ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
This is authors' reply to the Commentary on our publication entitled "Adult smokers' Complete Switching Away from Cigarettes at 6, 9, and 12 Months after Initially Purchasing a JUUL e-Cigarette." METHODS ANDRESULTS:
Analyses addressed questions about follow-up rates and missed responses in the Adult JUUL Switching and Smoking Trajectories (ADJUSST) Study. Results demonstrate limited potential for selection bias, as participants who missed surveys were similar to those with complete data, and re-contact of participants who missed a follow-up indicated almost half were not smoking. Imputing smoking behavior for missing data would likely introduce bias and is not appropriate. The study demonstrated that JUUL products can facilitate high rates of complete switching away from cigarettes as suggested in previous experimental and observational studies. The ADJUSST cohort, including baseline nonsmokers, demonstrates a net reduction in smoking prevalence. Moreover, population modeling considering both benefits and harms demonstrated a net population benefit.CONCLUSION:
While the ADJUSST Study is not without limitations, the findings are consistent with multiple streams of real-world evidence that indicate that ENDS can facilitate switching among adults who smoke, and provide population benefits.Palavras-chave
