Implementation Strategies to Enhance Safety-Net Hospitals' Adoption of Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment for Opioid Use Disorder.
Article in Journal of general internal medicine, 2026. 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
backgroundTo support adoption of Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) for opioid use disorder (OUD), hospitals are likely to benefit from implementation strategies that are responsive to their unique environments. Yet there remains a gap in knowledge regarding which implementation strategies are needed to support SBIRT implementation and sustainment for OUD within safety-net hospitals.
objectivesTo obtain expert consensus on the most effective implementation strategies to enhance the adoption of SBIRT for OUD in safety-net hospitals. DESIGN AND
settingA modified Delphi study, with two rounds of online surveys.
participantsEighteen US-based experts from within the fields of OUD-focused health services research, addiction medicine, and emergency medicine. MAIN MEASURES: The primary outcome was consensus on 35 potential SBIRT implementation strategies, ranked on a 5-point Likert scale across three domains: Effectiveness, Feasibility, Impact on Equity. Consensus across respondents within both rounds was evaluated using the interquartile range. If the IQR was 1 or below on the 0 to 5 Likert scale, consensus was considered obtained. Items with a median value of 4 or higher were considered high priority.
resultsFollowing two rounds of ranking, consensus was achieved for all survey items. In total, 62.85% strategies (n = 22) were rated as High in Effectiveness, 20.0% (n = 7) were rated as High in Feasibility, and 11.42% (n = 4) were rated High in Impact on Equity. Seven strategies ranked high in two areas, with three-Identify and Prepare Champions, Identify Early Adopters, and Conduct Educational Meetings-ranked as highly effective and feasible.
conclusionsThis consensus process provides strong support for implementation strategies that can be used to guide future practice and study. This work can encourage implementation of SBIRT for OUD within safety-net hospitals, and set the stage for future studies to evaluate the impact of different implementation strategies on patient outcomes following SBIRT.
