Determination of risk factors influencing substance use among Turkish-origin immigrants in Germany.
Article in Turkish journal of medical sciences, 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
Background/aim: Increasing international migration poses unique challenges, especially regarding health outcomes and behaviors such as substance use. This study aims to identify risk factors influencing substance use among Turkish-origin immigrants in Germany. Materials and methods: Data were obtained from the STEPS survey conducted by the Presidency for Turks Abroad and Related Communities (YTB) in 2021 in Germany. A total of 1157 participants were selected through a quota sampling method. Data analysis involved descriptive statistics and logistic regression utilizing IBM SPSS Statistics 21. Results: The study found a significant association between substance use and variables such as generation status, age, and sex. Third-generation immigrants showed a higher propensity for substance use compared to the first and second generations. Significant relationships were also observed between substance use and other risk behaviors such as tobacco and alcohol consumption. Conclusion: Substance use among Turkish-origin immigrants in Germany is influenced by generational status, with younger and third-generation individuals being at higher risk. Additionally, tobacco and alcohol use are strong predictors of substance use, highlighting the need for targeted interventions, especially for young migrants.
