目的：在这项研究中，我们提出了更新的估计使用流行率，香料的使用，和口味作为美国雪茄和电子尼古丁输送系统（ENDS）用户使用的原因。研究方法：数据来自烟草与健康人口评估（PATH）研究的第4波，收集于2016年12月至2018年1月初。列出了青年（12-17岁）、青年（18-24岁）和成人（25岁以上）的结果。结果如下：大约一半（50.7%）的年轻人报告曾经使用过ENDS产品，其中83.7%的人报告他们的第一个ENDS产品是调味的。在当前（过去30天）ENDS使用者中，香料使用率特别高，青年为97.0%，年轻人为96.8%，成年人为81.2%。至于雪茄，雪茄是年轻人和年轻人最常用的类型。在目前的小雪茄和过滤雪茄使用者中，香料使用量最高，近一半的目前使用者报告了不同年龄组的香料使用情况。结论：在ENDS和雪茄使用者中，使用Flavorimide产品很常见。
Objectives: In this study, we present updated estimates of use prevalence, flavor use, and flavors as a reason for use among US cigar and electronic nicotine delivery system (ENDS) users. Methods: Data come from Wave 4 of the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study and were collected between December 2016 and early January 2018. Results are presented for youth (12-17 years), young adults (18-24 years), and adults (25+ years). Results: Approximately half (50.7%) of young adults reported having ever used an ENDS product with 83.7% reporting that their first ENDS product was flavored. Flavor use was particularly high among current (past 30-day) ENDS users at 97.0% among youth, 96.8% among young adults, and 81.2% among adults. For cigars, cigarillos were the most commonly used type among youth and young adults. Flavor use was highest among current cigarillo and filtered cigar users, with close to half of current users reporting flavor use across age groups. Conclusions: Flavored product use is common among ENDS and cigar users.
