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

Objective: Cigarette smoking differs within the Hispanic population, with adults from Puerto Rico and Cuba (PRC) reporting higher percentages than those from Mexico and Central or South America. Limited research examines if there are similar patterns for e-cigarette use among Hispanic youth. This study examined associations between home language, self-identified Hispanic origin, and e-cigarette use among Hispanic youth. Methods: The 2022-2023 National Youth Tobacco Survey included 13,724 Hispanic middle and high school students in the United States. Logistic regression, with multiple imputation for missing data, analyzed associations between home language, self-identified Hispanic origin, and their interaction with e-cigarette use, adjusting for demographics. Results: Among youth, 49.9 % were of Mexican origin, 9.9 % PRC origin, 31.5 % from Other Hispanic origins, and 8.7 % from Multiple origins. Conclusions: PRC-origin youth had higher e-cigarette use than Mexican-origin youth, regardless of home language. These patterns in e-cigarette youth among Hispanic youth are similar to cigarette use among Hispanic adults. Further research should explore factors driving higher use among PRC-origin youth.
