Differential Association of Exposure to advertising channels with ever
Article in Preventive medicine reports, 2026. 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
Objective: To examine how exposure to advertising channels is associated with e-cigarette use among youth in the United States. Methods: This study included 161,700 middle and high school students aged 9-18 years from the 2014-2022 National Youth Tobacco Survey data. Multivariate logistic regressions estimated adjusted odds ratios (aORs) and 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) for the association between exposure to advertising channels and ever e-cigarette use. Annual percent change (APC) for ever e-cigarette use and exposure to each advertising channel were analyzed using Joinpoint regression. Data for 2014-2018 and 2019-2022 were analyzed separately due to the change in survey format and weighting procedure. Results: Ever e-cigarette use prevalence increased (APC = + 2.78: 95 % CI -13.65, 21.38) between 2014 and 2018, then declined (APC = -18.20 %: 95 % CI -27.11, 8.36) between 2019 and 2022. Exposure to retail (2014-2018 aOR = 1.36: 95 % CI 1.29, 1.43; 2019-2022 aOR = 1.46: 95 % CI 1.38, 1.54) and internet advertising (2014-2018 aOR = 1.43: 95 % CI 1.35, 1.51; 2019-2022 aOR = 1.19: 95 % CI 1.13, 1.25) were associated with higher odds of ever e-cigarette use. Conclusions: Exposure to retail and internet marketing increased the likelihood of ever-use of e-cigarettes among youth in the US. Additional regulations for point-of-sale and internet advertisements should be implemented.
