogen cyanide. While electronic cigarettes may contain fewer harmful chemicals, their long term effects are still unknown and they remain unregulated. Islam teaches preserving one's health and avoiding intoxicants, so Muslims should refrain from both traditional and electronic cigarettes.
E-ciggarettes & work productivity- research.pptxMarina Ibrahim
E-cigarette use in the workplace can negatively impact productivity and employee health. A survey found that the majority of employees see colleagues vaping at work, and most feel bothered by it. While vaping may be used to quit smoking, exposure to secondhand vaping in the workplace encourages tobacco use and relapse. Regulations are needed to restrict vaping in offices to protect employees and support quitting efforts. Employers should implement tobacco-free policies and provide resources to address this workplace issue.
E-cigarettes may help some smokers quit or reduce smoking, according to some studies. Research shows e-cigarettes can reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms compared to regular cigarettes. However, other studies found e-cigarettes can still expose users to toxic chemicals and negatively impact lung function. Further research is still needed to understand the overall health impacts of e-cigarettes. The FDA is concerned about a lack of regulation and marketing that could increase youth addiction to nicotine.
Cannabis Its Effects On Children And Young Peoplegaz12000
Cannabis is the most widely used illegal drug in Britain. While its toxicity is low, both short- and long-term use can have implications for physical and mental health. Early cannabis use may be linked to poorer educational outcomes and an increased risk of using other illicit drugs. However, the relationship between cannabis and other drug use is complex, and cannabis likely does not have a direct causal role in leading to harder drug use. The precise effects of cannabis on mental health conditions like psychosis also remain unclear.
This study compared the effects of cigarette smoke, e-cigarette vapor, and pure nicotine on cell viability using HeLa cells. Various concentrations of smoke and vapor condensates collected from a mechanical smoking system were applied to cells for 24 hours. An MTT assay then measured cell viability. Cigarette smoke exposure resulted in lower viability than e-cigarette vapor, but higher than pure nicotine. The results provide insight into the acute toxicity of these substances and whether e-cigarettes may be less harmful than cigarettes.

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.
OJP data from firms like Vicinity Jobs have emerged as a complement to traditional sources of labour demand data, such as the Job Vacancy and Wages Survey (JVWS). Ibrahim Abuallail, PhD Candidate, University of Ottawa, presented research relating to bias in OJPs and a proposed approach to effectively adjust OJP data to complement existing official data (such as from the JVWS) and improve the measurement of labour demand.
Vicinity Jobs’ data includes more than three million 2023 OJPs and thousands of skills. Most skills appear in less than 0.02% of job postings, so most postings rely on a small subset of commonly used terms, like teamwork.
Laura Adkins-Hackett, Economist, LMIC, and Sukriti Trehan, Data Scientist, LMIC, presented their research exploring trends in the skills listed in OJPs to develop a deeper understanding of in-demand skills. This research project uses pointwise mutual information and other methods to extract more information about common skills from the relationships between skills, occupations and regions.

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.

SECOND-HAND BONG SMOKE
Why is Second-Hand Bong Smoke More
Toxic Than Tobacco Smoke Now?
Bong smoke could be more poisonous than smoking a cigarette?
Posted by:
Karhlyle, today at 12:00am
All forms of tobacco smoke, firsthand and secondhand, are extremely toxic to the human system
(https://cannabis.net/blog/opinion/secondhand-marijuana-harm-just-a-cannabis-karen-whining-or-a-real-threat). People
often assume that secondhand smoke is less harmful than thirdhand smoke, but scientists have established that

exhaled smoke contains hundreds of toxic and carcinogenic chemicals.
The American Lung Association revealed that at least 41,000 annual deaths could be traced to secondhand tobacco
smoke (https://www.lung.org/quit-smoking/smoking-facts/health-effects/secondhand-smoke). This is the primary
reason why smokers are always advised not to smoke in public spaces or indoors when other household members are
present. Thousands of non-smokers have developed life-threatening health conditions due to this. Some of the severe
illnesses that develop in smokers and non-smokers due to tobacco smoke include lung diseases, heart diseases,
bronchitis, and stroke.
Different statistics corroborate the scientists' claim that secondhand smoke is harmful. For example, the Center for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported that up to 8,000 fatal stroke cases could be linked to secondhand
smoke. Annually, over 7,000 lung cancer mortalities and about 33,000 untimely deaths due to cardiac diseases are
contributed by non-smokers.
Secondhand Bong Smoke
Latest reports state that exhaled particles from cannabis smoke (https://cannabis.net/blog/smoke/the-effect-of-
secondhand-marijuana-smoke), either from vapes, bongs, or rolls, contain toxic chemicals. Last year, researchers in
Berkeley disclosed that secondhand bong smoke could have as many damning effects as tobacco smoke, depending on
how much particulate matter is released into the environment.

