I don't understand this:

"In the new study, led by Abra Jeffers of Massachusetts General Hospital, researchers were able to do two additional analyses: one that looked at cardiovascular disease risk in people who use cannabis but had never used tobacco products and a second one that looked at people who used cannabis but had never used tobacco products or e-cigarettes. Without tobacco use, the higher odds of heart attack and stroke persisted for people who used cannabis. For those without tobacco or e-cigarette use, only the higher odds of stroke remained."

Are't e-cigarettes tobacco products?

"E-cigarettes" are just "vaporizers" broadly. They can contain nicotine, just flavoring, herbs such as lavender, cannabinoids, etc.
they could contain synthetic nicotine
