[Effectiveness of non-pharmacological primary care methods for giving up tobacco dependency].
Trial report in Atencion primaria, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
objectiveTo determine the effectiveness of a systematic and intensive programme of tobacco counselling, as against brief anti-tobacco counselling.
designControlled and randomised clinical trial.
settingPrimary care medical and nursing clinics at an urban Health Centre in Getafe.
participantsSmokers who request health care at the medical clinics for any reason during the recruitment period, who satisfy the inclusion criteria and who want to take part in the study. The inclusion criteria are: 18 years old or more, people who have smoked daily during the previous month any amount of cigarettes, and high motivation (score over 7 on the Richmond test).
interventionThe 110 patients recruited by each doctor will be included, depending on the clinic they come from, in the control group (brief counselling) or the intervention group (intensive counselling). For the patients in the intervention group, monitoring visits will be programmed for 6 months after giving up. Both groups will be called by phone after a year to see if they are still smoking. MAIN MEASUREMENTS: Abstinence at 12 months. SECONDARY MEASUREMENTS: a) Recorded at the start: personal details, medical history and smoking history; b) recorded at the consultations: abstinence, date of first giving up and symptoms of withdrawal syndrome. DISCUSSION: The study will define the role of nursing professionals in taking patients off tobacco and will help define the effectiveness of non-medical methods to achieve this.
