A non-randomized pilot study protocol of a novel social support intervention for individuals in early recovery from hazardous alcohol use.
Article in PloS one, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06022107 (Piloting a Novel Social Support Intervention for Addiction Recovery), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
introductionConnecting individuals to recovery support services such as recovery community centers and mutual help organizations can be crucial for sustaining recovery from addiction. However, there may be barriers to engagement with recovery support services on individual (e.g., limited motivation) and structural (e.g., limited information on recovery resources) levels. This pilot study will determine the feasibility and acceptability of a novel online social support intervention (Let's Do Addiction Recovery Together!, abbreviated as LDART) that uses pre-recorded videos created by members from several recovery support services to help individuals in early recovery from hazardous alcohol use sustain motivation during recovery and introduce them to freely available recovery support services in the community. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This will be a non-randomized mixed-method pilot study. We will recruit 30 adults who engaged in past-year hazardous alcohol use and have some desire to cut down or quit to use LDART every night for a month. A subset of these participants will be invited to participate in a semi-structured qualitative interview after completing the study. Primary outcomes will be feasibility parameters such as recruitment and retention rates, and acceptability measures such as frequency of intervention use. Secondary outcomes will include self-reported changes in alcohol use, engagement in recovery support services, and quality of life at one-month post-intervention relative to baseline. DISCUSSION: Results of this pilot study will inform a randomized controlled trial to examine efficacy of this intervention, with the goal of creating an accessible and scalable intervention that has direct benefits on individuals who want to cut down or quit problematic alcohol use.
