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

The reduction and cessation of vaping for young people is a global health priority, however the operationalization of guidelines into school programs is challenging. The focus of this quality improvement project was to utilize the plan-do-study-act framework and Social Cognitive Theory to support vaping cessation in Australian secondary schools. Ten school nurses led a program across 12 schools and supported 86 young people to grow knowledge and skills to reduce vaping. At baseline, most young people had self-reported that they had vaped for over a year (n = 61; 70.9%) and were aware of associated harms. Immediately post-program, 34.1% (n = 29) intended to change behavior, and at 4-week follow-up, 61% (n = 22) reported behavior change. All school staff valued and supported the program, with key benefits of professional health education delivery by a known nurse and improved health literacy, and barriers of student absences and scheduling conflicts.
