Linking criminal justice-involved individuals to HIV, Hepatitis C, and opioid use disorder prevention and treatment services upon release to the community: Progress, gaps, and future directions.
Article in The International journal on drug policy, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
Improving HIV and Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) management among people involved in the criminal justice (CJ) system who use drugs, in particular those with opioid use disorder (OUD), requires effective approaches to screening, linkage, and adherence to integrated prevention and treatment services across correctional and community agencies and providers. This manuscript reviews the literature to explore gaps in HIV, Hepatitis C, and OUD prevention, treatment, and delivery cascades of care for persons involved in the CJ system. Specifically, we compare two models of linkage to prevention and treatment services: Peer/Patient Navigation (PN) wherein the PN links CJ-involved individuals to community-based infectious disease (ID) and substance use prevention and treatment services, and Mobile Health Units (MHU) wherein individuals are linked to a MHU within their community that provides integrated ID and substance use prevention and treatment services. The most notable finding is a gap in the literature, with few to no comparisons of models linking individuals recently released from the CJ system to integrated HIV, Hepatitis C, and OUD prevention and treatment and other harm reduction services. Further, few published studies address the geographical distinctions that affect service implementation and their effects on these substance use, ID and harm reduction care cascades. This manuscript makes specific recommendations to fill this gap through a detailed evaluation of PN and MHU linkage models to co-located and integrated HIV, Hepatitis C, and OUD prevention and treatment services across different communities within the U.S.
