Youth E-cigarette, Blunt, and Other Tobacco Use Profiles: Does SES Matter?
Article in Tobacco regulatory science, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 36 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveWe examined the associations between socioeconomic status (SES) and adolescent polytobacco use profiles (including e-cigarettes and blunts).
methodsAdolescents (N = 1932) completed surveys conducted in 2014 in 3 Connecticut high schools. Within a Latent Class Analysis (LCA) framework, logistic regressions examined associations between SES and polytobacco use profiles comprising never, ever, and current e-cigarette, blunt, cigarette, cigar, cigarillo, hookah, and smokeless tobacco use.
resultsWe identified 5 classes: (1) current polytobacco users; (2) ever polytobacco users; (3) current e-cigarette, blunt, and cigarette users; (4) ever e-cigarette and blunt users; and (5) never users. Low SES, relative to high SES, was associated with greater likelihood of being: (1) an ever polytobacco user; (2) a current e-cigarette, blunt, and cigarette user; and (3) an ever e-cigarette and blunt user, relative to a never user.
conclusionsLow SES is associated with membership in distinct polytobacco use latent classes. Regulatory initiatives that focus exclusively on cigarette use may miss the opportunity to influence adolescent use of other products, which may be especially relevant to low-income individuals. Future research should examine whether targeting a broader range of products reduces SES-related tobacco use disparities.
