Quitting e-cigarettes: Quit attempts and quit intentions among youth and young adults.
Article in Preventive medicine reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06196489 (Nicotine Cessation), which is not on this map. Cited by 45 papers, 3 of them syntheses 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.

Abstract
While youth and young adult e-cigarette use has risen in the U.S., few studies have explored e-cigarette cessation behavior. This study estimates quit attempts and intentions among young people (aged 15-36) since the rise of high-nicotine products, and examines factors associated with e-cigarette quit attempts and intentions. Current e-cigarette users (past 30-day use, not already quit) were drawn from a national probability-based cohort sample. Data were collected from September to December 2019 (n = 1158). Weighted proportions of past-year quit attempts, intentions to quit in next 30 days, and general intentions to quit (at some point) were calculated. Models estimated cessation outcomes with respect to harm perceptions, friend use, dependence, use frequency, combustible use and demographic factors. Among current e-cigarette users, 54.2% reported general intentions to quit, 15.3% reported intention to quit within 30 days, and 33.3% reported a past-year quit attempt. Past-year quit attempts were associated with higher levels of harm perceptions (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) = 2.08, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.49-2.92), dependence (aOR = 1.92, 95% CI: 1.44-2.56) and daily use (28 + days) compared to infrequent use (1-5 days) (aOR = 0.23, 95% CI: 0.12-0.43). General intentions to quit were positively associated with harm perceptions (aOR = 1.77, 95% CI: 1.23-2.56) and dependence (aOR = 1.89, 95% CI: 1.41-2.52), and negatively associated with daily use compared to infrequent use (aOR = 0.35, 95% CI: 0.19-0.65). Findings indicate that over half of young e-cigarette users want to quit, highlighting a critical need for policies and resources to promote and sustain e-cigarette cessation among young people.
