I have researched this aswell, and unless you are allergic, there is not really any bad side affects to inhaling pg, I have read that some people experience itching, but to me that seems like an allergic reaction aswell.

I suffer itching on too high a PG but it is the same as when I get bad hayfever in the summer which is strange, and another point I don't eat skinned fruit as it causes itching in my mouth and slight swelling which I read is also associated with hay fever.

Hmmm... doesn't all this talk of not vaping in front of children play right into the hands of the anti smoking lobby and possibly, their gateway theory?
My parents both smoked like chimneys in front of me all the time when I was a bairn and it hasn't seemed to do me much harm... after all, I turned out pretty norma..... oh... wait a minute.

I vape in front of my kids and my 4 yr old can tell the difference. It all comes down to parenta educating thier kids. Thats our job unfortunately some daft parents out there dont do it or shelter thier kids and the governments nannies have to pick up the slack.
Well, it's not that bad that one little dancing baby might generate an interest into vaping and children, and then a discussion about that

I appreciate that the study in question focus on several compounds, and that there are studies suggesting exposure to pg in saturation conditions doesn't give raise to particularly worrying short term effects.
However, we are talking about different things and we have different concerns.
The long term effects I am interested in are those arising after a number of years of continual exposure, or even some kind of less intensive exposure, dependently on the compound we are investigating.
From how you describe the findings of the studies you refer, it seems to me they mostly considered detectable effects over a short period.
The equivalent of this for smoking would be to say that after several hours continual exposure to smoke most subjects would lament a certain sore throat, over several days of exposure with interruptions, many subjects would notice that exposure actually seems to attenuate the sore throat.
The vast majority of subjects will also find that throat irritation will disappear pretty rapidly if exposure cycles are days apart or stopped completely.
Actually, a certain number of subject won't suffer any irritation, it will take many years (15 in my case) for this to become apparent and chronical.
What does this tell me about the range of cancers, vascular pathologies and so forth smoking is believed to lead to? Nothing.
Conversely, data about hundred thousands patients, active smokers, passive smokers and non smokers, over say 30 years, will tell me there is what looks like a correlation.
The study I mentioned is interesting to me because it takes this kind of approach, and is therefore indicative of this type of long term effects. Then, it might well be not flawed, but not useful enough given it focusses on a range of compounds, not only PG.
But the methodology is the right one.
I didn't stop smoking because of the sore throat, personally.
