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

purposeModes of cannabis use, or modalities, have been linked to both concurrent and longitudinal outcomes as modes may influence individuals' subjective experiences. However, the existing literature relies predominantly on experimental studies, observational surveys, and daily diary methods. The present study aimed to address this gap by using intensive repeated assessment data [e.g., ecological momentary assessment (EMA)] to examine associations between cannabis modalities and momentary subjective drug effects.

resultsA sample of 215 young adults who recreationally used cannabis (56.7% female, Mean age = 21 years) reported on cannabis use including patterns (e.g., modalities) and subjective drug effects across 21 days of EMA. Bong use was associated with greater momentary 'good effects', 'liking', and 'willingness to take cannabis again' compared to moments when a bowl was used. Vaporizer use was associated with lower subjective intoxication. When edibles were used, 'willingness to take cannabis again' was lower.

conclusionsFindings suggest that specific modalities (e.g., bong, vaporizer, edible) are associated with distinct subjective drug effects (e.g., intoxication, 'good effects', 'liking', 'willingness to take cannabis again'), which have previously been identified as key factors related to sustained and hazardous cannabis use. This highlights the importance of considering cannabis modalities in relation to their impact on misuse-related effects as well as to inform harm reduction approaches and early intervention strategies.
