Application of Evidence-Based Treatment in Community Mental Health Settings: Examining EBT Delivery Duration and Client Discharge.
Article in The journal of behavioral health services & research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Characterizing community mental health (CMH) treatment duration and discharge is an important step toward understanding how to better meet client needs. This report describes patterns of treatment duration and discharge among clinicians participating in a state-funded evidence-based treatment (EBT) training initiative. After training and consultation, clinicians (N = 376) reported on treatment duration and discharge for their "most complete case." On average, clinicians delivered 12.4 sessions (SD = 5.1) of the treatment. After completing treatment, half of clinicians (58.7%) continued with regularly scheduled therapy, either using EBT elements or switching to supportive therapy. Clinicians who continued with regularly scheduled therapy delivered treatment in approximately the same number of sessions. Results revealed that CMH clinicians often do not discontinue therapy after completing a treatment protocol. These findings suggest it may be essential to better understand clinician decision-making around applying EBTs to their caseloads.
