Perceptions of Oral Nicotine Pouches on Reddit: Observational Study.
Observational study in Journal of medical Internet research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 23 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
backgroundOral nicotine pouches are a new form of tobacco-free nicotine products launched in recent years with a variety of flavors.
objectiveThis study aims to examine the public perceptions and discussions of oral nicotine pouches on Reddit, a popular social media platform for sharing user experiences.
methodsBetween February 15, 2019, and February 12, 2021, a total of 2410 Reddit posts related to oral nicotine pouches were obtained over a 2-year period. After the removal of unrelated or commercial posts, 653 Reddit posts related to oral nicotine pouches remained. Topics and sentiments related to oral nicotine pouches on Reddit were hand coded.
resultsThe number of Reddit posts related to oral nicotine pouches increased during the study period. Content analysis showed that the most popular topic was "sharing product information and user experience" (366/653, 56%), in which sharing oral nicotine pouch products and user experiences were dominant. The next popular topic was "asking product-related questions" (product properties and product recommendations; 115/653, 17.6%), followed by "quitting nicotine products" such as vaping or smoking through use of oral nicotine pouches or quitting the oral nicotine pouches themselves (83/653, 12.7%) and "discussing oral nicotine pouch-related health" symptoms or concerns related to oral nicotine pouches (74/653, 11.3%). The least popular topic was "legality and permissions" related to oral nicotine pouches (15/653, 2.3%). In addition, a greater number of Reddit posts described positive attitudes compared to negative attitudes toward oral nicotine pouches (354/653, 54.2% vs 101/653, 15.5%; P<.001).
conclusionsReddit posts overall had a positive attitude toward oral nicotine pouches and users were actively sharing product and user experiences. Our study provides the first insight on up-to-date oral nicotine pouch discussions on social media.
