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

backgroundPrimary care providers (PCPs) are well-suited to identify candidates for substance use disorder (SUD) treatment and to provide patients with necessary longitudinal services and support. However, training for PCPs on how to diagnose and treat SUD is often lacking. The Primary Care Training and Education in Addiction Medicine (PC-TEAM) program is a one-year in-person and virtual hybrid program that provides more than 50 h of training and focuses on SUD-specific content.

methodsThis article describes the PC-TEAM training program and presents baseline and post-fellowship data on enrolled fellows (n = 88) to evaluate program effectiveness including changes in participant attitudes, knowledge, and comfort level in treating substance use in the primary care setting. Area Deprivation Index (ADI) scores were calculated by practice location of fellows to determine disadvantage across census tract groups.

resultsLarge effect sizes in fellows' comfort levels were observed in caring for patients with SUDs and employing motivational interviewing for SUD (Cohen's

conclusionTNT Fellows experienced an increased overall knowledge and level of comfort in delivering treatment to individuals with SUDs. Fellows typically worked in underserved areas serving vulnerable populations. The PC-TEAM training program provides the opportunity to further develop skills related to evidence-based screening, assessment, and treatment of SUDs.
