Summary Smoking contributes to health inequalities for people with severe mental illness (SMI). Although smoking cessation interventions are effective in the short term, there are few long-term trial-based estimates of abstinence. The SCIMITAR trials programme includes the largest trial to date of a smoking cessation intervention for people with SMI, but this was underpowered to detect anticipated long-term quit rates. By pooling pilot and full-trial data we found that quit rates were maintained at 12 months (OR = 1.67, 95% CI 1.02–2.73, P = 0.04). Policymakers can now be confident that bespoke smoking cessation interventions produce successful short- and long-term quitting.

Clinically Significant

A short-term trial has been performed under double-blind conditions in 50 adult patients with rheumatoid arthritis to compare diclofenac sodium (Voltaren) with both indomethacin and placebo for efficacy and tolerability. The duration of the trial was two weeks and was a between-patient comparison of 25 mg t.i.d. diclofenac sodium, 25 mg t.i.d. indomethacin or placebo using a double-dummy technique. Forty-eight patients completed the trial. In the majority of parameters examined, diclofenac sodium was superior to placebo and indomethacin in therapeutic effect. One patient was withdrawn from the trial because of intolerance to indomethacin and one other because of severe joint pain under indomethacin therapy. Neither active compound caused clinically significant changes in blood picture or urine analysis.

Audio Track

Creative dubbing and subtitling are presented in this article as didactic resources to improve integrated foreign language (FL) skills (specifically oral and written production). The increasing attention that the application of audiovisual translation (AVT) to FL learning has been receiving in the last two decades calls for further exploration into the potential benefits of modern AVT modes, such as funsubbing and fundubbing, understood as the creative translation of an audiovisual text, be it into subtitles or through the production of a new audio track. After considering the educational power of creative AVT and providing the corresponding theoretical justification, the article will present a methodological proposal on how to use these AVT modes in online environments. Finally, preliminary data derived from a short-term trial will be analysed and discussed.
