Alcohol Use Prevalence Among Chinese People Aged 15 Years and Above - China, 2024.
Article in China CDC weekly, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
What is already known about this topic?: In 2018, past-month and past-year alcohol use prevalence among Chinese adults aged 18+ years was 28.3% and 39.8%, respectively. What is added by this report?: In 2024, alcohol use prevalence among Chinese individuals aged 15+ years was 20.3% (past-month) and 27.6% (past-year), with higher rates observed among males and young to middle-aged adults. Notably, over 40% of current drinkers engaged in heavy episodic drinking (HED). What are the implications for public health practice?: Gender-specific intervention strategies targeting males and young to middle-aged adults are needed. The high prevalence of HED among current drinkers warrants particular attention in prevention efforts.
