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

This pilot ecological momentary assessment (EMA) study tested the associations between exposure to anti-e-cigarette content on social media and e-cigarette use behavior. For exposure to anti-e-cigarette posts, participants were asked to follow the study account on Instagram, on which anti-e-cigarette content were posted regularly. In addition, we assessed participants' exposure to pro-e-cigarette content in their daily lives and examined the effects of such exposure on behavior. Participants were 29 diverse young adult current e-cigarette users (18-30 year olds; 54% women), who provided data 3 times daily, for 3 weeks via a mobile phone based EMA application. Relative to no exposure, exposure to anti-e-cigarette content was associated with decreased recent e-cigarette use frequency at the next assessment time-point (p < 0.05; 2-tailed). In addition, a statistically significant concurrent association was found between exposure to pro-e-cigarette content (relative to no exposure) and higher e-cigarette use (p < 0.05; 2-tailed). The current data are some of the first to show that exposure to anti-e-cigarette content on social media may have real time effects on decreased e-cigarette use among young adults as they go about their daily lives. Policies and efforts designed to regulate pro-e-cigarette and promote anti-e-cigarette content on social media may help reduce e-cigarette use among young people.
