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

The training of professionals who work in the treatment of substance use disorders is a fundamental aspect for the dissemination of evidence-based practices that ensure the quality of the treatment delivered to patients. Colombo Plan has developed a training model that allows effective, rapid, and scalable dissemination. However, this model does not have an empirical evaluation of its results to date. This project seeks to evaluate the dissemination model through a cluster-randomized clinical trial with a parallel superiority design, in which 27 treatment centers will be randomly assigned to training + action plan and technical advice, training only, or control without training, action plan or advice. The results of this study will inform public policy regarding substance use treatment at the national level and will help improve efforts by Colombo Plan at dissemination of evidence-based practices.
