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

introductionOral nicotine pouches have surged in popularity on social media, in part owing to promotions by influencers. This study examined how the presence or absence of a paid partnership disclosure in an influencer's oral nicotine pouch TikTok video impacted psychophysiological and self-report responses of young adults who use oral nicotine pouches. STUDY

designUsing a between-participant design, participants viewed 1 of 2, 2-minute TikTok simulations that either did or did not have a paid partnership disclosure in an influencer video promoting oral nicotine pouches during the fall of 2024. SETTING/

participantsThe study was conducted in a media psychophysiology research laboratory and included 96 young adults (aged 18-23 years) who had used oral nicotine pouches within the past 30 days.

interventionParticipants' heart rates were measured during the TikTok simulation, and they answered self-report questions about oral nicotine pouches before and after viewing the simulation.

main outcome measuresPrimary outcomes included self-reported craving, perceived harm reduction, behavioral intentions, and heart rate as a psychophysiological indicator of cognitive resource allocation.

resultsData were analyzed in the spring of 2025. Psychophysiological data indicated greater cognitive resource allocation among participants who viewed the video with the paid partnership disclosure than among those who viewed the video without the disclosure (p=0.03). Self-report measures revealed significant increases from baseline between message conditions, with craving, perceived harm reduction, and behavioral intentions to use oral nicotine pouches increasing more among participants who viewed the video with the disclosure than among those who viewed the video without the disclosure (all p<0.001).

conclusionsPaid partnership disclosures in an influencer-generated message promoting oral nicotine pouches facilitate attention to the message, heighten craving and intentions to use, and reduce perceived harm of oral nicotine pouches. These findings can be applied in counter-messaging efforts including testing if leveraging influencers to create user-generated content with paid partnership disclosures can effectively inform young adults about the potential risks of oral nicotine pouch use.
