A Widening Divide: Cigarette Smoking Trends Among People With Substance Use Disorder And Criminal Legal Involvement.
Article in Health affairs (Project Hope), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
People with substance use disorder (SUD) smoke cigarettes at a rate more than twice that of the general population. Policies and programs have focused on promoting smoking cessation among people with SUD, yet it is unclear whether interventions have adequately reached the subgroup involved in the criminal legal system, who have among the highest smoking rates. Drawing on repeated cross-sections of the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, we found that smoking rates declined by 9.4 percentage points overall among people with SUD from 2010 to 2019, but rates remained virtually unchanged among the subgroup with criminal legal involvement. In regression analyses focused on people with SUD, three-quarters of the excess smoking burden for those with criminal legal involvement at baseline (2010-13) was accounted for by controlling for sociodemographics, substance use type, health insurance, and recent SUD treatment. However, even after we controlled for these same factors, the disparity in smoking prevalence among people with SUD between those with and without criminal legal involvement remained constant over time. These findings underscore the need for smoking cessation interventions focused on the criminal legal system, including correctional facilities and SUD treatment programs that serve people in this population.
