Socioeconomic status is associated with the prevalence and co-occurrence of risk factors for cigarette smoking initiation during adolescence.

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
objectivesTo investigate whether the prevalence or co-occurrence of risk factors for cigarette smoking initiation differ by socioeconomic status (SES) and whether SES interacts with risk factors to increase initiation.
methodsIn 2005, 1451 5th grade never smokers (mean age 10.7 years) in Montréal, Canada, provided baseline data, with follow-up in 6th and/or 7th grade (2005-2007). Poisson regression analyses estimated the association between 13 risk factors and initiation. Excess risk of each risk factor in low vs. moderate-high SES participants was assessed.
resultsCigarette smoking was initiated by 9.4% of participants (n = 137). Low SES was associated with a higher prevalence and co-occurrence of risk factors. The estimated association of most risk factors with initiation was similar across SES, although participants from low SES neighborhoods whose mothers had no university education had three times the risk of initiation [ARR = 3.10 (1.19, 8.08)] compared to more affluent peers.
conclusionsTobacco control efforts must address the higher prevalence and co-occurrence of risk factors in lower SES contexts since these may render initiation highly probable in many lower SES youth.
