Support for smoke-free policies in a pro-smoking culture: findings from the European survey on tobacco control attitudes and knowledge.
Article in International journal of public health, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectivesTo assess support for tobacco control policies between smokers and non-smokers, and the effects of nicotine dependence on smokers' policy support in a country with high smoking rates and pro-smoking norms.
methodsPopulation-based, cross-sectional telephone survey of a random sample of 700 Greek adults (mean age = 40.2, SD = 10.9) assessing smoking status and attitudes towards tobacco control policies.
resultsAlmost half of the respondents were current smokers, and smoking prevalence was significantly higher in males than females. Compared to non-smokers and former smokers, current smokers were less supportive of smoke-free public places and taxation policies. All groups appeared equally supportive for policies against sales of tobacco products to minors. Daily smokers with higher nicotine dependence were less supportive for smoke-free public places and taxation policies compared to smokers with lower dependence scores.
conclusionsSmoking status and nicotine dependence differentiate the level of support for smoke-free policies. However, both smokers and non-smokers seem to be supportive for policies aiming to prevent youth from smoking, even in a country with pro-smoking social norms and high smoking rates.
