IntroductionTraditional cigarette use adversely impacts disease outcomes in Crohn’s disease (CD). There has been a worldwide increase in the use of e-cigarettes over the past decade. The impact of use of nicotine containing e-cigarettes on disease outcomes in CD or ulcerative colitis (UC) has not been well defined.MethodsThis was a retrospective case-control study of patients with CD or UC who were current users of nicotine containing e-cigarettes (cases). Each case was matched to two non-vaping controls. Our primary study outcome was a composite of new biologic initiation, switch of existing biologic therapy, or IBD-related hospitalization or surgery over 2 years. Multivariable models adjusting for relevant covariates were construction.ResultsThe study consisted of 127 patients with IBD who were current e-cigarette users compared to 251 controls. Current e-cigarette users were younger than non-users and were more likely to have had an IBD-related surgery previously. On multivariable analysis among those with CD, current e-cigarette use was not associated with higher risk of study outcome (OR 0.82, 95% CI 0.36–1.87). No difference was observed separately among those who were current or former smokers. Similarly, in those with UC, current e-cigarette use was not associated with the primary outcome (OR 1.05, 95% CI 0.33–3.39).ConclusionCurrent e-cigarette use was not associated with worse outcomes among patients with IBD. However, larger studies particularly of patients de novo initiating vaping are needed to draw robust conclusions. Patients should be discouraged from initiating vaping recognizing overall adverse health effects.
