Trial reportExperimental and clinical psychopharmacology2023
A double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, pilot clinical trial examining buspirone as an adjunctive medication during buprenorphine-assisted supervised opioid withdrawal.
Trial report in Experimental and clinical psychopharmacology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Successful management of opioid withdrawal improves long-term treatment outcomes and reduces opioid use-related morbidity and mortality. Mechanistically supported pharmacotherapeutic approaches are needed to effectively manage acute and protracted opioid withdrawal. Buspirone is a D2 antagonist and 5-HT1a agonist that may decrease opioid withdrawal. Individuals (
