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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsThe time to first cigarette (TTFC) of the day is an indicator of nicotine intake in adults and adolescents. However, the relation between TTFC and biological markers of nicotine addiction and health risk in youths has not been well described. The current study examined whether an earlier TTFC predicts higher levels of a tobacco-specific carcinogen, 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridal)-1 (NNAL), in regular and intermittent adolescent smokers and if this relation is mediated by nicotine intake (measured by cotinine) or cigarettes per day (CPD).

designA cross-sectional analysis of a nationally representative subsample of adolescents.

settingA general community sample from the 2007-08 and 2009-10 National Health and Nutrition and Examination Survey.

participantsA total of 215 adolescents in the United States between the ages of 12 and 19 years who reported smoking at least once in the 5 days prior to data collection. MEASUREMENTS: The primary outcome measure was urinary levels of NNAL.

findingsIn both regular and intermittent smokers, earlier TTFC was associated dose-dependently with higher levels of NNAL (P < 0.03 in both cases). TTFC had an indirect effect on NNAL, mediated by nicotine intake (cotinine) in both regular [β = -0.08, standard error (SE) = 0.03, 95% confidence interval (CI) = -0.15, -0.03] and intermittent (β = -0.02, SE = 0.01, 95% CI = -0.05, -0.002) smokers. CPD was not found to be an important mediator of the relation between TTFC and NNAL.

conclusionsTime between waking and the first cigarette of the day is correlated in daily and non-daily adolescent smokers with overall nicotine and therefore carcinogen intake.
