Willingness to provide naloxone: Survey of the National Dental Practice-Based Research Network.
Article in Journal of opioid management. 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
aimsTo report findings from a national survey of dentists regarding their -naloxone distribution practices.
designCross-sectional, national electronic survey. SETTINGS: United States, National Dental Practice-Based Research Network (National Dental PBRN).
participantsA national sample of 790 dentist members of the National Dental PBRN in active clinical practice.
main outcome measuresThe Substance Use Disorders Screening (SUDS) survey assessed dentists' willingness to distribute naloxone to adult patients. SUDS survey data were merged with existing National Dental PBRN Enrollment Questionnaire data regarding practitioner's demographics and practice characteristics.
resultsA minority of dentists (8.8 percent) reported currently distributing -naloxone in their practice. Nearly half of the remaining respondents reported being either very willing (n = 121; 16.9 percent) or moderately willing (n = 235; 32.9 percent) to distribute naloxone in the future. Current distribution and future willingness were associated with younger practitioner age. Future willingness to distribute naloxone is presented as a function of additional practice and practitioner characteristics and was associated with self-reported frequency of screening, counseling, and referring for substance use disorders.
conclusionsYounger dentists and those practicing in government settings were more likely to be current distributors of naloxone, likely a result of intentional -programing currently implemented in dental school and government practice -settings to increase naloxone education and distribution. Nearly half of the dentists not currently distributing naloxone indicated a willingness to distribute naloxone in the future, and current findings aid in the identification of opportunities to scale outreach, training, and practice supports for those dental practices willing to serve as distribution points for their patients.
