Trace elements under adverse conditions.A few.
Even the "pro" vaping studies have found measurable levels of metals, and in varying degrees of misuse stuff like formaldehyde too.
That said, everything they found is also present in tobacco smoke, in much higher levels.

Fair pointHigher than trace under normal conditions.
But, under the levels considered dangerous for inhalation exposure in all but the worst cases of misuse, and even then not worse than smoke.
I'm all for disproving inaccurate scare studies, but saying there's (effectively) nothing there is also misinformation.
They said vaping is at least 95% less harmful than smoking.

Without knowing much about it / hunting around for more recent findings - the one thing i would say is these articles are pretty darned old (Both dated 2015).
I would imagine with the research / laws / dangers present and quite frankly outright scaremungery around; there must be more recent findings out there, and that this is a pretty fast paced "World" in terms of change / discoveries / studies etc
