Vascular endothelial function is impaired by aerosol from a single IQOS HeatStick to the same extent as by cigarette smoke

Does acute exposure to IQOS aerosol impair vascular endothelial function in rats compared to cigarette smoke?

Acute exposure to IQOS aerosol impairs vascular endothelial function in a rat model similarly to cigarette smoke, suggesting it may not avoid the adverse cardiovascular effects of smoking.
