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

introductionIndividuals dependent on alcohol or illicit drugs are vulnerable to cigarette smoking and related adverse health outcomes. Less research has been conducted regarding whether these same groups are vulnerable to smokeless tobacco (ST) use. The goal of this study is to examine vulnerability to ST use among individuals with other drug dependence.

methodsUtilizing the most recent (2011) National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NDSUH), we determined odds ratios (ORs) for current cigarette smoking and ST use among those with current alcohol, cocaine, heroin, and marijuana dependence, adjusting for relevant sociodemographic characteristics. Vulnerability to cigarette smoking was assessed to confirm that alcohol and illicit drug dependence were associated with increased smoking in these data sets, as shown in prior studies. Identical analyses were completed in the 2009 and 2010 NSDUH to assess generality.

resultsOdds for current cigarette smoking were increased for each category of dependence (p < .0005): alcohol (OR with 99% CI = 3.30 [2.58, 4.21]), cocaine (OR = 4.50 [1.53, 13.20]), heroin (OR = 7.84 [1.92, 32.03]), and marijuana (OR = 3.55 [2.59, 4.88]). Odds for current ST use were also increased among those with alcohol dependence (OR = 1.56 [1.06, 2.30], p = .003) but not illicit drug dependence. Generality of the findings was confirmed in the 2009 and 2010 NSDUH.

conclusionsConsistent with earlier reports, alcohol and illicit drug dependence are associated with robust increases in risk for cigarette smoking. In the case of alcohol dependence, but not illicit drug dependence, this vulnerability also extends to ST use.
