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

objectiveThis study used ecological momentary assessment to investigate the association between unplanned drinking and alcohol-impaired driving (AID) cognitions and behavior among adults.

methodAdults (

resultsUnplanned drinking episodes were associated with lower perceived danger of AID, increased willingness to engage in AID, and higher odds of engaging in AID, compared to planned drinking episodes. Findings were held after controlling for alcohol consumption measured by breath alcohol concentration biosensors.

conclusionsFindings suggest that unplanned drinking intentions confer risk for AID-a behavior requiring significant preparation and planning to avoid. Findings highlight the need for future research investigating unplanned drinking's effect on other negative consequences requiring preparation and planning. Additionally, findings highlight the need for targeted interventions and policies to reduce unplanned drinking to prevent AID and improve public health outcomes among adults.
