1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: Loneliness is associated with greater cannabis use cross-sectionally, yet much remains unknown about temporal, contextual associations of loneliness with cannabis use among high-risk populations like emerging adults. This momentary assessment study a) examined affective and socio-cognitive patterns of loneliness and cannabis use by social context (with particular attention to solitary use) and b) examined bidirectional associations of loneliness with solitary cannabis use across 15 days. Methods: Momentary assessments were collected from 59 emerging adults who used cannabis alone at least twice weekly ( Results: Participants reported frequent, often more-than-daily solitary cannabis use, as well as frequent social use. Same-moment affective loneliness (OR = 1.02, Conclusions: Solitary cannabis use occurs frequently, alongside frequent social use. Solitary use co-occurs alongside acute affective loneliness, though it does not seem either to exacerbate prior or precipitate future loneliness. Solitary use may serve as an initial form of social withdrawal given negative associations with subsequent negative social experiences. Loneliness may be a salient target for future cannabis use interventions.
