So I did a little more digging. Although the paper is CC-BY, in the original contribution, it wasn't attributed properly. You won't be able to find the url, or DOI . Therefore to be safe, IMO, it has to be rev-deleted.⸺RandomStaplers 06:47, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

Peer reviews from Group Heat Exhaustion

1. Do the group's edits substantially improve the article as described in the Misplaced Pages peer review "Guiding framework"?
Per the Misplaced Pages peer review guiding framework, the group's edits substantially improve the Misplaced Pages article "Health effects of electronic cigarettes". The following changes have been noted:
- Lead Section:
- The previous lead was brief and lacked detail about the major sections of the article.
- The revised lead has been significantly expanded, providing a more comprehensive overview of the article's contents.
- Content:
- New, relevant, and up-to-date information has been added, addressing recent studies and findings.
- Some specific additions include:
- Expanded section on cardiovascular effects, citing a 2023 study linking e-cigarette use to increased blood pressure and arterial stiffness.
- New subsection on demographic impacts, particularly focusing on youth and pregnant women.
- Expanded section on respiratory health, citing a 2024 study showing a correlation between e-cigarette use and chronic bronchitis symptoms in long-term users.
- These additions ensure the article remains current and addresses Misplaced Pages's equity gaps by highlighting effects on historically underrepresented populations (i.e., women and children)
- Tone and Balance:
- The edits maintain a neutral tone throughout, presenting information with minimal bias.
- Balanced representation of different viewpoints, including perspectives from both proponents and critics of e-cigarettes. For instance, the potential benefits of e-cigarettes as smoking cessation tools are discussed alongside health risks.
- Sources and References:
- New content is backed by reliable, recent secondary sources from peer-reviewed journals.
- Citations accurately reflect the information presented and cover a wide spectrum of available literature.
- Notable new sources include a 2023 article from the Journal of the American Heart Association and a 2024 review in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine.
- Organization:
- The article's structure has been enhanced with clear, concise, and easy-to-read content.
- New content is well-organized into logical sections such as cardiovascular effects, respiratory health, and demographic impacts.
- Minor grammatical errors were corrected and sentence structure improved for clarity.
- Images and Media:
- While no new images were added, existing visuals are well-captioned and adhere to Misplaced Pages's copyright regulations.
- Image captions were updated to be more descriptive, enhancing readers' understanding.
- Overall Impressions:
- The edits have significantly improved the article's comprehensiveness, balance, and readability.
- The content is now more complete, with thorough sourcing and a well-structured layout.
- The strengths of the added content include its relevance, neutrality, and up-to-date research findings.
2. Has the group achieved its overall goals for improvement?
The group has largely achieved its overall goals for improving the Misplaced Pages article "Health effects of electronic cigarettes," with several specific accomplishments aligning with their stated objectives.
- Introduction of Electronic Cigarettes:
- Achieved: The lead now includes a more comprehensive overview of electronic cigarettes, including sections on alternatives to smoking and their effects on increasing nicotine products and smoking cessation. These additions provide a thorough background and context for the rest of the article.
- Add to Other Effects:
- Partially Achieved: The group successfully added content on the impact of e-cigarettes on the gastrointestinal (GI) system, dermatological manifestations, renal, and hepatic effects. These additions enhance the "Other Effects" section by broadening the scope of health impacts covered. However, more detailed information and specific studies could further strengthen these sections.
- Update Repetitive Paragraphs & Out-of-date Research:
- Achieved: The group revised several sections to remove repetitive content and update out-of-date research. The "Adverse Effects" section, including battery-related malfunctions, was updated to reflect more current findings and provide clearer information. These revisions improve the clarity and accuracy of the article.
- Adverse Effects and Related Sections:
- Achieved: The sections on adverse effects, reported deaths, direct exposure, and respiratory effects (EVALI) have been updated. The revisions include recent research and detailed findings on these topics, providing a more comprehensive and up-to-date overview. The gallery section remains unchanged, which might be an area for future improvement.
- Regulation, Toxicology, Public Perceptions:
- Partially Achieved: The "Regulation" section has seen some updates, but it could benefit from more detailed information on specific regulations and their impacts across different regions. The sections on toxicology and public perceptions have been tentatively addressed but could be further expanded with more detailed and current content.
- Current References and Updated Pictures:
- Partially Achieved: The group has added more current references throughout the article, citing recent studies and reliable sources. This enhances the credibility and relevance of the information presented. However, there were no significant updates to pictures, which could be an area for further enhancement.
The group has successfully achieved most of its goals for improving the article. Some areas, such as more detailed regulatory information and expanded sections on toxicology and public perceptions, could be further developed to fully meet all their objectives.
3. Does the article meet Misplaced Pages guidelines?
A. Does the draft submission reflect a neutral point of view?
The draft submission of the Misplaced Pages article "Health effects of electronic cigarettes" largely reflects a neutral point of view, aligning well with Misplaced Pages's standards for neutrality. The revisions include balanced coverage of both the potential benefits and risks associated with e-cigarettes. For instance, the article presents data on the effectiveness of e-cigarettes as smoking cessation tools alongside evidence of their adverse health effects, such as cardiovascular and respiratory issues. This balanced approach ensures that the article does not disproportionately favor one perspective over another.
The new content is supported by a range of reliable sources, including recent peer-reviewed studies and authoritative reviews, which helps to maintain neutrality by representing a broad spectrum of expert opinions. Additionally, the article avoids sensational language and unsubstantiated claims, focusing instead on well-supported scientific findings and documented evidence. The sections on regulatory aspects and public perceptions provide a diverse range of viewpoints, reflecting the complexity of the topic without promoting any particular agenda.
