Avatar-Led Digital Therapeutic for Aiding Smoking Cessation in Sexual and Gender Minority Young Adults

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1. 1This trial specifically focused on sexual and gender minority young adults — can you help me understand whether the EQQUAL digital program it studied would be relevant to my background and situation, or whether there are other smoking cessation resources better suited to me?
2. 2The trial measured things like satisfaction and usability rather than long-term health outcomes like cancer prevention — what does that tell us about how much we actually know about whether this program works, and should that affect how much weight I give it compared to other quitting options?
3. 3Since this trial is already completed, is the EQQUAL avatar-based program available for me to use now, or is it still being studied, and how would I even access it if my doctor thought it might help?
4. 4The trial tracked whether people reduced cigarettes per day and stayed nicotine-free for 7 days — do you think those short-term measures are enough to suggest a real benefit, or would you want to see longer follow-up data before recommending something like this over proven treatments like nicotine replacement therapy or prescription medication?
5. 5This was a digital, avatar-led program completed without participants being assigned to a comparison group — does that mean the results are harder to interpret, and is there a more traditional cessation treatment you'd suggest I consider alongside or instead of something like this?
