1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

objectiveCannabis has been shown to impair driving performance, but much of extant research has been conducted with relatively low concentration products, not reflective of the marketplace in states with legal adult recreational cannabis use. The study examined driving performance after cannabis use, inclusive of high concentration tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) products.

methodsParticipants (

resultsThere were significant changes in lane departures, SDLP and speed measures from baseline to post use, depending on the participant group and time point. When compared to the control group, the occasional-flower group had a greater increase in rate of lane departures (0.16 departures/minute at baseline and 0.47 at Post 1,

conclusionsThe occasional-flower group exhibited an increase in lane departures, not seen in other groups, consistent with tolerance in the daily-use groups. There was a notable absence of declines in driving performance for the daily-concentrate group. Changes in driving performance were relatively small across all groups.
