Daily patterns of substance use among young adults who vape nicotine and cannabis: Latent class analysis of smartphone-based daily diary data.
Article in Drug and alcohol dependence, 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
introductionUsing multiple tobacco and cannabis products is common among young adults and raises concerns about addiction and health risks. Few studies address daily use patterns of multiple products on the same day. We used daily diaries to identify patterns of substance use and associated factors among young adults who reported vaping nicotine and cannabis.
methodsWe collected smartphone-based daily diaries from 113 California young adults (mean age=23.8) who vaped nicotine or cannabis for 20 + days in the past month. For 30 consecutive days, participants reported their daily use of nicotine/tobacco, cannabis, alcohol, craving for nicotine and cannabis vaping, and mood. We used multilevel latent class analysis to identify daily substance use patterns and mixed-effects logistic regression to identify factors associated with these patterns, controlling for baseline covariates (e.g., demographics, nicotine/cannabis dependence).
resultsThree latent classes emerged: Class 1 - "Nicotine vaping days" (52.7 % of the assessments), Class 2 - "Nicotine and cannabis co-vaping days" (39.9 %), and Class 3 -"Combustible tobacco and cannabis use days" (7.4 %). Higher levels of feeling sad on a given day were associated with increased likelihood of that day belonging to Class 1 (adjusted OR = 1.11, 95%CI95 %CI = 1.01 - 1.23). Higher cravings for cannabis vaping on a given day were associated with increased likelihood of that day belonging to Class 2 (adjusted OR = 1.81, 95 % CI = 1.63 - 2.01).
conclusionInterventions should be tailored to varying daily substance use patterns among young adults who vape. Efforts targeting vaping cessation may also address combustible product use.
