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

The ongoing disparity in smoking prevalence across levels of socioeconomic status (SES) is a significant concern in the tobacco control field, and surveillance of cessation-related activity is key to understanding progress. Historically, lower SES smokers have had much lower quit ratios but this measure can be insensitive to recent quit-related behavior. It is therefore important to examine recent quit-related behavior to assess progress toward addressing this disparity, especially in states with tobacco control programs that focus on this priority population. We compared recent quit attempts and successes among non-Native lower SES Alaska smokers to those of higher SES using data from the 2012-2013 Alaska Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS). We assessed quit ratios, one-year and five-year quit rates, and six-month abstinence between the two groups. Cessation-related measures restricted to those who smoked in the previous one year did not significantly vary by SES. However, five year quit rates were significantly lower for persons of lower SES vs. higher SES (14% vs. 32% respectively,
