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

backgroundTreatment-seeking people with opioid use disorder (OUD) who are capable of pregnancy need accurate information about the potential impact of medication to treat OUD (MOUD) on fertility to make informed choices about treatment that are consistent with their reproductive wishes. There is a dearth of research on fertility associated with MOUD receipt in birthing people with OUD.

objectiveTo estimate the association between treatment with MOUD and odds of conception among birthing people using national administrative claims.

designRetrospective case-crossover study using multi-state US administrative data (2006-2016). Dates of conception were estimated from delivery dates and served as "case" days for which MOUD exposures were compared to those on all other ("control") days of insurance enrollment.

participantsTreatment-seeking people with OUD with a delivery during the observation period. MAIN MEASURES: Odds ratios for conception from within-person fixed effects models were modeled as a function of exposure to MOUD (buprenorphine, methadone, extended-release depot naltrexone, or oral naltrexone) using conditional logistic regression. KEY

resultsA total of 21,928 births among 19,133 people with OUD were identified. In the sample, 5873 people received buprenorphine, 1825 methadone, 486 extended-release naltrexone, and 714 oral naltrexone. Participants could receive more than one type of MOUD. Mean age was 28.2 years (SD = 2.2; range = 16-45), with 76.2% having Medicaid. vs. commercial insurance. Compared to no MOUD, periods of methadone (aOR = 0.55 [95% CI = 0.48-0.63]) or buprenorphine receipt (aOR = 0.84 [0.77-0.91]) were associated with fewer conceptions. Treatment periods with extended-release depot naltrexone compared to no medication were associated with higher odds of conception (aOR = 1.75 [1.22-2.50]) and there was no significant difference in conception with oral naltrexone (aOR = 1.02 [0.67-1.54]).

conclusionsThe association between MOUD and odds of conception among birthing people varied by type of MOUD, with extended-release naltrexone associated with higher odds of conceiving compared to no treatment. Clinical studies are urgently needed to investigate these findings further.
