Noninvasive Brain Stimulation for Opioid Use Disorder: An Update of the Literature.
Article in Current behavioral neuroscience reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Purpose of review: Although medications for opioid use disorder (OUD) are effective, relapse remains common. Noninvasive brain stimulation (NIBS) has emerged as a potential adjunctive treatment. We review publications since 2020 that tested NIBS interventions in humans and assessed clinically relevant outcomes. Recent findings: We identified a total of 19 studies of NIBS for treatment of craving; acute detoxification, withdrawal, and early abstinence; relapse prevention; cognitive dysfunction associated with OUD; mood and anxiety symptoms in OUD; co-occurring SUDs with OUD; and post-operative pain management and prevention of OUD. Summary: NIBS interventions, particularly repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and transcranial direct current stimulation have demonstrated preliminary evidence of effectiveness to treat OUD and its associated symptoms.
