The impact of medication-assisted treatment for opioid use disorder on congestive heart failure outcomes.

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
Congestive heart failure (CHF) and opioid use disorder (OUD) commonly coexist and are major contributors to high healthcare utilization in the United States. Medication assisted treatment (MAT; e.g., buprenorphine and methadone) reduces opioid-related mortality by about 50 %; yet little is known about how OUD treatment impacts CHF outcomes in patients with both CHF and OUD. We examined the impact of MAT (buprenorphine, methadone, and naltrexone) on CHF outcomes in patients diagnosed with OUD and CHF, and which MAT (buprenorphine or methadone) medication is associated with the fewest CHF outcomes. A retrospective cohort study of patients 18 years or older diagnosed with both CHF and OUD was conducted using Optum's de-identified Clinformatics® Data Mart Database. Multivariate logistic regression modeling was used to compared patients who were prescribed MAT to those who were not. The primary outcomes were CHF hospitalizations and CHF emergency department visits. No significant differences in the primary outcomes between the MAT and non-MAT cohorts were observed. In conclusion, the lack of association of MAT with negative CHF outcomes suggest that life-saving MAT can be safely used for OUD treatment in the CHF setting.
