Evaluating the impact of community‐based treatment options on methamphetamine use: findings from the Methamphetamine Treatment Evaluation Study (MATES)

Open access

Abstract

Aims: To evaluate the impact of community‐based drug treatment on methamphetamine use using inverse probability of treatment‐weighted (IPTW) estimators to derive treatment effects. Design: A longitudinal prospective cohort study with follow‐ups at 3 months, 1 year and 3 years. Treatment effects were derived by comparing groups at follow‐up. IPTW estimators were used to adjust for pre‐treatment differences between groups. Setting: S ydney and B risbane, A ustralia. Participants: Participants were methamphetamine users entering community‐based detoxification (n = 112) or residential rehabilitation (n = 248) services and a quasi‐control group of methamphetamine users (n = 101) recruited from the community. Measurements: Frequency of methamphetamine use between interviews (no use, less than weekly, 1–2 days per week, 3+ days per week), continuous abstinence from methamphetamine use, past month methamphetamine use and methamphetamine dependence. Findings: Detoxification did not reduce methamphetamine use at any follow‐up relative to the quasi‐control group. Relative to quasi‐control and detoxification groups combined, residential rehabilitation produced large reductions in the frequency of methamphetamine use at 3 months [odds ratio (OR) = 0.23, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.15–0.36, P < 0.001), with a marked attenuation of this effect at 1 year (OR 0.62, 95% CI 0.40–0.97, P = 0.038) and 3 years (OR = 0.71, 95% CI 0.42–1.19, P = 0.189). The greatest impact was for abstinence: for every 100 residential rehabilitation clients there was a gain of 33 being continuously abstinent at 3 months, with this falling to 14 at 1 year and 6 at 3 years. Conclusions: Community‐based residential rehabilitation may produce a time‐limited decrease in methamphetamine use, while detoxification alone does not appear to do so.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
