Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT) goes digital: Randomized pilot trial for families of individuals with opioid use problems.
Trial report in Experimental and clinical psychopharmacology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT) for concerned significant others (CSOs) of individuals with substance use problems (IP) is an efficacious in-person intervention warranting broader dissemination. However, previous web-based delivery studies have not achieved the increases in IP treatment entry seen with in-person studies. We developed two online CRAFT programs closely aligned with the in-person CRAFT protocol and pilot tested their efficacy and feasibility. We block randomized 45 CSOs (15/arm) of IPs with opioid use problems to receive 12 weeks of web-based peer support (PEER) or weekly web-based CRAFT modules with videoconference coaching either in groups (CRAFT-G) or individually (CRAFT-I). Though not statistically significant, more CSOs reported new IP treatment entry in CRAFT-G (76.9%; OR = 5.00, 95% CI [0.03, 3.41], p = .056) and CRAFT-I (72.7%, OR = 4.01, 95% CI [-0.23, 3.20], p = .106) compared to PEER (40.0%), and more CRAFT-G participants reported their IP was in medication treatment at 12 weeks compared to PEER (76.9% vs. 40.0%, OR = 5.00, 95% CI [0.19, 0.98], p = .11). CRAFT-G had significantly improved physical health (p = .025) and mood (p = .015), and both CRAFT-G (p = .018) and CRAFT-I (p = .012) showed increased relationship satisfaction compared to PEER. CSO engagement was similar across conditions. Results must be interpreted cautiously as the study was exploratory and small, and some results were not statistically significant. This pilot study is the first to suggest that online CRAFT programs have the potential to replicate in-person effects, possibly because it did not shorten or significantly alter the in-person protocol when adapting it to a digital format.
