Transitions Between Electronic and Combustible Cigarettes: A Mixed Methods Analysis of Peer Interactions in an Online Community for Tobacco Cessation.
Article in Studies in health technology and informatics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The growing popularity of e-cigarettes is a public health concern. There is an emerging need to understand the pathways between electronic and combustible modes due to the specialized nature of risks associated with each transition. Online social media has become the most dominant knowledge space for these evolving behaviors, and as such, can provide unique opportunities for modeling switching patterns. In this paper, we describe the utility of online peer interactions using qualitative inquiry and network visualizations using 500 messages to characterize (a) transition pathways and (b) psychosocial attributes as individuals contemplate and act on such transitions. Our results indicate that the E2A pathway is the most prevalent in e-cigarette-related transitions, where most of the individuals are in the "active e-cig use" stage. Perceived benefits and barriers are the most commonly held health beliefs, while counterconditioning and stimulus control behavior change processes are frequently manifested. Such insights can help in the design of personalized pathway-specific behavior change interventions.
