Disparities in Tobacco use and cravings among sexual and gender minority adolescents in the United States.
Article in Preventive medicine reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: Despite well-documented disparities in tobacco use between sexual and gender minority (SGM) populations and their non-SGM counterparts, limited research has focused on tobacco cravings within these groups. This study examines tobacco use and tobacco cravings among SGM adolescents who are past 30-day tobacco product users in the United States. Methods: Data were derived from the 2023 National Youth Tobacco Survey of high school students. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were conducted to examine the association between various SGM identities and tobacco use and cravings. Results: Tobacco cravings were reported by 25.66 % of gay or lesbian, 34.63 % of bisexual, pansexual, queer, or asexual, and 19.09 % of other sexual minority adolescent tobacco users. Among gender minority users, 40.45 % of nonbinary, genderfluid, or genderqueer individuals and 20.34 % of other gender identities reported cravings. Compared to heterosexual users, the odds of cravings were higher among bisexual, pansexual, queer, or asexual (aOR = 4.35, 95 % CI = 2.12-8.94), gay or lesbian (aOR = 3.51, 95 % CI = 1.03-11.93), and other sexual identities (aOR = 2.79, 95 % CI = 1.16-6.71). Nonbinary, genderfluid, or genderqueer users had higher odds of cravings compared to cisgender boys or men (aOR = 3.64, 95 % CI = 1.63-8.13). Similarly, SGM adolescents had higher odds of current tobacco use than their non-SGM peers. Conclusions: These findings highlight the significant disparities in tobacco cravings and use among SGM adolescents compared to their heterosexual counterparts. Programs targeting tobacco use and cravings among SGM youth will be beneficial.
