Demonstration of an app-delivered digital therapeutic program for methamphetamine use disorder.
Article in Frontiers in psychiatry, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
This study assessed the feasibility and utility of a digital, all-virtual program designed for treatment of methamphetamine use disorder (MUD). Forty-nine adults with moderate- to severe-level MUD (per DSM-5 criteria) commenced the 8-week intervention. All aspects of the program were delivered via smartphone-based app. Intervention components included counseling (cognitive behavioral therapy in group and individual sessions), app-based therapeutic tasks, remote biological drug testing, medical oversight by psychiatrists/nurse practitioners, and contingency management procedures (including rewards for methamphetamine-free saliva drug tests, accomplishing tasks, and engaging in assigned activities). Of the 49 participants who commenced treatment, 27 participants (55%) completed the program. Repeated-measures mixed-model analyses show that participants were more likely to test negative for meth use from week 1 to week 8 (OR = 1.57, 95% CI [1.28, 1.97];
