Treating Non-fentanyl-derived Synthetic Opioid Overdose with a Traditional Opioid Reversal Agent.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
As the opioid crisis in the United States continues to grow, non-fentanyl-derived synthetic opioids (NSOs) are growing in both availability and popularity. NSO use comes with considerable risk including a high potential for both abuse and overdose. In this editorial, we review the consequences of overdose with the NSOs U-47700 and butyrfentanyl (BF) and the potential for the use of naloxone as a treatment for such instances. Naloxone administration was found to be successful in reversing opioid effects and re-establishing independent breathing in a patient taking U-47700 or BF. With a high rate of success in treating opioid overdose and a low chance of negatively affecting healthy non-dependent persons, naloxone is an ideal medication in these situations. We recommend the use of naloxone in cases of NSO opioid overdose and advocate for the increased availability of naloxone products to improve overdose outcomes nationwide.
