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

objectiveGiven increasing rates of daily cannabis use and Cannabis Use Disorder (CUD) in the United States, it is imperative to understand CUD mechanisms in high-risk groups. Cannabis users with high distress intolerance (DI) are at elevated risk for severe and chronic CUD, but neural mechanisms linking CUD and DI are unknown. Cross-sectional data suggests that acute stress modulation of the cannabis and threat cue-elicited late positive potential (LPP), a neurophysiological marker of motivated attention, are possible mechanisms. However, longitudinal research is needed to clarify the roles of these elicited LPPs in CUD maintenance.

methodSixty cannabis users with high DI were randomized a brief computerized intervention targeting DI or a control intervention. Elicited LPPs were measured before and after a stressor at baseline and postintervention. Intervention effects on stress modulation of the cannabis and threat LPPs, as well as their prospective associations with CUD, were assessed.

resultsElicited LPPs did not significantly change in either intervention group. Acute stress enhancement of the cannabis LPP predicted more severe CUD and greater chronicity at 4-month follow-up.

conclusionsCannabis and threat LPPs were not altered by a brief DI intervention despite improvement in DI and cannabis use outcomes. Given that acute stress enhancement of the cannabis LPP predicted poorer CUD outcome, it may be a fruitful intervention target in distress intolerant cannabis users.
