Preferences for Smoking Cessation Support from Family and Friends Among Adults with Serious Mental Illness.

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
Engaging natural supports may be a promising strategy to promote the use of evidence-based smoking cessation treatment for individuals with serious mental illness (SMI) who smoke. This qualitative study explored preferences for support for quitting from family and friends among individuals with SMI who participated in cessation treatment. Participants were 41 individuals with SMI enrolled in a Medicaid Demonstration Project of smoking cessation at community mental health centers. Open-ended questions asked during a social network interview explored participants' preferences for more support for quitting smoking from family and friends. The qualitative data was coded and common themes were identified across the dataset. Three primary preferences emerged for smoking cessation support from family members and friends: 1) more practical support for quitting (e.g., financial help with purchasing cessation medications); 2) more emotional support for quitting (e.g., encouraging progress toward quitting); and 3) changing their own smoking behaviors in the presence of participants (e.g., don't smoke around them or offer them cigarettes). Individuals with SMI who participated in smoking cessation treatment at community mental health centers indicated several ways that family members and friends could support their efforts to quit smoking. Understanding how people with SMI want support from family and friends to quit smoking will inform strategies to leverage these natural resources to promote the use of evidence-based smoking cessation treatment and support smoking abstinence for this population.
