Article in Journal of social work practice in the addictions, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Mobile health (mHealth) applications (apps) are increasingly applied to address substance misuse and related concerns. We explored mHealth app use and usability among Medicaid recipients with substance misuse who receive recovery support and treatment services (N=163). At one-month, compared to those who did not utilize the app at all, app use was associated with reduced barriers to treatment. Logging into the app but not using the e-coach feature was associated with reduced anxiety and decreased likelihood of opioid use, while use of the app's e-coach feature was associated with reduced stimulant and other illicit substances. For Medicaid-insured individuals with substance misuse, mHealth apps may reduce treatment barriers and supplement safety net treatment services.
