A randomized, controlled pilot study of warm handoff versus fax referral for hospital-initiated smoking cessation among people living with HIV/AIDS.
Trial report in Addictive behaviors, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01305928 (Increasing Post-Discharged Follow-Up Among Hospitalized Smokers), which is not on this map. Cited by 13 papers, 4 of them syntheses 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.

Abstract
introductionThe prevalence of smoking among people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) remains higher than the general population. Life expectancy among PLWHA has increased over the past decade, however, PLWHA who smoke will die younger than their non-smoking peers. The primary aim of this pilot study was to examine the effects of warm handoff versus fax referral to the quitline for smoking cessation among hospitalized smokers living with HIV/AIDS.
methods25 smokers with a diagnosis of HIV/AIDS hospitalized at a Midwestern academic medical center in 2012-2013 (19 male; mean age=47.7; 48% African-American) were identified, approached, and randomized to one of two treatment arms. At the bedside for patients in warm handoff, staff telephoned the quitline for on-the-spot enrollment and counseling. Participants randomized to fax were fax-referred to the quitline on the day of discharge. The quitline provided continued outpatient counseling to participants in both conditions. The main outcome was verified tobacco abstinence at 6-months post randomization.
resultsEnrollment and participation in quitline counseling was high among both warm handoff (100%) and fax-referred (71.4%) PLWHA participants. Nearly all completed follow up for outcome data collection at 6months. Verified abstinent rates were 45.5% in warm handoff versus 14.3% in fax referral at 6months (not significant).
conclusionsHospitalized smokers living with HIV/AIDS were highly engaged in quitline services. Warm handoff seems a promising intervention for hospitalized PLWHA that requires further exploration. Clinical Trials Registration NCT01305928.
