Adolescent with cannabis use disorder and other mental health disorders: does dual disorder worsen school impairment?
Article in Journal of cannabis research, 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
introductionDespite evidence of the impact on academic performance of cannabis use disorder (CUD) there is little information about what happens in those cases of dual diagnosis, when CUD occurs along with other mental health disorders (DD).
methodsParticipants in this study (N = 300) were recruited from patients seeking treatment for CUD at an adolescent addictive behaviors unit. A multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to evaluate the effects of DD on school impairment (listwise deletion strategy). The interaction between CUD and other mental health disorders was included, along with covariates such as age of onset, years elapsed from first use to problematic use, and sex.
resultsThe presence of co-occurring internalizing and/or externalizing disorders among adolescents with CUD was associated with higher odds of school impairment (OR = 3.73; 95% CI: 1.06-13.12; p = .04). In the adjusted model, psychiatric comorbidity was also associated with approximately twice the likelihood of repeating a grade or dropping out of school (OR = 2.05; 95% CI: 1.10-3.84; p = .03), whereas the CUD-only group, sex, age of initiation, and latency to regular cannabis use were not statistically significant predictors. These findings suggest that school impairment is particularly associated with the co-occurrence of CUD and other mental health disorders.
conclusionsDD in adolescents emerges as a risk factor for academic performance. It is crucial to develop early intervention policies and approaches that comprehensively address DD.
