Modification of Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems Among Adolescents and Young Adults.
Article in Pediatrics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
objectivesWe assessed awareness and perceptions of, information sources about, and engagement in modifying electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) among adolescents and young adults (AYAs).
methodsAYAs (N = 1018) endorsing past-month ENDS use completed a survey on awareness and use of the following modifications: (1) refilling rechargeable cartridges/pods or (2) disposable pods, (3) rewicking or (4) recharging disposable pods, (5) modifying nicotine e-liquids (eg, changing propylene glycol/vegetable glycerin, nicotine), (6) combining nicotine and cannabis for simultaneous vaping, and (7) putting cannabis in ENDS designed for nicotine vaping. Logistic regression assessed how sources of information (eg, friends, social media, nonsocial media Web sites, vape shops) about and perceptions of ENDS modifications associated with ENDS modifications.
resultsRefilling (69.0% heard, 40.1% tried) and recharging the battery (66.4% heard, 35.8% tried) of disposable pods were most common. Friends (64.4%) and social media (46.7%) were the most common sources of information. Notable significant associations between information sources and modifications were: 1. nonsocial media Web sites and vape shops with rewicking and recharging disposable devices and modifying nicotine e-liquid; 2. nonsocial media Web sites with refilling rechargeable cartridges/pods and disposable pods; and 3. social media with recharging disposable devices and mixing nicotine and cannabis liquids. Perceptions of reduced harm and "coolness" were associated with various modifications. DISCUSSION: AYAs are aware of and modify ENDS for purposes unintended by manufacturers. ENDS policies should consider unintended ENDS use to safeguard public health. Prevention efforts should communicate about the potential harms of ENDS modifications.
