Increasing Initiation of Medications for Opioid Use Disorder Through Recovery Coaches: The Role of Implementation Setting.
Article in Journal of addiction medicine. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesPrograms to increase linkage to medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD) through peer recovery coaches may hold promise in increasing MOUD initiation. However, the impact of linkage programs may vary based on contextual factors, such as the implementation setting. This study examines whether implementation setting is associated with MOUD initiation following participation in peer-based linkage programs.
methodsThe University of Kentucky and Voices of Hope Lexington, a recovery community organization, trained recovery coaches to implement a MOUD linkage program. Coaches were deployed in 9 criminal-legal organizations (ie, jails, specialty court, and pretrial services) and 20 community organizations in 4 rural and 4 urban counties. Coaches worked with participants (n = 754) to set person-centered goals, provided MOUD education, addressed MOUD initiation barriers, and assisted with scheduling appointments. A typology of implementation setting categorized participants by where they enrolled in the linkage program: (1) urban community organizations (reference group), (2) urban criminal-legal organizations, (3) rural community organizations, or (4) rural criminal-legal organizations. The odds of MOUD initiation were estimated using multivariate logistic regression.
resultsOf 754 participants, 23.1% (n = 174) reported initiating MOUD. Relative to urban community organizations, individuals enrolled in rural community organizations were more likely to initiate MOUD (odds ratio = 1.85, P = 0.04), whereas individuals enrolled in rural criminal-legal organizations were less likely to initiate MOUD (odds ratio = 0.34, P = 0.005).
conclusionsImplementation setting may impact the likelihood of MOUD initiation through peer-based linkage programs. Future research should examine how implementation strategies might overcome setting-specific barriers to MOUD initiation, particularly in rural criminal-legal settings.
