Feasibility and acceptability of texting school-aged adolescents to assess daily substance use among community-based black and white youth.
Article in Addictive behaviors, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundEcological momentary assessment (EMA) is well-suited to measure adolescent substance use. Previous research with adolescents, particularly racially minoritized adolescents, has predominantly provided mobile devices to participants as a strategy to reduce structural barriers to technology access. This report examined feasibility and acceptability of a text-message-delivered EMA protocol to adolescents' personal phones.
methodsNon-Hispanic Black and White adolescents aged 14-18 years with mobile phone access and past-30-day substance use were recruited from community settings. Respondents (n = 36; 55.5 % female; 55.5 % White) completed a 14-day diary assessing substance use.
resultsRespondents completed M = 13.8 (SD = 1.36) diaries for a compliance rate of 93.5 %. Black respondents completed significantly fewer diaries (87.9 %) than White respondents (97.9 %) although compliance rates were high among both groups. Adolescents reported high acceptability of the protocol, with 97.1 % willing to participate again.
conclusionFindings suggest text-message-based EMA delivered to personal phones is acceptable and feasible for assessing substance use among adolescents. As the sociodemographic "digital divide" narrows among adolescents, this cost-effective and equitable method becomes more feasible.
