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

Objectives: Multiple tobacco product (MTP) use is common among tobacco users. Current, detailed estimates of MTP use patterns among users of different tobacco products can inform tobacco treatment and regulation. Methods: Data were pooled from 2021 to 2023 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (United States) adult respondents. We derived estimates of past-month MTP use, mutually exclusive use patterns, and correlates of MTP use among current tobacco users, and stratified by tobacco product used and age. Results: MTP use was reported by 23.7 % of tobacco users; it was most prevalent among ages 18-25 (34.6 %) and 26-34 (31.0 %). Past-month dual cigarette/e-cigarette use was the most prevalent MTP use pattern (39.6 % of MTP users). Binge drinking, major depressive episode, and illicit drug use were associated with greater odds of MTP use. Older age was associated with lower odds of MTP use, except among ENDS users, where odds of MTP use decreased with older age. Conclusions: MTP use is prevalent among adult tobacco users. We report current, comprehensive estimates of MTP use and associated correlates. MTP use and product use patterns varied by age among users of different products. Findings have implications for clinicians, tobacco treatment specialists, and regulators.
