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

BACKGROUND AND

objectivesPrimary care physicians are well-positioned to be at the forefront of screening for and treating substance use disorders (SUDs). In addition, the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education has deemed addiction training a common program requirement for all residency programs. With less than one-third of family medicine residency programs providing addiction training, understanding best practices for addiction training is important.

methodsWe interviewed 12 faculty at family medicine residency programs across the country who have a strong reputation for addiction training. We analyzed interview transcripts thematically to identify best practices for creating and providing addiction curricula.

resultsCreating an addiction curriculum originates with an addiction champion who garners the support of clinical leadership and provides faculty development that is augmented by a multidisciplinary team of providers, often grant-supported. Coupling didactic learning with a wide array of experiential opportunities is important, particularly allowing residents to care for patients with SUDs longitudinally in their primary care clinics. Residency programs should anticipate stigma and associated resistance from clinic staff and providers and should work collaboratively to mitigate these.

conclusionsComprehensive and robust addiction training in family medicine residency training should include didactic and experiential learning opportunities with a well-supported and philosophically aligned clinical and educational culture that values caring for patients with SUDs.
