1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

In distinction from the USA, worksite smoking cessation programs are not yet implemented and their importance is not yet discussed in West Germany. Data from a national survey show that a majority of employees in West Germany are regular or occasional smokers and that about 50% of them are not strongly opposed to joining a smoking cessation program. A review of worksite smoking cessation or reduction programs in the USA reveals necessary characteristics of the implementation and evaluation of such programs in West Germany.
