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

objectiveWe tested the relation of perceived criticism (PC) from a parent or spouse/romantic partner to outcome of psychotherapy for panic disorder (PD).

methodParticipants were 130 patients with PD (79% with agoraphobia) who received 24 twice-weekly sessions of panic-focused psychodynamic psychotherapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, or applied relaxation therapy. Patients were predominantly White (75%), female (64%), and non-Hispanic (85%). At baseline, Week 5 of treatment, termination, and at 6- and 12-month follow-up, patients rated PC from the relative with whom they lived. Independent evaluators assessed the severity of PD at baseline, Weeks 1, 5, and 9 of treatment, termination, and the 2 follow-up points. Data were analyzed with piecewise (treatment phase, follow-up phase) latent growth curve modeling.

resultsThe latent intercept for PC at baseline predicted the latent slope for panic severity in the follow-up (p = .04) but not the active treatment phase (p = .50). In contrast, the latent intercept for PD severity at baseline did not predict the latent slope on PC in either phase (ps ≥ .29). Nor did the slopes of PC and PD severity covary across treatment (p = .31) or follow-up (p = .13). Indeed, PC did not change significantly across treatment (p = .45), showing the stability of this perception regardless of significant change in severity of patients' PD (p < .001).

conclusionsBecause PC predicts worse long-term treatment outcome for PD, study findings argue for interventions to address perceived criticism in treatment. (PsycINFO Database Record
