The introduction of a novel formulation of buprenorphine into organized health systems.

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: Effective medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD) are underutilized. This exploratory study used real-world data to analyze US distribution patterns of buprenorphine extended-release (BUP-XR) within organized health systems (OHS), including the Veterans Health Administration (VHA), Indian Health Service (IHS), criminal justice system (CJS), and integrated delivery networks (IDNs). Methods: National BUP-XR distribution data within each OHS were available from WNS Global Services and were evaluated from July 2019 through July 2020. BUP-XR distribution data by OHS subtype (VHA, IHS, CJS, IDN) and state were aggregated and reported. Results: The total distribution of BUP-XR increased from 6,721 units in the second half of 2019 (H2'19) to 12,925 in the first half of 2020 (H1'20). OHS distribution increased from H2'19 to H1'20 in every subtype but was primarily driven by IDN distribution growth. IDNs accounted for 73% of total units in H2'19 and continued to grow in H1'20. In H1'20, IDNs accounted for 78%, VHA for 12%, CJS for 6%, and IHS for 4%. IDN distribution for BUP-XR increased from 4,911 to 10,100 units, showing the highest growth rate of 106% within all OHS subtypes. The states with the highest total BUP-XR distribution over the 12-month period were Massachusetts (4,534), Pennsylvania (3,773), and California (1,866). Conclusions: Overall distribution of BUP-XR, as a treatment option for OUD, is increasing; however, access to MOUD varies greatly across OHS subtypes and geography. Identifying and overcoming barriers to appropriate MOUD use is critical in addressing the opioid crisis.
