Initiating Long-acting Injectable Naltrexone: Procedure for a Second Attempt After a First Attempt Fails.
Article in Journal of addiction medicine. 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
BACKGROUND AND
objectiveMany patients are unable to initiate long-acting injectable naltrexone (XR-NTX) on a first attempt, due to the prerequisite abstinence and withdrawal from opioids.
methodsThirty patients who were unable to initiate XR-NTX were recruited to receive buprenorphine for 1 week, followed by a 3-week buprenorphine taper, and an ascending titration of oral naltrexone before XR-NTX injection.
resultsEight (27%) initiated XR-NTX, 7 (23%) transitioned to buprenorphine maintenance treatment and 15 (50%) were lost to follow up. CONCLUSION AND SCIENTIFIC SIGNIFICANCE: A second attempt at XR- NTX initiation using buprenorphine stabilization and cross taper may be a reasonable approach for some patients.
