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

Government of New Brunswick implemented One-at-a-Time (OAAT) therapy, a single-session approach to care, within Addiction and Mental Health (A&MH) services. We conducted interviews to understand determinants of implementation from program champions. Champions of the OAAT therapy implementation (N = 19; Child/Youth n = 8, Adult n = 11) working within A&MH services and school districts were recruited through the provincial implementation team. Transcripts were synthesized using thematic analysis. Determinants were organized as facilitators and barriers in accordance with the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR). Thematic analysis resulted in 18 themes and 5 recommendations. Facilitators within the inner setting included: (1) need for change and perceived benefits of OAAT therapy; (2) compatibility of OAAT therapy with previous practice and service processes; and (3) support received from champions and colleagues. Insufficient resources (e.g., staff and physical infrastructure), and a culture that favored long-term therapy were barriers. Navigating age of consent, and implementation around COVID-19 were barriers within the outer setting. Facilitators within the implementation process domain included: (1) interconnected teams across sites, regions and the province; (2) collaborative implementation planning; (3) flexibility to tailor implementation at sites; and (4) mentorship provided by champions. Insufficient standardization of the implementation and limited representation among affected parties (e.g., community partners) were barriers within the implementation process. This study elucidated determinants that influenced implementation of a new service delivery within an Eastern Canadian provincial health care system. Findings can serve as a heuristic for organizations looking to enact similar implementation initiatives.
