Effect of population based tobacco cessation treatment in India.
Article in Bioinformation, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Tobacco use remains a leading preventable cause of morbidity and mortality globally. The state of Jharkhand faces challenges because multiple forms of tobacco are in widespread use and limited resources are available for tobacco control. There is paucity of information related to the effectiveness of community-based tobacco cessation intervention and oral cancer screening program in Jharkhand therefore there is need for the present study. This quasi-experimental study in Ranchi district, Jharkhand, evaluated the effectiveness of an integrated, population-based tobacco cessation intervention implemented in Ayushman Aarogya Mandirs. The intervention comprised pharmacotherapy, behavioural counselling, and capacity building of community health workers. After one year, 657 of 4429 participants achieved cessation, representing a quit rate of 15.03% indicating the effectiveness of involving community health workers at grass root level. Findings demonstrate that combination therapy is more effective than behaviour counselling alone. Thus, we show the value of integrated cessation strategies in public health interventions, particularly in settings with a high burden of tobacco use.
