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
BackgroundThis study compared prevalence of youth substance use by gender and type of chronic health condition (CHC); estimated gender-stratified odds of substance use across CHCs; and, contrasted effect sizes across CHCs and genders.MethodsData come from 13,580 youth 12 to 17 years in the 2019 Canadian Health Survey on Children and Youth (48.7% girls). CHC was categorized as none (38.4%), physical only (39.8%), mental only (2.7%), neurodevelopmental only (6.7%), and multiple CHCs (MCHC; 12.4%). Multiple CHCs was defined as having ≥1 physical condition and ≥1 mental or neurodevelopmental condition. Youth self-reported alcohol, tobacco, e-cigarette, and cannabis use and gender identity (boy/girl; sparse data prevented inclusion of gender-diverse).ResultsOverall, 29.4% of youth used ≥1 substance. Girls were more likely to be occasional or regular consumers of alcohol (26.4% vs. 24.3%;
