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
objectivesFor people with opioid use disorder (OUD), transitioning from pregnancy to postpartum and from incarceration to the community is a time of increased risk for opioid overdose. This prospective project evaluated the extent of Jenna's Project's success in preventing overdoses and improving recovery outcomes by coordinating postrelease care in incarcerated OUD perinatal patients.
methodsParticipants (N = 132) were pregnant or postpartum (1 year postdelivery) with OUD during incarceration and self-referred for postrelease services. From March 2020 to October 2021, participants could receive up to 6 months of postincarceration care coordination services (eg, regular communication, transportation, emergency housing, SUD treatment), medication to treat OUD (MOUD) and other treatment services. Outcomes included verified overdose (fatal), self-reported nonfatal overdose, reincarceration, active Medicaid, receipt of MOUD, presence of children living with participants, open Child Protective Services cases, and number of referrals for services.
resultsThere were 0 nonfatal and 0 fatal overdoses at both 1 and 6 months postrelease, and 3 of 132 (2%) returned to incarceration. Significantly fewer participants had Medicaid at release (36%) and at 6 months postrelease (60%) than before incarceration (87%) ( P < 0.001 for all 3 pairwise comparisons). At 6 months postrelease, significantly more participants reported MOUD receipt (51%) compared with before incarceration (39%) ( P < 0.001). There was no significant change in the number of open Child Protective Services cases. Referrals for childcare or parenting services were the most common referrals provided.
conclusionImmediate postrelease care coordination for pregnant and postpartum women with OUD was feasible and effective in preventing overdose, reincarceration, and promoting recovery outcomes.
