Tobacco-cannabis co-use and risk of substance use problems among Black and Hispanic adolescent and young adult females in New York City.
Article in International journal of mental health and addiction, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Background: Tobacco-cannabis co-use is more common than exclusive cannabis use, and is linked to more severe tobacco and cannabis health consequences. We assessed trends and predictors of tobacco-cannabis co-use and their link to future substance use problems and severity among Black and Hispanic adolescent and young adult (AYA) females living in New York City. Methods: Secondary data were analyzed from a seven year (2013-2020) prospective open cohort study conducted at Mount Sinai Adolescent Health Center in New York City (n=1,281). Participants completed questionnaires every six months, and self-reported information on use of smoked tobacco, cannabis, and blunts/spliffs; sexual risk behaviors, depressive symptoms, and other substance use. Regression analyses examined initiation and frequency of past 30-day co-use, and risk of future substance use severity. Results: Age-adjusted prevalence of past 30-day cannabis use increased from 46.5% in 2013-2014 to 59.0% in 2019-2020, while past 30-day tobacco smoking declined from 22.1% to 6.1%. After accounting for blunt/spliff use, any use of tobacco increased from 31.6% in 2013-2014 to 39.6% in 2019-2020. Co-consumers were more likely to meet criteria for clinical depression (OR=1.34, 95%CI:1.12-1.61) and have same-sex (OR=1.35, 95%CI:1.03-1.76) and/or multiple male sex partners (OR=1.45, 95%CI:1.23-1.71). Those who used blunts/spliffs frequently or rarely had higher risk profiles for problematic substance use. Conclusions: Tobacco-cannabis co-use, particularly blunt use, appears to drive increasing prevalence of cannabis use, sustain overall rates of tobacco use, and predicts substance use problems among inner-city Black and Hispanic AYA females, independent of other factors.
