Investigating Secondary Alcohol Outcomes in a Contingency Management Intervention among American Indian and Alaska Native Adults.
Trial report 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 3 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
objectiveThe aim of the study is to investigate clinically meaningful, secondary outcomes in a randomized trial of a culturally adapted contingency management (CM) intervention for alcohol use in 3 diverse American Indian and Alaska Native communities.
methodsThree American Indian and Alaska Native communities located in the Northern Plains, Alaska, and the Inland Northwest were partnering sites. A total of 158 individuals were randomized to either a 12-week CM intervention or a noncontingent (NC) control group. The CM group received reinforcers for providing alcohol-negative ethyl glucuronide (EtG < 150 ng/mL) urine samples, while the NC group received reinforcers unconditionally. Outcomes included EtG as a continuous measure (range, 0-2,000 ng/mL), EtG > 499 ng/mL (a measure of higher levels of recent alcohol use), longest duration of abstinence, and time-to-first alcohol-positive EtG during the trial. Generalized estimating equations along with Cox proportional hazard and negative binomial regressions were used.
resultsParticipants randomized to the CM group had lower mean EtG levels (-241.9 ng/mL; 95% confidence interval [CI], -379.0 to -104.8 ng/mL) and 45.7% lower odds (95% CI, 0.31 to 0.95) of providing an EtG sample indicating higher levels of alcohol use during the intervention. Longest duration of abstinence was 43% longer for the CM group than the NC group (95% CI, 1.0 to 1.9). Risk of time-to-first drink during treatment did not differ significantly.
conclusionsThese secondary outcome analyses provide evidence that CM is associated with reductions in alcohol use and longer durations of abstinence (as assessed by EtG), both clinically meaningful endpoints and analyses that differ from the primary study outcome.
