An algorithm for choosing among smoking cessation treatments.
Article in Journal of substance abuse treatment, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03670316 (Effectiveness of a Smoking Cessation Algorithm Integrated Into HIV Primary Care), which is not on this map. Cited by 17 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.
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.

Abstract
Currently, there are nine validated medications, four validated psychosocial strategies, and three validated ways to deliver psychosocial treatments for smoking cessation. This article presents an algorithm based on a literature review and the author's clinical experience. The algorithm integrates the recommendations of the major guidelines and meta-analyses and provides rationales for its treatment decisions. The algorithm suggests a brief assessment followed by use of one to two medications and counseling in most smokers. Because all treatments appear equally effective and have few adverse events, the algorithm suggests clinicians inform smokers of the pros and cons of the different treatments, and recommend use of one or more of each. If a smoker fails to quit, the algorithm suggests an assessment of why relapse occurred and then a more intense treatment, a new treatment, or both.
