Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Introduction. This study examines outcomes of urine tests in methadone and in suboxone patients and differences in their criminal history. Method. Criminal history data and 10 urine tests for benzodiazepines, cocaine, opiates, and oxycodone were recorded for each of 103 Canadian patients (67 men, 36 women) undergoing opiate substitution treatment: 75.7% were on methadone and 24.3% on suboxone. Those on methadone did not differ from those on suboxone with respect to age (t-test, p = ns) and gender (χ2 test, p = ns). Result. In this sample, (43.3%) had known criminal history, 35.3% were convicted of their crime in a court of law, 31.4% spent time in jail, 10.0% were involved in violent crimes, and 16.0% were charged with driving under influence of alcohol or illicit drugs. Methadone patients did not differ from those on suboxone in their criminal history (χ2 tests, p = ns). Compared to suboxone patients, those on methadone more frequently tested positive for cocaine (t = 2.5, df = 96.2, p < .05) but no significant differences were noted for other illicit substances. Conclusion. Methadone and suboxone patients did not differ in their criminal history. The treatment outcomes of methadone patients were less satisfactory with respect to unclean urine tests for cocaine.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
