In one paragraph

Review in Harvard review of psychiatry. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05777200 (Sociodemographic and Clinical Characteristics of Patients Admitted to the Addiction Management Unit of Assiut University Hospital), which is not on this map. Cited by 60 papers, 7 of them syntheses that pooled it.

1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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.

Abstract

LEARNING

objectivesAfter participating in this activity, learners should be better able to:• Assess the treatment gap for patients with substance use disorders• Evaluate treatments and models of implementation for substance use disorders ABSTRACT: Substance use disorders (SUDs) account for substantial global morbidity, mortality, and financial and social burden, yet the majority of those suffering with SUDs in both low- and middle-income (LMICs) and high-income countries (HICs) never receive SUD treatment. Evidence-based SUD treatments are available, but access to treatment is severely limited. Stigma and legal discrimination against persons with SUDs continue to hinder public understanding of SUDs as treatable health conditions, and to impede global health efforts to improve treatment access and to reduce SUD prevalence and costs. Implementing SUD treatment in LMICs and HICs requires developing workforce capacity for treatment delivery. Capacity building is optimized when clinical expertise is partnered with regional community stakeholders and government in the context of a unified strategy to expand SUD treatment services. Workforce expansion for SUD treatment delivery harnesses community stakeholders to participate actively as family and peer supports, and as trained lay health workers. Longitudinal supervision of the workforce and appropriate incentives for service are required components of a sustainable, community-based model for SUD treatment. Implementation would benefit from research investigating the most effective and culturally adaptable models that can be delivered in diverse settings.
