Do alternative tobacco products induce less adverse respiratory risk than cigarettes?
Due to the relatively short existence of alternative tobacco products, gaps exist in our current understanding of their long-term respiratory health effects. We therefore undertook the first-ever side-by-side ... (Source: Respiratory Research)
