Crossed Pathways: Tobacco-Cannabis Co-Use and Motivation to Quit in Young Adults in France.

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
introductionAmong young adults, intertwined tobacco and cannabis use is a major concern, being linked to poorer cessation outcomes than exclusive use. However, little is known about the shared and simultaneous determinants of motivation to quit both substances, and how the use of one influences readiness to quit the other. We aimed to examine these relationships, focusing particularly on the role of low socioeconomic status.
methodsIn a cross-sectional survey of French young adults (18-30 years) who co-use tobacco and cannabis, we modelled pathways to readiness to quit both substances using generalised structural equation modelling (GSEM). Factors associated with four or more lifetime quit attempts for tobacco and cannabis were also assessed using separate binary logistic regressions.
resultsAmong 357 participants (54.9% male), GSEM analysis revealed that low socioeconomic status was positively associated with frequency of use (β = 0.12, 95% confidence interval [0.04; 0.19] for tobacco; 0.09 [0.02; 0.17] for cannabis) and directly linked to greater readiness to quit both substances (β = 0.14 [0.04; 0.24] for tobacco; 0.13 [0.03; 0.23] for cannabis). Further regression analyses suggested that financial strain was the primary driver of these two latter associations with readiness to quit. For both substances, ≥ 4 lifetime quit attempts were associated with material deprivation (adjusted odds ratio 1.39 [1.22; 1.58] for tobacco; 1.24 [1.10; 1.40] for cannabis). DISCUSSION AND
conclusionsIn young adults who co-use tobacco and cannabis, financial strain emerged as a common determinant of motivation to quit, supporting the potential utility of monetary incentives in dual cessation. Further research, including qualitative studies, is needed to clarify cross-substance effects.
