1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Stimulant use among unstably housed individuals is associated with increased risks of psychiatric co-morbidity, violence, HIV transmission, and overdose. Due to a lack of highly effective treatments, evidence-based policies targeting the prevention of stimulant use disorder are of critical importance. However, little empirical evidence exists on risks associated with initiating or returning to stimulant use among at-risk populations. In a longitudinal cohort of unstably housed women in San Francisco (2016-2019), self-reported data on stimulant use, housing status, and mental health were collected monthly for up to 6 months, and factors associated with initiating stimulants after a period of non-use were identified through logistic regression. Among 245 participants, 42 (17.1%) started using cocaine and 46 (18.8%) started using methamphetamine. In analyses adjusting for demographics and socio-structural exposures over the preceding month, experiencing street homelessness was associated with initiating cocaine use (AOR: 2.10; 95% CI: 1.04, 4.25) and sheltered homelessness with initiating methamphetamine use (AOR: 2.57; 95% CI: 1.37, 4.79). Other factors-including race, income, unmet subsistence needs, mental health, and treatment adherence-did not reach levels of significance, suggesting the paramount importance of policies directed toward improving access to permanent supportive housing to prevent stimulant use among unstably housed women.
