Patterns of tobacco product use among US adults who use nicotine pouches and the association between nicotine pouch use and tobacco product use cessation.
Article in Tobacco control, 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
introductionNicotine pouch sales have substantially increased in the US. We examined the patterns of dually using nicotine pouches with other tobacco products, and whether nicotine pouch use was associated with tobacco product use cessation.
methodsA nationally representative sample of US adults (≥21 years) participated in an online survey in 2024 and provided information about their tobacco use behaviours in 2023 and 2024, along with demographics. This analysis was restricted to those who reported using any tobacco products in 2023 (n=1460). Data were weighted to be nationally representative. Predictive marginal probability differences (PMPDs) were used to examine the association between nicotine pouch use in 2023 and tobacco product use cessation in 2024.
resultsIn 2023, 12.0% of US adults who used tobacco products reported currently using nicotine pouches with another tobacco product. Among those who used nicotine pouches dually with at least one other tobacco product in 2023, none switched to exclusive nicotine pouch use in 2024 and 47.1% continued dual-use, 10.1% stopped using all tobacco products and 42.8% stopped using nicotine pouches in 2024. US adults who dual-used nicotine pouches with other tobacco products in 2023 had lower probabilities than those who did not dual-use to quit tobacco product use in 2024 (10.1% vs 23.7%; PMPD=-15.2%, 95% CI -20.8% to -9.6%).
conclusionsAmong US adults who dually used nicotine pouches with other tobacco products, none completely switched to exclusive nicotine pouch use. Nicotine pouch use was also not associated with increased probabilities of quitting tobacco product use.
