Interpersonal Psychotherapy for PTSD: Treating Trauma without Exposure.
Article in Journal of psychotherapy integration, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06279598 (PT-STRESS Study), which is not on this map. Cited by 8 papers.
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.
PT-STRESS Study: A Two-phase RCT Aimed at Predicting Treatment Success and Dealing With Non-response in the Treatment of PTSD; by Alternating Between Two Trauma-focused Treatments (EMDR/PE) or by Switching to Interpersonal Therapy (IPT)

Abstract
Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT) is a time-limited, diagnosis-targeted psychotherapy originally developed for the treatment of major depression. Research studies have repeatedly demonstrated its efficacy in treating mood disorders and other psychiatric disorders over the past forty years. As IPT is a life-event based treatment that focuses on improving interpersonal functioning, it seemed natural to adapt it for the treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), a life-event based illness that affects interpersonal functioning. Preliminary data suggest that IPT has equal efficacy in alleviating PTSD symptoms as Prolonged Exposure, the best tested exposure-based treatment. We describe the principles of IPT and its modifications for treating PTSD. A case illustration describes a patient with PTSD related to military trauma. The authors discuss their reluctance to integrate IPT for PTSD with other psychotherapeutic perspectives.
