Long-term outcomes from a self-help smoking cessation randomized controlled trial.
Trial report in Psychology of addictive behaviors : journal of the Society of Psychologists in Addictive Behaviors, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 2 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.
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
There is a need for effective smoking cessation interventions that can be disseminated easily in health care and other settings. We previously reported that an extended self-help intervention comprising intensive repeated mailings over 18 months improved abstinence rates through 6 months beyond the end of the intervention when compared to both a reduced version of the self-help materials and a traditional self-help booklet. This report extends the follow-up for an additional 6 months (30-months postbaseline) to examine long-term maintenance of the intervention effect. We hypothesized that the previously observed "dose-response" effect of treatment intensity would be maintained. Participants were randomized to Traditional Self-Help (TSH,
