    ObjectiveNicotine use can influence inadequate sleep, but less is known about the associations of exclusive and dual use of electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) with combustible cigarettes in U.S. young adults. This study assessed the associations between current exclusive e-cigarette use, exclusive cigarette smoking, and dual e-cigarette and combustible cigarette use and inadequate sleep duration among U.S. young adults.MethodsWe performed a secondary analysis of 2020 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) data including 13,978 U.S. young adults ages 18-24 years. Inadequate sleep duration was assessed categorically using the National Sleep Foundation's age-specific recommendations that define <7 h as inadequate sleep. Weighted logistic regression models were performed while adjusting for participants' sex, race/ethnicity, education level, annual household income level, body mass index, current physical activity, mental health status, disability status, current alcohol use, and current smokeless tobacco use.ResultsConcerning use patterns, 11.8% of young adults were exclusive e-cigarette users, 4.7% were exclusive cigarette smokers, and 3.8% were dual e-cigarette and combustible cigarette users. Exclusive e-cigarette users (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 1.41, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.16-1.72), exclusive cigarette smokers (AOR = 1.63, 95%CI = 1.22-2.18), and dual product users (AOR = 2.03, 95%CI = 1.44-2.86) were at increased odds of having inadequate sleep duration compared to non-users, while adjusting for the covariates. Additionally, dual product users were at increased odds (AOR = 1.52, 95%CI = 1.06-2.19) of reporting inadequate sleep duration compared to exclusive e-cigarette users, while adjusting for the covariates.ConclusionsCurrent e-cigarette and cigarette use may influence inadequate sleep among U.S. young adults. Tobacco cessation efforts may encourage increased sleep health.Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
