Relationship between parental smoking and adolescent smoking: gender differences and mediation of resilience.
Article in BMC public health, 2025. 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
backgroundThough the relationship between parental smoking and adolescent smoking has been established, gender differences, and mediation of resilience in this relationship are poorly understood. This research aims to investigate the prevalence of adolescent smoking, and to understand how consequences may differ for boys and girls, as well as to explore what role resilience played in this relationship.
methodsThrough the school-based cross-sectional survey, a total of 65,898 adolescents were involved in this study, and information were collected by self-reported questionnaire. Participants' smoking status and their parental smoking status were collected by self-made questionnaire, and resilience was assessed by the 10-item Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC-10). The multivariate logistic regression was conducted to explore the relationship between parental smoking and adolescent smoking. After that, the path analysis was applied to explore the mediation of resilience in this relationship.
resultsOf all participants, the rate of self-report current smoking and biologically verified smoking was 1.4% and 2.0%, respectively. Both self-reported and biologically verified prevalence of smoking among boys were higher than that in girls. There were gender differences in the impact of parental smoking on adolescent smoking: mother smoking had a negative effect on adolescent smoking, and resilience could mitigate this negative effect. Father smoking had no association with girl smoking, while father smoking was positively associated with boy smoking, and resilience was mediated in this association.
conclusionsOur findings suggested smoking prevention in adolescents can be done differently for different genders. Besides, results indicated resilience was important in preventing adolescent smoking. Furthermore, parents quitting smoking can play an important role in preventing adolescent smoking to a certain extent.
