We conducted an adjusted binomial logistic regression analysis to predict past-30-day e-cigarette use with sexual identity (straight, gay\/lesbian\/bisexual\/something else [LGB+]), race-ethnicity (non-Hispanic White, non-Hispanic Black\/African American, non-Hispanic Asian, non-Hispanic American Indian and Alaska Native, Hispanic, and Other races) and an interaction term between sexual identity and race-ethnicity in one model, adjusted for age, education, cigarette smoking, and diagnoses of chronic diseases.

The overall interaction effect between sexual identity and race-ethnicity on outcome was significant among total respondents (p = .004) and females (p &amp;lt; .001), but not males.
