Factors associated with recovery from posttraumatic stress disorder in combat veterans: The role of deployment mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).
Article in Rehabilitation psychology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveExamine factors associated with recovery from posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and evaluate the role of deployment mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) in the relationship between PTSD recovery and functional outcomes.
methodPost 9/11 combat veterans with lifetime history of PTSD (
resultsAnalyses of variance (ANOVA) results revealed significant differences in most behavioral health outcomes based on PTSD recovery, with participants who have recovered from PTSD showing less severe neurobehavioral and depressive symptoms, better sleep quality, less functional pain interference, and higher quality of life. No differences were found in cognitive functioning between those who have recovered from PTSD and those who have not. History of deployment mTBI did not significantly moderate the relationship between PTSD recovery and most functional and cognitive outcomes with the exception of 2 measures of processing speed. Specifically, among participants with history of deployment mTBI, those who have recovered from PTSD displayed better cognitive functioning than those who have not. Additionally, participants who have not recovered from PTSD had higher levels of blast exposure during military service.
conclusionsPTSD recovery was associated with better psychological functioning and higher quality of life, but not with objective cognitive functioning. Deployment mTBI history moderated only the relationship between PTSD recovery status and tests of processing speed. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved).
