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

introductionThe prevalence of cannabis use and food insecurity have increased in the U.S., yet how cannabis use and food insecurity interact, particularly among young parents, remains understudied. This study assessed associations between cannabis use and food insecurity among young adults and differences based on parental status.

methodsThe study analyzed 2 waves (W1-W2) of survey data from 2023 to 2024 among 3,437 U.S. young adults (ages 18-34 years; M

resultsAt W1, 46.6% of participants reported cannabis use. At W2, 39.5% reported cannabis use, 48.2% food insecurity, and 22.9% cannabis use and food insecurity. W1 cannabis use was associated with greater odds of W2 food insecurity (AOR=1.62, 95% CI=1.39, 1.88). W2 food insecurity was associated with greater odds of W2 cannabis use (AOR=1.44, 95% CI=1.24, 1.68), greater cannabis expenditures (AOR=1.44, 95% CI=1.17, 1.78), and greater impact of cannabis cost on use (AOR=1.92, 95% CI=1.57, 2.35). The associations between W2 food insecurity and W2 cannabis use were stronger among parents compared to adults without children.

conclusionsSociostructural, economic, and individual interventions are needed to mitigate food insecurity and address the dynamics between food insecurity and cannabis use that could perpetuate disparities related to food insecurity and cannabis use.