The heavy restrictions on cannabis research due to federal prohibitions have limited the amount and quality of research
done on cannabis plants. To fully comprehend how harmful bong smoke is, a whole lot of experiments need to be done.
When combusted, tobacco products such as cigars, cigarettes, and pipes give off particles that settle in dust and
sometimes indoor surfaces. These particles remain there long after the smoke has evaporated or the effects of the hit
have worn off. Research shows that these particles end up being ingested indirectly or inhaled from these resting spots.
The Berkeley study pointed out that non-smokers are overly exposed to air pollutants. It is worrying that the
concentrations of air pollutants in the environment today are at least twice the standard quality limits. The more air
pollutants in an area, the more exposed smokers and nonsmokers are.

Researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, published this study in JAMA Network Open.
(https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2790510) They positioned an aerosol monitor in the
living room of a bong smoker to measure the quality of air a visitor might be exposed to. The monitor measured the
delicate particulate matter (PM2.5) in the living room while the room's occupant and his friends smoked bongs for about
120 minutes. After eight sessions, the instrument noted the precise PM2.5 levels before, during, and after each session.
The results suggested that cannabis bong smoking increased the PM2.5 background levels by over 100 folds. Less than
15 minutes after the young adults started their session, the PM2.5 rose to extremely high levels, more than the
accepted air quality levels. The Environmental Protection Agency says particulate matter can travel into the respiratory
tract and induce adverse impacts on regular lung functions. Hence, it is essential that air quality levels are maintained at
all times.
It's always advisable to smoke outdoors.
One of the researchers is Patton Nguyen, a UC Berkeley graduate and fellow. The team is headed by School of Public
Health Professor Katherine Hammond. The main conclusion of the research noted that the harm that arises from
smoking indoors is not worth the temporary high. Nguyen said that smoking indoors affects non-smokers the same way
it affects smokers.
Smoking bongs or tobacco indoors in apartments shared with non-smokers is growing to be a public health concern.
Nguyen emphasized that cannabis bong smoke could even be more harmful than tobacco smoke. The report noted that
the aerosol measured the PM2.5 concentration of cannabis smoke to be at least four times the amount of particulate
matter in secondhand tobacco smoke.
Professor of epidemiology Dr. Silvia Martins commented on the limited research in this area. Silvia, who also serves as
the Director of the Substance Use Epidemiology Unit at the Mailman School of Public Health, Columbia University, said
that the Berkeley study is the first of many in a controlled area.
Weed Clinical Trials

The future of weed clinical trials rests solely with the federal government.
The chairman of Rutgers Medical School's department of anesthesiology, Dr. Alex Bekker, said that observational
studies like the Berkeley study are not scientific enough to make precise claims about a drug and its impacts. He noted
that the Berkeley study merely measured hazardous particles in the air without giving much attention to the effects of
these particles on smokers' and nonsmokers' health. According to Bekker, the Berkeley research is not sufficient
enough to link cannabis smoke with potential diseases. That's why clinical trials are needed.
The current federal laws are dragging back the evolution of cannabis clinical trials. Any institute that plans to carry out
phase 2 and phase 3 clinical trials on cannabis must go through several hurdles to get their permits approved. The
difficulty obtaining these permits has made several laboratories and universities lose interest in studying the plant.
Considering the fact that cannabis is now legal for medical consumption in about 33 states and can be freely consumed
for recreational purposes in 16 states, it is infuriating that the regulatory paperwork to study the plant and its effect on
human health is still so time-consuming and expensive.
Last Note
Neurology Professor Margaret Haney of Columbia University Medical Center added that it took her more than nine
months to obtain a research license for cannabis (https://nyspi.org/node/16220). Her case is even more difficult because
she is a federally funded scientist. There are close limits on how she can study or handle the plant. Federal laws must be
changed soon to allow researchers full access to cannabis research.
Nguyen and Hammond said they would be conducting and releasing more comprehensive studies to raise awareness of
the adverse impacts of secondhand bong smoke. Hopefully, the MORE ACT will get passed soon enough to make
cannabis more accessible for clinical investigations and studies.
