Integrating brain and behavior: evaluating adolescents' response to a cannabis intervention.

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
Client language (change talk [CT] and counterchange talk [CCT]) is gaining increasing support as an active ingredient of psychosocial interventions. Preliminary work with adults suggests that there may be a neural basis for this. With a diverse sample of adolescent cannabis users, we evaluated the influence of CT and CCT on blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) response during an fMRI cannabis cue-exposure paradigm. We also investigated how BOLD activation related to treatment outcomes. Adolescent cannabis users (N = 43; 83.7% male; 53.5% Hispanic; M age = 16 years) were presented with CT and CCT derived from their prescan intervention session during the fMRI paradigm. Additionally, BOLD activation during CT (vs. CCT) was tested as a predictor of 1-month follow-up cannabis use behavior (frequency of cannabis use, cannabis problems, cannabis dependence). We observed a significant interaction, with greater activation during CT (vs. CCT) during the cannabis (but not control) cues in several areas key to self-referential processes (uncorrected p < 0.001; medial frontal gyrus, insula). Furthermore, BOLD activation during CT (vs. CCT) during cannabis (but not control) cues in areas that underlie introspection (posterior cingulate, precuneus) was significantly related to youths' 1-month follow-up cannabis use behavior (frequency of cannabis use, cannabis problems, cannabis dependence; uncorrected p < 0.001). These data indicate a unique interaction pattern, whereby CT (vs. CCT) during the cannabis (but not control) cues was associated with significantly greater activation in brain areas involved in introspection. Further, this activation was related to significantly better treatment outcomes for youth.
