Exploring the Interplay of Sleep and Nicotine Vaping in Adolescents: An Evidence-Based Narrative Review.
Review in Psychopharmacology bulletin, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Introduction: Although adolescent use of combustible cigarettes (CC) has decreased, the rise of nicotine electronic vaping products (EVPs) presents new public health concerns. Nicotine vaping devices, with appealing packaging and flavors, are now the most commonly used nicotine delivery method among adolescents. While the long-term effects remain unclear, short-term effects include tachycardia, coughing, and wheezing. This review explores the relationship between nicotine vaping and sleep disturbances in adolescents. Methods: A PubMed search (2006-2024) using keywords "nicotine sleep adolescents," "vaping sleep adolescents," and "e-cigarette sleep adolescents" identified 159 articles. Filters for "Humans," "English," and "Age-Birth-18 years" narrowed the list to 124. Abstracts were independently screened for cross-sectional studies describing sleep disturbances, yielding nine articles. Outcome measures included insufficient sleep (< 7-8 hours/night) and sleep latency, assessed through self-reported hours and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Results: Data from 106,628 adolescents (12-18 years; males = females) revealed e-cigarette (most common vaping device used) and dual users (e-cigs + CC) reported significantly more insufficient sleep on school nights than non-users. Dual users exhibited increased sleep latency, particularly in males. Two studies suggested chronic insufficient sleep might lead to initiation or increased use of vaping devices, highlighting a bidirectional relationship. Conclusions: Many survey studies indicate vaping nicotine is associated with sleep disturbances in adolescents. Other studies determined sleep disturbances were associated with an initiation or increase in vaping nicotine indicating a cause-and-effect conundrum. Further investigation through longitudinal studies are needed to determine factors such as the causal relationship, dose-response and product-specific effects.
