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
What is already known about this topic?: Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) acupuncture represents a feasible, low-risk smoking cessation intervention, yet evidence supporting its integration into community-based programs in China remains limited. What is added by this report?: The intervention group demonstrated substantially higher self-reported sustained abstinence rates compared to the control group at each follow-up assessment (23.85% What are the implications for public health practice?: This study establishes a precedent for integrating comprehensive TCM approaches into existing community smoking cessation services. Our findings provide innovative perspectives and empirical evidence to advance the development of smoking cessation intervention models.
