The Food and Drug Administration just issued a special announcement about a new health risk that they worry may be linked to e-cigarettes: seizures.
美国食品药品监管局刚刚发布一则特殊声明:他们担心电子烟或导致新的健康风险--癫痫。
Since June 2018, the agency received what it called "a recent uptick" in reports where users describe having seizures that may be connected with their e-cigarette use. The FDA collects information about vape safety risks through their Safety Reporting Portal, where people who use e-cigarettes can share their experiences. Between reports via that portal and from poison control centers, the FDA counted 35 reports of seizures between 2010 and early 2019 that may be related to vaping. Most of those, it said, involved "youth or young adult users."
自2018年6月以来,该机构收到了其所谓的"近期上升"报告。报告指出,电子烟用户称他们癫痫发作或与抽电子烟相关。美国食品药品监管局通过其安全报告通道收集了关于电子烟安全风险的信息,电子烟用户会通过安全报告通道分享个人经历。透过来自安全报告通道的报告及中毒控制中心的报告,美国食品药品监管局发现,自2010年至2019年初,共计35份癫痫报告与电子烟相关。其中,大多数报告表示,涉及了"青少年或年轻成人用户。"
We know that nicotine poisoning can cause seizures, like when people swallow vape juice. But the FDA doesn't know yet what the relationship between seizures and vaping is here, says FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb in a statement today. Some of these seizures might be unconnected, or some might be caused by inhaling massive amounts nicotine. That seems less plausible, says Peter Chai, a medical toxicologist at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston. "I think exposure (skin contact or oral) in children, or vaping exposure in younger individuals (adolescents through which we've seen a large increase in e-cig use), might be accounting or the increase in these seizures," he says in an email to The Verge.
