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.

Abstract

backgroundRecovery management checkups done in primary care settings (RMC-PCs) can be an effective intervention to link individuals with substance use disorders (SUDs) to treatment and help them stay engaged with treatment. There is reason to question, however, whether RMC-PCs are as effective for those who have been recently incarcerated or for those holding a minoritized racial identity, such as people of color.

methodsWe examined data from a United States-based randomized controlled trial of RMC-PCs compared to a control condition among primary care patients with SUDs (N = 266).

resultsMultilevel analyses of 4-wave data (3, 6, 9, and 12 months after baseline) indicated that RMC-PCs were more effective than the control condition, especially early in the 12-month study period. The relative effectiveness of RMC-PCs was stronger, however, for participants with fewer days in jail just prior to baseline as well as for White participants (versus participants of color).

conclusionsThese findings suggest the utility of examining potential mediators of these moderated effects in future research as well as tailoring SUD interventions to better meet the needs of these populations.
