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
Introduction: Cannabis use is linked to the risk of developing a Cannabis Use Disorder (CUD), which can often be chronic. Early identification of problematic cannabis use is crucial to lower the risk of CUD and associated adverse effects. However, the factor structure of the widely used Cannabis Use Disorder Identification Test (CUDIT) remains ambiguous. Furthermore, the impact of age and gender on CUD assessed with CUDIT is unknown. Exploring cannabis use motives has been proposed to better understand susceptibility to CUD. This study aims to clarify the CUDIT's factor structure, its links to cannabis use motives, and the influence of age and gender on CUD. Materials and Methods: We analyzed data from 3454 people who use cannabis (20.5% women; mean age = 30.31 years), collected from a Swiss online survey. Participants were categorized into four groups: younger men, younger women, older men, older women. Principal Component Analysis and Confirmatory Factor Analysis tested the factor structure of the revised CUDIT version (CUDIT-R). Structural Equation Modeling explored whether the influence of use motives on the CUDIT-R factors differs between demographic groups. Results: The results suggest that the CUDIT-R scale is best represented by two factors: Use Intensity (Cronbach's
