Identification of Sociodemographic, Clinical, and Genetic Factors to Aid Alaska Native and American Indian People to Successfully Quit Smoking.

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
introductionAlaska Native and American Indian (ANAI) people have a smoking prevalence of 23%. Nicotine metabolite ratio (NMR) and genetic testing may enable tailored selection of tobacco cessation medication. AIMS AND
methodsThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the relative contributions of NMR, cessation medication, demographics, and tobacco use history to cessation. Participants were recruited into an observational cohort study consisting of a baseline visit prior to their quit date and 6-week follow-up. Demographic and tobacco use surveys and blood, urine, and breath samples were collected at each visit. Electronic health records were queried for cessation medications. NMR was categorized into slow or normal nicotine metabolism phenotypes (<0.31 and ≥ 0.31, respectively). The main outcome was cessation at 6 weeks. Analyses consisted of descriptive statistics, medication and phenotype concordance, and estimates of relative risk (RR) of quitting.
resultsWe enrolled 151 ANAI adults who smoked cigarettes daily. Two-thirds had normal nicotine metabolism phenotype. Retrospective medication and phenotype concordance was 39%. The overall quit rate was 25%. No demographic factors or tobacco use history were associated with quit success. Varenicline and bupropion increased the likelihood of quitting (RR = 2.93 [1.42, 6.03] and RR = 2.52 [1.12, 5.64], respectively) compared to nicotine replacement therapy. Non-optimal medication and phenotype concordance decreased likelihood of quit success (RR = 0.44 [0.22, 0.91]) compared to optimal concordance.
conclusionsThis exploratory study found associations between quit success and tobacco cessation medication as well as medication and phenotype concordance. Additional research is needed to assess use of NMR for treatment selection among ANAI people. IMPLICATIONS: These results broadly support additional community-engaged research to improve medication and phenotype concordance in tribal health settings. Such future research on implementing meditcation and phenotype concordance holds promise to improve expectations, quit success, and health outcomes amongst individuals attempting to quit smoking.
