Peer-support programs are a useful social support strategy for populations trying to quit smoking who are willing to maintain smoking abstinence. This study is a protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the effectiveness of peer support for smoking cessation.
This protocol will be conducted in accordance with the Cochrane Handbook of Systematic Reviews of Interventions 6.2. We will conduct a comprehensive search in the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, ovidEmbase, PsycINFO, the Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, ovidMEDLINE, Google Scholar, and Open Grey, as well as the Trials Register of Promoting Health Interventions in EPPI-Centre, ClinicalTrials.gov, the WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform, and reference lists of included papers. The review will include randomized controlled trials of peer support interventions aimed to stop smoking in any population. Two reviewers will independently screen and select relevant studies. Version 2 of the Cochrane tool that assesses risk of bias in randomized trials will be used to assess the risk of bias in the included studies. The primary outcomes will be defined as the tobacco abstinence rate and adverse events. If a quantitative synthesis is not appropriate, a synthesis without meta-analysis will be undertaken.
This review will provide the best available evidence regarding the effects of peer support interventions to quit smoking. The results from this study will help to inform healthcare providers on the optimal peer support intervention modalities such as intensity, delivery methods, type of support provider, and duration of the intervention.

同伴支持计划是一种针对有意愿保持戒烟状态的戒烟人群的有用的社会支持策略。本研究是一项系统评价和荟萃分析的方案，旨在评估同伴支持对戒烟的有效性。
本方案将按照 Cochrane 干预措施系统评价手册 6.2 进行。我们将在 Cochrane 对照试验中心注册库、ovidEmbase、PsycINFO、护理学及相关健康领域累积索引、ovidMEDLINE、Google Scholar 和 Open Grey 以及 EPPI-Centre 促进健康干预试验注册库、ClinicalTrials.gov、世界卫生组织国际临床试验注册平台中进行全面检索，并查阅纳入文献的参考文献列表。本综述将包括针对任何人群的旨在戒烟的同伴支持干预的随机对照试验。两名评审员将独立筛选和选择相关研究。将使用 Cochrane 工具版本 2 来评估纳入研究的偏倚风险，该工具用于评估随机试验的偏倚风险。主要结局将定义为烟草戒断率和不良事件。如果不适合进行定量综合，则将进行无荟萃分析的综合。
本综述将提供关于同伴支持干预戒烟效果的最佳现有证据。该研究的结果将有助于向医疗保健提供者提供有关最佳同伴支持干预模式的信息，例如强度、提供方法、支持提供者的类型和干预持续时间。
