Influence of energy drink consumption on perceived quality of life in young adults and adult population.

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.
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
Background: Energy drink (ED) use is common among young adults and adult populations and may be linked to poorer quality of life (QoL). This study examined the prevalence of ED consumption and its association with QoL in Spanish adults. Method: A cross-sectional design was used with a sample of 1,146 participants aged 18 to 54 years, recruited by convenience sampling through university mailing lists and social media. The web-based questionnaire collected self-reported their energy drink and other substance use and their quality of life (WHOQOL-BREF). Multivariable linear and ordinal logistic regressions were stratified by sex (given a significant sex×ED interaction) and adjusted for age, living arrangement, education, occupation, self-rated health, and past-month use of alcohol, tobacco, and cannabis. Results: Among 1,146 participants, ED use was 62.7% ever, 21.3% past 30 days, and 5.7% daily. Although most associations were not statistically significant, point estimates suggested lower QoL among ED consumers. In men, daily ED use was associated with lower psychological (mental health) domain scores ( Conclusion: ED consumption is associated with poorer QoL indicators, particularly mental health in men and environmental perceptions in women. Findings support targeted prevention and proportionate regulation (e.g., labeling, marketing oversight), with attention to sex and age profiles within adult populations.
