Implementation outcomes of video-observed oral fluid self-collection for drug testing in substance use disorder treatment: a pilot study.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2026. 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
Introduction: The integration of telehealth into clinical care has increased access to substance use disorder (SUD) treatment. However, drug screen monitoring has largely remained tied to in-person visits, preventing a fully virtual workflow. We evaluated the acceptability, appropriateness, feasibility, and usability of video-observed oral fluid (VOOF) self-collection as an approach to address this implementation gap. Methods: Participants receiving SUD treatment in outpatient ( Results: Most participants had multiple SUDs ( Discussion: This early-stage pilot found that VOOF self-collection was generally acceptable, appropriate, and feasible among individuals with SUD in real-world care settings. Usability scores were below average, with technical challenges related to video recording and upload likely contributing. Integrating VOOF within digital treatment platforms may streamline the user experience and improve usability while better aligning drug screen monitoring with the growth of telehealth in SUD treatment. This approach may benefit individuals experiencing transportation barriers and those in rural areas who live significant distances from testing sites.
