Social Networks and Smoking in Rural Women: Intervention Implications.
Article in American journal of health behavior, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
objectivesWe characterized the social network characteristics of women in Ohio Appalachia according to smoking status.
methodsWomen ≥18 years of age were recruited from 3 Ohio Appalachian counties to complete a cross-sectional survey. Sociodemographic and smoking-related information was collected by face-to-face interview. A description of women's time (ie, spends time with) and advice (ie, gets support and advice) social network ties were obtained. An egocentric social network analysis was completed, according to the woman's smoking status.
resultsOf the 408 women enrolled, 20.1% were current smokers. Time networks were larger (p < .001), more dense (p < .001), and more redundant (p < .001) than advice networks. Current smokers had a greater proportion of smoking ties in their networks compared to non-smokers (p < .001). Daily face-to-face contact with non-smoking ties was greater in time compared to advice networks (p < .001). Current smokers in advice networks tended to have less daily contact with non-smoking ties than non-smokers (p = .06).
conclusionsDifferences existed in characteristics of time versus advice egocentric networks. Smoking status was associated with these differences. Results will assist with future development of a network-based smoking cessation intervention.
