Culturally centering alcohol use assessments: insight from indigenous adults with lived and living experience.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 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
Objectives: There are high rates of both alcohol abstinence and hazardous drinking among American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) communities compared with non-Hispanic Whites. Few measures exist that examine alcohol use consequences within a relevant historical and cultural context for Indigenous populations, hindering the ability of communities, researchers, and practitioners to effectively address alcohol misuse. In the present study, we discuss a research collaboration to culturally re-center alcohol-use consequence measures among AI/AN adults. Methods: We convened a national and local Scientific Review Panel (SRP) with AI/AN research and clinical experts to reexamine the Drinker Inventory of Consequences (DrInC) and the companion measure, the Short Inventory of Problems (SIP; Results: The SRP focused their adaptations on re-centering culture, assessing risk and protective factors, and important missing item content elements. Ultimately, the SRP recommended removing 20 items from the DrInC and adding 12 items to the SIP and adding 3 sub-scales, with an emphasis on the addition of items that were strengths-based and removal of stigmatizing language. Interviews were then completed to further refine the measures. In total, three themes emerged from these data: (1) Direct Reflections on Original and Adapted Items; (2) Negative Alcohol Consequences Specific to AI/AN Communities; and (3) Recovery Supports. Conclusion: Findings underscored the need to emphasize culture, prevention, and recovery supports when addressing alcohol misuse with AI/AN adults. The SRP also identified areas to expand the culturally centered framing of these measures by removing stigmatizing language, focusing on systemic factors, and prioritizing strengths-based approaches. The subsequent culturally centered tools will be validated with 150 nationally recruited AI/AN adults.
