[Potential Savings in Treatment Costs of COPD through Smoking Cessation: Modeling for DMP COPD in Germany - Scientific Action Group on Tobacco Cessation (WAT) e. V.]
Article in Pneumologie (Stuttgart, Germany), 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
Based on real-life data for the stage distribution of COPD patients (GOLD) and the actual stage-related treatment costs in a large nationwide cohort study (COSYCONET) 1, the influence of the reduced smoking rate on treatment costs was determined for the scenario of a reduction in the smoking rate of 26 % in this patient group by 10 percentage points to 16 %. The assumption was made that with a reduced smoking rate, lower stages (I/II) will be more strongly represented, while higher and more cost-intensive stages (III/IV) will be proportionally reduced. The intervention to achieve tobacco abstinence was calculated for the rough model calculations with the typical costs of a guideline-compliant treatment by a behavioral therapy group cessation program and the parallel use of medication support 2 3. The result showed a potential reduction of case costs by 10.5 %, not including reduction in costs associated with treatment of comorbidities.
