Association between Electronic Cigarettes Use and Asthma in the United States: Data from the National Health Interview Survey 2016-2019.
Article in Yonsei medical journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
purposeThis article aimed to investigate 1) whether electronic cigarette (EC) users are more likely to experience asthma attacks or emergency room (ER) visits due to asthma than non-users and 2) how age and smoking behaviors moderate the effect size of the association. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe used National Health Interview Survey data from 2016-2019. Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the association between current EC use and having an asthma attack and ER visitation due to asthma. Interaction terms were included to explore the moderation effects of age and cigarette smoking status. Subgroup analysis was conducted according to age group.
resultsOf the 218911 participants, 2.0% of them experienced an asthma attack, and 0.5% visited the ER due to asthma. Current EC use was associated with higher odds of having an asthma attack. In interaction analysis, age and smoking status were identified as a moderator in the relationship between EC use and asthma attacks. Participants in their 20s or 30s showed the highest interaction effect.
conclusionOur analysis indicates the potential impact of EC use on public health and the moderating effects of smoking behavior.
