The impact of comorbid diagnoses on the course of posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms in residents of battered women's shelters.

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
objectiveThe current investigation sought to explore the impact of the comorbidities of substance use disorder (SUD), major depressive disorder (MDD), and borderline personality disorder (BPD) on the trajectory of intimate partner violence (IPV)-related posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms across a 6-month follow-up period in IPV survivors who seek shelter. Research has found significant comorbidity of SUD, MDD, and BPD with PTSD (see Green et al., 2006; Kessler, Sonnega, Bromet, Hughes, & Nelson, 1995; Pagura et al., 2010); however, little to no research has explored these relationships in this unique population over time.
methodA sample of 147 residents of battered women's shelters completed study measures at baseline, 1 week, and 3 and 6 months following shelter stay. Participants completed measures assessing for demographics, abuse, and Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (4th edition, text revision) diagnoses.
resultsResults of latent growth modeling with the time-invariant covariates of SUD, MDD, and BPD yielded a significant effect of SUD (β = .002, p = .007) on the slope of IPV-related PTSD symptoms controlling for IPV victimization. Significant effects were not identified for BPD (β = .001, p > .05) or MDD (β = .002, p > .05). Results suggest IPV survivors with SUD demonstrated less improvement in PTSD symptoms over 6 months after they left shelter as compared to women without SUD.
conclusionFindings emphasize the deleterious effects of SUD, above and beyond MDD and BPD, on IPV-related PTSD and highlight the need for assessment and treatment of SUD and PTSD simultaneously in residents of battered women's shelters. Clinical Impact Statement: Findings suggest the need to go beyond standard shelter services to more effectively address and treat co-occurring SUD-PTSD in IPV survivors.
