Why do we tolerate the activities of the gambling industry?
Article in Future healthcare journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
This article explains how gambling policy in the UK perpetuates exceptionalism by, among other things, promoting a way of understanding the drivers of gambling harm that is highly favourable to the interests of the industry and its political allies. It argues that this exceptionalism should come to an end, that completely transformative ways of thinking about this industry are possible, and considers what that would mean for gambling legislation and research. This is achieved by taking the reader on a reflective journey that involves stepping back and critiquing the taken for granted by posing a set of thought-provoking rhetorical questions. In order to support the case against exceptionalism, the article makes illuminating comparisons between gambling and other industries.
