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

backgroundIntolerance of uncertainty (IU) has been proposed as a transdiagnostic risk and maintenance factor underlying various forms of psychopathology. Few studies, however, have examined IU in hoarding disorder (HD)-a condition characterized by excessive urges to acquire and difficulties discarding possessions-core symptoms that may be fueled by inflated IU. We examined cross-sectional relationships between IU and different symptom facets of HD, controlling for anxiety and depression severity, and explored whether pre-treatment levels of IU predicted response to exposure-based treatment for HD.

methodFifty-seven individuals seeking treatment for HD completed baseline measures of hoarding symptoms, IU, anxiety and depression. Participants then completed 26 sessions of group exposure-based treatment for HD with or without compensatory cognitive training. Hoarding symptoms were assessed following the final treatment session to index treatment response.

resultsIU was positively and significantly associated with greater urges to acquire and greater difficulties discarding possessions, beyond shared variance accounted for by anxiety and depression. IU was not significantly related to clutter symptom severity. Higher pre-treatment IU predicted increased odds of treatment non-response.

conclusionsElevated IU is associated with specific hoarding symptom clusters and may be an important target for HD treatment.
