The association between e-cigarette use and sleep health: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Review in Tobacco induced diseases, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionE-cigarette use has raised concerns about health impacts beyond nicotine dependence, yet evidence on the relationship between vaping and sleep disturbance remains limited. This systematic review and meta-analysis examined the association between exclusive e-cigarette use and sleep health.
methodsMEDLINE, Embase and PsycINFO were searched up to July 2025 for English-language, peer reviewed human studies. Eligible studies were peer-reviewed observational studies of people who used nicotine e-cigarettes without combustible cigarette use, compared with non-users, that reported sleep health outcomes such as sleep duration and quality. Two independent reviewers screened all records, extracted data using the STROBE checklist, and assessed quality with the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal tool. Effect sizes were pooled using random-effects models, and odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) are reported.
resultsSixteen cross-sectional studies met inclusion criteria, of which twelve were included in the meta-analysis, most of moderate quality. Past 30-day exclusive e-cigarette users had a 38% greater likelihood of poor sleep health than never users (OR=1.38; 95% CI: 1.24-1.55), with similar associations in adolescents (OR=1.32; 95% CI: 1.06-1.66) and adults (OR=1.36; 95% CI: 1.15-1.61).
conclusionsE-cigarette use was associated with poorer sleep health, with similar associations in adolescents and adults. Given rising youth vaping, longitudinal studies with objective measures are needed to inform public health strategies.
