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.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

abstractScholarly journals and professional organizations in addiction medicine have recently discussed the importance of adopting nonstigmatizing and precise terminology. The present commentary expands that ongoing discussion to terms related to treatment processes and outcomes. Four implicit assumptions of stigmatizing and imprecise terms related to treatment processes and outcomes are overviewed, and research evidence against these assumptions is presented. The commentary ends with recommendations for the use of positive behavioral indicators of processes and outcomes and, more importantly, accompanying them with nonevaluative, objective descriptors of patients' behaviors.
