Consensus-Based Treatment Approaches for Managing Concerning Behaviors in Patients on Long-term Opioid Therapy for Chronic Pain: Case-Based Applications.

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
Guidelines recommend careful monitoring of patients on long-term opioid therapy for chronic pain to assess for concerning medication-taking behaviors that may signal opioid misuse or the presence of a substance use disorder. However, specific management strategies to guide providers if concerning medication-taking behaviors emerge are lacking. Therefore, we recruited a Delphi panel-42 experts in chronic pain and opioid prescribing-to develop consensus-based treatment approaches to guide management of the 6 most common and concerning behaviors identified: missing prescriber appointments, taking opioids for symptoms other than pain, using more opioid medication than prescribed, asking for an increase in opioid dose, aggressive behavior, and alcohol and other substance use. The results of that process are published as a separate study. The purpose of the present study was to present clinical cases in which concerning medication-taking behaviors arise in the course of long-term opioid therapy and demonstrate for readers how the Delphi panel's consensus-based approaches could be applied.
