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

objectivesGiven the changing cannabis policy and retail environment, this study examined profiles of young adults with differing cannabis cost-related behaviors and perceptions (e.g., products used, impact of cost) and their associations with use-related outcomes.

methodsUsing 2024 survey data among 1,359 US young adults reporting past-month cannabis use (M

resultsLCA identified 4 classes: 1) 'Price-insensitive, low-spend, low-level bud/edible use' (36.1 %); 2) 'Semi-price-sensitive, high-spend, high-level bud/oil/concentrate use' (31.9 %); 3) 'Semi-price-sensitive, moderate-spend, mid-level oil/other product use' (24.1 %); and 4) 'Price-sensitive, high-spend, mid-level mixed product use' (7.9 %). Compared to Class 1 (referent): Class 2 was older, more likely < bachelor's (vs. ≥ bachelor's) degree educated, cohabitating (vs. single/other), and parents, but less likely Asian (vs. White); Class 3 was more likely Black and < bachelor's degree educated, but less likely with other (vs. full-time) employment; and Class 4 was more likely Black and food insecure. In multivariable regression, relative to Class 1, other classes had higher use intentions and more problematic use.

conclusionsRegulatory and educational efforts must address young adults with higher risk indicators and potentially related disparities.
