Impact of cannabis knowledge and attitudes on real-world practice.
Article in Annals of allergy, asthma & immunology : official publication of the American College of Allergy, Asthma, & Immunology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundIncreased cannabis consumption worldwide challenges allergists because of an upsurge in cannabis allergy and need to discuss cannabis with patients.
objectiveTo determine the knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding cannabis among allergists and their approach to recognizing and diagnosing suspected cannabis allergy.
methodsThe International Allergist Canna Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices Survey was completed by members from 3 International Allergy Societies. Survey questions included the following: 13 on cannabis attitudes, 7 on cannabis knowledge, and 4 on real-world allergy practices. Knowledge level was dichotomized and Statistical Package for the Social Sciences TwoStep Cluster Analysis grouped participants by attitudes. Multivariate analysis determined the relationship of knowledge and attitude to practice delivery.
resultsOf 570 eligible surveys started, 445 (78.1%) were completed. Participants were 49.7% of female sex, 65.9% aged 24 to 56 years, approximately 70% in practice for more than or equal to 10 years, and 29.2% practicing in an area where cannabis use is illegal. Of the respondents, 43.1% reported consulting on patients with suspected cannabis allergy and 54.7% had undertaken skin prick testing, in vitro cannabis testing, or both. Statistically significant differences were found between the 3 societies for most variables analyzed. Analysis of attitudes revealed 3 clusters named Traditional, Progressive, and Unsure. Those with more progressive attitudes toward cannabis and who had more knowledge were more comfortable speaking to patients about cannabis and more often asked patients on how often and how they used cannabis (all P < .001).
conclusionVarying knowledge and attitudes toward cannabis affecting comfort communicating with patients about cannabis were found in members of 3 allergy societies supporting the need for more cannabis research and education.
