Trends in maternal opioid use disorder and neonatal abstinence syndrome in Maine, 2016-2022.
Article in Journal of perinatology : official journal of the California Perinatal Association, 2024. 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
objectiveTo estimate trends in maternal opioid use disorder (OUD) and neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) in Maine using the most recent data available. STUDY
designWe used hospital discharge data to estimate the annual prevalence of maternal OUD and NAS between 2016 and 2022. In addition, we used birth certificate-linked Medicaid data to estimate related trends among Medicaid enrollees.
resultFrom 2016 to 2022, the prevalence of maternal OUD decreased from 35.3 to 18.8 per 1000 deliveries and the prevalence of NAS decreased from 33.2 to 14.0 per 1000 newborns (linear trend p values <0.01). Decreasing trends were also found among Medicaid enrollees.
conclusionIn Maine between 2016 and 2022, there was a decrease in maternal OUD and NAS diagnoses recorded in administrative datasets. These findings should be interpreted with caution due to changes in how OUD and NAS diagnoses are recorded and COVID-related changes in healthcare utilization.
