Analysis of different populations accessing online overdose response training and harm reduction supplies (ADORES).
Article in Harm reduction journal, 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
backgroundAn online mail order naloxone and harm reduction supply program was created by an interdisciplinary team at the University of Rhode Island College of Pharmacy and hosted on the university website (UNIV). The program was subsequently funded by the Rhode Island Department of Health (DOH) and added to the DOH website. This study compares demographic characteristics of the two populations submitting requests through the program's distinct access points, UNIV and DOH, to those of populations at-risk for overdose.
methodsThis is a retrospective comparative analysis using voluntarily provided information from mail order request forms submitted through two websites from June 2020 through October 2023. The primary objective was to compare demographic characteristics of requesters through the two access points to those of individuals at-risk for experiencing or responding to an overdose. Descriptive statistics were used to characterize the two distinct populations. Chi-square tests were performed to determine if statistically significant differences in population demographics existed between access points. Odds ratios were estimated using a simple logistic regression model to assess the relationship between access point and demographic characteristic to determine if either access point had a greater likelihood of reaching individuals with at-risk demographics.
resultsA total of 5,783 (UNIV = 1662; DOH = 4121) mail order request forms were included in the analysis. Participants who completed requests through UNIV were more likely to be 44 years old or younger and/or reside in rural areas. Participants who submitted requests through DOH were more likely to reside in non-rural and/or low-income areas, and/or identify as gender minorities. Additionally, UNIV respondents were more likely to be first-time naloxone requesters while DOH respondents were more likely to have obtained and used naloxone before.
conclusionsResults establish that different access points can reach different at-risk population subsets and support the use of multiple access points and advertising strategies to expand the reach of online mail order harm reduction programs. STUDY REGISTRATION: The study was retrospectively approved by the University of Rhode Island Institutional Review Board (IRB reference #2124391-2).
