Making Sense: Treating Patients with Opioid Use Disorder through the Lens of Game Theory.
Article in Journal of community hospital internal medicine perspectives, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The opioid epidemic continues to influence the field of medicine, creating new challenges and obstacles to quality care. Patients with injection drug use are marginalized individuals who received poor quality of care and often discharged without safe recovery plan. Cooperation between physicians and patients allow the best outcomes for the patient, the physician, and society, however we often see patient-directed discharges and inadequate care. We believe that this result is due to an incentive model in the decision-making process that ultimately makes cooperation difficult. We use different game theory models (assurance model, prisoner's dilemma, centipede model, conflicting interest coordination) in this paper to describe common scenarios within a hospitalization when caring for patient with opioid use disorder, from admission through discharge. When physician and patient are driven away from cooperation, the outcome is the worst and most harmful for society. In today's worsening opioid crisis, game theory can help physician provide high quality care to a complex high-risk population.
