Primary Care Patients With Opioid Use Disorder Symptoms: Initiation and Engagement in Treatment With Medicine.
Article in Annals of family medicine, 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
purposeThere is a critical need to treat opioid use disorder (OUD) in primary care. We describe the incidence of OUD medication treatment among primary care patients who reported opioid use and moderate or severe symptoms of substance use disorder (SUD), as defined by the

resultsAmong 80 (5%) patients with moderate symptoms, 8 (10%) initiated and 6 (8%) remained engaged with medication treatment. These patients were significantly more likely to initiate (
conclusionMost primary care patients reporting opioid use and moderate or severe SUD symptoms did not initiate OUD treatment, but most who initiated remained engaged. Screening and assessment alone is insufficient to result in adequate OUD medication treatment.
