Social impacts on adult use of tobacco: findings from the International Tobacco Control Project India, Wave 1 Survey.
Article in WHO South-East Asia journal of public health, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
backgroundSocial impacts on tobacco use have been reported but not well quantified. This study investigated how strongly the use of smoked and smokeless tobacco may be influenced by other users who are close to the respondents.
methodsThe International Tobacco Control Project (TCP), India, used stratified multistage cluster sampling to survey individuals aged ≥15 years in four areas of India about their tobacco use and that of their close associates. The present study used logistic regression to calculate odds ratios (ORs) for tobacco use for each type of close associate.
resultsAmong the 9780 respondents, tobacco use was significantly associated with their close associates' (father's, mother's, friends', spouse's) tobacco use in the same form. After adjusting for confounding variables, women smokers were nine times more likely to have a mother who ever smoked (OR: 9.0; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 3.3-24.7) and men smokers five times more likely (OR: 5.4; 95% CI: 2.1-14.1) than non-smokers. Men smokers were seven times more likely to have close friends who smoked (OR: 7.2; 95% CI: 5.6-9.3). Users of smokeless tobacco (SLT) were five times more likely to have friends who used SLT (OR: 5.3; 95% CI: 4.4-6.3 [men]; OR: 5.0; 95% CI: 4.3-5.9 [women]) and four times more likely to have a spouse who used SLT (OR: 4.1; 95% CI: 3.0-5.8 [men]; OR: 4.3; 95% CI: 3.6-5.3 [women]), than non-users. The ORs for the association of the individuals' tobacco use, whether smoked or smokeless, increased with the number of close friends using it in the same form.
conclusionThe influence of family members and friends on tobacco use needs to be appropriately addressed in tobacco-control interventions.
