Using prescribing and toxicology data to determine non-medical prescription drug overdose.
Article in Addictive behaviors reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundOverdose deaths have increased dramatically in the United States and are often attributed to prescription opioids. This study presents a framework for "overdose typologies", including non-medical prescription drug use, to more accurately describe drug use patterns.
methodsThis study examined linked prescription drug monitoring program (PDMP) and toxicology data (2016-2018) from accidental overdose deaths from a large metropolitan coroner's office in the Midwest (Indianapolis, Indiana).
resultsIn total, 1,112 accidental overdose deaths occurred and over two-thirds (68.0%; n = 756) were coded as an illicit drug user with no prescription opioid present in the toxicology. The most infrequent categories were prescription opioid users 5.5% (n = 61).
conclusionLinked PDMP and toxicology reports are useful in identifying drug use patterns that contribute to mortality.
