Longitudinal associations between e-cigarette use and onset of multiple modes of cannabis use among US adolescents.
Article in Addictive behaviors, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
objectiveTo examine the prospective associations between e-cigarette use and subsequent onset of various modes of cannabis use during a 12-month follow-up period among US adolescents.
methodsData were from the Wave 4 (2017, baseline) and Wave 4.5 (12-month follow-up) surveys of the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study, a nationally representative, longitudinal cohort study. Study population was cannabis-naïve US adolescents (12-16 years) at baseline who reported cannabis use status at follow-up (N = 9,692). Outcomes were modality-specific past-12-month cannabis use (vaping, blunting, smoking with hookah) and any cannabis use (past-12-month and past-30-day) at follow-up. Multivariate logistic regressions were used to estimate the weighted association between baseline past-30-day e-cigarette use and each outcome.
resultsBaseline e-cigarette use was significantly associated with onset of cannabis vaping (aOR = 4.00, 95% CI = 2.25-7.10), blunting (aOR = 5.30, 95% CI = 2.82-9.94), any cannabis use (aOR = 3.94, 95% CI = 2.35-6.62), and past-30-day cannabis use (aOR = 4.47, 95%CI = 2.64-7.58) at follow-up. Non-Hispanic blacks were more likely to report past-12-month blunting (aOR = 1.55, 95% CI = 1.07-2.24) and smoking cannabis with hookah (aOR = 3.13, 95% CI = 1.14-8.63) compared with non-Hispanic whites. Other tobacco use, alcohol use, perceiving e-cigarette use as having little or some harm, older age, high severity of externalizing mental health problems, and living in states legalized adult recreational cannabis use were significantly associated with future onset of cannabis vaping, blunting, and any cannabis use.
conclusionsThe association of e-cigarette use with cannabis vaping was not stronger than its association with other modes of cannabis use. Future studies are needed to explain the mechanisms linking e-cigarettes and cannabis use.
