Association between home smoking and e-cigarette use restrictions and concurrent use behaviors among dual users of cigarettes and e-cigarettes.
Article in Tobacco induced diseases, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionLimited data exist on how home smoking and e-cigarette use restrictions influence patterns of cigarette and e-cigarette use among individuals who use both products. This study examined the association between home restrictions and the use of cigarettes and e-cigarettes among dual users of these two products.
methodsWe conducted a secondary analysis of data from the Adult Consumers of Tobacco Study (ACTS), an online, nationwide survey administered during 2020-2021. A sub-sample of 250 dual users of cigarettes and e-cigarettes was included in this analysis. Outcome variables were concurrent use behaviors, categorized as predominant smokers (daily smoking, e-cigarette use some days), equivalent users (either daily or some days use of both products), and predominant e-cigarette users (daily e-cigarette use, smoking some days), as well as e-cigarette use frequency (daily vs some days). Primary explanatory variables were home smoking and e-cigarette use restrictions (both categorized as complete, partial, or no restrictions). Multivariable logistic regression was used to examine associations between restrictions and concurrent use behaviors.
resultsNearly half (46.8%) of dual users reported having complete smoking restrictions in their homes, complete e-cigarette use restrictions (12.8%), and complete restrictions on both (11.2%). Dual users reported having complete home smoking restrictions (vs no restrictions) were more than two times more likely to be predominant e-cigarette users versus equivalent users or predominant smokers (AOR=2.60; 95% CI: 1.30-5.30), after controlling for home e-cigarette use restrictions and other covariates. Neither partial smoking restrictions nor partial e-cigarette use restrictions were associated with concurrent use behaviors.
conclusionsSmall proportions of dual users reported having complete smoking and e-cigarette use restrictions adopted in their homes, suggesting a need for promoting the adoption of such restrictions. Moreover, how and why home smoking and e-cigarette use restrictions differentially impact use behaviors warrant additional investigation.
