Effects of in vivo NRT sampling on smoking abstinence and NRT adherence: A randomized clinical trial.
Trial report in Drug and alcohol dependence, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
backgroundNicotine replacement therapy (NRT) is an effective treatment but is associated with poor adherence during smoking cessation attempts. This study aimed to determine if In Vivo Sampling, an experiential intervention that includes sampling of NRT in-session, increases NRT adherence and smoking abstinence compared to standard smoking cessation behavioral counseling.
methodsEligible participants were under community corrections supervision and smoked five or more cigarettes per day for the past year. Participants were randomly assigned to receive either In Vivo Sampling or standard smoking cessation behavioral counseling. Both interventions involved four 30-minute sessions and received 12 weeks of combination NRT. Self-reported NRT adherence, quit attempts, and carbon monoxide (CO)-verified smoking cessation were measured at one, three-, and six-months post-intervention.
resultsFrom 2017-2022, 515 participants were enrolled and randomized. The In Vivo Sampling group had significantly greater mean adherence to patch and lozenge NRT regimens (71 % vs. 60 %, OR: 1.63, 95 % CI: 1.36-1.96, p<.001). The In Vivo group had a significantly higher likelihood of quit attempts across time (61 % vs. 53 %, OR: 1.4, 95 % CI: 1.05-1.87, p=.021). Groups did not significantly differ on the percent of participants who had quit smoking at 6 months post-intervention (17 % In Vivo Sampling vs. 13 % standard counseling, OR: 1.43, p=.24).
conclusionIn Vivo Sampling demonstrated better NRT adherence and quit attempts but similar cessation rates to standard behavioral counseling. The In Vivo Sampling intervention represents a novel approach that increased behaviors typically associated with successful cessation over standard behavioral counseling.
