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

Cigarette smoking is a critical issue in caring for patients of chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, there is no routine care program designed for combining both smoking cessation and CKD care. The process of our quality improvement (QI) collaboration used data under our routine payment-for-performance for pre-end-stage renal disease (P4P Pre-ESRD) in Taichung Veterans General hospital from 2020 to 2022. We share our experience with a QI project that integrates the Ottawa model for smoking cessation (OMSC) with the Pre-ESRD care program as part of routine CKD care. The electronic health information systems were improved to reduce workload of medical staff. The number was more for both qualified CKD educators and nephrologists for smoking cessation. The access and availability for smoking cessation were immediate and convenient for patients. Specifically, all the actions were performed by CKD educators, with nephrologists overseeing the process in routine care. By combining OMSC with the Pre-ESRD program, we were able to provide smokers with satisfactory access and availability to smoking cessation services within our healthcare facility. The smoker cases found were more in number (206 in 2020, 344 in 2021, and 421 in 2022). Before the integrated OSTC-Pre-ESRD program (in 2020), the proportion of smokers was 3.88%. After implementing the integrated program, smokers increased significantly on a yearly basis (9.69% in 2021 and 9.82% in 2022). Finally, case numbers of on-site smoking cessations increased significantly after implementing the integrated system (0 in 2020, 17 in 2021, and 20 in 2022). All CKD patients for smoking cessation were also more (8 in 2020, 46 in 2021, and 38 in 2022). After implementing the QI program, focusing on the integrated OMSC-Pre-ESRD program, we found more smokers undergoing smoking cessation. This QI program highlighted the importance of better access and availability for smoking cessation.
