§SMOKE Nicotine and Tobacco Youth Cohort

The §SMOKE Cohort Study aims to improve understanding of tobacco and nicotine use among adolescents and young adults in Denmark. The study focuses on a rapidly changing nicotine landscape that includes cigarettes, e-cigarettes, nicotine pouches, heated tobacco products, and other nicotine products. The study is based on the hypothesis that tobacco and nicotine use during adolescence and young adulthood follows different developmental pathways and that individual characteristics, social influences, and environmental factors affect initiation, continued use, cessation, relapse, and switching between products. The study further hypothesizes that different patterns of tobacco and nicotine use are associated with differences in educational, health, and social outcomes. By following young people over time, the study seeks to improve understanding of how tobacco and nicotine use develops, which factors influence these behaviors, and what consequences may be associated with different patterns of use. The findings will contribute to evidence supporting tobacco and nicotine prevention efforts and public health policy for adolescents and young adults in Denmark.

Young Adult Food Messaging Experiment

The primary objective of this study is to identify the food counter-marketing messages (i.e., messages that describe deceptive marketing tactics used by food companies) that are perceived as most effective among young adults.

Effects of Passive Recovery Methods After High-Intensity Cycling Exercise

This randomized crossover trial will investigate the acute effects of five passive recovery interventions following a standardized high-intensity cycling exercise protocol. Participants will complete the standardized high-intensity cycling exercise protocol during five separate study sessions. Immediately after each exercise session, participants will receive one of five recovery interventions: compression therapy, vacuum therapy, kinesiology taping, passive rest, or classical massage. The order of the interventions will be randomized according to a balanced crossover sequence. Each participant will experience all five recovery interventions during the study period. Outcomes related to post-exercise recovery will be assessed across intervention periods.
