Smoking cessation interventions for pregnant women attending treatment for substance use disorders: A systematic review.
Synthesis in Addiction (Abingdon, England), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
BACKGROUND AND
aimsUp to 95% of pregnant women seeking treatment for alcohol and other drug (AOD) use smoke tobacco. Previous reviews indicate few effective smoking cessation treatments for this group. This updated review aimed to identify and measure the efficacy of smoking cessation interventions trialled among pregnant women in AOD treatment settings who smoke tobacco.
methodsA narrative synthesis was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses statement. Studies involving psychological, behavioural or pharmacological interventions used to treat tobacco use, including electronic nicotine delivery systems, for pregnant women of any age, who smoked tobacco and were seeking/receiving treatment, or in post-treatment recovery for AOD concerns, were reviewed. MEDLINE, PsycINFO, CINAHL, EMBASE and ProQuest databases, grey literature and reference lists were searched, and field experts were contacted for unpublished study data. The Effective Public Health Practice Project tool assessed study quality. The review was pre-registered with PROSPERO no. CRD42018108777.
resultsSeven interventions (two randomised controlled trials, two single-arm pilot studies, two program evaluations and one causal comparative study) treating 875 women were identified. All were United States (US)-based and targeted women with drug dependence, but not alcohol dependence. Three interventions used contingency management, five provided behavioural counselling, and one offered nicotine replacement therapy. All reported reductions in cigarette consumption; one contingency management-based study demonstrated higher abstinence rates compared with controls at treatment-end that were not maintained at follow-up. Four of six studies were rated as methodologically weak and one unpublished study was not rated.
conclusionsConclusions about the efficacy of smoking interventions for pregnant women with alcohol and other drug concerns who also smoke tobacco are hindered by the paucity of available data and poor methodological quality of included studies.
