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
backgroundParent-child conversations are very important in influencing adolescent/youth behaviours. Objective of this study was to assess association between parent-child conversations on dangers of drug use and cannabis use among secondary school students in Barbados. MATERIALS AND
methodData from the Barbados National School Survey (NSS) 2013 were analysed. Data were collected from a nationally representative sample of high school students drawn from 2
resultsParent-child conversations on dangers of drug use were significantly associated with past year cannabis use both before and after adjusting for covariates (crude odds ratio [COR] = 1.20, 95%CI: 1.04-1.38; adjusted odds ratio [AOR] adjusted odds ratio = 1.35, 95%CI: 1.15-1.58) but with students' past month cannabis use only in the unadjusted logit model. Being 15-16 years, male, enrolled in 4
conclusionSignificant positive association between parent-child conversations on the dangers of drug use with cannabis use is counter-intuitive and suggests that it is not just conversations but the type, content, and quality of conversations that matter in reducing students' inclination to use cannabis.
