- The prevalence of heated tobacco product (HTP) use highly increased over the last decade in specific countries among teenagers and adults.
- Knowing the patterns of HTP use could put an end to the tobacco industry-led debate about the effectiveness of this product as a harm reduction tool.
- More than two out of three HTP users were dual users.
- HTP users were more likely to start conventional cigarette smoking, while current cigarette smokers using HTPs were less likely to quit.
- The results of our review strongly suggest the need for stricter legislation on HTPs.
