Original Note:
This kind of study can only ever show a correlation, never causation. It's expected that old enough vapers show these signs as they are nearly all ex-smokers. The association would be between CVD and former smoking. Glantz had a paper retracted for this same false conclusion. https://retractionwatch.com/2020/02/18/journal-retracts-hotly-contested-paper-on-vaping-and-heart-attacks/ https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/JAHA.119.014519
