Trial report in Drug and alcohol dependence, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03897530 (Flavored Tobacco Product Regulation), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
introductionThe Food and Drug Administration has recently released a final rule enacting a characterizing flavor ban in cigarettes and cigars. Similar efforts have been proposed for e-cigarettes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a potential menthol cigarette ban, a fruit and mint flavored e-cigarette ban, and the interaction of the two among current adults who smoke menthol cigarettes.
methodsThe Experimental Tobacco Marketplace was used to evaluate the within subject purchasing of participants who smoke menthol major name brand (n = 64) and Native manufactured (n = 37) cigarettes when fixed price alternatives and only: 1) menthol cigarettes and mint and fruit flavored e-cigarettes, 2) non-menthol cigarettes and mint and fruit flavored e-cigarettes, 3) menthol cigarettes and tobacco flavored e-cigarettes, and 4) non-menthol cigarettes and tobacco flavored e-cigarettes were available.
resultsParticipants who smoked major name brand and Native manufactured menthol cigarettes showed greater cigarette demand (Q CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: Demand for cigarettes is higher when preferred flavor is available. Substitutes for cigarettes among people who smoke menthol cigarettes are minimal and may indicate that removal of menthol from the landscape may not push people who smoke menthol cigarettes to products other than cigarettes.
