How policy problems and solutions travel in the scientific literature: An international scientometric analysis of the French Model of opioid use disorder care.

US studies, by focusing on less stringent buprenorphine regulation as the primary solution of concern, have constructed opioid-related harms as a problem of restrictive regulations for buprenorphine. This selective focus on regulation, as opposed to other aspects of the French Model elucidated in the index article such as changes pertaining to the values and financing that structure health service delivery, represents an important missed opportunity for evidence-informed policy learning across jurisdictions.
