Subjective experiences at e-cigarette initiation: Implications for e-cigarette and dual/poly tobacco use among youth.
Article in Addictive behaviors, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundSubjective experiences (SEs) at initiation of cigarettes, cigars, and smokeless tobacco have been established as predictors of continued use. To date, less is known about the relationships between SEs at e-cigarette initiation and subsequent e-cigarette use behaviors.
methodsThis study used data from Waves 1-6 of the Texas Adolescent Tobacco and Marketing Surveillance (TATAMS) system; a population-based rapid response study of adolescents in major metropolitan areas of Texas. Participants were adolescents who self-reported ever using e-cigarettes across all 6 waves (n = 1,104; N = 460,069). Factor analyses examined structure of SEs at e-cigarette initiation. Weighted, multilevel, multivariate regression models examined role of SEs at e-cigarette initiation on subsequent past 30-day e-cigarette use behaviors.
resultsFactor analyses identified a positive (i.e., euphoria, relaxation) and a negative (i.e., dizziness, cough, nausea) domain of SEs. Positive SEs at e-cigarette initiation predicted 1.20 (95% CI: 1.02-1.42) greater odds of subsequent past 30-day e-cigarette use. Similarly, positive SEs at e-cigarette initiation predicted greater relative risk of dual/poly e-cigarette use, relative to non-use (RRR: 1.61; 95% CI: 1.24-2.10) and exclusive e-cigarette use (RRR: 1.68; 95% CI: 1.26-2.24).
conclusionThis is the first study to observe longitudinal relationships between SEs at e-cigarette initiation and subsequent e-cigarette use behaviors. Findings highlight the importance of preventing initial e-cigarette use among adolescents.
