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
objectiveThe objective of this study was to assess the prevalence of electronic cigarette use (e-cigarette) and identify its associated factors among public high school students in Da Nang City, Vietnam.
methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted in 22 public high schools, involving 2504 students from grades 10-12. Students were selected using multistage cluster random sampling. Self-reported e-cigarette use was collected using the Global School-based Student Health Survey Questionnaire. A multivariable logistic regression model was used to examine predictors of e-cigarette use.
resultOf the 2504 students, 6.1% reported current e-cigarette use, with 95% confidence interval (CI): 5.2 to 7.1% (boys: 9.1%, 95% CI: 7.5-10.7; girls: 3.3%, 95% CI: 2.3-4.3). Peer and parental smoking was a key driver, with significant associations with e-cigarette use (Odd ratio, OR = 3.54, 95% CI: 2.34 - 5.38; 3.87, 95% CI: 2.66 - 5.63, respectively). In addition, being boy (OR = 2.74, 95% CI: 1.87 - 4.03), in the 11th-grade status (OR = 2.02, 95% CI: 1.31 - 3.12), having low academic achievement (OR = 2.89, 95% CI: 1.39 - 5.99); and currently smoking cigarette (OR = 7.68, 95% CI: 3.55 - 16.58) were also significantly associated with e-cigarette use.
conclusionE-cigarette use is of growing concern among high school students in Da Nang. Current cigarette smoking, particularly influenced by peers and family, is the primary factor driving e-cigarette use. Intervention programs should prioritize reducing cigarette smoking to effectively prevent e-cigarette use among high school students.
