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

introductionCigarette smoking is a risk factor for the induction and severity of the course of Crohn's disease (CD). Hospital admission may be required for treatment of the disease but is generally not available solely for smoking cessation. Outpatient group therapy is readily available, however long-term quit rates are limited. Residential treatment for smoking cessation may offer a more intense contact between patient and therapist, and may result in higher abstinence rates in a sensitive group of patients. The objective of this pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility of implementing a residential program with hospital admission, exclusively for smoking cessation for patients suffering from CD.

methodsTwelve eligible smokers suffering from CD were recruited for a 9-day inpatient smoking cessation treatment. Treatment consisted of single and group behavioral therapy together with supportive measures such as exercise therapy, relaxation techniques or nutritional counselling. Nicotine replacement therapy or prescription medication was offered according to the Fagerström test for nicotine dependence (FTND) score and treatment guidelines. Quit rates were assessed by CO-testing during hospital treatment and by follow-up calls 6 months after discharge.

resultsAll recruited participants arrived on time for treatment and collectively stopped smoking on the 2nd day after admission. All participants completed the therapy process without relapse and left the hospital smoke-free (100% quit rate on discharge, CO monitored). Self-reported abstinence rates after 6 months were 72.7% for continuous abstinence and 81.8% for 7-day point prevalence abstinence.

conclusionsResidential treatment exclusively for smoking cessation is feasible and efficient and may be a valuable treatment option for patients suffering from CD.
