A Systematic Review Evaluating Disparities in State-Run Quitline Utilization and Effectiveness in the U.S.
Review in AJPM focus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
Context: Cigarette smoking is a public health problem in the U.S. and is marked by pervasive sociodemographic disparities. State-run quitlines may offer greater access to cessation services that could in turn help to reduce smoking disparities. The aim of this review was to synthesize the body of literature regarding sociodemographic disparities in the utilization and effectiveness of state-run quitlines. Evidence acquisition: The PRISMA guidelines were followed in conducting this review. Included articles were published between January 1, 1992 and May 28, 2019 and sourced from PubMed and Web of Science. Studies that evaluated state-run quitline utilization or effectiveness (cessation) by sex, race/ethnicity, sexual or gender identity, or SES (income, education, insurance) were included. Evidence synthesis: Our search yielded 2,091 unique articles, 17 of which met the criteria for inclusion. This review found that quitline utilization was higher among Black and Asian/Pacific Islander individuals than among White individuals and among people with lower income and lower education than among people with higher income and higher education. Quitline use was associated with less smoking cessation among females than among males, among American Indian/Alaskan Native individuals than among individuals from all other races and ethnicities, and among individuals of lower than among those of higher income and education. Conclusions: This review found that although communities disproportionately affected by smoking utilize quitlines more commonly than their White and more affluent peers, disparities in cessation persist for American Indian/Alaskan Native and individuals from lower SES groups who use quitlines.
