1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveNicotine use can influence inadequate sleep, but less is known about the associations of exclusive and dual use of electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) with combustible cigarettes in U.S. young adults. This study assessed the associations between current exclusive e-cigarette use, exclusive cigarette smoking, and dual e-cigarette and combustible cigarette use and inadequate sleep duration among U.S. young adults.

methodsWe performed a secondary analysis of 2020 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) data including 13,978 U.S. young adults ages 18-24 years. Inadequate sleep duration was assessed categorically using the National Sleep Foundation's age-specific recommendations that define <7 h as inadequate sleep. Weighted logistic regression models were performed while adjusting for participants' sex, race/ethnicity, education level, annual household income level, body mass index, current physical activity, mental health status, disability status, current alcohol use, and current smokeless tobacco use.

resultsConcerning use patterns, 11.8% of young adults were exclusive e-cigarette users, 4.7% were exclusive cigarette smokers, and 3.8% were dual e-cigarette and combustible cigarette users. Exclusive e-cigarette users (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 1.41, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.16-1.72), exclusive cigarette smokers (AOR = 1.63, 95%CI = 1.22-2.18), and dual product users (AOR = 2.03, 95%CI = 1.44-2.86) were at increased odds of having inadequate sleep duration compared to non-users, while adjusting for the covariates. Additionally, dual product users were at increased odds (AOR = 1.52, 95%CI = 1.06-2.19) of reporting inadequate sleep duration compared to exclusive e-cigarette users, while adjusting for the covariates.

conclusionsCurrent e-cigarette and cigarette use may influence inadequate sleep among U.S. young adults. Tobacco cessation efforts may encourage increased sleep health.
