Messages About Tobacco and Alcohol Co-Users.

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
objectivePeople who use both alcohol and combustible tobacco have an increased risk of developing cancer. Few interventions have been developed to inform people about the risks of co-use. This study developed and tested messages about the risks of alcohol and combustible tobacco co-use among adults.
methodIn June to July 2021, we surveyed 1,300 U.S. adults who had used both alcohol and combustible tobacco products within the past 30 days. After reporting their awareness of diseases caused by tobacco and alcohol co-use, participants were randomly assigned to four between-subjects experiments that manipulated specific cancer health effects versus the word
resultsAwareness of health effects caused by alcohol and tobacco co-use ranged from moderately high for throat cancer (65.4%) to moderately low for colorectal cancer (23.1%). Messages about cancer health effects increased PME more than messages about noncancer health effects (
conclusionsMessages about some cancer health effects of co-using alcohol and tobacco may be effective when communicating the harms of both drinking alcohol and using tobacco.
