Opioid recovery initiation: Pilot test of a peer outreach and modified Recovery Management Checkup intervention for out-of-treatment opioid users.
Article in Journal of substance abuse treatment, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
The recent surge in opioid-related overdoses and related fatalities underscores the need for assertive mechanisms for linking individuals with opioid use disorders (OUD) to medication-assisted treatment (MAT). This pilot study investigated the feasibility of an intervention that used peer outreach workers to identify out-of-treatment individuals with OUD combined with a modified version of the Recovery Management Checkup to link individuals to methadone treatment. The study was conducted in high-risk communities in Chicago over 8weeks; peer outreach workers identified 88 active opioid/heroin users; 72 were screened as eligible, and 70 showed to the study intake/initial linkage meeting. Most participants were male (73%) and African American (94%), with an average age of 52.0 (sd=7.6). Nearly all (67/70, 96%) were admitted to methadone treatment; median time from initial linkage meeting to treatment admission was 2.6days. Most were still in treatment at 30 and 60days post-intake (69% and 70%, respectively). A high-risk sub-group was identified that had ever received naloxone for an opioid overdose; they had one third of the odds of being in treatment at 30days post-intake compared with others. The intervention model holds promise as an assertive method for identifying and engaging individuals with OUD into treatment.
