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

Smoking is associated with one of five deaths in the United States. Multimodality tobacco treatment increases rates of successful cessation by at least 20%. The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has put a halt to many inpatient and outpatient medical visits that have been deemed nonessential, including tobacco treatment. The transition to telehealth has been wrought with challenges. Although data on the association between coronavirus disease 2019 and tobacco products are mixed, the overall health consequences of tobacco point towards increased risk of morbidity and death that is associated with the virus. This leaves smoking as one of the few readily modifiable risk factors in an environment understandably not set up to prioritize cessation. A military health facility on Fort Eustis in Virginia runs a successful tobacco treatment program and adapted it to pandemic times. This article describes the process and lessons learned from this initiative. The model is applicable and scalable to government and civilian health centers as health care adapts to a new normal.
