摘要: Objective We assessed how many peer-reviewed publications reporting chemical quantities and/or yields from electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) have included adequate method validation characteristics in the publication for appropriate interpretation of data quality informing tobacco regulatory science. Methods searched 5 databases (Web Knowledge, PubMed, SciFinder, Embase, EBSCOhost) ENDS between January 2007 and September 2018. Of 283 screened, 173 were relevant analysis. identified that report a certain degree control quality, ie, marginally validated methods (MVMs). MVMs refer to that: (1) 3 or more International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) characteristics, (2) state was validated, (3) cite their own previous publication(s) MVMs, (4) use within accreditation scope an accredited laboratory. Results Overall, 97 (56%) studies. This percentage also reflects distribution majority 28 chemicals measured by MVMs. Conclusions study highlights need sufficient following guidance ensure accuracy reliability published analytical proper interpretations may support policy.
