Intra-Ethnic Racial Differences in Waterpipe Tobacco Smoking among Latinos?

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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesThis study examined differences in waterpipe smoking (both lifetime and current) by race and ethnicity. More specifically, we evaluated intra-ethnic racial differences among Latinos using a nationally representative sample.
methodsPooled data from the National Adult Tobacco Survey (NATS) [2012-2014] was used, in which Log-Poisson multivariable regression models were deployed to determine the prevalence of waterpipe smoking behavior. Models were stratified by gender and we further investigated acculturation, controlling for relevant sociodemographic characteristics.
resultsIn fully-adjusted models assessing lifetime WTS, Black Latinos and White Latinos exhibited an increase prevalence of lifetime WTS compared to their non-Hispanic white counterparts. Once stratifying by gender, Black Latino men (PR = 1.49; 95% CI = 1.16, 1.90) exhibited increased prevalence of lifetime WTS compared to their non-Hispanic white men counterparts; although white Latino men (PR = 0.88; 95% CI = 0.80, 0.98) exhibited decreased prevalence compared to their non-Hispanic white male counterparts. Similar trends were found for current WTS among men. In fully adjusted models assessing lifetime WTS, among women, only white Latina's (PR = 1.23; 95% CI = 1.04, 1.46) exhibited increased prevalence compared to their non-Hispanic white women counterparts. When evaluating current WTS, Black Latina's (PR = 2.19; 95% CI = 1.32, 3.65) and white Latinas (PR = 1.28; 95% CI = 1.00, 1.63) exhibited increased prevalence of WTS compared to their non-Hispanic white women counterparts. Conclusions/Importance: Among the U.S. general adult population, intra-ethnic racial differences in WTS behaviors exist among Latinos; and is shaped by gender. Future efforts to eliminate racial disparities in WTS should be attentive intra-ethnic racial differences among Latinos.
