Trial reportDrug and alcohol dependence2019
Trajectory classes of opioid use among individuals in a randomized controlled trial comparing extended-release naltrexone and buprenorphine-naloxone.
Trial report in Drug and alcohol dependence, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
objectivesTo advance our understanding of medication treatments for opioid use disorders (OUDs), identification of distinct subgroups and factors associated with differential treatment response is critical. We examined trajectories of opioid use for patients with OUD who were randomized to (but not in all cases inducted onto) buprenorphine-naloxone (BUP-NX) or extended-release naltrexone (XR-NTX), and identified characteristics associated with each trajectory.
methodsGrowth mixture models (GMMs) were run to identify distinct trajectories of days of opioid use among a subsample of 535 individuals with OUD who participated in a 24-week randomized controlled trial (RCT; 2014-2016) of BUP-NX (n = 281) or XR-NTX (n = 254).
resultsFour distinct opioid use trajectory classes were identified for BUP-NX (near abstinent/no use (59%); low use (13.2%); low use, increasing over time (15%); and moderate use, increasing over time (12.8%)). Three distinct opioid use trajectory classes were found for XR-NTX (near abstinent/no use (59.1%); low use (14.6%); and moderate use, increasing over time (26.4%)). Across both BUP-NX and XR-NTX, the near abstinent/no use class had the highest number of medical management visits. Within BUP-NX, the low use class had a greater proportion of individuals with a previous successful treatment history compared with other classes. Within XR-NTX, the moderate use, increasing over time class had the highest proportion of Hispanic participants compared with other classes.
conclusionsFindings highlight the significant heterogeneity of opioid use during a RCT of BUP-NX and XR-NTX and factors associated with opioid use patterns including medical management visits and history of treatment success.
