An Alternative Approach to Low-Dose Buprenorphine Induction in Pregnancy and Postpartum.
Article in O&G open, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Low-dose buprenorphine induction, unlike traditional methods, does not require that individuals experience at least moderate withdrawal before initiation. This technique has been widely used and studied in the general population; however, research in pregnancy is limited. We aimed to evaluate obstetric and neonatal outcomes after low-dose buprenorphine induction. In this retrospective case series, we reviewed all cases of low-dose induction during pregnancy or within 6 weeks postpartum at an urban academic medical center over a 3-year period. Nine patients started buprenorphine using this method, and all but one completed induction. There was a high rate of treatment retention and no apparent associated adverse neonatal events. Four individuals are in sustained remission and currently parenting. Though further research is needed, low-dose buprenorphine induction appears effective in the obstetric population.
