Abstract
The results presented in this issue of Nicotine & Tobacco Research represent promising advances in the fields of tobacco control and health services research. The research partnerships formed between academic researchers and managed care organizations are a testament to the potential and commitment of both groups to bringing "practice into research" in an effort to improve health and health care. The findings also confirm that no single strategy or systems change will ensure that all tobacco users receive evidence-based care, just as no one-size-fits-all approach exists for other health risk behaviors. The findings from this Robert Wood Johnson Foundation initiative reinforce the need for multifaceted approaches to improve health care delivery and the need to build the evidence base by involving diverse practice sites in high-quality, rigorous systems change research.
