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

In the United States (US), the policy landscape surrounding marijuana is complex, multijurisdictional, and often messy, if not contradictory-particularly for tribal communities. Currently, tribes may choose to criminalize or legalize marijuana but may be located within a state or adjacent to a city that has opposing policies. With patterns of substance use that are notably different from the US population as a whole, including higher rates of marijuana use and dependence among Native American youth, tribal communities have important policy decisions to make that will directly impact public health. This paper reviews the history and policy background related to marijuana in the United States, associated health concerns for American Indian and Alaska Native communities, and considerations for tribal communities seeking how to best move forward. A community-led public health response that is culturally grounded can more effectively promote Indigenous health and sovereignty worldwide.
