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
introductionDisposable e-cigarettes are the predominant type of vaping product used by adolescents and pose a significant public health concern. Identifying factors contributing to this growing trend is essential to curbing the vaping epidemic among youths. This study aims to investigate the growing prevalence and correlates of disposable e-cigarette use among US students.
methodsData from 48437 US middle and high school students from the 2021 and 2022 National Youth Tobacco Survey (NYTS) were analyzed using logistic and ordinal regression models to evaluate disposable e-cigarette use and frequency of use (low, medium, and high) with demographic and psychosocial factors. Weighted prevalence of current e-cigarette use with 95% CIs by device types in 2021 and 2022, were calculated. Odds ratios (ORs) of correlations of disposable e-cigarette use and frequency of use with demographic and psychosocial factors were analyzed.
resultsDisposable e-cigarette use increased from 3.9% (95% CI: 3.3-4.7) in 2021 to 5.1% (95% CI: 4.2-6.1) in 2022, and was associated with being female (OR=1.57; 95% CI: 1.29-1.91 vs male), high schoolers (OR=5.14; 95% CI: 3.96-6.67 vs middle schoolers), having low harm perceptions of e-cigarettes (OR=7.75; 95% CI: 5.58-10.75 vs lot of harm), and high exposure to marketing (OR=1.57; 95% CI: 1.05-2.35 vs low exposure). Identifying as LGBTQ (OR=1.41; 95% CI: 1.00-2.00 vs straight), having low academic performance (OR=2.16; 95% CI: 1.15-4.07, D vs A grades), and having psychological distress (OR=2.01; 95% CI: 1.64-2.47, severe vs none) were also linked to increased frequency of use.
conclusionsThis study underscores increasing disposable e-cigarette use among US students, noting existing disparities. It identifies high-risk adolescent subgroups vulnerable to disposable e-cigarette use. These findings emphasize the urgency of targeted prevention and stricter regulations on disposable e-cigarettes to combat nicotine addiction among youths.
