Secondhand Harms From Cannabis Use: Findings From Washington State, United States.

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
objectiveThere are few studies on harms attributed to others' cannabis use. We assessed individual- and contextual-level correlates of secondhand harms from cannabis use and considered whether cannabis legalization support, along with cannabis user status, predicted such harms.
methodData were from five repeated cross-sectional, state-representative telephone surveys of Washington State residents ages 18 and older, years 2014-2016. For four surveys, outcome variables were past-12-month reports of experiencing any of five harms (family, traffic-related, vandalism, physical, or financial), and in 2016 only, three harm types separately: (a) harassment, (b) safety-related (traffic, vandalism, physical), and (c) family or financial, attributed to another's cannabis use. All models included a three-category typology comprising participants' own cannabis use and whether they supported cannabis use legalization (user supporter, nonuser nonsupporter, nonuser supporter). We estimated logistic regression models for the full sample and by gender, adjusting for individual- and Census tract-level covariates.
resultsCompared with non-cannabis users supporting legalization, nonusers who did not support legalization reported significantly greater odds of perceiving secondhand cannabis harms. Cannabis users supporting legalization did not differ from nonuser supporters. Predictors of reported harms also differed by gender. Whereas current drinkers had lower odds of reporting any harm from others' cannabis use overall, heavy-drinking women but not men reported greater odds of any cannabis secondhand harm.
conclusionsAugmenting research on individual harms associated with cannabis use by including secondhand impacts such as social and family problems, along with safety risks, provides a more comprehensive picture of the effects of cannabis use.
