1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 AND

objectivesCyber dating abuse (CDA) is prevalent on college campuses, with 43% of college students experiencing CDA each year. Yet, the potential impacts of CDA victimization on college students' health outcomes remain poorly understood. Informed by the self-medication hypothesis and longitudinal data linking dating abuse to substance use outcomes, the present study tested the hypothesis that CDA victimization positively associates with college students' next-day alcohol use (number of drinks consumed, odds of any drinking) and odds of cannabis use (yes/no). We also explored whether CDA's association with next-day substance use varied as a function of gender.

methodsDaily data on alcohol use, cannabis use, and CDA victimization were collected across 60 consecutive days from 236 undergraduates who were in dating relationships (73.73% cisgender women).

resultsMultilevel modeling revealed gender differences. Among men, CDA victimization predicted next-day cannabis use (aOR = 7.34, p < .001), but negatively related to the number of drinks consumed the following day (B = -2.63, p < .001). Among women, CDA victimization did not relate to next-day cannabis or alcohol use. Regardless of gender, CDA victimization was unrelated to the odds of any drinking. DISCUSSION AND

conclusionsCollege men are more likely to use cannabis the day after experiencing CDA victimization relative to other days. Targeting CDA and related aftermath may benefit college-based substance use intervention. SCIENTIFIC SIGNIFICANCE: This is the first study to identify that cannabis use occurs subsequent to CDA victimization, which can inform college-based CDA and cannabis use prevention programming.
