Substance familiarity in middle childhood and adolescent substance use.
Article in Drug and alcohol dependence, 2023. 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
backgroundChildhood familiarity with (knowledge of) substances is a potentially important, currently understudied adolescent substance use risk factor. We aimed to describe changes in childhood familiarity with substances and to test whether baseline familiarity predicts early adolescent substance use.
methodsUtilizing the Substance Use Module of the longitudinal cohort study, Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD; US youth aged 9-10 years followed for 10 years) through Data Release 4 (n=7896; individuals who completed all six assessments in the first three years), we conducted longitudinal mixed models and survival analyses to describe changes in familiarity and to determine the adjusted odds of substance use by age 13 based on number of familiar substances at baseline.
resultsThe sample consisted of 3754 females and 4142 males, aged 9-10 at baseline, with majority White individuals (68.9%). Unconditional time models indicated age significantly predicted familiarity (B=0.08, p<0.001; R
conclusionsThis is the first study to characterize substance familiarity in this age range as a predictor of future substance use. Familiarity increases with age (age being the most predictive indicator). Familiarity at age 9-10 predicts early adolescent substance use. As such, childhood familiarity may represent an easily implemented screening tool for at-risk youth.
