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

backgroundTwo factors that may influence young adults' cannabis use include having cannabis-using parents (CUP) and becoming parents themselves. These factors may differentially impact certain subgroups that are more likely to use cannabis (e.g., males, those with mental health conditions or living in states with legal nonmedical cannabis). This study examined intergenerational transmission of cannabis use across US young adult subgroups.

methodsWe analyzed 2023 survey data among 4031 young adults (

resultsHaving CUP (aOR = 2.90, 95% CI = 2.42, 3.47) and children (aOR = 1.37, 95% CI = 1.12, 1.67) were associated with cannabis use; however, a significant interaction indicated that having children was associated with use only among those without CUP. Living in legalized states and more ACEs were also related to cannabis use only in those without CUP. For participants with children (but not those without), having association between being male and use was stronger in those with (vs without) children. Other correlates included being older, sexual minority, Hispanic, Black, unmarried, and diagnosed with depression or ADHD.

conclusionGiven intergenerational influences on cannabis use and related disparities, interventions targeting parental use and related communication with children are needed.
