Characterizing Opioid Use Disorder Encounters in the Midwest Region, USA.

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
introductionThe opioid epidemic has taken its toll on the Midwest, a census region of the USA. The Midwest includes two census divisions: East North Central and West North Central. This study aimed (1) to characterize patient encounters of opioid use disorder (OUD) in the Midwest using the Health Facts
methodsThis study was a sub-analysis of a retrospective analysis of the Health Facts
resultsA total of 13,129 (23.7%) encounters were in East North Central, and 42,271 (76.3%) in West North Central. Patient characteristics that were associated with the highest frequency of encounters were Caucasian, male, single, and other patient types. In addition, rural areas had a higher number of encounters than urban areas. Compared with East North Central, West North Central had a greater average age and a longer average length of stay (p < 0.001). West North Central had a significantly higher proportion of patient encounters associated with patients being male, African American, single, and facilities being in rural areas (p < 0.001).
conclusionCompared to East North Central, patient encounters of OUD were more frequent and the average length of stay was longer than in West North Central. A significantly higher proportion of patient encounters in West North Central were associated with patients being male, African American, and single, and facilities being in rural areas.
