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
A proportion of methadone maintenance therapy (MMT) clients in China shifted their substance use habit from opiate to psychoactive substances. The objective of this study was to examine the pattern and associated factors of psychoactive substance use among MMT clients. The study was conducted among 2,448 clients from 68 MMT clinics of China. The type and frequency of psychoactive substance use were self-reported. About 38.1% (N=933) of the participants reported psychoactive substance use in lifetime, and 6.5% (N=158) in the previous 30 days. The most commonly used psychoactive substances were sedative/hypnotic/antidiarrheal agent and amphetamine. Psychoactive substance use in the past 30 days was correlated with younger age, recent heroin use, having psychoactive substance using friend(s), and depressive symptoms. The finding suggested that urinalysis of psychoactive substances should be routinely administered in the MMT clinics. Young clients, concurrent heroin users, and clients with depressive symptoms deserve more screening and intervention efforts.
