Impact of E-Cigarette Liquid Flavoring Agents on Activity of Microsomal Recombinant CYP2A6, the Primary Nicotine-Metabolizing Enzyme.
Article in Chemical research in toxicology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Nicotine is the primary psychoactive chemical in both traditional and electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes). Nicotine levels in both traditional cigarettes and e-cigarettes are an important concern for public health. Nicotine exposure due to e-cigarette use is of importance primarily due to the addictive potential of nicotine, but there is also concern for nicotine poisoning in e-cigarette users. Nicotine concentrations in e-liquids vary widely. Additionally, there is significant genetic variability in the rate of metabolism of nicotine due to polymorphisms of CYP2A6, the enzyme responsible for the metabolism of approximately 80% of nicotine. Recent studies have shown CYP2A6 activity is also reduced by aromatic aldehydes such as those added to e-liquids as flavoring agents, which may increase nicotine serum concentrations. However, the impacts of flavored e-liquids on CYP2A6 activity are unknown. In this study, we investigated the impact of three flavored e-liquids on microsomal recombinant CYP2A6. Microsomal recombinant CYP2A6 was challenged at e-liquid concentrations ranging up to 0.125% (v/v) and monitored for metabolic activity using a probe molecule approach. Two e-liquids exhibited dose-dependent inhibition of CYP2A6 activity. Mass spectrometry was conducted to identify flavoring agents in flavored e-liquids that inhibited CYP2A6. Microsomal recombinant CYP2A6 was subsequently exposed to flavoring agents at concentrations ranging from 0.03 μM to 500 μM. Cinnamaldehyde and benzaldehyde were found to be the most potent inhibitors of microsomal CYP2A6 of the flavoring agents tested, with identified IC
