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

objectivesWe aimed to examine whether there are sex and age differences in psychosocial risk factors of marijuana use during adolescence.

methodsData were drawn from 57,767 adolescents (8

resultsOverall, 20.6% of the adolescents reported past-year marijuana use: 12.1% occasional use, 4.3% frequent use, and 3.8% regular use. Girls were less likely to be frequent and regular marijuana users (frequent use: OR=0.83 [0.75, 0.93]; regular use: OR=0.41 [0.36, 0.48]) while no sex difference was noted for occasional use. Also, the odds of deviant behaviors were higher as the frequencies of marijuana use were higher. Compared to younger girls, older boys and girls had higher association between all levels of marijuana use and low self-esteem, low perceived harm, peer influence and perceived easy access. Besides, younger boys were more likely than younger girls to report an association between regular marijuana use with low self-esteem, peer influence, and perceived easy access but not with perceived low harm. CONCLUSIONS/IMPORTANCE: Findings suggest the relationship between these psychosocial correlates and frequency of marijuana involvement varies across sex and age groups. These variations ask for a nuanced approach to prevention of marijuana involvement in different groups of youth.
