Integration of Clozapine-associated Harm Obsessions into Cognitive Behavioral Conceptualization and Treatment Planning for Thought Broadcasting: A Case Study.
Article in Journal of psychiatric practice, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesAs many as 30% of individuals with a schizophrenia spectrum disorder experience obsessive-compulsive symptoms (OCS). Clozapine has demonstrated superior efficacy for the treatment of medication-resistant schizophrenia but it is also associated with an increased risk for OCS. Because pharmacologic management of clozapine-related OCS can be particularly challenging, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) should be considered. Nevertheless, there are few detailed accounts of CBT for OCS and schizophrenia.
methodsThe authors describe the interdisciplinary outpatient care of a client who had a 25-year history of schizoaffective disorder, bipolar type, and OCS. The case formulation was used to guide interventions to target core schemas of being dangerous and defective. The case study describes the cognitive behavioral formulation, treatment targets, treatment course, and functional and symptom response.
resultsThe client received 21 sessions of a formulation-based CBT for psychosis protocol, which included a 6-session course of exposure with response prevention, consisting of imaginal and in vivo exposure to multiple salient harm stimuli. Reduced ratings of distress and a 50% reduction in OCS suggest that habituation and inhibitory learning occurred. The treatment of OCS resulted in the complete resolution of thought broadcasting. Subsequently, the client was more successful in his efforts to adhere to an action schedule. LIMITATIONS: The use of both the treatment approach described in this clinical case report and contemporaneous medication management preclude comment on the mechanism(s) of the therapeutic change observed in this case.
conclusionsThis report presents a means of conceptualizing the interplay between thought broadcasting and harm obsessions and discusses considerations in identifying and treating individuals with similar comorbid conditions, particularly in the context of clozapine treatment for medication-resistant psychosis.
