Prevalence and associated factors of shisha smoking among students in Senegal: Global Youth Tobacco Survey 2020.
Article in Tobacco induced diseases, 2024. 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
introductionAlthough shisha smoking is banned in Senegal, it has become increasingly popular, especially among youth. Despite the health risks associated with shisha smoking, there are few studies on shisha smoking in West Africa and none in Senegal. Our study assessed the prevalence and factors associated with shisha smoking among students aged 13-15 years in Senegal.
methodsWe used the 2020 Global Youth Tobacco Survey (GYTS) Senegal data from 2524 students aged 13-15 years. We calculated the weighted prevalence of ever and current (past 30 days) shisha smoking. Multivariable logistic regression analyses identified factors associated with ever and current shisha smoking among students.
resultsThe prevalences of ever and current shisha smoking were 9.8% (95% CI: 7.7-12.3) and 2.2% (95% CI: 1.5-3.1), respectively. Ever shisha smoking was significantly associated with being male (AOR=1.97; 95% CI: 1.33-2.92), current cigarette smoking (AOR=7.54; 95% CI: 2.95-19.29), higher class grade (AOR=2.27; 95% CI:1.10-4.67), more weekly pocket money (AOR=3.29; 95% CI:1.36-7.95), current use of smokeless tobacco (AOR=11.53; 95% CI: 4.98- 26.72), and exposure to secondhand cigarette smoke in public (AOR=1.55; 95% CI: 1.00-2.41). Current shisha smoking was significantly associated with current cigarette smoking (AOR=21.75; 95% CI: 6.08-77.78), more weekly pocket money (AOR=8.91; 95% CI: 1.75-45.40), current use of smokeless tobacco (AOR=8.26; 95% CI: 2.07-33.04), and fathers' smoking (AOR=3.34; 95% CI: 1.24-8.96).
conclusionsOne in 10 students aged 13-15 years have ever smoked shisha and 2.2% were currently smoking it, suggesting that shisha smoking is a public health concern in Senegal. Senegal might consider offering students more education on the harms of shisha, both in schools and through comprehensive media campaigns that address all tobacco products.
