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

Objectives: Canada is the only country that currently uses cigarette pack inserts to communicate health messages to smokers, including tips to quit. Messages about strategies for quitting smoking are also central to the US Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) Every Try Counts (ETC) campaign. This study assessed US smokers' responses to Canadian and ETC-based messages formatted for pack inserts. Methods: US adult smokers (N = 524) were recruited from an online consumer panel and rated 8 insert messages: 4 based on Canadian inserts and 4 based on ETC. Participants randomly viewed each message accompanied by an image of either a person or a symbolic representation of the topic. Participants rated the perceived effectiveness (PE) of each message. Paired t-tests were used to assess mean differences in PE across topics, image types, and quit intentions. Results: ETC messages were consistently rated as more effective than Canadian messages regardless of quit intentions. Image types did not significantly influence PE. Conclusions: Messages from ETC are perceived as more effective than messages used in Canada. The FDA has the authority to communicate with smokers through inserts and should consider adopting inserts to promote smoking cessation.
