The treatment of smoking by US physicians during ambulatory visits: 1994 2003.
Trial report in American journal of public health, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01156610 (Tobacco Treatment Outreach to Reduce Disparities for Primary Care Populations), which is not on this map. Cited by 62 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
objectivesWe sought to determine whether US physicians' practice patterns in treating tobacco use at ambulatory visits improved over the past decade with the appearance of national clinical practice guidelines, new smoking cessation medications, and public reporting of physician performance in counseling smokers.
methodsWe compared data from the National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey, an annual survey of a random sample of office visits to US physicians, between 1994-1996 and 2001-2003.
resultsPhysicians identified patients' smoking status at 68% of visits in 2001-2003 versus 65% in 1994-1996 (adjusted odds ratio [AOR]=1.16; 95% confidence interval [CI]=1.04, 1.30). Physicians counseled about smoking at 20% of smokers' visits in 2001-2003 versus 22% in 1994-1996 (AOR=0.84; 95% CI=0.71, 0.99). In both time periods, smoking cessation medication use was low (<2% of smokers' visits) and visits with counseling for smoking were longer than those without such counseling (P<.005).
conclusionsIn the past decade, there has been a small increase in physicians' rates of patients' smoking status identification and a small decrease in rates of counseling smokers. This lack of progress may reflect barriers in the US health care environment, including limited physician time to provide counseling.
