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

Background: During recent decades, it has become evident that cigarette smoking has led to an increase in cancer, risk of death, and economic problems or sanitation issues worldwide. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), as a third-wave behavioral therapy, has devoted significant attention to smoking cessation. However, this treatment has been utilized in different formats and protocols. Moreover, addressing its challenges and progress needs examination and integration. Accordingly, the primary aim of this study was to present a narrative review for summarizing and integrating the current data on the effectiveness of ACT on smoking cessation. This study also aimed to investigate the challenges and the future of this field. Methods: The publications from January 1, 2010 to October 9, 2021 were identified by searching MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, PsycINFO, and Web of Science electronic databases. The search was performed with the following keywords: "Acceptance AND Commitment Therapy" OR "Acceptance" AND "smoking" OR "tobacco" OR "cigarette" OR "smoker" OR "Nicotine". The inclusion criterion was studies with interventions aimed at reducing smoking cessation in smokers. Findings: A total of 17 articles were analyzed in this study. The results showed that this treatment has significant effectiveness in smoking cessation and psychiatric comorbidities. Moreover, the role of experiential avoidance in smoking cessation was discussed in detail. Conclusion: ACT is a suitable psychotherapy module for smoking cessation. However, it needs some upgrades regarding technology. To this end, smartphone applications and AVATAR therapy technologies were discussed with their advantages and solvable disadvantages.
