The 5A's vs 3A's plus proactive quitline referral in private practice dental offices: preliminary results.
Trial report in Tobacco control, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT00384254 (Tobacco Quitlines as an Adjunct to Dental Office Tobacco Intervention), which is not on this map. Cited by 34 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.

Abstract
aimsThe primary aim of our randomised control trial (RCT) was to evaluate the relative efficacy of two dental office based interventions compared to usual care. One intervention consisted of a combination of dental practitioner advice to quit and proactive telephone counselling (3A's), and the other arm consisted of a dental practitioner delivered intervention based on the 5A's of the Clinical Practice Guideline (5A's).
method2177 tobacco using patients were enrolled from 68 dental practices in Mississippi. We collected 3-month outcome data from 76% (n = 1652) of participants.
resultsSmokers in the two intervention conditions quit at a higher rate than those in usual care; chi2 (1, n = 1381) = 3.10, p<0.05. Although not significant, more patients in the 5A's condition quit than those in the 3A's. Of patients in the 3A's Condition, 50% reported being asked by their dentist or hygienists about fax referral to the quitline, and 35% were referred. Quitline counsellors contacted 143 (70%) referred participants.
conclusionThese results suggest that there are both advantages and disadvantages to the use of quitlines as an adjunct to brief counselling provided by dental practitioners. Patients receiving quitline counselling quit at higher rates than those who did not; however, only a small percentage of patients received counselling from the quitline. Therefore, it appears that dental professionals may be most effective in helping their patients to quit by regularly providing the 5A's plus proactively referring only those patients who are highly motivated to a quitline for more intensive counselling.
