The effectivity of pictorial health warning to motivate smoking cessation in rural area: A study from Losari village, Indonesia.
Article in Journal of education and health promotion, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
introductionSmoking is a significant health problem among Indonesian adolescents and adults. The Indonesian government had issued several policies to alleviate this problem, including placement of pictorial health warning (PHW) on cigarette package. There had been several evaluation studies regarding the effectivity of PHW in urban areas but none in rural areas. This study aims to evaluate the effectivity of PHW in motivating smoking cessation in a rural area in Indonesia. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis was a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted in August 2017 in Losari village, Indonesia. Respondents of this study were villagers aged 18-60 years who were active smokers and purchased cigarette with PHW on the package. The research instruments for this study were questionnaire and printout pictures of each PHW approved by the Indonesian government.
resultsThere were 94 respondents recruited in this study. Among them, only 26 (27.7%) stated that PHW motivated them to stop smoking. From the five figures of PHW, a picture of lung cancer was the most effective PHW to motivate smoking cessation. Eighty-one of 94 respondents affirm that there are other factors besides PHW that might motivate them to stop smoking. Most of them agreed that an increase in cigarette price will force them to stop smoking.
conclusionsCurrent PHW used on cigarette package might be ineffective in motivating smoking cessation at Losari village. Further study with larger samples needs to be done to confirm this finding.
