Smartphone-Based Smoking Cessation Intervention (OKquit) for Oklahoma Tobacco Helpline Users: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial.
Article in JMIR research protocols, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05539209 (OKquit -- Testing a Novel Smartphone Application for Smoking Cessation With the Oklahoma Helpline), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.

Abstract
backgroundTobacco quitlines provide effective resources (eg, nicotine replacement therapy, smoking cessation counseling, and text and web-based support) for those who want to quit smoking in the United States. However, quitlines reach approximately only 1%-3% of people who smoke each year. Novel, smartphone-based, and low-burden interventions that offer 24/7 access to smoking cessation resources that are tailored to current readiness to quit may increase appeal, reach, and effectiveness of smoking cessation interventions.
objectiveThis study will examine the efficacy of OKquit, a low-burden smartphone-based app for smoking cessation.
methodsApproximately 500 people who smoke cigarettes and access the Oklahoma Tobacco Helpline (OTH) will be randomized to receive standard OTH care (SC) or SC plus the novel OKquit smartphone app for smoking cessation (OKquit). All participants will use a smartphone app to complete study surveys (ie, baseline, 27 weekly surveys, brief daily check-ins, and 27-week follow-up). Upon completion of daily check-ins and weekly surveys, participants will receive either trivia type messages (SC) or messages that are tailored to current readiness to quit smoking and currently experienced lapse triggers (OKquit). In addition, those assigned to receive the OKquit app will have access to on-demand smoking cessation content (eg, quit tips, smoking cessation medication tips). It is hypothesized that participants assigned to OKquit will be more likely to achieve biochemically verified 7-day point prevalence abstinence than those assigned to SC at 27 weeks post enrollment. In addition, participants who use more OTH resources (eg, more cessation coaching sessions completed) or more OKquit resources (eg, access more quit tips) will have greater biochemically verified smoking cessation rates.
resultsData collection began in September 2022 and final follow-ups are expected to be completed by May 2025.
conclusionsData from this randomized controlled trial will determine whether the OKquit smartphone app combined with OTH care will increase smoking cessation rates over standard OTH care alone. If successful, OKquit could provide tailored intervention content at a fraction of the cost of traditional interventions. Furthermore, this type of low-burden intervention may offer a way to reach underserved populations of adults who smoke and want to quit.
