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

aimsCigarette smoking is a preventable risk factor for various diseases such as cancer, ischemic stroke, cardiac stroke, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Smoking cessation is of great importance not only for individual smokers but also for social health. Regarding current cessation therapies, the effectiveness of nicotine replacement is limited, and the cost of varenicline medication is considerable. Thus, a method for screening smokers who are responsive to cessation therapy based on the therapeutic effectiveness is required. Peripheral biomarkers reflecting smoking dependence status are necessary to establish a method for achieving effective cessation therapy.

methodsMethylation status of smokers' blood DNA was evaluated focusing on SHATI/NAT8L, an addiction-related gene. Eight CpG sites in SHATI/NAT8L were quantified by pyrosequencing.

resultsThere was no difference in the methylation status of this gene between smokers (n = 129) and non-smokers (n = 129) at all CpG sites. No correlations between the methylation status of SHATI/NAT8L and indicators of smoking dependence were found.

conclusionsAlthough the present study found no significance in the DNA methylation of SHATI/NAT8L among smokers, the exploration of predictable peripheral biomarkers for the effectiveness of smoking cessation therapy is required.
