1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The objective of this article was to conduct a treatment development study to examine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of treating depressed, overweight/obese adolescents using both an exercise regimen and a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) protocol modified to address aspects of healthy living and nutrition (CBT plus healthy lifestyle; CBT-HL). A randomized controlled repeated measures design was used to test the hypothesis that CBT-HL would lead to greater reductions in depressed mood and weight compared to CBT for Depression Only (CBT). Participants (n=33; 24 in CBT-HL condition) included 33 adolescents (median age 15, 73% female, 61% white, 36% Hispanic) who met DSM-IV criteria for Current Major Depressive Episode (MDE) and had BMI ≥ 85th percentile. CBT-HL was found to be feasible to implement with most adolescents. Both conditions resulted in improvement in depressed mood. The CBT-HL protocol was more effective in stabilizing weight status as assessed by BMI. Percent time spent in MVPA was increased at 12 weeks for adolescents in CBT-HL compared to those in CBT. The CBT-HL protocol was acceptable to most, but not all, adolescents, and resulted in an improvement in depressed mood as well as stabilization of weight status. A larger study to test efficacy and moderators of treatment outcome is necessary to better understand which adolescents would benefit most from the increased demands of exercise and adhering to nutrition recommendations in addition to standard CBT for depression. Revisions to the treatment protocol to support weight loss, not just stabilization, are also suggested.
